Force Style for Selected Usergroups
![]() Developer Last Online: Jun 2013 ![]() ![]() ![]()
Please click Mark as Installed if you are using this hack.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: This hack has now been discontinued - this means that while it will remain available for download and use, there will be no further updates as this thread is no longer monitored. I am also not interested in doing paid work requests to update this hack at all. What Does This Hack Do? It is a update of my v3.8.x hack available here, designed to work with vBulletin v4.0.x. This hack allows you to force a style to a usergroup via usergroup permissions, so this means that you can force different usergroups to different styles (previous versions of this hack only allowed you to apply only 1 style to a set of usergroups/users). Scenario The setup on my forums is that I use the default style as the parent to all my other styles which makes modifying the templates easy for me, I just edit my default style and the child styles inherit the changes. I wanted to use a child style as the standard style for visitors and members, but not have them have a choice of the default style at all, but as soon as you logged out you were presented with the default style that you did not want guests to see. This hack rectifies that. It also allows you to let others use the forum wide default style (selected via Style & Language Settings -> Default Style in the vBulletin Options of the AdminCP) while forcing the usergroup(s) to the one style you selected. Frequently Asked Questions Question: What if you need custom style permissions as well?Answer: This question has been asked a few times: What if you need custom style permissions so that you can control which usergroups see/select what styles? The hack I use is Andreas's Restrict Style to Usergroup hack which he released for v3.5.x. It is because of that hack that this one exists, and I have tested it on v3.5.x, v3.6.x, v3.7.x, v3.8.x and v4.0.0 Beta, and it works for all five versions and works fine with my hacks as well. vBulletin Version Compatibility This hack can only be used with v4.0.0 and later versions. For the v3.8.x version of this hack, which will also work with v3.7.x and v3.6.x - check here. For the unsupported v3.5.x version of this hack - check here. Install/Upgrade/Uninstall Instructions The readme.txt instructions file is included in attached .zip file. Version History v4.0.002 - Friday 12th March 2010 -- Final v4.0.x release -- Released at Wolfshead Solutions on Friday 5th March 2010 -- Fixed: Style not being enforced in vBulletin v4.0.2 and above v4.0.001 - Saturday 28th November 2009 -- Initial v4.0.x Release -- Changed: Plugin (removed forcing style on users - does not work at the moment) -- Changed: Hack name (used to be called "Force Style for Selected Users or Groups") -- Added: readme.txt file -- Added: VersionHistory.txt file -- Removed: 1 phrase -- Removed: 2 AdminCP settings -- Removed: 1 Bitfield setting Thanks Thanks go out to Paul M who gave me permission to use some of his install code.

I haven't installed it yet but wondering what happens if user is in more than 1 usergroup. Is there a way to determine primary style in the case user is in 2 groups?

It will use the style of the primary usergroup - as members can be members of multiple secondary usergroups, but only one primary usergroup.
