i havent tried this, so dont take this at face value, but i think this should work

in showthread.php, change

    if (!($forumperms & GTPCANREADCONTENT))
    {
        print_no_permission();
    }

to

    if (!$forumperms)
    {
        print_no_permission();
    }
    elseif (!GTPCANREADCONTENT)
    {
        print_my_no_permission();
    }

You will have to write this new function, "print_my_no_permission" by yourself. You can take inspiration from the default vBulletin function.

Similar changes will have to be made to showpost, archive and printthread.


Hope this helps.
