cant find mod i had before

yes, im looking for a mod I had before (about 6 months ago) where you could make it so only people within certain user groups could see/access certain boards

so if user group admin logged in they could see and access "playground" for instance but it a regular user logged in they wouldnt even see it.

i tried searching for it but I dont see it.

any clues?

I believe those restrictions are in place for both technical and security reasons.

hrm, well theres gotta be a way regardless.. i post on a ubb forum as wall and theres no problem with that as far as i know.. anyhow even if you cant change your core username but rather your "displayed name" it would be fine.

thanks

jep - so registering with usernames like $lick are not a so good idea... (unix for ex. can't create files with special characters)

But you can change the name which is displayed - go into yr profile and change the name there Smiley

[edit]
oh you was faster than me Smiley

i'm not sure but try this (before SAVE PROFILE.PL!!!)

Open Profile.pl

searchfor
Code
Select All
&fatal_error("$txt{'240'} $txt{'68'} $txt{'241'}") if($member{'name'} !~ /^[\s0-9A-Za-zöäüÖÄÜßñ\[\]#%+,-|\.:=?@^_]+$/); 


replace with
Code
Select All
&fatal_error("$txt{'240'} $txt{'68'} $txt{'241'}") if($member{'name'} !~ /^[\s0-9A-Za-zöäüÖÄÜßñ\[\]#$%+,-|\.:=?@^_]+$/); 



hm... i hope that is it but attention: i havent tested it with my board  Shocked


Greetings

forgotten a little "\"

this should be the code:
Code
Select All
	&fatal_error("$txt{'240'} $txt{'68'} $txt{'241'}") if($member{'name'} !~ /^[\s0-9A-Za-zöäüÖÄÜßñ\[\]#\$%+,-|\.:=?@^_]+$/);
