Hello Ted…

Thank you for the patch. That was gracious of you to provide that …. :up:

I also do use your excellent "Welcome Headers" mod and have so for years as well. First class add-on....

Before I went ahead and put in the patch, I thought I'd check to see what was happening with "Limited Guest Viewing" right now, as it's been a few years since I did that. I discovered something odd. The mod seems to have stopped working at some point in time.

If I turn it OFF, then guests can't access posts and they receive the standard "not permitted" message. If I turn it ON, they are able to view threads, but indefinitely and none of the warning or blocked messages ever appear. I have no idea why it's stopped working and I've done a bunch of testing, but can't find anything unusual. I've recheck the addition of the $lgvmessage at the bottom of "NAVBAR" template and it's there, located right under the $welcomeheaders one, both located right at bottom of the template.

I know it was working and the "Welcome Headers" mod is still functioning fine. I even turned it off and tested without it running, but I never see any "Limited Guest Viewing" messages, nor does it stop anyone from indefinite views of posts in forums.

Any ideas where I can look further to test and debug?

Thanks again for your excellent mods. I have been meaning to send you a donation for years, but it always slips my mind. Now that I'm here once again and dealing with the forum, I have just done that to say thank you for your mods and other help you given everyone of the years.

Regards,
