 Yeh, I probally put it wrongly. What I ment to put is, do things that cause the error message to show up and then just make your own translation due to what caused it. |

You guys have been helpful thank you. I think I spoke to soon when I said, I got it. I am finding I am only through half the battle on this one... and I'm feeling like it might not work and that it is a waste of my time.
The first change went successfully in pm_pop_members.asp... The mlev value was 0 and I set to 2.
I'm finding through testing that I must be missing a mlev value change in the following files possibly - pm_members.asp and pm_blocklist_members.asp ...?? I say that cause with the successful change the one thing I noticed is that they can still PM each other as the pm_member.asp still produces a list for them. Just for kicks to check it out, I thought maybe all the mlev = 4 then needed to be mlev = 4 or 3 then, but no change. The member can still PM another member.
I'm truly stumped??? Ok snitzers your experience, thoughts or suggestions are appreciated here.

Have a great day!

Jeff, I should have mentioned that when I changed mlev = 4 then I had only done so with the pm_members.asp... My thought was that if that is the page being called that allows members to still PM one another then that would be the one file needed the mlev change to make this work.
I can spot all the other mlev in the afformentioned files ok. Do you think the mlev needed to be changed on not just pm_members.asp, but blocklist_members.asp as well?
I will post the text copy if you want... just trying to save some time for you if its not needed. |
Have a great day!

| Personally I would set all mlev's to 4 in your case that way there is no confusion and only admins will be able to use it |

Jeff,
Ok, I did what you suggested and it has not made a difference, members can still PM one another. So I set it back to its original mlev value.
I have tried everything. It seems that it might just be one of those things where to try to accomplish this might mean re-doing the code in the PM itself, which I cannot do yet.
I think I will stop trying to do it this way and do a little homework... who knows maybe I can turn up something.
Anyway, thank you all for your responses. I appreciate it. |
Have a great day!

if mlev > 2 then Response.Redirect("default.asp")
Put that in every PM file, if a non admin tries to pm it will redirect them to the default page instantly |

Actually, that will redirect everyone who is an admin or moderator... you'd want:
If mLev < 3 Then Response.Redirect("default.asp")
Might also want to be careful where you put something like that... |

Don't worry, even the best of us slip up on the simple stuff from time to time.  |

AnonJr, was this meant for me to be careful with the code you posted or was that meant for leesh695 and the code that leesh695 posted? |
Have a great day!

Woudln't it actually be If mLev > 3 ?
I think the code Anon did will only let members and guest pm and not moderators and admins. But I did just wake up. |

The code I posted will redirect anyone with an mLev less than 3 (i.e. not a moderator or admin)
I was saying to be careful with where you put the code to redirect those with an mLev less than 3. You may end up blocking access to more than you intended to...
Just make sure you've got a regular user account to test with and test it within an inch of its life. And then test some more. |

Sorry should have read the code more carefully that was posted.  I forgot it was a redirect not a check on status to proceed. Ignore me I am going back to work now |

Don't worry - its nothing a good cup of coffee can't fix.
A friend of mine from college used to do the morning run for Merrita bread, and then he'd be in class at 0800... near the end of class he'd always joke that he had too much blood in his caffeine system. |
