Time limit deletion of photo's

[drare]

Hi Chuck,

I'ts been a while since I've been here to ask a question to a problem, since the new server we have had no problems, just a few minor hickups.

But I have a question, not a problem. We do not allow members to delete their own photo's, just to avoid members to replace their photo's to often, or delete them when the critics on their photo are not what they want, we are a learning site not so much a show site.

How ever, when I enable the Admin option: Allow users to delete their own images? to Yes the have the ability to unlimited delete their photo's.

Is there a posibility to set a time limit to this, so when a member uploads a photo they have lets say 10-15 minutes time to delete the photo or to replace it with another.
I know this is not a standard option, but can this be done with some extra coding? But where and how to do this is a mysteri to me at the moment, pherhaps an if statement that looks at the upload time or something like that.

Ik hope you are able and willing to help me on this.
Yours sincerly,
Gerard

Gerard anything is possible with coding. The script to do this would be editphoto.php and editphoto.tmpl if you where so included to try something like that.

I thought so Chuck, but for now I haven't got a clue on how to begin, any ideas?

No sorry I do not participate in code modification discussions normally. My job itself is pretty busy enough without participating in things outside support.
