Controlling a non VB page

Hi!

I currently use this code to prevent non registered users from viewing a page on my web site:

PHP Code:

include ("global.php");
if ($bbuserinfo[userid]==0) {
    show_nopermission();
} 


How could I improve that code so it doesnt allow users that have registered BUT have not confirmed their email address to view the page. So if they try to access the page, it displays the message saying they need to activate their account first.

Thanks :banana:

Compare the usergroupid instead. Also use require instead of include for better security.

Is the user group .. $bbuserinfo[usergroup] ????

How do you find out these variables, are they listed anywhere?

Thanks for letting me know about the require, Ive changed that.

Nice one guys, got that one sorted.

Last thing :lick:

I use..

show_nopermission();

When they are not logged in. Because Im now also checking to see if they have authorised their email address, does vBulletin have a template to says that they need to authorise their email?

show_emailauthorise(); or something!

Thanks again :bandit: :bandit:
