Some help please

I am trying to find a way to prevent the header info from displaying until after a user logs in.

As the page loads, the site logo is displayed, then the menu bar, then the logon prompt. I don't want the menu bar to be displayed until after the person logs in to the forum.

Any ideas?

TIA

Try Logician's Dynamic Templates hack....that should do the trick!

[Logician]

yep you can apply the hack and in the header use the conditional:
[[($bbuserinfo[userid]>0)]]
your header for members go here
[[/($bbuserinfo[userid]>0)]]

or

if you want "the hack" way,
edit global.php find:

PHP Code:

eval("\$header .= \"".gettemplate('header')."\";"); 


After that add:

PHP Code:

if ($bbuserinfo[userid]==0) {$header=' ';} 


Both will do the trick, choose your pick

lol - I tried both

Thanks so much

[Logician]

well dont use both, it's redundant.. choose either one..

Or if you don't even want to hack a single PHP file, add the line of code for the global.php posted by Logician into your phpinclude template. Just a template edit.

I meant I used one on the header and the other on the footer - just had to try both examples out
