Restrict login to specific userid(s)?

I'm looking for a way to make my boards "read only" rather than turning them off while we're migrating sql to new servers and thought this approach might work. I'm thinking a plugin could be made for global_start that might work after we kill all sessions. Any suggestions on how to do it?

There was a request for Backup Mode that's very old, but it's based on the same issue.

To disable most logins, you could add a plugin to the login_verify_success hook:

Code:

// untested, you need to test it out !!

// 1,2,3 are userids permitted to login



if (!in_array($vbulletin->userinfo['userid'], array(1,2,3)))

{

        $return_value = false;

}

Make sure not to block yourself - use a test account to test it out.

Thanks, I tried it out on a test board and it didn't block userids I specified from logging in.

You could maybe do it a different way. Add a conditional in your template which prevents people from seeing your website altogether once logged in.
