ok, i got it working this time, i re added the code, all people who have access to the particular forum have to enter a password, except admins. Is there a way to make it where admins have to enter a password too?

	if MemberID = UserNum then
		if mLev < 1 then
			chkForumAccess = false
		elseif mLev = 3 then
			chkForumAccess = true
		elseif mLev = 4 then
			chkForumAccess = true
			exit function
		end if
	end if


Look for the above statements within the function chkForumAccess in the same file and comment out the statement in red.

It is because of cookies. I made the changes in my post above(with code). Look for the statements in green and comment out those statements as shown.

Alternatively, you can add the following statement
Find the above statement in the code

Response.Cookies(strUniqueID & "Forum")("PRIVATE_" & rsStatus("F_SUBJECT")) = Request("pass")


Add this statement below the above sattement

Response.Cookies(strUniqueID & "Forum").expires = DateAdd("n", 20, strForumTimeAdjust)


20 is number of minutes after which the cookie will expire. You have to leave the statements in green uncommented for this to work.

To ask admins for password, you also need to do this. There may be some other files also, which will need modifications. Likely in active.asp, topic.asp, search.asp. It will be similar though.

File: forum.asp

Lines 164-166

Find the following statements

if strPrivateForums = "1" and (Request.Form("Method_Type") <> "login") and (Request.Form("Method_Type") <> "logout") and ForumChkSkipAllowed = 0 then
	result = ChkForumAccess(Forum_ID, MemberID, true)
end if


Modify as shown below

if strPrivateForums = "1" and (Request.Form("Method_Type") <> "login") and (Request.Form("Method_Type") <> "logout") then
	result = ChkForumAccess(Forum_ID, MemberID, true)
end if
