##
##        Mod title:  Extended Forum Access Mod (EFAM)
##
##      Mod version:  1.1
##   Works on PunBB:  1.1.1
##     Release date:  2004-02-04
##           Author:  Kristoffer "Cactuz" Jansson (jansson@cactuz.nu)

##
##      Description:  This mod extends the forum access down to the user
##                    level. This is how it works: First, "lock" a forum with
##                    the forum admin. Then you just have to add access to all
##                    users you want to give access to the forum in their
##                    profile.php.
## 
##   Affected files:  admin_forums.php
##                    post.php
##                    viewforum.php
##                    viewtopic.php
##                    profile.php
##
##       Affects DB:  Yes
##
##            Notes:  This mod has been updated to work with PunBB 1.1.1 by
##                    Rickard Andersson.

##                    applicable files before proceeding.

I went through it and made some changes so that it will work with PunBB 1.1.1. The line numbers should be correct, but don't get your panties in a bunch if they are one row off in a place or two :)

Download it at Punres as usual: http://punres.cactuz.nu/?p=projects/desc&id=4

Re: Extended Forum Access Mod 1.1 by Cactuz

When the Guest user tries to access a restricted forum, I get this message:

Warning: Wrong datatype for first argument in call to array_key_exists in /web/foros/viewforum.php on line 69

That happens only with the guest account. Unauthorised accounts display the proper message, and authorized display the forum :-).

Re: Extended Forum Access Mod 1.1 by Cactuz

Ah, of course. Try this. Replace:

if($locked == '1' && $cur_user['status'] < 2 && !array_key_exists($cur_user['id'], $locked_users))

with

if($locked == '1' && $cur_user['status'] < 2 && !array_key_exists(intval($cur_user['id']), $locked_users))

Does that help?

Yep, since yesterday I can't DL anything from there. And just today was the forum available. I think they are moving and links might be broken temporarily...

Unfortunately this website doesn't support attachments ;-)
Send me your email and I'll send it to you, it's really a small file, and you'll have to correct what's already stated here.

Wow, they've certainly grown up... wouldn't have recognized them in a thousand years wink I remember the series, though... uncle Jesse was my favourite character, of course.

You have mail.

Re: Extended Forum Access Mod 1.1 by Cactuz

BTW, an email server per se, is not possible through php. You can however create a cgi script or something alike as your own email engine, but php has the sendmail function that allows you to send email provided the machine is running an smtp engine.
There are packages, though, and they need not be large files, some viruses incorporate their own smtp engine (on windows machines that allow raw sockets, AFAIK).

But there are indeed email frontends that allow you to check your email from an imap/pop server and to send emails. No need to reinvent the wheel wink

Because it's a hack, not a permanent solution.
