[Damien808]

I created a mod that will place a member into a group instantly when they donate money through PayPal... Everything is done automaticaly so I never even know who is and who isnt a member unless I check the group page that lists who is and who is not a member of that group...

Now what I am looking for is a why to hide banners from members of specific groups...

I read that you dont plan on doing this but suggested using ranks...

How would I hide banners from members of a certain Rank?
Is this similar to "Post Rank"?
I can create rankes based on how many posts a user has...
And after I do, there is nothing in the banner admin showing any of these ranks...

Could you help me out?

any user, can have assigned a special rank - you script should do this, when they recive the donation.

then in page_header

[FIND]
WHERE banner_active

[AFTER, ADD]
AND NOT ".$userdata['user_rank']."=RANK_ID

the special RANK_ID should be replaced with the value for the rank, your V.I.P. users get assigned when paying

I haven't tested this, but go ahead and try it - I would expect it to work..
for testing you may try with a fixed rank ID, witch you manually have assigned to a user - before proseding to let your script assign this to the user

btw. witch MOD have you got to automatic control your V.I.P. users with a payment from paypal.. ?

Anyone can confirm that this is working ?

Or isn't it better to do something like this (I don't know if the variable names are correct, it's just for the example) ?

Code: Select all

AND NOT ".$userdata['user_group']."=GROUP_ID
