premium member hack???

[smindsrt]

Is there a mod that has most of what someone would want in a premium membership???

-private forums
-highlighted usernames (different color)
-other cool stuff I cannot think of right now

[Brandon Sheley]

just make a usergroup ;)

[smindsrt]

yeah but how can I make the private forum display on the homepage the category but none of the posts???

I dont understand your question....

[smindsrt]

I would like to have a forum section for premium members. I would like the section name visible but not any of the posts.

i.e.
Premium Members - Private

All other members would be able to see the section but not the actually threads.

Like now I have sections for moderators but you cannot see them unless your a mod. I want people to see there is a forum there just not have the ability to read the posts.

Use Forum Permissions for that.

with your forum permissions, you can determine who can see what.
For instance, people can see the forum name, but not the forum's contents.
That's what you're wanting right?

AdminCp->Forum & Moderators ->Forum Permissions -> and choose which forum you want to hide or view and choose which usergroup can see.

I use this on my industry News, non-logged in/guest can view forum topics, but not content, everyone else who logs in can read.

I use it on my adult site as well

There is also another option you might want to check:

AdminCP >> vBulletin Options >> Forum Listings Display Options >> Show Private Forums

Tweak it as you please.
