I have tried to adjust the permissions of my moderators so that they are only moderators of certain sections of the forums rather than the whole lot. When i edit the user permissions and click save it immediately re checks all the boxes and allows them access to all areas again.....what is wrong?

I have also tried this with group permissions to block certain groups from certain areas but the same thing happens

I could really use some help with this urgently I will be on holiday in a few days and I would like to ensure that no one person can wipe the whole forum while im away, not that I think anyone would but always better safe than sorry

anyone have any idea why this wont work?

THANKS

Hi, I find putting "HELP!" in the title tends to get a response! Sorry I can't help with your query - I'm new myself.

You shouldn't have to put HELP in the title - this is a help forum. But ELITECASUAL, I too have experienced the same problem. I don't know what the answer is - but I don't think it is supposed to do that . . . another glitch, I suppose.

I had this problem too, all i did was stop the group from being moderating a forum and just have the member as moderator then add them to the group and it should keep them as a mod of just that room.

Hope that helps

yes this seems to be a problem with the forums. hopefully the techs will fix it soon.

any chance of sorting this within the next 18 hrs?

well let me say what caihlem would say. (one of his most famous quotes)

we cannot read the techs minds

cheers for nowt
