Opt out forum IDs

[utw-Mephisto]

We use this product to show a link for unread posts ... we would like to opt out certain forum IDs .. one solution from the author of this is to disable the search for those forums .. but this is hardly a solution for our forum ...

Does someone got an idea how to opt out forumids when looking into the code ?

Untested, but you'll most likely have to modify the following part of the code:


$xforum_ids = array_keys($vbulletin->forumcache);
foreach ($xforum_ids AS $key => $xforum_id)
{
$xfperms = & $vbulletin->userinfo['forumpermissions']["$xforum_id"];
if (!($xfperms & $vbulletin->bf_ugp_forumpermissions['canview']))
{
unset($xforum_ids["$key"]);
}
}

if (empty($xforum_ids))
{
$xforum_list = "0";
}
else
{
$xforum_list = implode(', ', $xforum_ids);
}


Since that's the part which defines the $xforum_list var that controls the query which counts the unread posts.
