I am using Snitz Forums 2000 Version 3.4.05, SQL Server 2000 and would like for the admin to designate the allowed categories the user is able to see at the time of approving the registration requests.
Is this feature available in the base install or a MOD? |

Access based on an access list is available only for forums. You need to change the Auth type for the forum, so that you can choose one of the values that allows you to specify the members with access rights to each forum (you must enable Private Forums in Admin Options).
If you plan to use the feature in several forums, I'd suggest that you use Nikkol's User Groups mod. It will make it easier for you to manage the feature. |

Ruirib-
Thanks for the reply. I checked my settings under the Admin Feature Config section. I have Private Forums turned on and the "Highest Level of Subscription" is set to subscribe by forum. This does allow me to assign the users to a specific forum, but only after there dB entry is moved from Forum_members_pending to Forum_members. What I am trying to accomplish is to assign users to a forum before the email notification is sent out. I hope that clarifies my problem.
The Nikkol's User Group mod may address this, but I have not been able to find it. Do you know of a link?
Thank you for your time.... |

Before approval a member is not a member, really, it doesn't even have an entry in the members table, so that is simply not possible. However, if all your forums are configured to auth type of allowed members list, the member won't be able to visit any forum before being added to the several list. Nikkol's mod does not address that issue, either.
I don't have a link to Nikkol's mod, search for it in the archive for the Mod W/code forum. |

| I beleive my best bet is to modify the register.asp code to add a insert statement once the user is verified with the key link. I appreciate your time. Thanks for your help. |

| Don't understand what you mean. After email verification, the user record is moved from the pending members table to the members table, so it looks like you want to do what is already being done. |
