Prevent threadprinting by guests · **Released**: 03-31-2003

I saw a guests fanatic searching and printing on our forum and after i logged out i discovered that guests can print threads from our forum. How can we prevent this?

In your usergroup modification you can edit their permissions on what they can and can't do... hope that helps...

but nothing is going to stop them from printing from their browser. You just will make it take a bit longer for them because they will have to manually print each page.

well if you restrict them from viewing threads then they will be restricted

or you can actually use the forum access masks to limit the unregistered users to like a couple forums and the rest restrict

quite true. However, he didn't say he doesn't want guests to see the threads - just not print them

I guess I am just too literal sometimes.
