a gift and a question

Not sure exactally which page you refer to when you say members page. If you are meaning browse.php or the actual profile page or other.

If you are referring to browse.php which is the link when you click on the "Members" page and returns "Browse Profiles" and you see members thumbnails all ligned up you can add or edit if already on the page to something like this or similar near the top of browse.php:

if ( !( $logged['admin'] = member_auth( 1, false ) ) )
if ( !( $logged['member'] = member_auth( 0, true ) ) )
if ( !( $logged['aff'] = member_auth( 2, false )) )
$logged['moderator'] = member_auth( 3, false );

Basically you are after changing or making sure:

if ( !( $logged['member'] = member_auth( 0, false ) ) )

says true like:
if ( !( $logged['member'] = member_auth( 0, true ) ) )

You can apply that or similiar code to any page you do not want guests to see, only members. So if you are talking about another page. See if the code is already in there and change false to true for member line. If not try adding the code near the top right after reference to css is usually sufficient.

Yes  .....  ALWAYS use descriptive subjects for the post  ..... 

Who would be searching for "gift" and/or "question"?

hey gameutopia,

-

Where would you place this code for the Forums? Tried it in /orca/index.php...it gave a fatal error.

Untested but you could try this code or similar is already in /orca/xml/design.php

change
if ( !( $logged['member'] = member_auth( 0, false ) ) )

to
if ( !( $logged['member'] = member_auth( 0, true ) ) )

I haven't messed with orca lately. You might also double check that your orca admin area works after altering too.

Again I haven't tested this yet though so see what it might do to any other things such as block/feeds to orca. My guess is that if you have a block on a page displaying the forum latest posts such as your index/homepage you will prevent guests from seeing it too. So you would probably see a spinning disk. But if your goal is to prevent guests from seeing they wouldn't be allowed to see this on the homepage, but members would and it would probably work out.

I'm missing something here.  What is the gift?  What is the question?

UPDATE:  On the topics list it says that this thread was started by tedwalther - but the first post I can see if from Sammie- Ted isn't here at all.  Was this thread somehow corrupted?  What was the original question?

gameutopia thanks....

When I get a minute...I'll let you know if it works.

-

How I have it now...the forum tab is invisible to guests...

I know that is confusing....Ted says he deletes his posts sometimes...but I have never seen a delete button available.

gift is gone..

Thanks for the gift Ted, but now can you solve another mystery.  How exactly did you delete your post?  I know we can edit posts, but I thought deleting them was impossible.

Good question Rob.

First you login to Boonex Unity with username: admin password: dolphin then you edit and delete anything you want. No just kidding it was just a thought.

I have never seen a delete option in the forums. I read something by one of the boonex guys about deleting a blog recently someone asked about and he said just go here and click on the delete link for a blog. I have never seen a delete link in a blog either for that matter.

Only thing I had in mind was to figure out the actual path to delete in my own site's forum and then basically punch it into these forums when I am logged in using boonex.com/unity/forums/delete-path

Right now I see javascriptvoid or similar, but if one located or figured out the actual path and code, I wonder if it would work here. Just a thought, and I haven't had a chance to play with the exact code but did see the reference to it in one of the xsl files in the forum folders.

Possible this wont do anything at all any way but a thought. Otherwise I don't know how one has the delete option here.

I am curious as well, not that I want to delete any of my posts. I could simply remove it by editing it to a blank reply if I really wanted to.

gameutopia

They are playing with our heads gameutopia - Sammie has also deleted hers.   I was trying to figure it out also just now when I saw your post.  I think I will do some useful work instead.   Someone will eventually reveal the secret.

p.s.  This is like those widgets I keep looking for- in some hidden chamber here somewhere- if anyone finds those let me know.

Here is another thought Rob sammie and ted are both contributors. Maybe since they are contributors they get the additional option to delete a forum post, maybe even a blog or other. Where standard members don't. I can't verify this but this was just a thought since they are both contributors. I guess maybe a contributor could verify whethere they have that option.

Also maybe contributors can see those hidden links you are seeking for the widgets that you can't.

gameutopia

Good thought game - as soon as I get a few nickels to rub together I will make a contribution.  I think I just figured out the widget one though - they are there in the communities area, but are not well labled.  The one I was looking for "most recent visitors" is called "presence" there for some reason.  They are pretty lame widgets though.  I thought they would work on my site but they require a completely separate login to Unity - I'm not sure anyone would want them.

I should add that it certainly adds some confussion when posts are deleted. It's like the original don't make any sense anymore and does create some confussion. Who know's what it does for search, but hey oh well what do we do. It was a kind of unusual forum title/topic to begin with and I really don't even remember what it was about to begin with anymore.

there is an allocated period of time that you are allowed to delete your post. after that time expires, it is my belief that you can no longer delete the post.

you guys dont have this after you make your post? the delete and edit link?

Nope, let me post this one and watch it. I will edit this if I see it. But never seen a delete link.

Nope no delete after posting only edit and quote:

This with firefox 3x and no contributor stats, not sure if that matters. but interesting.

check this out. this is a wiggy forum.

Go figure so what you saying you could actually click on my edit link and actually edit my forum? That would totally be lovely if that was the case. It would be wiggy.

i can click on it and actually edit it, but it does not save. i just took a gander at a post i wrote several days ago, the one that was about a mile and a half long showing the orca error when it presents the source in the header and the footer. well i just deleted it.

so it does appear that this is a contributor thing. actually first i have been aware of it. but a kewl feature.

however, i cannot click on any of your posts, the one where you copied and pasted and it had the Delete | Edit | Quote on the header area.
