Small but good change there LightBringer :)

Very nice vBindex implimentation too on your site :D

Thank you very much and as cliche` as it may sound NTLDR, I couldn't have done it without you! :) (or your hacks for that matter hehe)

They way it works is it selects all the forumid's from the forumpermission table where canview=0 (ie the user group can't view them) and then in the query it blocks out all the forumids there.

The problem I have just thought of with it is that it may still get threads from child forums if they inherit the permissions of its parent. I'll look into this some more :)

Thanks NTLDR. :) I'll wait patiently for your return! heh

is not as simple as you think.

NTLDR, first off, many thanks for your hacks and especially for your willingness to help all of us. :)

One quick question (someone asked this, but not sure if it was answered), I installed 2.1 RC1. Is there any difference between that and 2.1 RC2? If so, I'll be installing that right away.

The templates have been properly done in RC2, now you can switch off say the latest threads and it doesn't leave a blank <tr>

Also I have changed a fair bit of code in RC2, so it would be at least worth using the new vbindex.php file :)

Indeed it isn't. Currently it hides all threads for forums that have explicitly been set so that users can't view them and that don't just inherit the parents permission. This is the one major thing to work on now :D

Excellent, thank you.

So, I'm assuming I'd just upload the vbindex.php file and not run the vbi_install.php file because I already have 2.1 RC1 running. Is this correct? Or should I uninstall 2.1RC1 and reinstall with vbi_install.php for 2.1 RC2?
