I am using vBulletin v3.6.8 and i have some content on my forums/portal that has been developed by myself. So to prevent the likelihood of the code escaping easily and being duplicated i'd like to place a peice of BBCODE, so that users have to be either registered or signed in to view the content of the post.

If anyone can post the code here that'd be awesome

Regards,
Nick

Instead of creating a new [ hide ] ... [/ hide ] bbcode,

would it be fine for you if the existing [ code ] ... [/ code ] tags are modified
to hide the content from unregistered members ?

[MuscleManiac]

anyway would be fine mate...i would just like to know how to do it.

Thanks for replying quickly

[Shadab]

okay. i got it.

Open the bbcode_code template of the appropriate skin.
Delete everything it it, place code given below and save.

HTML Code:

<div style="margin:20px; margin-top:5px">
   <div class="smallfont" style="margin-bottom:2px">
      $vbphrase[code]:
   </div>
   <pre class="alt2" dir="ltr" style="margin: 0px;
      padding: $stylevar[cellpadding]px; border: 1px inset;
      width: $stylevar[codeblockwidth]; text-align: left;
      height: {$blockheight}px; overflow: auto">
<if condition="$show['member']">$code
<else />Only registered members can see this code.
<a href="$vboptions[bburl]/register.php">Click here to Register.</a>
</if>
</pre>
</div> 

Now do the same for bbcode_code_printable template.
The code is :

HTML Code:

<div style="margin:20px; margin-top:5px">
   <div class="smallfont" style="margin-bottom:2px">
      $vbphrase[code]:
   </div>
   <hr />
   <if condition="$show['member']">
      <code style="margin:0px" dir="ltr" style="text-align:left">
         $code
      </code>
   <else />
      Only registered members can see this code.
      <a href="$vboptions[bburl]/register.php">
         Click here to Register.
      </a>
   </if>
   <hr />
</div>

awesome cheers mate....

[Shadab]

Welcome buddy !

Report here asap if you encounter any problems
regarding the implementation of the code.

[MuscleManiac]

arrrghhh it didnt work mate, it still displays the code inside the tags..

[Shadab]

What error did you encounter ?

I tried it here in GeekPoint forums just before posting it for you.
And it worked for me when i tried viewing the code unlogged-in.

[Shadab]

Do you have multiple styles installed ?

If yes, then you have to perform these 2 template edits in each and every skin installed.

[MuscleManiac]

i have multiple styles installed...should i install this code on both the default template [silver template when vBulletin is first installed] and the template i am currently using [which is the one i have already done the above with]?
