    From DesotoFireflite@VERT/VALHALLA to All on Thursday, June 09, 2022 16:20:42
    OK, I'm modifing my default.src to show a defferent level menu for a level 10 user. What Im trying to do is if the user is expert, it goes to the next section of the default.src after the snippit. If they are not expert, it check to see if they are level 10, if so, show them the level 10 menu, if not level 10, take them to the other levels.

    What it's doing is if expert mode, the bbs goes offline, if not in expert, all I see is the prompt, no menu. WHere have I gone wrong.

    ------------ Snippit -------------- ------ My Reasoning -------------
    # Display TEXT\MENU\MAIN.* if not in expert mode
    compare_user_misc UM_EXPERT 1. Compare for expert
    if_false 2. If not expert, find user level
    compare_ars level 10 3. comparing levels
    if_equal 4. if level 10
    cls 5. clear screen
    menu main_10 6. show level 10 menu
    else 7. If not level 10
    cls 8. clear screen
    menu main 9. show default menu
    end_if 10. end of user level comparison. if_true 11. if expert mode is true, goto ------------ End Of Snippit --------- next section of default.src

    Thanks in advance

    You have 3 if's in that snippet, but only one end_if.

    I think what you mean to write was:
    compare_user_misc UM_EXPERT
    if_false
    compare_ars level 10
    if_equal
    cls
    menu main_10
    else
    cls
    menu main
    end_if
    else
    ...
    end_if

    Notice there is an end_if for ever if.

    Ah, I see, I was looking so hard at what I was tring to do, I forgot a simple rule. I changed one other thing to make it work the way I wanted it to.

    I changed "compare_ars level 10" to "COMPARE_ARS LEVEL = 10"

    Now everything works. The "compare_ars level 10" was giving me everything level 10 and above, so the menu didn't change, but by changing it to "level = 10", it only gaves me the level 10 menu for level 10 users, and the regular menu for everyone else.

    Thank You so much for the assist.
