What i am trying to do is set Vbadvance so that when you are not logged in and are a guest to have the main page show the guest section of my forum.

Right now my vb advanced is setup so when you are logged in the center section is the latest threads. But when you are as a guest there is nothing to show becouse all of the forum other than a guest thread is hidden. What i would like to do is have that guest section show up when not logged in. I was thinking i could setup a new page for the center colum but i don't know how to link it to show the forum. If i could just get the forum to showup it would work fine seeing that they would only see what they have rights to.

Other question would be can i just set somehow that a guest would see a page and not the main? I have a php page setup to the forum index.php file. how could i have them see that first?


I am probobly working to hard on this and there is a simple fix.

thanx

Sorry, but there are not any options to redirect guests to a different page. You could do something like changing the permissions for the recent threads module so that guests do not have permission to view it, and then create a new module with your message for guests and set the permissions so that only guests are allowed to view that module.

could i creat a module that would show the forum? If that was possable i could cut it that module off to everyone but guests........ I have a guest section and would like to show it on the main page for them.


I am still thinking....

Sorry, but as far as I'm aware there are not any modules that will display your forum.
