I have a function on my web site that, at this time, only the admin user can access.
I would like to allow this capability (module) to a select group of registered users, as well as the admin, but I do not wish the selected users to become admins. Making any sense?
Basically, I would love to create group in the Administration function, give it a unique name, assign users to that group, and limit access to a specific module to that group.
I can see how to create users groups in the phpbb forums, and need to be able to do something "similar," but at the nuke level.
do a search for nsn groups...that allows for the ADMIN to select users and a group moderator to oversee that group.
uing the modules interface...u can assign things to the group.
In otherwords..u can sleect certain downloads to only be accessed by that group, u can even select modules to only be accessed by that group.
no biggy easy as can be to set up and operate.

I think at this point i am "close" but not sure exactly what is left to do. There were some items in the package required to "edit to core files" that I assumed also need to be applied, but there were no instructions. However, I applied them as I thought best (replacing existing YOUR ACCOUNT module files, etc.
However, there were a number of changes to be made to mainfile.php. I believe I have inserted all the changes properly, however, when I use that file as my production instance, my web site never pops up. When I revert to my old main, it works fine.
Does the NSN site actually have a "forums" group where I might submit this type of issue? I cannot seem to find it. I was hoping someone might look at my mainfile and see if applied the changes correctly?
Thanks for any help. Otherwise, I will just have to give up on this functionality (which would have been real cool). I had not been able to get to the step on how to apply the user group capabilities to be able to limit running of certain modules, but assume that would have been apparent had I been able to get the thing working.
i need to know the type of nuke ur using and the patches already applied and ill be sure to show u the whole mainfile and then u can just copy and paste it...let me know

Not 100% sure about the patches, but I am at 7.8, and I believe I have patched to 3.2 (chatserv's). I never quite understand the patch levels (like, why the are not 7.8.3.2, so I may not be expressing this correctly.
PHPBB is running at 2.0.20, if that has any impact....
I was not able to get that too work. I commented out the sentinel parts (not sure if I did to much/too little, but I believe I commented out the right sets of lines (between the {}'s) related to the two sentinel.php instances.
Also, not sure, but my posting of the content does not seem to work, so will shoot you a link to my modified mainfile.php (ie, your file, with what I believe are the sentinel lines commented out).
That made sense to me, as I assume if I did not have the sentinel files, the code below these tests would not heve been executed, anyway. However, I posted the intact file, and still no go. I turned on the debug switch in config. php, and I see this error:
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare phpaudit_exec_socket() (previously declared in /var/www/vhosts/circle-of-tyrants.com/httpdocs/themes/Inferno/theme.php:36) in /var/www/vhosts/circle-of-tyrants.com/httpdocs/themes/Inferno/theme.php on line 36
So I am thinking, "Is it possible that my theme is using a common function name, also expected to be used by NSN groups?" (Inferno is my purchased theme, from Destine).
To test this, I switched, instead, to the default Odyssey Theme, and got this error, instead. Different declaration, but same result. Ideas?
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare opentable() (previously declared in /var/www/vhosts/circle-of-tyrants.com/httpdocs/themes/Odyssey/tables.php:15) in /var/www/vhosts/circle-of-tyrants.com/httpdocs/themes/Odyssey/tables.php on line 14
Stumped at what to do at this point.....Can't believe I would be the only person to ever run into a theme conflict with NSN groups....if you are redeclaring global function names.
seems that in installing things...some stuff was left out majorly...how far slong on ur site are u...if not that far...try evaders nuke or ravennuke 7.6 i kinda think ud be better off like that in the event..see theirs only so much i can tell u without getting into the site and testing it myself. But if ud like to keep the nuke u have...pm me on yahoo and ill work on ur site..ill need ftp cpanel and admin access..but by the end of the day...ill have ur site functional completely...ur choice.

I think that is a great offer! I cannot afford to pay you, but I could provide you the access.
I have had the site running for a couple of weeks, and have added a few things (modules for gaming, etc). It would be great to keep the forum content, if possible, but not 100% mandatory. My next plans were to get a "visual confimation" code going so that spambots don't kill me, and then, get sentinel going. That was about it, over and above what is already there.
Based on above, would you suggest a total rebuild with one of the other packages (I am not hung up on what I have...)? I happen to have a second web server (slightly different domain... .org, vs .com, for staging, testing purposes like this, altho there are some fun things about changing the domain that scare me, when I go into production).
If you are willing to take a swack at it, I could send you the info under private message, whereever you might suggest. THANKS!
