Custom page for guests

Hey guys,
Is there a way to display a custom template to all guests, no matter what pages on the site they try to visit? I want to display a login form (nothing else) to all guests. If they aren't logged in, they won't be able to see anything except the login form.

I tried creating a plugin and the hook I used was global_start, rest was the simple stuff, just code for the display of a custom template wrapped in the usergroup conditional.. But it didn't work.

P.S. Forum and attachment permissions aren't the problem (I'd set them to 'no' for guests after I finish this), I just don't want to show the login form within the forum's style. I have the custom login form finished as well...

Thanks... :)

Post the plugin code you wrote that didn't work so we can try it ourselves and see what the issue was.

global_start hook...

PHP Code:


		
			
if ($vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid'] == 1)
{
eval('$lolwtf= "' . fetch_template('lolwtf') . '";');
}

Nothing happens. But yeah, I'm pretty new to PHP, so you shouldn't be surprised if I messed up something, lol...

Why not just:

PHP Code:


		
			
if ($vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid'] == 1)
{
    print_no_permission();
}

In regards to what you wrote... you evaled a template and assigned it to a variable and then what? If you wanted to eval something and spit it out, you'd want:

PHP Code:


		
			
if ($vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid'] == 1)
{
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('lolwtf') . '");');
}

Lol... Thanks a bunch Lynne! :D The second code works as a charm...

The "eval" makes me think this is a 3.x solution.

My attempt at a 4.x update: (Template names have been changed to protect the idiotic)

Code:

if ($vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid'] == 1)

{

$templater = vB_Template::create('my_custom_login');

print_output( $templater->render());

}

Still hooking at global_start.
I have a full-page template called my_custom_login.

So my attempt works in that non-logged in users are shown that template.
But I have two issues:
1) Logged in users aren't getting any stylesheets.
2) I haven't figured out how to pass name/password to login from the custom template.
