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 ?

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 ?

Not sure if this will work.

I prob not communicated what I am trying to do.

Category 1

  • Forum1

  • Forum2

  • Forum3

  • Forum4

Category 2

  • Forum1

  • Forum2

  • Forum3

  • Forum4

All members can see all forums under Category 2, the problem is the forums under Category 1.

One group (top man) needs access to all so that is easy.  The problem comes here, some members will need access to multiple forums under Category 1, which I can not set-up a static group for them as it will depend on what they do.

Member a needs access to forum 2 & 3 under cat 1 and all forums under 2
Member b needs access to forum 4 under cat 1 and all forums under 2
Member c needs access to forum 1 under cat 1 and all forums under 2
etc.

How would one go about this.

They both have 0777 permissions.

Do you have problems with these extensions? Or they are functioning fine?

pun_repository intentionally sets permissions to 777. This enables users to delete downloaded files manually (for example, via FTP).

seems to work fine, wasn't sure if it was appropriate at the time so I thought I would mention it.

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

All,

I have set the forum up with 2 categories at present and several forums under it.  I have then set-up a group per forum, what I need to do is assign users to multiple groups as some users will need access to more than one group but other users should not have access to several forums.

All,

I have removed all options for Guest, I was wondering how I could go about getting a page just to have the login page and not show the forum title etc.

Have you got any ideas, or is this even possible.

Hi all,
I thinking of using punbb forum but I need something very secure.  I was looking for some beginners sticky on configuring the forum.

Colours, best practices, recommendations from people who have used the forum.

Is there any thread like this ?
