I could make an extension (with turn on/off), or you could just add this to Line 23 on 'header.php':

if($forum_user['is_guest']) header("Location: ".forum_link($forum_url['login']));

Thanks for this, I think i'll add this code line into the header.php file.  I may see if I can write an extension or this as it would be good practice.  Do you know of any threads etc that could help me write an extension ?

Bach.

So, you want to force all guests to login or register?

Yeah,
First thing I want people to see is login or register.  I was looking for some information on the coding just so I can understand it.

Cheers

Thanks, how do you go about installing this add-on

Do you just upload them to the server, or is there a process I should follow.  couldn't see anything on the extension forum.

  1. Download the file

  2. Unzip the file into your extensions folder (you should see the extension's folder there)

  3. Go to Administration > Extensions

  4. Install the extension

  5. Enjoy smile

I have installed the extension and it works big_smile

What I was thinking is rather than having this for the login page can this be on the index page, so a user needs to login or register ?

Nice smile

But I would make it in another way.
No install and uninstall section, only 'hd_template_loaded' hook:

if (FORUM_PAGE == 'login')
    $tpl_main =
'<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" <!-- forum_local -->>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
<!-- forum_head -->
</head>
<body>

<div id="brd-wrap" class="brd">
<div <!-- forum_page -->>

<div class="hr"><hr /></div>

<div id="brd-main">
    <!-- forum_main -->
</div>

<div class="hr"><hr /></div>

</div>
</div>

</body>
</html>
';

We avoid writting files and some other problems when extension is disabled (see http://fluxbb.org/wiki/developing_exten … e_disabled).

I don't know whether it will work or not, but looking at your code I think it should smile

This is as far as I could go with only making a 'login.tpl':

http://garciat.us.to/punbb/login.php

If you want your forum to look that way, let me know.

That great, how does one go about greating that?

With regard to the Guest login, I do not want any guest to be able to login/access the forum.  This is one reason for the restricted first page. smile

If you're interested, let me know.
