If Usergroup and Forum Id than

[xensor]

here this will/should work

Code:

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

<if (in_array($mybb->user['usergroup'], array(4,8,9)) && $forum['fid'] == 168) then> <span class="smalltext"> <a href="{$lastpost_link}" title="{$full_lastpost_subject}"><strong>{$lastpost_subject}</strong></a> <br />{$lastpost_date}<br />{$lang->by} {$lastpost_profilelink}</span> <else>Protected Forum </if>

putting the fid in a array when there is no need to can cause issues. sometimes it just better to have actually match the single fid and such.
