Restrict Guest Viewing Threads in a Forum

I'm actually suprised that you can't stop guests from viewing threads themselves in forum and the only solution is to stop them Viewing others and that includes the thread titles on forumdisplay.

This lets guests see threads made by someone else on the forumdisplay page but not the thread itself, they'll get a nice error telling them to register.

Can be enabled on a forum by forum basis within the forum options.

I use this for a member forum on my board and I would rather show a guest what the thread title is, instead of showing no title at all

Thanks ppn exactly what we need for our resource forums. Am going to try installing this immediately

I got some error when trying to add forums. I know I ran this query though. (I installed this a while ago) but anyway, all I did was revery to the original file when adding forums, then go back after. lol! Not really a good fix, but it worked. Next time I try to add a forum I'll have to do it again. Dunno what I did. :ermm:

What a wonderfull hack .. I got it runnign on 2.2.9 . anybody running it on 2.3 ?

Works Great on 2.3.0

NOTE:: You must find the (second occurence in file) in order for this to work, just dont forget it.

Any way to make it so the first X number of posts per thread are shown, and then the rest get the error message? That would be cool.

????? Thanks if anyone knows this.
