Hi all,
Ok I found the codes for PunBB

Javascript: [In the homepage]

Code:


$(function() {
if (document.getElementById('logout') == null) {
var sCategory = 'POSITION OF THE CATEGORY';
$('.main-content:eq(' + sCategory + ')').addClass('hanckiprotected');
}
});


CSS:

Code:


        .hanckiprotected:after {
              background: none repeat scroll 0px 0px rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.7);
              bottom: 0px;
              content: "Forum Protected";
              font-size: 30px;
              left: 0px;
              line-height: 310px;
              position: absolute;
              right: 0px;
              text-align: center;
              top: 0px;
              z-index: 10;
        }
        .hanckiprotected {
              position: relative;
        }


How can I add multiple categories?

Just copy the same js but change the category id.
<i>what did u put in 'position of category??</i>

I think if i copy-paste the js code it should  be reaches the request limit due firing the server port but I am not sure for that. I think the better solution is to declare the sCategory variable as an array. In the number just put the number of forum category by start count them from the beginning the categories.

I want to hide my second category. I tried these codes but didnt work. I put "/c2" ...

[Van-Helsing]

This category http://prntscr.com/3jt3nk ?

[J0k3R^]

yeah..
if u type myplanet.forumgreek.com/c2-category
u see its the correct link but the codes from SocialAcademy arent working for me :S

[Van-Helsing]

So modify the js like this:

Code:


$(function() {
if (document.getElementById('logout') == null) {
var sCategory = '2';
$('.main-content:eq(' + sCategory + ')').addClass('hanckiprotected');
}
});

Good
now its working but its getting 'hidden' when im logged in aswell :S

Are you sure? Probably another js conflict it. I try it on my forum and its working. Try to clear the cookies on your browser.

To me also works fine. Probably its an other js making the error to you Jok3R^

Try to check your js console for errors or warnings in js.
Ok I found how to protect more than one forum categories.
Problem solved.
