when i open PERMISSIONS -> Forum roles and creating new role, in the MISC setting, the first row shows

Code: Select all

Bah. Thanks for pointing this out :)
To fix it, open includes/acp/acp_permission_roles.php, find:

Code: Select all

$user->add_lang('acp/permissions');
and change it to:

Code: Select all

$user->add_lang(array('acp/permissions', 'mods/users_choose_displayed_forums'));
Then open includes/acp/acp_users.php, find:

Code: Select all

$user->add_lang('acp/permissions');
and change it to:

Code: Select all

$user->add_lang(array('acp/permissions', 'mods/users_choose_displayed_forums'));

When I change forum role settings (mark your new permission option as “yes”) and submit the form, it isn't saved (after refreshing this page it is still “no”).

Hi,

You haven't (properly, if at all) run the two SQL queries as listed in the installation instructions.

I have executed these SQL queries. They have been executed properly because corresponding row and field are present in the tables.

Nice mod. I might install it--although I've more-or-less achieved similar results by creating individual user groups that are set to disallow access to individual forums.

Ok this may be a very stupid question but i've been at it for half an hour and can't figure out. I installed the mod successfully (?), set permissions and everything. But where can the user choose not to view a certain forum. In the control panel? If so, I can't find it. I'd appreciate any help. Thanks.

hello,

great mod, also works in subsilver2-based style :D

but one question:

what i have to do so that new created forums not hidden?

i have created a new forum after installing and configuring this mod, now a user asked why he cant see this forum - after a short search i figured out, that this forum is automatic hidden and the user must aktivate the displaying of this forum first :(

i thinks that terrible, because if i create a new important forum, my users cant see this :evil:


please help!

THANKS


@ adiv_rulez:

if u installed this mod correctly u can find the option in your UCP -> Preferences (correct in english? or is it options???) -> Manage displayed forums

dont forget to purge cache ( i think its not needed - at least in my forum^^ - but do it ;) )
Sorry, my English isn't the best...

Hi, thanks for the help.
I tried reinstalling the mod and then it worked great (almost).
With the displaying of forums everything is fine but now when someone tries to register I get the following error:

Code: Select all

SQL ERROR [ mysqli ]

Field 'user_index' doesn't have a default value [1364]
I checked and followed through the fix in the knowledge base about "Doesn't have a default value errors" (

Code: Select all

http://www.phpbb.com/kb/article/doesnt-have-a-default-value-errors/
) but it still didn't work so I'm guessing that it's something else as this error occurred right after I installed the mod.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi, I have same problem but this solution don't suit for this MOD.
When I change

Code: Select all

$user->add_lang('acp/permissions');
and change it to:

Code: Select all

$user->add_lang(array('acp/permissions', 'mods/users_choose_displayed_forums'));
This line in ACP vanish (don't have it).

I have problem with set propitiate permission for users for example :
Admin have got all permitions for choose which forums he want to see but users not. Where can I find this option ?

Nice that selected forums can disappear from the forum index page and subforums from the view forum pages but some users prefer to browse via the active topics pages etc.
Not at the moment, but I'll look into having the option to hide certain forums from active topic pages and/or searches for a future version :)
Nice mod. :)

Any update or progress on hiding posts from hidden forums when using the active topic pages? That would be the icing on the cake.
