In your newattachmentbit template, find:

Replace that by:

			<b>[MP3]http://www.yoursite.com/vb/attachment.php?attachmentid=$attach[attachmentid].mp3[noguest]This text is only for registered memberp[/noguest][/MP3]</b>

If you mean this, than no. I am not working with attachments so I don't need to alter that code.

I would like to have the noguest code within the new custom media player code I added... as in my first post.

I hope I am not confusing you... lol :nervous:

I appreciate your attempt MarcoH64 Sorry if I was unclear in anyway as to my need here.

On my old board, a user will click on the bbcode media button, paste in the url to the file, and it will display something like this in their text box.

[media]"http://www.mysite.com/mediafile.mpeg"[/media]

Once they click submit, the post will show the Media player screen and buttons, but below it the additional text will display, viewable to members but hidden to guests. They didn't enter it, it was set in advance and automatically included in the media bbcode.

So, I want to do the same thing with my new VB, problem is, it's not working. And if I import my old board and threads, all the hidden text will be viewable... huge problem

I went to the custom bbcode, added the media player object code and after that the noguest code and text. But when I go to make a post, the media player shows, but I then also see the ENTIRE [noguest]text[/noguest] code displays, like the board didn't read the bbcode. So, my problem is, how do I get VB to read the noguest code within the media code I added?

This is the only thing stopping me from importing my current board and start using my new VB. If I can't get this to work, I can't use VB... so much for the money I just spent. Just a little worried here. If you have any other suggestions... or perhaps someone else is reading this and may have some input, I would be forever grateful.

thanks
