Using Usergroup ID's to allow/deny Permisson question

[haxcommunity]

I'm making a seperate PHP based page, what code can I use to allow/deny access to the page based on a usergroup ID?

[m002.p]

Hi once calling /global.php try using the following code:

PHP Code:

if ($vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid'] == x) 
{

// Some Code

} 


OR

PHP Code:

if (is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo,X))  
{

// Some Code

} 


Obviously X needs replacing with the group

PHP Code:

if (!isset($vbulletin->userinfo['userid']) OR $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] == 0 OR !is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo,x,y,z))
{
    print_no_permission();
}

Hello, please help, not working for me:

PHP Code:

include("./forum/global.php");

if (!isset($vbulletin->userinfo['userid']) OR $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'] == 0 OR !is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo,20))
{
    print_no_permission();
}

And what is happening instead?

You should do a chdir before including global instead of the way you did it.

PHP Code:

chdir('/path/to/your/forums');
require_once('./global.php'); 


[Dismounted]

PHP Code:

chdir('./forum/');
require_once('./global.php');

if (!is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, 20))
{
    print_no_permission();
}
