Customizing SMF > Modifications and Packages
View Only Boards
OutofOrder:
Hello, i'm looking forward to install this mod in my forum. This kind of mod should be bundled with the official SMF install files, it is such a good idea for a mod, imo :)
Well, i'd like to know if version 1.1.2 brought any -possible- problems with this mod. I hope not, and will await for your answer. Thanks in advance.

I just noticed something. Certain boards I have allowed guests to view and some not view. But in the info center it says "view the most recent posts" and guests can click this on and read any post and access that board too! How can I prevent guests from viewing the most recent posts?
DreamSinger:
I checked my board, logged out, and as a guest went through the most recent posts in the info center. The only topics it listed were from boards that were public. The boards I couldn't enter as a guest weren't listed in the center. However, I don't have the box checked where the guests could view the topics index. They can only view the board index on the main forum page, not the listing of topics within the board.

I have kind of the same problem. I have set view only boards on all forums, but guests can get in through the forum statistics!!! If they "view latest post" or "view the most recent posts"they get direct access to any topic that`s open for regular members.
This must definately be a "security" issue with this mod. I can see guests browsing/reading topics all the time, topics they are not supposed to see !
Rudolf:
I can't reproduce this issue. I have a test forum where I have two boards with topics in each of them. One board is accessible to guest the other no.
The recent posts page shows only the posts from the board the guest have access. But not from the other.
