Restrict Style Changes To Specific Usergroups

Author: NTLDR
Version: 1.0.0
Requested By: restless (here)
vB Compatibility: vB3 Gamma, RC1, RC2

Description:

This hack will allow you to restrict users ability to change the board style based on there usergroup, usefull for premium members etc. Note, this will mean members not in these groups will only have access to ONE style, the default board one (or a forum specific one).

File Edits:

In global.php find:

PHP Code:


		
			
// is style in the forum/thread set?

if ($codestyleid)

{

Add before (replace X, Y, Z with the a comma seperated list of the usergroupid's that should have access to the styles):

PHP Code:


		
			
if (!in_array($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'], array(X, Y, Z))) {

    $vboptions['allowchangestyles'] = 0;

}

Yep, I've already got this working. But what would be cool is the ability to enable/disable a specified style on a usergroup basis.

Does this work on vb2 as well? I just tried it on a 2.3.0 but a test user not in a usergroup in the array could change styles. I would love to have this on vb2. If its a slight difference with the above, please let me know. thanks!

would this work?

in member.php:

PHP Code:


		
			
if ($allowchangestyles==1 AND (in_array($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'], array(5, 6, 7))) ) {

    $stylesets=$DB_site->query("SELECT * FROM style WHERE userselect=1 ORDER BY title");

    if ( !isset($bbuserinfo['realstyleid']) ) {

      $bbuserinfo['realstyleid'] = $bbuserinfo['styleid'];

    }

When Kura has released the HTL hack I'll create another version that has an ACP setting, untill then you manually need to enter the code.

Is there a way to modify it to allow only certain usergroups to have access to certain styles?

For example, a selection of premuim styles for members that donate money, and a selection for normal members?

hmm...i was going to add this, the i thought, what happens when their premium membership runs out. they won't be able to access it anymore and it will be left at the last one they selected cause of the cookie it sets.

This is a good idea, but I think needs better integration and defineable by usergroup on which styles they are allowed to choose.

wouldn't it be the same as if the style was disabled? Then it would revert to the default forum style?

i don't think so, from what i have seen as soon as u change it, even with a link and not by the dropdown, it sets a cookie.
i don't think this will stop them from just appending &styleid=5 in the url ether tho.
