Thanks for taking the time and patience with me on this. I really appreciate it. I'll be looking forward to the new thread and your instructions tomorrow then. Have one for me tonight (today, actually for me). I'm home watching the little one.

But to answer your question here, yeah, you can place it in 'functions.php' if you wish, and you call it like this :

PHP Code:

// generate string list of non-viewable forums, relative to current visitor
$forumsCannotView_strList = getForumPermissions($bbuserinfo[usergroupid]); 


You only need to call it the once inside a script, and then you have all the forums IDs the current viewer is allowed to view as a string list, in $forumsCannotView_strList, which you can use however you want.
