This looks quite promising. Can you check permissions? For example, if you create a custom Admin CP - can you check the currently logged in users permissions to see if he's an admin to make sure they can access it?

Looks good. You should probably include the captcha check on login otherwise your opening up brute-force problems.

What do you mean by this?

require_once 'relative/path/to/the/forum';

What file are you supposed to load?

[No0oB]

Oh right.
I should change it to global.php

About Admin Permissions:
There is a function, which checks for user permissions (isSuperAdmin), so this might be what you are looking for. The script cannot check for forum permissions (yet).

About the captcha:
I will have to create a new function to leave the flexibility, as it is quite hard coded in your file. It already accesses $mybb->input when checking the captcha, so I will leave this to a new function to validate the captcha. I will see how I can fix that brute force security issue. Will be in the next version

i uploaded this and it isn't showing in the ACP

[No0oB]

Because it is not a plugin, but it is a php class you can use as a developer.

[JonathanP]

oo, that's why, my bad

[DougSD]

Thanks

I may use this in the future.

This is a wonderful component. Thank for the time and work. I will definitely have some use for it in the near future.
