For the msg that i wanted to show the "guests" i just used IF code again and specified the Guest usergroup and wrote the msg so it works now :)

Cool!

Nice "think outside the box" - solution - cool ..

Ok, I was playing around a bit..

If your template would look like

Code:

$stylevar[htmldoctype]

<html dir="$stylevar[textdirection]" lang="$stylevar[languagecode]">

<head>

$headinclude

<title>$vboptions[bbtitle]</title>

</head>

<body>



$header

$navbar

<if condition="$bbuserinfo[userid]">

<center>

<iframe src="http://www.google.com" width="80%" height="400"></iframe></center>

<else />                

<table class="tborder" cellpadding="6" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="70%" align="center">

<tr>

        <td class="tcat">vBulletin Message</td>



</tr>

<tr>

        <td class="panelsurround" align="center">

        <div class="panel">

                <div align="left">

        

                                

                        <!-- main error message -->

                        

                        

                        <blockquote><p><p><strong>$bbuserinfo[username]</strong>, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:</p>



<ol>

        <li>Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?</li>



        <li>If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.</li>

</ol>



<div align="right">

        <a href="login.php?do=logout&amp;logouthash=b79dddc3a894bac9fea040e270f00ee7">Log Out</a>

        <a href="index.php?">Home</a>

</div></p></blockquote>

                        

                                

                        <!-- / main error message -->                        

                

                

                </div>

        </div>



        <!--

        <div style="margin-top:6px">

                <input type="submit" class="button" value="Go Back" accesskey="s" onclick="history.back(1); return false" />

        </div>

        -->

        </td>

</tr>

</table>                

                </if>

$footer

</body>

</html>

Which would look like

You can also remove the $bbuserinfo[username] and replace it with something you like or whatever ...

Since I am using in the example above <if condition="$bbuserinfo[userid]"> - it will give out an error regardless of the usergoupid

utw, nice one!

thanks a lot for this one. I am going to use this custom page thing on my vbulletin site.

Why doesn't vBulletin document things like this -- it's a huge time-saver.

I've got to echo what others have said here - this is an outstanding integrated feature of vBulletin that deserves a LOT more attention. Finding this thread has saved me a few hours of coding and testing, and like they say, time is money. Spread the word on this great feature, guys, and many thanks to utw for bringing this up!!! :)

How would you change it so in the little nested directory thing showing where you are has a different name than just the template name. Using the example in the first post. It would just say that you were in test2. And that looks a little weird.

Edit: The reason why I am asking is that I want the name to be two separate words, and you can't have spaces...so yeah.

Added to vbulletin.com too :)

Thanks guys for the great responses :) :D

Lets call the template custom_Jeordie015

Here the result :

Added instructions (on request) how to use vbadavanced for custom pages and also how to use permissions.

error_reporting(E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE);



// ##################### DEFINE IMPORTANT CONSTANTS #######################

// change the line below to the actual filename without ".php" extention.

// the reason for using actual filename without extention as a value of this constant is to ensure uniqueness of the value throughout every PHP file of any given vBulletin installation.



define('THIS_SCRIPT', 'test');  



// #################### PRE-CACHE TEMPLATES AND DATA ######################

// get special phrase groups

$phrasegroups = array();



// get special data templates from the datastore

$specialtemplates = array();



// pre-cache templates used by all actions

$globaltemplates = array(

        // change the lines below to the list of actual templates used in the script

        'test',

);



// pre-cache templates used by specific actions

$actiontemplates = array();



// ########################## REQUIRE BACK-END ############################

require_once('./global.php');



// #################### HARD CODE JAVASCRIPT PATHS ########################

$headinclude = str_replace('"clientscript', '"' . $vbulletin->options['bburl'] . '/clientscript', $headinclude);



// ########################################################################

// ######################### START MAIN SCRIPT ############################

// ########################################################################



$navbits = array();  

// change the line below to contain whatever you want to show in the navbar (title of your custom page)

$navbits[$parent] = 'Test Page';



$navbits = construct_navbits($navbits);

eval('$navbar = "' . fetch_template('navbar') . '";');



// change the line below to contain the name of the actual main output template used in your script

eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('test') . '");');



?>

Check the comments within the code to see what you need to change ..

Basicially the colored code.

Here you can specify the title using more than one word.

Now simply call the php file, like http://<domain>/<php file>
