Solved Member groups permissions

Post by Dark_Kokiri 10/4/2009, 03:16

So I want to change usergroup permissions so that way certain groups cannot see the board...but I have no idea how to do that. Basically, I want some members to be able to view the restricted boards, but I dont want others to be able to see it.

An example? I have a board made specifically for moderators. I would like only moderators and Administrators to be able to see it. How do I do that?

Thanks!

EDIT: I would also like to know how to make it so that way the post count does not increase in a certain board. like...I have a forum games section and I don't want a bunch of spam-like posts to count towards their post count.

Simple. Here is an example ofa mod forum that members cannot see:

Go to admin panel >> General >> Forum >> Categories & Forums >> make a mod secion however you want it but however, make sure you set it to "Advanced Mode". After you're done, go to permissions. See the moderators group in the permissions? check the Moderators group by clicking on the permissions it wants, like read/write, look, etc.

Sorry about it it's complicated, but here's a simpler one if you didn't quite understand: Click here

Can they all access the admin panel? If that's the case, then you accidentally made themall access to the admin panel!
