I'm working on a customized version of the newthread.php file that will handle posts destined for a specific forum. In addition to the normal thread handling tasks the file will need to post data to a seperate table.

I want the script to ignore the incoming forum direction (i.e. the f=X in the URL) and lock onto it's own forum.

I can get it to work with the URL newspell.php?do=newthread&f=6

But I want to get rid of the f=6 and if the do isn't specified I want to default to new thread, making it possible for the URL to simply be newspell.php

However, I can't get past the permissions system. I get no permissions errors, sorry the forum isn't accepting new posts and all sorts of related garbaage. I *can* disable the permission system of course, but I fear that could create a security whole especially since I may at some point want to limit new posting priveledges to specific usergroups.

HELP. I'm getting incredibly fustrated here.
