User group legend problems.

Modifying a Group

To modify a group you need to
go to the same location again "Users and Groups >> Groups
Administration. You will see a page that looks like the below screen
shot. It shows all your groups. To modify any of the groups, click the
modify cog in the actions column, of the group you want to modify. Click save when done.

Spoiler:


Group Permissons

To
set group permissions you need to go to admin>>>users and
groups>>>groups. To see and set the permissions of any group,
you will see in the actions column (screen shot above), beside the
modify cog, a plus and tick symbol .
Clicking that will take you to the permissions page like the screen
shot below. You can then select which forums your group will moderate,
if any. Click save when finished.

Approving/Denying and Removing Group Members

When
a member requests to join a group you moderate, you will be sent an
email informing you with a link you can click that will take you to the
group requested. Alternatively you can check your groups at any time,
by clicking the 'usergroups' link or button in your forum navigation
bar. This will then show you a list of all the groups that have been
made (excluding hidden ones if you are not the administrator). You can
click on any group to see its members and at the very bottom of the
group page you will see any requests to join your group as shown in the
screen shot below. You can then choose wether to accept or deny a
member.



To
remove a member, you would need to click on usergroups in the
navigation menu and choose the group you want to remove members from.
Click it and then check the boxes of any members you want to remove and
click the remove button. Alternatively you are able to go to "Admin
Panel >> Users and groups >> Groups" and click modify in
the actions column. Under the group configuration will be a list of the
group members. You can again check the box for any you want to remove
and click save.

Showing your Group in the Legend

Your
group will only appear in the legend if the groups status is either
open or closed. Hidden will NOT show up. Also it will only show if
colour group members was chosen when making your group. If you are
certain that both these settings have been chosen, go to "Users &
Groups / User Options" in your admin panel and set "Colorize usernames"
to YES.

Colorize usernames : : Check it to yes, without doing that the groups wont appear on the legend.

Just one more question, how can I stop guests viewing the board that aren't registered?

Under permission's in the forum, untick the "Allow guests to vies & reply"
