Hi all

Is there a Hack for this or........

How would I restrict non members to the main page only?

On the main page "ultimatebb.cgi" I show the categories and the heading for the forums normally the non members can click on the headings and view the forums, how can I make it that they go to the login page instead.

I would like them to view the front page only.

I have been told ............
quote:
It could also be done with a one line hack.

All I'll say here is:
search for the following line in ultimatebb.cgi (spelling mistake copied directly)
# members only acess check

Modifying that bit of code to permit a blank $ubb SHOULD do the trick.

(That's the code that specifies which actions, such as registration and logins, bypasses the members only requirement)

But do not know how to do it.

Thank you
