Okay I've seen a lot of demand for this so decided to give it a shot. It is still in BETA so please don't use it without taking full backups etc! I will release a final version in a week or so.

It was developed on v2 beta 3 but I would imagine it would work on any v2 beta.



1. Add a field to the forum table called "password". Make it CHAR of 50 characters. You can also run this SQL statement:


Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------




forumdisplay.php
Put this on line 33:


Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------



showthread.php
Insert on line 114:


Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------



admin/forum.php
Line 94:


Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------



Change line 129 from:


Code:
---------------
Code is only visible to licensed users, and only when logged into the forums.
---------------



to

Change line 119 from:

Change line 242 from:

---------------



to

Templates
Add a template called error_passwordrequired. In it should be this:

A password is required to enter this forum. Please enter it below: <br>
<form action="forumdisplay.php" method="POST">
<input type="password" name="password">
<br>
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="dopassword">
<input type="hidden" name="forumid" value=$foruminfo[forumid]>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

You can use phpmyadmin or do it from command line if you have shell access to your server :)

Do you have telnet or SSH access to your host?

Put this in a file called pass-install.php
and upload it to your admin dir, now call it from your browser to install the sql for this hack, after installed, delete pass-install.php.

Hopefully this will help

I haven't tried but I doubt it, you'll need to upgrade to 2.0.x

No. But someone released a hack similar but it has bugs that were never fixed.

Hey all.

Have a slight problem with this hack. I've done everything it wants but when I try to specify a password it just won't remember it and doesn't prompt me for a password when I try to go into the forum I just placed a password on.

Any ideas? Any help would be appreciated. :)
