I have finally finished my forum but before I open, I want to make it so these custom pages I made cannot be viewed by guests. How can I do so? I'm sure there's a code snippet that'd do it.

How or with what do you have done your custom pages?

I used this plugin to make them:

Try installing the ban list page. If you do then you will see the code for excluding guests which you can adapt to your own page

http://community.mybb.com/thread-63357-p...#pid474410

in my custom page I have the set up as so:

<?php

global $headerinclude, $header, $theme, $footer, $lang;
// line below can be commented out to allow guest viewing
	if(!$mybb->user['uid']) error_no_permission();

$template='<html>
<head>
<title>'.$pages['name'].'</title>
{$headerinclude}
</head>
<body>
{$header}

<--my HTML-->

{$footer}
</body>
</html>';

$template=str_replace("\'", "'", addslashes($template));

add_breadcrumb($pages['name']);

eval("\$page=\"".$template."\";");

output_page($page);

?>

	</body>
</html>

How can I edit that so guests cannot view it? And can I also make it so they need a certain amount of posts?

You need to use php in the page (like in the snippet I posted). If you need to specify post count then you can make that a usergroup (once have posted x amount of posts are in a new group) and then make that a requirement, assume that 1 and 7 are guest and newbie members.

if (in_array($mybb->user['usergroup'] , array(1,7)))error_no_permission();

So your page could use this:

<?php

 global $headerinclude, $header, $theme, $footer, $lang;
 // line below can be commented out to allow guest viewing
     if(!$mybb->user['uid']) error_no_permission();

 $template='<html>
 <head>
 <title>'.$pages['name'].'</title>
 {$headerinclude}
 </head>
 <body>
 {$header}

<h1 style="text-align: center; ">

Thanks, I got it to work with that code snippet you posted. Works perfectly. I made a usergroup that you automatically get promoted to when you hit 10 posts. So now I made it so you need to be in said usergroup to view the page.

Works a charm. Thanks guys!
