Closed forum Permissions

[Beams]

I have asked on vbulletin.com and was told to ask here


Turn Your vBulletin on and off
Bulletin Board Active
From time to time, you may want to turn your bulletin board off to the public while you perform maintenance, update versions, etc. When you turn your BB off, visitors will receive a message that states that the bulletin board is temporarily unavailable. Administrators will still be able to see the board


Is there away to allow mods access to the forum when its closed plz

Thanks

In global.php replace this:

  $permissions=getpermissions();
  if (!$permissions['cancontrolpanel']) {

With this:

  $permissions=getpermissions();
  if (!$permissions['cancontrolpanel'] and !$permissions['ismoderator']) {

FF - I have tried this and still my mod's can't get in? Any ideas

[Xenon]

this is just for supermods

if you change it into this:

PHP Code:

$permissions=getpermissions();
  if (!$permissions['cancontrolpanel'] and !$permissions['ismoderator'] and !$DB_site->query_first("SELECT userid FROM moderator WHERE userid=$bbuserinfo[userid]") { 


it should work for normal mods also
