Hi MN Mike,

Is it a hidden forum? Have you tried that?
You have to enable the user access masks.

If i remember correctly, as it has been a very long time since I've supported this (ages infact) they should not showup at all if permissions are set correctly, try logging out and seeing if said topics are still showing up

We've recently began testing the migration/upgrade of vB2 to vB3, so far all has proceeded without major difficulty; however we noticed in the upgraded vB3 database 'mYvBindex" is shown within the vB3 "admincp" tool. What's the fastest way to remove those references without reverting to the vb2 database and uninstalling? (our upgrade takes 26 hours due to a 12GB attachment table)

Thanks!

Alright, I just installed this on my forums. I'm running 2.3.5 Problem listed below...

i'm running vbulletin 3.0.7

This is for vB 2.2.8+ not vBulletin 3, if you want a solution for vBulletin 3 checkout vBa CMPS :p

I have spotted a problem with this portal, that is also there in just about every other portal for vBulletin. And I've tried them all and the same problem exist with them also!

During the installation you are asked to upload the "portal index" file to your ROOT directory outside you forums folder. But if you let's say make you forum so it cannot be view by guests. When you visit the portal page (which is located in the ROOT directory). It persumes the LOGON page is located there also. And the small text link on the LOGON page leading to the register page also thinks the register page is then located in your ROOT directory also.

It seems the only solution to this is to place the "portal index" file in your forums directory instead to work around this issue. I have noticed this same problem is there in all other portals advertised here and on vBadvaced if you place your "portal index" file in your ROOT directory and then make your board private to guests to view. Try testing this to see what I mean!!!

How can this be fixed for this perticualr portal I'm using so I can place the index file in the root directory and it will lead a person to the correct logon page located in the forums directory instead of thinking the logon page from the portal is in the root directory.

Seems to be more of a problem when you are not allowing guests to view content than anything else Gary

Yeh thats the problem, I was just messing around and found if you went into the Usergroup settings and made so Guests cannot view the board and forums. When they visit your portal page (located in your root directy were it should be), they are re-directed to the log-on page. Where they can either logon or register. But it persumes the logon page is located in your ROOT directory. Meaning all other links also on that page then will not work because they dont point to your forums folder.

Whats the fix for this so it would re-direct them to the forums folder then to the logon page there?

This same problem also exsist with vBhome, Vbadvanced, CMPS and all other portals I've tried and needs fixing.

But I need the fix for this version though, if you can help please. :nervous:

Don't know, Its been ages since I've even see vB2 code...
