Hi,

Sorry, I have a few questions !

I am using the following code to enable me to only allow registered users of the forum to see 'normal' asp pages:

' If user is not logged in (and has Guest status), redirect to the log in page

If intGroupID = 2 Then

Response.Redirect("/forum/login_user.asp?FID=0")

End If

This works fine to not allow guests access to these pages, but how can I modify it to allow registered members and members in private groups access, but not guests ?

I wondered if it is possible to protect an entire directory of files (that are available for download) and not just the page(s) that link to them. I am on a windows server.

I haven't installed the Web Wiz mailing list yet, but is it compatable with the forum: i.e. can a member modify their choosen email lists preferences by just being a member of the forum ? (Currently I am using a category of my forum for an email list !).

Thanks for your help,

Regards

You could write this:

<% If intGroupID = 2 Then %>

Content for nonmembers

<% Else %>

Content for members

<% End If %>
