Don’t Allow Non-Logged in Members to See Memberlist
Question: How can I keep Guests (non-logged in users) from seeing the member list in the forum?
Answer: You’ll need to make a slight change in your forum code to switch out a line in the logged_out code to reside in the logged_in code:
From the
{if logged_out}
{lang:welcome}
{include:top_bar_spacer}
<a href="{path:login}">{lang:login}</a>
{include:top_bar_spacer}
<a href="{path:register}">{lang:register}</a>
{include:top_bar_spacer}
<a href="{path:memberlist}">{lang:memberlist}</a>
{/if}
Remove the last line in this part of the template, and move it to the next grouping.
