Sorry in advance for such a stupid question, but I can't find the answer anywhere.

Can I have a Security Level Specific Menu. I want to have a special main menu for users that I have to flag for security infractions, Level 20, that they alone will see. Is this possable. I know I can restrict menu commands on the main menu by using Ctrl-A codes by security level, but I prefer just making a special menu for this. Thanks in advance.

(this is baja talking)
you can throw something in real easy by doing
compare_Ars level x
if equal

and sending them to another menu if true.

I think your problem is all on the web though, isn't it?
this is happening on other bbses. I think the bots found a way through the echicken web

so i would just disable signups on the web and that should take
care of the issue.

Damn, I forgot all about that. These past few years, I don't think the Brain is working as it should... Thanks

You may be right, I decided to do that last night, and let everyone register on the bbs. I hope to put it in place today sometime.

In your command shell, you should be able to check the user's security and then show a different menu for each.

In JavaScript, you could do something like this:
if (user.compare_ars("LEVEL 50"))
{
bbs.menu("menu_50");
// Allow level 50 stuff
}
else if (user.compare_ars("LEVEL 20"))
{
bbs.menu("menu_20");
// Allow level 20 stuff
}

Ok, thanks. I got a handle on it. I was just making sure there was no security specific menus before I went this route. Thanks

That's not a built-in feature, but it would be easy to add to a/your command shell.

In JS, the logic would be like this:

if(bbs.menu_exists("main" + user.level))
bbs.menu("main" + user.level);
else
bbs.menu("main");

Thanks ROb, I think I have a handle on it now. I just wanted to make sure there wasn't something built in, before I tried to invent the wheel. My command shell is still in Baja, but I should be able to figure it out with what you gve me in js. Thanks.
