First of all, gotta say thanks for the excellent code. Easy to follow and play around with.

I did fix the private forums with a nice little hack.

I modified 2 tables:
alter table fud_forum add private enum('Y','N') NOT NULL DEFAULT 'N';
alter table fud_users add private_access enum('Y','N') NOT NULL DEFAULT 'N';

Then I just added the following line to "thread.php" just in the beginning before the code checks if the thread needs a registerd user to be able to view it.

(right after this line: cache_buster(); )

if ($frm->private=='Y' && !($usr->private_access=='Y')) error_dialog('This is a Private Forum', 'This is a Private Forum, only invited users may view these forums.' , '');

All that needs to be done is to modify the admin interface to include the private flags for users and threads, so I dont have to go into MySQL everytime I wanna change it. Smile

This does ofcourse only work pretty easy so either a user can see all private forums, or not. It don't have any usergroup handling, but it works fine and shouldn't take any resources to mention since the $frm and $usr is already read anyway.

If it's interesting I can do the changes to the admin interface and post the changes aswell, otherwise I just leave it as it is for now untill I'm bored enough to dig around in the admin code.

Edit: Just corrected a minor typo in the code.
