Support Forum

We are using MagicMembers software for our membership site, and want to restrict access to our forum for some users who have only bought an intro product. I can easily identify them using this code:

$mgm_user_data = get_user_option('mgm_user');
if($mgm_user_data->account_type != 'AccountTypeA')
{

/* Restrict access here */
}

I have tried to put some of this code in sf_extend_current_user() , but can't seem to get the right mix of $current_user->member, ->guest, etc.

Any insight as to where I might put some code like this, to treat those members as if they are not even logged into the forum (i.e. show "You must be logged in to post", "Access Denied" screen)?

For these members, we don't even show a /forum link, but if they somehow make it there, we need to prevent all access.

I guess I'm not clear on how to make the connection between product purchased and SPF User Group. If I create two new SPF User Groups, one for each product, is there an automated way to add the users to their respective User Group? Currently, any user that buys a product has WordPress Role 'Subscriber'. Do I need to create a new WordPress role per product, and then have the WordPress role map to an SPF User Group?

Excellent, thanks for your help.
