"Welcome, guest!" when logged in...


Recommended Posts

At the bottom of the forums, there is the "Welcome guest!" bit at the bottom, even when I am logged in.

 

 

 

If you dont know what i mean, i mean this bit:

 

Welcome Fellow Scapers

That'll be a massive usergroup lol... We'd be better off this hard coding it into the layout with a if($_SESSION) thingy... But then again, is it really that needed?

What is needed surely is hiding all the forums from logged out people? yes/no/maybe. At the moment the whole section is practically useless, its right at the bottom of the page no new person is gonna see it before they register

IMO yea... either we should show all the posts, or just hide all other forums than the announcements and the welcome guests... But yea, I talked with the admins about it, and they don't really seem to be wanting to do much about it...

Wasn't that how it was before (guests saw announcements and welcome fellow scapers?) That makes the most sense imho.

 

 

 

It might be a little confusing for people who arrive from links on tip.it/runescape (eg links to times discussion topics.) But perhaps the general board could be set to View=Reg, Read=All? I've nver tried that before, but I think that would work.
