    Solved Restricting Posts to Members w/Particular Post Count?

    Post by huskyadmin February 1st 2012, 3:38 am

    Hi.

    I'm wondering if there is a way to restrict posting in a particular sub-forum to only those with a particular post count or higher?

    I'm sorry if this belongs in another forum! This felt like the best fit.

    You will need to create a group that has a post requirement. Then set the permissions for that group for each forum.

    Will I have to manually add all members whose post count reaches that threshold? Or once I set the parameters, will that automatically be done?

    Thanks for the fast reply!

    When you create the group, there is an option for autoscribe. Check the yes box, then under it is a box enter the number of posts to have for that group.
