No real PHP knowledge is needed, if you can follow instructions and do some copy and paste with text files.
OK - backup these files first so you can go back if something goes wrong. You'll also need to put original files back if you need "official" Infopop support.
Modify at your own peril is the saying.... but this is fairly safe.
code:
In your showflat.php file.....
Find this:
// -----------------
// Get the user info
$userob = new user;
$user = $userob -> authenticate("U_Display, U_Groups,... [:"red"]edited for length[/]
$Username = $user['U_Username'];
$html = new html;
BELOW it, add this:
// ------------------
// Block anon users from viewing posts - by JoshPet
if (!$Username) {
$html -> not_right($ubbt_lang['NO_AUTH'],$Cat);
}
In you showthreaded.php file......
Find this:
// -----------------
// Get the user info
$userob = new user;
$user = $userob -> authenticate("U_Display, U_Groups,... [:"red"]edited for length[/]
$Username = $user['U_Username'];
BELOW it, add this:
// ------------------
// Block anon users from viewing posts - by JoshPet
if (!$Username) {
$html -> not_right($ubbt_lang['NO_AUTH'],$Cat);
}
That should do it.
Then allow those forums to be read by the "Guest" group. It will let them view the list of posts.... but when they click to view a thread, if they are not logged in, they will receive the error page telling them that they must be logged in.. etc.
I haven't tested... but this should work fine.... let me know how it works out for ya.
