I've had a look around but couldn't find whether there is a mod to define custom hours that the board is open.

I would like if possible to restrict access to only 09:30 to 16:30 Monday to Friday

Is this possible?

why?

you would have to go in and turn your vb off in the admincp...its like the firsy opion under vbulletin opitions.

but....why would you wanna turn your board off like that? Just curious..

I'm assuming he runs a Support forum. I'm guessing he doesn't want people waiting for a response when there's no one there to give it.

Kind of like calling a 1-800 number...

Similar idea.

We're going to be using vBulletin from a corporate standpoint, so having it 24x7 is not really a option, so we need it open during our general office hours.

I wonder if cron jobs/scheduled tasks could accomplish this.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
