phpBB force login hack
By admin | December 16, 2008
To set up a private forum in phpBB, you could simply make all the forums “No Access” to guests and bots. But if they can still view your member list and profiles, that is a security leak. Here is a patch to remedy that by forcing the guest or bot to login before they can see the forum:
- Open up index.php from your phpBB installation.
- After line 25 (“$auth->acl($user->data);“), add the following code:
// Hack to disable anonymous viewing
if ($user->data[‘user_id’] == ANONYMOUS || $user->data[‘is_bot’])
{
login_box();
} else { - After the line “page_header($user->lang[‘INDEX’]);“, add the following code:
// end hack to disable anonymous viewing
}; - Re-upload index.php to your web server. Don’t forget to clear your cache and log out to see the effect.

I’m really enjoying the design and layout of your blog. It’s a very easy on the eyes which
makes it much more enjoyable for me to come here and visit more often. Did you hire out a

Hi there would you mind letting me know which
hosting company you’re utilizing? I’ve loaded your blog in 3
completely different browsers and I must say this blog loads a lot faster then most.
Can you recommend a good hosting provider at a honest price?
Kudos, I appreciate it!
