OK...I see it. Basically just a cleaner way of doing what I had?

As well, do you know what the correct template to call for the login form is?

[assassingod]

Yeah, aslo there's an EVEN cleaner away of doing it with vB3 conditionals.

[dontpanic]

Well, I'm cool with conditionals. I wonder if it work to solve the secondary user group issue...I'll have to try it. What value would I be looking for? Same as in the code I've got now?

[assassingod]

Yeah, you'd use in the template:

<if condition="in_array($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'], array(6,11))">
the main stuff here
</if>

Or if that doesnt work:

<if condition="in_array($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'], array(6,11))">
the main stuff here
<else />
everything else
</if>

[dontpanic]

OK, cool. I want the else to make them go to the login form though...where can I find that bit of code?

STANDARD_ERROR template

OK, so far so good. It works nicely.

I wonder if vB 3.x uses a different variable for secondary user group membership...

[dontpanic]

And the answer to that question is YES!

Secondary user groups: membergroupids

Ahh , ok
