View Only Boards

[Calcricho]

Any way to make it look like this?
I want the board to be visible but not the topics.

I mean topics unviewable, not viewable.

adm-boards- modify- remove access & visibility

Here's my permission:

But when I click "moderator's hideout" it show this, perfect exactly what I want:
Pic 2

But when the topics and posts is viewable outside the board, it should be invisible or at least 'private"

Sorry I wasn't using curve on my test site and wasn't getting any errors but when I switched to curve I did, I updated my post with a fixed version.

Thanks good job

Bug?
On board the child can not see the last post

Any suggestions?

Dismal Shadow, i'm not sure that i understand what you want. If you want this board to be completely invisible for some membergroups you have to remove the visibility too (second column).

and this is the bit of code it relates to.

'protected' => in_array($post['board'], $user_info['view_only_boards']), //- View Only Boards MOD-

I had a similar problem, not the same. NIBOGO fixed it immediately with a very reasonable price. You can pm me.

I too have the same problem with the line 77 error on a v2.0 RC1 site - I have been waiting for this mod to be upgraded for RC2 before upgrading the site itself.

Has anyone got a free bug fix for the line 77 problem?
Does the upgrade package, linked in a post a couple of pages back, work on RC2 and without the line 77 error?

C'mon Rudolph, Christmas is over now, Santa doesn't need you for another 12 months, please get this package sorted out and fix the bugs in it as well.

Thanks searchgr - that seems to do the trick.

Now I've got another one related to the same mod (it was there before, not caused by your edit, but occurs less regularly than the line 77 did).

From error log -

8: Undefined index: last_post
File: /home/serveraccount/public_html/board/Sources/Subs-BoardIndex.php
Line: 272

The function from Subs-BoardIndex.php has been modified by the View-Only Boards mod as follows (I've numbered only the two lines inserted by the mod)-

      // Just in the child...?
      if ($isChild)
      {
         $this_category[$row_board['id_parent']]['children'][$row_board['id_board']]['last_post'] = $this_last_post;

         // If there are no posts in this board, it really can't be new...
         $this_category[$row_board['id_parent']]['children'][$row_board['id_board']]['new'] &= $row_board['poster_name'] != '';
      }
      // No last post for this board?  It's not new then, is it..?
      elseif ($row_board['poster_name'] == '')
         $this_category[$row_board['id_board']]['new'] = false;



There's a lot of "last post"s in there - got me baffled good and proper it has.
