Secondly, I'm pretty sure this already exits, just that i'm not seeing it ... how do I set permissions for one usergroup to view a particular section. For example, the downloads section should only be accessed by "registered users" or "any usegroup" I choose?

Thanks, a lot Andrew for your hard work!!! :laugh:

Zain, either I'm not understanding your problem, or your problem is already fixed. I thought that what you didn't like was that the text of your bbcode appeared in the navigation bar, and version 1.55 has removed that.

For setting usergroup permissions, you do the following:
a) Either select a forum that already has the viewing permissions that you want to use, or create such a forum on your main board (you can hide it if necessary) and (using the main VB admin page) give that the permissions you want to apply to your downloads category
b) Go into your links admin page and make sure you've given yourself can_set_permissions privilege
c) Edit the category that you want to restrict and associate it with the forum in a)

If you only want to restrict some of the links in the category, you can simply edit those and set their associated forum.
