Quite interesting mod, but what will happen if the guest has the direct link to a topic?
And this is supposed to happen only on boards that guests have access, no?
The idea is good, the implementation i think would have to resemble the View/Enter Board Permissions mod, so that we can choose from the permission if membergroups can view the topics or enter them.

Labradoodle-360:
Take a peak at the coding, it adds a line to Display.php for guests, meaning even if a guest has a direct link, it will redirect them.

Edit: The line added in ./Sources/Display.php
--- Code: (Display.php) --- if ($context['user']['is_guest']) redirectexit ('action=login');
--- End code ---

shumilica:
Ok, I was thinking it adds it in the messageindex, but I would want to use this mod if it is activated per board basis. So that guest can enter topics in a board, but only view the titles in another. I think this would be the most lucrative mode of the mod.

Labradoodle-360:
Something similar is already setup, you can not allow guests to be able to view certain boards. The only benefit if I made my mod by a board-based permission would that guests could see messageindex's, which wouldn't be a huge gain.

However, I will consider it.
