How does Usergroup permission work?
 

Hey,

I need to understand how vB's general permissions work that you change from the Usergroup Manager?

How does vB's script check whether it's a Yes or No value? I've been trying to figure this out for a while and thought maybe someone here has an answer.

Thank you
Johnny

anyoooone

it uses bit system, 1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128, etc...

You might want to take a look at init.php

How does that system work really? i don't understand how it works.

I've successfully added a new Yes/No options to Usergroups but now afterwards how do I write my scripts to detect if it's a Yes or No value?

thanks

it'd be nice with an answer.

If I knew id tell you, you will either have to wait or go read documentation, sorry.

I gotta bump this thread as I am having issues with the init.php file..

i have add more usergroup options and I gotta Understand how these work. How long does it take until they populate the new $usergroup array so I can start using them for checking permissions etc..

anyone? please...

okay, i figured it out.. wow. i'm good :p

Great, can you share the info :) ?

The coding of permission is tight but makes life hard for hackers.

when you understand how it works you see it's easy.

This one is also the same. I may make a tips thread for this soon.
