Help with usergroup permissions

**harmor** · 11-06-2006, 08:02 AM

This is ofr my vHosting hack. If you help me solve this I'll code it into the free version.

I have made some custom usergroup permissions for a hack a few months back and they worked. I recently added one more to the list which is the last one in the php bbcode

PHP Code:

  <bitfield name="canrequesthosting" group="hosting_permissions"  phrase="can_request_hosting" install="">1</bitfield>
                <bitfield name="canupgradehosting" group="hosting_permissions"  phrase="can_upgrade_hosting" install="">2</bitfield>
                <bitfield name="canchangehosting" group="hosting_permissions"  phrase="can_change_hosting" install="">4</bitfield>
                <bitfield name="canviewuserlist" group="hosting_permissions"  phrase="can_view_hosted_users" install="">8</bitfield>
                <bitfield name="cansearchsites" group="hosting_permissions"  phrase="can_search_hosted_sites" install="">16</bitfield>

Here is the php conditional I'm using

PHP Code:

  if(($permissions['hostingpermissions'] & $vbulletin->bf_ugp['hostingpermissions']['cansearchsites'] == 0))
    {
        eval(standard_error(fetch_error('cannot_search_hosted_sites')));
    }

I went into phpmyadmin and went to the "usergroup" table. The field the permissions saved to is "hostingpermissions" In the ACP --> Usergroup Manager" I only enabled the "cansearchsites" option. I checked the number in the "hostingpermissions" field and it was 16. Can you tell me why the conditional won't recognize the usergroup permissions?

Not really sure what you are trying to say here but you are using hostingpermissions and hosting_permissions which are two very different things in the eyes of the PHP parser.
