We're waiting to hear about Sarge's add-on to Deprecated's mod, Uhura. Meanwhile, I've set some of my Boards visible only to signed-on members.

Thanks Deprecated for this mod. I have just installed this on my SMF 2.0 RC2 and works good

Hi

I'm using smf 1.1.11 and installed this mod. (Nice mod by the way)

But it appears that the catagorie block doesn't work.
It does the same as the board block.

ie catagorie no 2 with board no 1.
I add catagorie no 2 to the blocking and I can see the board title and see the threads but I'm unable to read the threads.

If I leave the catagorie empty and add board no 1 to the blocking I get the same result as above.

Have I done somit wrong?

This looks very useful.

I think I answered my own question after reading the description for this mod more carefuly:-
"They will still be able to see the board index including all the topic titles, but they will be taken to the "Please login or register" page if they attempt to read any topics."

I was expecting that by adding the catagories you could only read the board titles.
But I now realise that it just prevents the reading of the threads for all the boards within the catagories.

Sry to have bothered you all.

For everybody who has problems with Guests still reading the last post in the topics trough the most recent topics link.

Here is a solution:

Open the Recent.php  in /Sources/ and find this code:

Code Select Expand

loadTemplate('Recent', 'forum');
$context['page_title'] = $txt['recent_posts'];


Replace:

Code Select Expand

is_not_guest(); loadTemplate('Recent', 'forum');
$context['page_title'] = $txt['recent_posts'];


This is a solution wich works very fine for SMF  2.0 RC3 and recent.


This code will give the guest a warning to either log in or register to the forum.

Have a try HERE

This forum is in dutch but at the bottom you will find: Bekijk de meest recente berichten op het forum.

click on that and the warning will be given.

Hope this helps a bit. 


p.s: ofcorse always make a backup first from your recent.php to re-instal if needed.

@Ronnie42:
Is there a similar solution for SMF 1.1.11?

I only find the following part in the recent.php:

Code Select Expand

loadTemplate('Recent');
$context['page_title'] = $txt[214];
Is this the right part to change?

And should the modification finally look like this?

Code Select Expand


is_not_guest(); loadTemplate('Recent');
$context['page_title'] = $txt[214];


I wonder, if the templates "214" and "Recent" are the same in the two versions and why the loading of the template in SMF 2 ist slightly different

Code Select Expand

loadTemplate('Recent', 'forum'); instead of

Code Select Expand

loadTemplate('Recent'); with 1.1.11

Sorry if the questions are stupid, I am new to SMF.
Thanks a lot,

There are no stupid questions as far as i'm concernd

I would say: just backup your recent php trough ftp and store it on a save place on your pc, then make a copy of the file and try to edit the code, if it works then!! well your happy ;-)

If not?

Just put the backup file back in the sources root and move on.

Just try it out.

But always be carefull with wat you do ofcorse and ask somebody for help if you need it.

[JessyKa]

Hello Laterzz,
thanks for Your answer.
It won't work because the recent.php in 1.11.1 doesn't contain this part.

Yet I started to edit the \Themes\default\BoardIndex.template.php
I removed the link to the recent posts.
But there is still a leftover within the statistic section:

Code Select Expand


<td class="windowbg2" width="100%">
<span class="middletext">
', $context['common_stats']['total_posts'], ' ', $txt[95], ' ', $txt['smf88'], ' ', $context['common_stats']['total_topics'], ' ', $txt[64], ' ', $txt[525], ' ', $context['common_stats']['total_members'], ' ', $txt[19], '. ', $txt[656], ': <b> ', $context['common_stats']['latest_member']['link'], '</b>
<br /> ' . $txt[659] . ': <b>&quot;' . $context['latest_post']['link'] . '&quot;</b>  ( ' . $context['latest_post']['time'] . ' )<br />
<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=recent">', $txt[234], '</a>', $context['show_stats'] ? '<br />
<a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=stats">' . $txt['smf223'] . '</a>' : '', '
</span>
</td>

If I could also remove the link in

Code Select Expand

<a href="', $scripturl, '?action=recent">', $txt[234], '</a>' anything would be ok. But if I try, I always get a parsing error.
Is there any other file that needs to be adapted?
best regards,
Jessy

Hi JessyKa

I too use 1.1.11 and this mod (great Mod by the way)

This is what I followed to remove the 'View recent posts'
http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=355403.0

Hope this helps you.

[bryan_49ers]

works out of the box for 2.03... lifesaver! ... now if I could only control by member group...

[JessyKa]

Thanks Hawkmoth!
I didn't find this thread, although it is exactly what I was looking for.
Will have a try.

[blakilox]

Why is this mod depreceated? is it because a similar feature is now available ?

I like the solution posted just above, however would this stop Google from indexing the boards?

Thankyou for help.

Thank you  Deprecated, I had no idea this MOD existed but it was needed and I had to ask if anything like this was available. This should be a default CORE mod for SMF. Thanks for making this one bud I was using REG LINKS but that can get annoying seeing REGISTER everywhere.

Good job. I had to parse and stuff since my site is so full of MODS but, it was very easy.
