Password Protected Forum

[Zero Complex]

I not sure if it has been done yet, i can't find it anywhere in the db. I was wondering if any has created/could create a hack that allows you to set forums to have password protection. This hack would be very useful to me and my forum users, so please lemme know if there is one, or if it could be made.

thanks

This is included in vB3 just so you know.

heh cool

remember they had it on ubbs. but im gonna stick to allowed access - much better as its easier to control who gets in.

with pword forums only takes some1 to tell some1 the pword and then nearly everyone knows.

i like the access masks and all also. But problem is if we give a mod access to allow people into their private forum, when we add an forum, it defaultly sets the access masks for all the mods on the board to be able to see it and all... Thats only reason i was askin for this...
