Well I spoke too soon. Although it workds perfect if you manually change users to a primary usergroup, it blocks out "Secondary Usergroups" that are paid subscribers who have legitimate access.

What I'm wondering is if I can simply use the same codes, but instead of print_no_permission, add say three more that say if in a certain usergroup (paid subscribers that listed as registered id:2, and a secondary usergroup, id:35), then grant permission.

For example,

PHP Code:


		
			
if ($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == 9 and $forumid == 95) 

{ 

    grant_permission(); 

}

The "grant_permission" is totally wrong, I just don't know the term. But I'm just wondering how I can have it check userid and "allow" access. Any help is great. Thanks (also, even though the first 3 are disallowing the registered users, the secondary usergroups would have a different id number and should be able to enter). I hope this makes sense.

Easier way would be to do it like this:

PHP Code:


		
			
if ($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == 2 and ($forumid == 73 or $forumid == 45 or $forumid == 95))

{ 

    print_no_permission(); 

}

This was a reply to your previous post, I'll look more into your latest one.

Try this:

PHP Code:


		
			
$membergroups = explode(',',$bbuserinfo[membergroupids]);



if ($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == 2 and ($forumid == 73 or $forumid == 45 or $forumid == 95) and !array_search(X,$membergroups)) 

{ 

    print_no_permission(); 

}

and replace X with the paid subscriber usergroupid. This code will check if the user has a membergroup of the paid subscribers group.

could it be not only no_permission,
but

BIG letters: REgister as well?

Nope, not if I understand you correctly anyhow.

This is a Fantastic hack but I would like it to see it take one step further

I would like it to do what it does now but only if there is X amount of guests in the forum

Say when 10 people(or any #) are guests the script kicks in

Is this possible?

Can this be done in 2.3.4? If so, can someone steer me in the right direction?

Thanks,
Shady

Gary, great hack. Is there a way to turn this off for only one forum? I have a Guest forum that has site features etc that I link to across the site.

Thanks!!!

Replace

PHP Code:


		
			
if ($bbuserinfo['userid'] == 0) 

{ 

    print_no_permission(); 

}

with

PHP Code:


		
			
if ($bbuserinfo['userid'] == 0 and $forumid != X) 

{ 

    print_no_permission(); 

}

Replace X with the guest forum ID :)
