The Arcive of Official vBulletin Modifications Site.

I've installed vBulletin on a site which has a private forum that only certain members can access. I would like to offer the ability for private forum members to subscribe to the private forum via RSS but the vBulletin core does not allow that for private forums.

In a nutshell, my situation is similar to the one discussed here:

How do I enable RSS for the private forum?

I have searched this site and can't seem to find what I'm looking for. Please point me in the right direction..

Thank you.

Never seen a modification for this, and it could be a tricky one as you would need to idnetify to an account over the internet. With default vBulletin RSS-feeds will always use the permissions for guests.

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