Ok, I apologize for posting another issue so soon after I posted the first, but this is something else that has been vexing me for a few days. I have cbsubs currently set up to offer all users three plans (two of them being free plans, and one being a paid plan). What I am trying to do is to restrict access to a certain category (and therefore sub categories) of my Kunena forum to users that sign up for either the paid plan or one of the aforementioned free plans.

I did a bit of looking around on the forums, and it seems the right way to restrict access is to put the following bit of code into the "by URL parts" under "plans - integration - extensions": - "option=com_kunena&func=showcat&catid=XXXX", and I've done this. I've put this bit of code (obviously replacing "XXX" with a number) into the right sections in both the plans for which subscribed users should have access, and not the third plan (i.e. users signing up for that plan would not have access to that URL).

However, it is not working for me, and that category is viewable to everyone (guests and unregistered users as well). Do I need to change the Kunena settings to "private"? Or choose "Community Builder" under "access"? I doubt any of those are required though, as this particular category does not correspond to a group within Group Jive - - there are other categories for that purpose - - this is a seperate area just for the folks I've mentioned above.

FWIW, this isn't, or again, doesn't appear to be, an issue with Kunena/Group Jive integration as that is working fine (group jive users in certain groups can access only those groups on the Kunena forum, et al). . .

However, things work fine when I restrict other sections of the site (for instance, footer) to certain folks, so there MUST be something I'm doing wrong here.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

In Kunena you can change the access level of each category, so you can at least make these parts not visible to guests. You can also restrict access to certain user groups (which is what we do on our site, as CBSubs is overkill for our simple needs). As I have not experience with CBSubs, this might not work at all

Yes, I know - but what I want to do is restrict even registered members from viewing that section (excepting two categories of members). From what I thought, it should have worked when set up the way I mentioned, but it isn't - - so I'm wondering if I'm structuring the URL's or something wrongly?

Not sure, but like I said, the restrict is working for "extensions" as well as modules, so (unlike in my other thread) the issue is likely that I am entering in something incorrectly - though for the life of me, I can't figure out what I'm missing here.

Thanks a lot Kyle. Yeah, there might be a bug because I just tried doing what you said, but it did not work. I'll play with it a bit more but one question - - can you let me know how exactly to install the latest nightlies? Should I just download from the links you've provided and just install again via the CB/Joomla plug-in/extension managers without changing anything? I've currently got CB, CBSUBS and Group Jive installed on my test site. . .
