MyBB Community Forums

Hi,

Is it possible to limit access to the syndication page? I am interested in blocking guests from using it and I did not see anything in group permissions about it.

Thanks,

you can add code like below in the syndication.php file after require_once "./global.php";

if(in_array($mybb->usergroup['gid'], array(1, 5, 7)))
{
    error_no_permission();
} 

(group IDs -: 1 --> guests | 5 --> awaiting activation | 7 --> banned)

Or if you want to use a plugin (better as compared to edit core file) then: http://yaldaram.com/thread-6601.html

Hi,

@.m.
Awesome and thank you once again.

@Yaldaram
I will give it a try and thank you for the intel.

I added that and could not seem to get it to work.

^ if user group IDs are not changed then it should work - can we have your forum URL

On .m. 's code, try this;

if(in_array($mybb->user['usergroup'], array(1,5,7)))
{
   error_no_permission();
}

Also make sure you're adding it to misc.php file (because syndication.php is not directly used in the process) just below the following code;

$plugins->run_hooks("misc_syndication_start");
