Permission code

[anuanu]

What would the code be to not allow unregistered users go to my custom pages? Either template code or html will work.

Thanks in advance.

PHP:
if($vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] == 0)
{
//user isn't signed (error message goes here)
}

Template:

<if condition="$bbuserinfo[userid] == 0">User isn't currently signed in</if>

I use a slightly different code. I must have gotten it from vb somewhere, cuz I don't just make these up. :)

if (!isset($vbulletin->userinfo['userid']) OR $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] == 0)
{
print_no_permission();
}

That gives a No Permission Page to the user.

Or

if(!$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'])

Go with Boofo's I'd say :p

In a template: <if condition="!$bbuserinfo['userid']">....</if>

I didn't see the 'template or html' part of that message. Duh on me. ;)

Thx guys for all the help, I would have to say that i like Lynne's code the most. Mostly cause i dont want a custom error message i just need to prevent unregistered users to access a custom page i created and getting the defualt message is perfect.

The first bit is redundant as if a variable is not set, it will return false or 0 anyway :p.

If it is not set, it will NOT return 0. If it is not set how should PHP even know it is numeric?

NULL returns false as a boolean value, 0 returns false as a boolean value. Therefore they are pretty much identical in an if() expression :p

[Marco van Herwaarden]

That only works if you make a boolean comparison. ;)

Will work in both NULL and 0:
if(!$vbulletin->userinfo['userid'])

Will not work when not set:
if($vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] == 0)

[Dismounted]

Nope, as "==" means is equal to (and does not check type). A null value is equal to "false" and "zero" when comparing with "==". I think you're mixing up "==" with "===" (equal to and equal in type).

Try:
<?php
if ($test == 0)
{
echo Works;
}
else
{
echo Nope;
}
?>

[Marco van Herwaarden]

My mistake, you are correct on this.
