PasswordHack for v2.2.1 English

You can make a board password protected with this hack.
You can insert the password here:

Forums and Moderators
--> modify
---> choose a board

suggestion for the final:

- unsubscribe a access to a password protected board

fixed:

- no matches in the searchengine if a board is protected
- fixed the new topic bug.

And all this for free (somebody told me he want to pay, but all my hacks are for free)

Sorry for my english

update 7th December 2001
fixed the bug in the profile of a member.
if you downloaded this hack before see below to update.

Mist thanks for answering
What did you do to remedy the situation then? remove the clickable image from the postbit? If so, I will just do that ( I like the password entry too much to nix it) If you did, what postbit templates do I need to attack to make it happen?

hmmm I wonder how they handled this for vB3

[Littlebit]

Nevermind the previous post. I went ahead and removed the last post image/link from the forumhome_lastpostby and plugged the hole that way.
I am though still curious how it is done for vB3 anyone know? :surprised:

We just upgraded to 2.2.9, and reinstalled the password hack. The forums work fine, and the people that could get in before (already entered the forum passwords in the past) can get in and post fine, but new users aren't being prompted for the forum password, it simply says "[Name of our forum] Message", with no password entry box under it.

For those that have entered the forum password in the past-- everything works fine-- it's just new users that aren't prompted for the password (they just get that "[Name of Forum] Message").

How can we fix this ASAP?

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

you have to intert the templates for the passwort again

@ all

no further add ons to this hack and only limited support, because the passwort function is in vB3 integrated

[Littlebit]

Jonathanb,
yeh, that happened with me too because the script puts the templates in as original defaults and when you reinstalled it made them disappear (that happened with me with the store hack too ugg) I assumed they would stay there like all the altered templates do. I'm a dork.
I took out the query to add a password column part in passwordhack.php since the column is already there...then I re uploaded passwordhack.php and the script re-placed the templates.

[Afterburner]

use the attachment (passwordhacktemplate.php) to reimport the templates again

[Littlebit]

Afterburner, was it okay what I did? It said success and the templates are there. I'm not missing something though, am I ?
