Show new posts from members only?

[Simon Lloyd]

Hi all we have both members and guests posting in our forums, currently we use http://www.thecodecage.com/forumz/search.php?do=getnew to find all new posts, is there a way of showing all new posts from members only?

[Mr-Moo]

Let me know if this works, in my "head" it does

Find in "search_results":

PHP Code:

<if condition="$action == 'getnew'">$vbphrase[new_posts_nav]<else />$vbphrase[posts_from_last_day]</if>
        </if> 


Replace With:

PHP Code:

<if condition="!is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo, X)"><if condition="$action == 'getnew'">$vbphrase[new_posts_nav]<else />$vbphrase[posts_from_last_day]</if>
        </if></if> 


Replace "X" with the usergroups you want to allow. Separate them like this "1,2,4,5,6" for multiple groups.

Let me know if this works.

Mr-Moo, thanks very much for the reply, i haven't added it yet as i have one question, if i use the code does that mean that the "New Posts" will only ever show members posts?, ideally i want to keep the original link and add a button/link in my navbar to show just members new posts.

How could we integrate that, would it need to be a plugin?

[Mr-Moo]

I'm sorry, I missunderstood your question. When I first read it I thought you wanted to only have members able to view the new posts.

I will have to think about this one a little more as it may require a database query.

My apologies.

Ok, well thanks for trying
