Thanks and regards!

If you go into 'VSa - Server Overload Permissions' plugin and surround the PHP code with this if statement.

PHP Code:

if($_SERVER["SCRIPT_NAME"] != '/register.php')
{
//rest of the plug in code goes in here
} 


Users will still be able to register while the forum is closed for guests :up:

Valter mate what does this means
Close forums and display alert when server load is higher than = 10

Can you explain

[Pure Dope]

why doesnt this close the forums for everybody?

why close the forums? just redirect them to a page that refreshes ever 3 minutes and xfers them when the load is down...IF they are a guest.
