using VBulletin Account for hidden html-Page

[Tobias Honscha]

Hi !

I dont know if there is a hack already or this is a feature of the vbulletin system :

We are running a coin-database system also for guests. The server load is getting higher an higher. Is there a possibility that I limit the access of a PHP or HTML - page only to registered VBulletin users ?

Thanks in advance and greetings from germany,

Yes. You can include global.php and then check their userid. If they are not logged in, you could redirect them to the standard no permission template.

as I am new to php-programming - can anyone describe how to do so ?

[amykhar]

I believe you want this


require "global.php";
if ($bbuserinfo[userid] == 0)
show_nopermission();

Thank you very much - I think this is the code I need.
Although I inserted your PHP-code users can access the file without loggin in . What am I doing wrong ?
This is the script I am currently using :

<?php
error_reporting(7);
require("./global.php");

if ($bbuserinfo[userid] == 0)
{ show_nopermission();}
?>

.. and here comes the html - code which has to be hidden for unregistered users.

I believe the rest of it needs to be in an else clause.
