Now I am running 3.7.0 gold

I entered the usergroup ID's on which I want to force style on and then I added the forum ID too.

Now for the usergroups its working fine, but the problem is when I log out, or the "guests" they see that style too, so its not going back to default style for guests you can say.

I did not enter any ID for guest/unreg usergroup in ur style admin options.


So what can the problem be.

This question has been asked a few times: What if you need custom style permissions so that you can control which usergroups see/select what styles? The hack I use is Andreas's Restrict Style to Usergroup hack which he released for v3.5.x. It is because of that hack that this one exists, and I have tested it on v3.5.x, v3.6.x and v3.7.x, and it works for three versions and works fine with my hacks as well.

For instance on my forum I need to use both hacks, as the style I force on my guests and normal members is not selectable nor do I allow them permission to use it, and is also not my default style (all my other styles are child styles of my default one), so without Andreas's hack I would not be able to do this.

But just to let you know that Andreas's hack is unsupported and is not likely to ever be supported, so if you have problems with it, you are on your own.

Works excellent! Is it possible to add a *third or fourth* usergroup & style? Can I simply install a separate instance of this mod? GREAT MOD by the way!! Exactly what I was looking for...
