hi marco,

can you tell me why this does not work?

Code:

function handle_bbcode_noguest($code)

{

        global $bbuserinfo;



        // remove empty codes

        if (trim($code) == '')

        {

                return '';

        }



        // Prevent caching if a BB-code is used that is userdependent

        // Uncomment the following 2 lines if the parsing of the bb-code is user dependent.

        // So:

        // - If user permissions are checked

        // - If usergroup is checked

        // - if userid is checked

        // - .....

        // Leave commented if:

        // - No checking is done

        // - Checking is done based on forumid

        // - ....

        global $bbcodeparse_nopostcache;

        $bbcodeparse_nopostcache = 1;

        if ($bbuserinfo['userid'] == 0 OR $bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == 2)                         // Guest

        {

                $code = "no guest!";

        }



        return $code;

}

usergroup 2 are those with 0 posts. i dont know why they still can see what lies beneath the tag. it still works for guests with this code but not for registered users with 0 posts. (usergroup id 2)

haha, i solved the "problem" myself. i just added usergroupid instead of userid.
thanks a lot for this great hack. everything works fine now! :)

I am going to have a play with this, as i have recently been developing an admin notes system where admins can leave notes in posts stating if somebody has done somethign wrong, rather than just editing the post ;)

If I am not mistaken this looks like it will do exactly that?

rin	01-27-2005 07:27 PM

this will exactly display something different to different groups.
for example the media to the paying customers and an error notice to the guests.
i am just not too sure about the built-in archive of vb3.

Will try to check put the archive tomorrow.

@roundhost/eric
Yes i think it will work fine for what you want to do.

Okay, here is what I have and it's not working for me i.e. nothing happens and it does not send the permissions error allowing anyone to view. Let's say I want to send a no permissions error code to my custom [media] BBcode.

I change all instances of mycustombbcode to media according to the instructions in Install Conditional Custom BB-Codes.txt and applied the instructed changes to functions_bbcodeparse.php

Then I make the proper additions to the functions_forumdisplay.php and it still does not block the group. Here is the function_bbcodeparse.php that I am using.

PHP Code:


		
			
// Start Hack Conditional BB-Codes (MarcoH64)

// ###################### Start bbcodehandler_media #######################

function handle_bbcode_media($code)

{

    // Define Global Variables if needed:

    // global $neededglobalvarnames;



    // remove empty codes

    if (trim($code) == '')

    {

        return '';

    }

    

    // Prevent caching if a BB-code is used that is userdependent

    // Uncomment the following 2 lines if the parsing of the bb-code is user dependent.

    // So:

    // - If user permissions are checked

    // - If usergroup is checked

    // - if userid is checked

    // - .....

    // Leave commented if:

    // - No checking is done

    // - Checking is done based on forumid

    // - ....

    // global $bbcodeparse_nopostcache;

    // $bbcodeparse_nopostcache = 1;

    if ($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'] == 6)             

    {

        // You can change the following to whatever suits you, text and/or html

        $code = "<b>You must be registered to view the embedded media player</b>";

    }

    return $code;

}

// End Hack Conditional BB-Codes (MarcoH64)

Any ideas on what i am doing wrong?

Yes 2 things are wrong:
1. Since this condition is user dependant, you will need to uncomment the line:

PHP Code:


		
			
// $bbcodeparse_nopostcache = 1;

2. You will need to change the line:

PHP Code:


		
			
    // global $neededglobalvarnames;

to:

PHP Code:


		
			
global $bbuserinfo;

in top of the function i think. See also the provided [noguest] example.

It's still not working, here is what I have now. I log in as guest and can still see the custom bbcode (I am using 'media' as my bbcode' it's been changed in all instances).

PHP Code:


		
			
// Start Hack Conditional BB-Codes (MarcoH64)

// ###################### Start bbcodehandler_noguest #######################

function handle_bbcode_media($code)

{

    global $bbuserinfo;



    // remove empty codes

    if (trim($code) == '')

    {

        return '';

    }

    

    // Prevent caching if a BB-code is used that is userdependent

    // Uncomment the following 2 lines if the parsing of the bb-code is user dependent.

    // So:

    // - If user permissions are checked

    // - If usergroup is checked

    // - if userid is checked

    // - .....

    // Leave commented if:

    // - No checking is done

    // - Checking is done based on forumid

    // - ....

    global $bbcodeparse_nopostcache;

    $bbcodeparse_nopostcache = 1;

    if ($bbuserinfo['userid'] == 0)             // Guest

    {

        // You can change the following to whatever suits you, text and/or html

        $code = "Sorry this text is not viewable by guests.";

    }

    return $code;

}

// End Hack Conditional BB-Codes (MarcoH64)

Did you made the file edits as instructed in "Install with user based conditionals.txt" and optionally in "Install with use of post cache.txt"?

PS You could try the "noguest" example. It is almost the same as what you want, and tested.
