I need only registered members to post in guestbook

Is there any way to make it so that only registered board members can post in the guestbook?

put a .htaccess file in the dir?

Password protect the directory for your guestbook in your hosts cpanel. An example would be like this. http://www.ravenprom.org/content

The problem with this is that I do not have the passwords for all registered board members. The phpBB encrypts them. Even if it did not I would have to manually add each new member to the .htaccess file, a cumbersome process to say the least.

It would simply be easier to have a function to enable so that those who register to use the message board could then use the guestbook.

Well your stuck then.

And I always thought a "guest" book was for guests!
