[squirrelof09]

THe recent posts seem to get past that lil' password thingy..

[Thantos]

Hmmm good point.  Maybe the next version.

hello i use the passwdBoard_0-1.zip for RC1, but now ask me for upgrade, says failed, how can upgrade?

other thing when a board is protect and a member put into a pass he dont need do again anymore why? It sould be everytime he login or after few minutes, like admin password

[ExistenZ]

I also get that now. it only wants to upgrade Load.php

[Thantos]

The user only needs to enter the password once per session.  I figured that would be the least obstrusive way while maintaining some level of security.

As far as the upgrade part is concerned, that is for 1.0.5 ONLY.

I have installed the mod and enabled password on two boards in Manage Boards section. But when I enter the password that we have kept for these two boards on the Board Index, it gives an error saying incorrect password. When we try entering it again on the error page, it doesn't accept it. We have tried different browsers- I.E., Opera, Firefox, Netscape... but no help. Any help please.

You may NOT redistribute this modification in any way, shape, or form.  This includes putting it on your board where others can download it.

ı'm this mod to turn Turkish languages chance.

and I'm opened to download my web page

and

I give yours link my web page

ok ?

[Thantos]

If you want to translate a turkish language file for those mods I have no problem with that.  However you must only distribute the language file itself.

[ASi ve MAVi]

i have to do some codes in turkish

[ictus]

can this code be addapted to password protect topics, and yes I have a need.

Sorry I PMed you over this Mike, the thread I was reading was locked, I just found this one, thanks

[Thantos]

You could use the same idea.  Add a password column to smf_topics and then on the post page give an option to password the topic.  Then change Post.php and Subs-Post.php to insert the password when its posted.  Then change Load.php to look for the password when you enter a topic.

Thanks for the pointer, I'll have to learn some php, but Iguess I should learn some anyway

Might take a bit, but I'll pst the changes back if I can get them to work, thanks..

@ViV, reset the board's password.  It IS case sensentive.  Also do you have any special characters in the board name or password?

[ViV]

Bro... i have resetted it so many times... and passwords are nothing but one word in small letters. No use. Even tried uninstalling n re-installing mod... still no use.

[Thantos]

If you want you can PM with a link and an account that can manage boards and I'll take a look.
