well....then if you could point me to a portal system that isn't a rip off i'll use that one. Dosen't matter to me. I just want one that works. And this is the url to the support thread in the hack description.

Better plan would be to use the original hack - not the ripoff that doesn't work ...

(just a suggestion LOL)

Great work NTLDR

I have this installed and have read through tons of pages but cannot find if this problem is solved or not.

I have private forums on my forum and an admin/mod room which is only for admin and mods of course and the other private forums is for a specific usergroup and admins and mods. On the latest threads......everyone can see the titles of the threads in the private forums.....big problem

I found a post that had some stuff but it didn't change anything

is there a fix for this?

please please....I need it bad

thanks in advance

[drives fast]

well....I bet you are tired of seeing questions that are already answered huh...lol

I finally found a post that explained about the permissions being set rather than being inherited and that definately fixed my problem....

disregard my last post and thank you.

Hi again.... I think there is a problem with my vbindex, my users log in on vbindex and when they come in to the forum they arent loged in.. any suggestions ?

[NTLDR]

You need to set your cookie domain and path correctly, normally:

cookie domain = .mydomain
cookie path = /

In the vBulletin Options in the ACP.

[Rodney]

like .swespy.com ?

[NTLDR]

Thats it

[Rodney]

tnx it works now....

[sabret00the]

i was wondering basically i want this hack but;

I want to be able to define different forums for it to present threads from, each forum having it's own page

so if i had a forum called news, that would be the index, then if i clicked on music i would get lets say the 5 newest threads from the forum called 'music' on a page of it's own and if i clicked sports i would get the 5 newest threads from the 'sports' forum.

**5 being an admin definable number
