Check if user has permission to post in forum

I'm looking for a conditional to check if a user has permission to post in a certain forum.

My goal is to show a message to members where the 'post thread' button would be for users who don't have permission to post in a certain forum.

One of my forum's sections is a paid section for upgraded members only, and I'd like to show a 'you must upgrade your account to post here' message.

You might be able to use $show['newthreadlink'].

That's what the template already uses. I'm using vb 4.1.12.

It says if condition shownewthreadlink I was thinking underneath that if statement I could add something, like an additional statement to would show the message I described.

Can I just add a ! to the condition like !$showthreadlink in an additional if statement underneath?

You could do that, or add an else to the condition, like:

Code:

<vb:if condition="$show['newthreadlink']">

Show Link

<vb:else />

Show message

</vb:if>

either way you get the same result.
