Is there any way you can link what lines you changed in each file? Unfortunately I am not nearly as well versed at php as you are

it's not a post by me but a quote of the tread that i link, like you i am just trying to found a solution, the link so :

www.bestofjoomla.com/component/option,co...w/catid,75/id,42569/

i think the real point of incompatiblity between J1.5 and fireboard for manage access is define in this tread.

by the way i post a answer / question in this tread one day ago and it was delete, so it surely the good way to resolve our problems to manage ACL lol

Well thank you for the post, I'll just have to take a bit more time and try to figure out what I can do to see if I can alter mine.


On a side note, I've had a couple of posts removed as well. One of which I completely understand for being removed, the others were questions.

So It works on J1.5

i try "ACL For J1.5 and Fireboard 1.0.4" on two of my local PC and my server

for the "ACL For J1.5 and Fireboard 1.0.4 Advanced" i just try on two of my local PC.

ACL For J1.5 and Fireboard 1.0.4

1 - Backup your files and your database

2 - In Mysql admin panel :

Code:

ALTER table jos_core_acl_aro_groups ADD group_id int(11) not null; UPDATE jos_core_acl_aro_groups SET group_id=id

3 - Enjoy, You can set forum level access with the Joomla ACL (Registered, author, publisher ect ect)

The "All Discussions" tab breaks this hack. Anyone can simply pick a topic from the list and see the content. I am assuming the only way to prevent access via the "All Discussions" tab is to remove it, however I am not knowledgeable enough to do this, so I may have to install a template that does not have the discussions tab. Too bad since I like the Default EX template.

Just found another work around - the Fireboad Search function! Type in a word from a 'private' topic and anyone can read the entire topic and see any attached files/images.

We will just have to wait until this is a core function, or switch to another message board. In my case I will most likely go right back to SMF

don't have this problem, the search work according to the acl.

I appreciate the feedback, however bandaging together a program that will support my company's livelihood is not very compelling.

We went back to SMF and its native ACL even though the login with Joomla is not unified.

Can't have it all

appears to be working fine except for:

Notice: Undefined index: id in /home/covenant/public_html/Joomla/administrator/components/com_fireboard/admin.fireboard.php on line 356

shown while viewing the restricted forums main page

Don't know what to tell you then. Weren't you leaving?

I've spent three hours looking for the answer to this situation...and I finally found it! Now I'm to try it.
But I will...I reinstalled everything with a new database. CB/FB/J1.5...followed all the directions...and yikes....no forums showing up for registered users.

I'm glad I didn't post my question and found the answer! But I am going to diligently follow your instructions...I'll be back next week...to post my results...
thanks...
Lucy.
