VirtueTek (12:31:34 AM): hey
VirtueTek (12:31:40 AM): How are you?
TUBEDOGG (12:31:42 AM): hi
TUBEDOGG (12:31:44 AM): ok
TUBEDOGG (12:31:49 AM): you?
VirtueTek (12:31:50 AM): I was hoping you could help me out for a second
VirtueTek (12:31:52 AM): good
VirtueTek (12:31:54 AM): http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...c12b1d406bb8cc 786a&threadid=21696
TUBEDOGG (12:34:01 AM): so you want another permission for showthread?
VirtueTek (12:34:27 AM): I guess so....basically I want them to see the forumdisplay...but not be able to read the posts
VirtueTek (12:35:17 AM): it would then go to the non-permissions page
TUBEDOGG (12:35:18 AM): couldn't you set "can view others threads" to no?
VirtueTek (12:35:25 AM): I did
VirtueTek (12:35:30 AM): and it shuts down the forum display
TUBEDOGG (12:35:45 AM): weird
VirtueTek (12:35:48 AM): it doesn't let the user who has no permission to see the thread title and such
VirtueTek (12:35:52 AM): I thought so too
TUBEDOGG (12:36:54 AM): ok here we go. in showthread.php, find
TUBEDOGG (12:36:55 AM): if (!$getperms['canviewothers'] and $thread['postuserid']!=$bbuserinfo['userid']) {
show_nopermission();
}
TUBEDOGG (12:36:58 AM): and add right under it
TUBEDOGG (12:37:07 AM): if (!$getperms['canviewposts']) {
show_nopermission();
}
TUBEDOGG (12:37:08 AM): then
TUBEDOGG (12:37:29 AM): add a field to the usergroup table called
TUBEDOGG (12:37:31 AM): canviewposts
TUBEDOGG (12:38:13 AM): then in admin/usergroup.php
TUBEDOGG (12:38:24 AM): find
makeyesnocode("Can view others' threads","canviewothers",1);
and add right below it
makeyesnocode("Can view thread pages","canviewposts",1);
TUBEDOGG (12:39:19 AM): then find
if ($HTTP_POST_VARS['action']=="insert") {
TUBEDOGG (12:39:58 AM): and replace the query right below it (the $DB_site->query part) with this:
$DB_site->query("INSERT INTO usergroup (usergroupid,title,usertitle,cancontrolpanel,canmo difyprofile,canviewmembers,canview,cansearch,c anemail,canpostnew,canmove,canopenclose,candeletet hread,canreplyown,canreplyothers,canviewo thers,caneditpost,candeletepost,canusepm,canpostpo ll,canvote,canpostattachment,ismoderator,can publicevent,canpublicedit,canthreadrate,cantrackpm ,candenypmreceipts,maxbuddypm,maxforward pm,canviewposts)

VirtueTek (12:40:42 AM): ok
VirtueTek (12:40:47 AM): that's everything?
TUBEDOGG (12:40:50 AM): Then find
makeyesnocode("Can view others' threads","canviewothers",$usergroup[canviewothers]);
and add right below it
makeyesnocode("Can view thread pages","canviewposts",$usergroup[canviewposts]);
VirtueTek (12:40:52 AM): k
VirtueTek (12:40:53 AM): :-)
TUBEDOGG (12:41:08 AM): :-) then find
TUBEDOGG (12:41:13 AM): if ($HTTP_POST_VARS['action']=="doupdate") {
TUBEDOGG (12:41:45 AM): and find right below that the query ($DB_site->query part) and replace it with
$DB_site->query("UPDATE usergroup SET title='".addslashes($title)."',usertitle='".addsla shes($usertitle)."',cancontrolpanel=$cancontrolpan el, canmodifyprofile=$canmodifyprofile,canviewmembers= $canviewmembers,canview=$canview,cans earch=$cansearch,canemail=$canemail,canpostnew=$ca npostnew,canmove=$canmove,canopencl ose=$canopenclose,candeletethread=$candeletethread ,canreplyown=$canreplyown,canreplyothers =$canreplyothers,canviewothers=$canviewothers,cane ditpost=$caneditpost,candeletepost=$candel etepost,canusepm=$canusepm,canpostpoll=$canpostpol l,canvote=$canvote,canpostattachment=$c anpostattachment,ismoderator=$ismoderator,canpubli cedit=$canpublicedit,canpublicevent=$canpu blicevent,canthreadrate=$canthreadrate,cantrackpm= $cantrackpm,candenypmreceipts=$candenyp mreceipts,maxbuddypm=$maxbuddypm,maxforwardpm=$max forwardpm,canviewposts=$canview posts WHERE usergroupid=$usergroupid");
VirtueTek (12:42:31 AM): k
TUBEDOGG (12:42:32 AM): then
TUBEDOGG (12:42:39 AM): in admin/forumpermisson.php
TUBEDOGG (12:42:43 AM): permission rather
TUBEDOGG (12:43:09 AM): find

TUBEDOGG (12:45:07 AM): and you'll need to add a column to forumpermission
