I've been asked to provide a private forum (within the public one) for a specific group of ppl. I need to provide 2 ways to access the forum - first by forum ID - easy!! second by Last name and membership number (if they have no forum ID).

I'm currently trying to find where abouts the code checks to see if the forum is private and password protected so I can write some more code ... I've searched for a few hours and come up with nothing

Anyone else know?

Here is the code which checks for private forums and allowed access (from topic.asp):


if mLev = 4 then
    AdminAllowed = 1
    ForumChkSkipAllowed = 1
elseif mLev = 3 then
    if chkForumModerator(Forum_ID, chkString(strDBNTUserName,"decode")) = "1" then
        AdminAllowed = 1
        ForumChkSkipAllowed = 1
    else
        if lcase(strNoCookies) = "1" then
            AdminAllowed = 1
            ForumChkSkipAllowed = 0
        else
            AdminAllowed = 0
            ForumChkSkipAllowed = 0
        end if
    end if
elseif lcase(strNoCookies) = "1" then
    AdminAllowed = 1
    ForumChkSkipAllowed = 0
else   
    AdminAllowed = 0
    ForumChkSkipAllowed = 0
end if

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

The function ChkForumAccess can be found in inc_func_secure.asp.
