Building a support forum

[matthewtimothy]

I am building a support forum for a friend and I was questioned if it was possible that a post can be made, but only the author and admin/mod can view it. Can this be done or someone be able to send me somewhere to learn how to?

there's a MOD but it's abandoned....

Maybe one can check to see if it still work and get it into the mod database

That would be cool. Still learning and hate to tell others it works and turns out it doesn't

OIpen viewtopic.php
find:

Code: Select all

// Start auth check

before inject this:

Code: Select all

//You cant read this nub...
if (!$auth->acl_get('a_') && !$auth->acl_get('m_') && $user->data['user_id'] != $topic_data['topic_poster'])
{
	$index = append_sid("{$phpbb_root_path}index.$phpEx");
	meta_refresh(5, $index);
	$message = $user->lang['NO_AUTH'] . '<br /><br />' . '<a href="' . $index . '">' . $user->lang['RETURN_INDEX'] . '</a>';
	trigger_error($message);
}

Open language/en/common.php
find:

Code: Select all

	'NO'						=> 'No',

after add:

Code: Select all

	'NO_AUTH'					=> 'You do not Have Permissions to Read this Topic',
	'NO_AUTH_RETURN'			=> 'Return To Index page...',
