I know if I wanted to I could make the pick which individual forum I want to be for members-only to see. However, most of the forums I have I'd like for guests to see as a way to encourage them to join and engage in the conversation.

Basically this type of code would be where only members can view the thread and guests cannot.

I also thought it might be a good idea to have a "staff-only" as part of this if it's possible.

Instead of a code, what about just making a board specifically for members-only chat? It could also be used as an incentive for guests to sign up and see what's being discussed

I know that I have the option to do that as stated in my post, but you're missing my point. I don't want to close off some of the individual boards to guests, but there are certain threads I would like closed off. I am not talking about a general forum. I am talking about a board for bands with different individual sections. I don't want to close off some of the individual band boards. I still want the guests to see those discussion and engage, but I have a plan for my members where I'd like certain threads to be closed off from guests. Think of it as like livejournal where you can make your posts friends-locked, but guests can read your other posts if they aren't. Only this would be members-locked. This would actually help organize my board for what I have in mind. If I were to make another board for what I am trying to do that would actually disorganize my board.

Ahh, I see what you mean. I'll get this to you after my exam today.

*Needs to get ready as the bus arrives in 10 minutes*

Thank-you!! ^^

Sorry, I'd missed this thread; I've got some work to get finished tonight, but if I don't get to it today then I will tomorrow.

I am still interested in this code. I just didn't know what to say.

I'm assuming you'd like this to work for multiple threads?

Yes, please.

I'll get to this soon.

Okay. *waiting*

Marc, you left in 'alert(1); alert(2):' ... not sure if it's intentional?

Oops, ran into a weird bug when coding it up; forgot to remove them.

Thanks Wrighty.

Oh! Thank-you!! =]
