for unregistered users ?
I like to hide user-group 1,3 . Since i dont know how to do it ,i just removed these Forum Viewing Permissions for unregistered user-group.

Can View Others' Threads
Can View Thread Content

Which is really hurting Google traffic .

My VB version 4.1.5

I have been reading vBulletin Template Conditionals and its not getting me anywhere.

$string = preg_replace(/\[code\].*\[\/code\]/i, "", $string);

I think that'll knock them out of $string. Are you good with plugins?

EDIT: Wait a minute, let me work on that some more.

EDIT2:

Here we go (I think)

$string = preg_replace(/\[code\][\s\S]*?\[\/code\]/i, "", $string);

All wrong about that. What I posted would match bb code. You will need to match html for a code box

What are those things ? I have no idea where to use those ,other than adding some verification codes in header code of themes . I was used to marco hide plugin which isnt working anymore for last few months after VB 4.0.3 or something.

Those things with all the slashes? Those are regular expressions. They describe patterns for matching strings of characters and you can use the preg_replace function to replace one string of characters with another (or with a blank).

You'll never get anywhere with template conditionals, this has to be done at the php level. I'd work on it but I can't get a reliable connection to my server right now so I can't view any files.

Or do you mean plugins? Those are chunks of code inserted into files (well, sort of). Anyway you'll need one.

I would be very interested in this too, nerbert.

Thanks for taking the time to look at it.

Add usergroup Numbers to this
$bbuserinfo, 2,7,5,6,9 which are the ones whom i want to show the code contents like registred users,moderators etc. For others the code wont show as i have added <vb:else /> to that.


I'm testing it and i'll be looking for users complaints if they cant view threads with code.

[nerbert]

Hmmm ... that might work. I'm getting close but am having a glitch.

What about PHP and HTML tags?

[genxstan]

No idea about other tags ,i've taken note for the bbcode conditionals from this site,so i made this even though i never did that. Hope it works without bugs.
Will report back if code is problematic.
