thanks will give it a try later tomorrow and will report here later for sure.

thanks for your help and support, really appreciated.

I don't know if I misunderstood, but what I wanted was my members had to choose "yes" to see a specific forum. I still want them to see all the other forums, however, it caused my members to all see no forums at all, til they answered yes, did I do something wrong?

I only entered one ID, the ID of the forum you need to check off "yes" to see it.

Hi Kalina,

I had a bug in my code, I am sorry for the mess up, please try the latest version and let me know how it goes. Thanks.

i gave it a shot, but the problem is it doesn't override the usergroup permission, which is cool, but the main problem is, i based all my forum sections on usergroup permission, will give it a try to mess things up whenever my apache server is ready for any further testing before changing anything major in my forums construction.

Will report here later, again ;)

I'll need to regenerate it so it has the 15 options you'd need because there's a bug in the attachment I posted for you early..

ok, please do as soon as possible as i was planning on testing it later today.

you'll have to wait for my lunch break.. about 3.5 hours

Could you try this one?

ok will give it a shot, probably tomorrow though, too late now.

Thanks for the awesome support

hey FCI, i've tried it and looks it is working perfectly, problem is i am receiving requests from new registrants to add some countries i didn't even know they exist. The requesters claim if their country is added, they'll tell their friends about the forums and stuff which would be great for building up traffic a bit more. My point is, what i need shouldn't be having a limit of 15, may be it'd reach someday to a full country list.
I am seriously considering switching the forums to work on this hack, but i have to ask a couple of questions though before taking this step:
- now if i ran my forums on the 15 fields version, will there be any sort of trouble updating it to the 25 field version "may be later on", like resetting every field choice to its forums AGAIN?!
- is there a clue about new releases of this patch adding fields with simple mods instead of you reconstructing the patch every time a field is added?!

finally, i am very sorry for my late feedback, getting married soon and some preparations should be taken care of.
