I am working on a CMS which is to integrate with VB. What I am doing is pulling in forums from the VB database into the CMS database so that the user can choose which forums for the CMS to post threads to. However, the problem I am having is that I don't know how to differntiate between a forum which acts as a category and one which allows posts. Obviously posting a thread to a forum which is a category is a waste because it would never show up.
I see the "forums" table has a "options" field which seems to contain settings for that forum. However, it is just an integer value and I have avsolutely no idea how to decipher that. How can I look at this number and determine what the settings are for that forum?
Thanks for some insight.
