Solved How to edit the permissions for a special topic?

Post by Simah November 20th 2008, 11:31 pm

I feel like im making a lot of topics here, but i need help and i could not find another topic with the same problem. Please direct me if there is one, and excuse me for my stupidness.

Well, i wonder how do i edit the permissions for a special topic?
I made one topic, which is supposed to be written in, but only by admins.
So i need to setup some permissions that only allows admins to type there.

Hoping for an answer, thanks.

It's ok, you are a new member and everyone needs to ask as much questions as possible. Anyways, are you talking about setting a thread's permissions where only a specific group can get access into it? If you are, then I do not believe it is possible. It varies by which forum it is located in. If the thread is located in a forum that you set where only, for example, only Moderators have access into, then no other group besides Moderators (and higher permissioned groups) can access into that thread.

Just lock the topic.
the admins will still be able to post when they want to, but not reg. members.

Well, my idea is to lock one single topic for all members except admins (because this topic is not supposed to be written in, only edited by admins).
This topic is laying in: Category>Forum>Topic. And i have only found permission options for a forum, not one single topic.

Lock that particular Topic, Simah.. do it via your moderator permissions and not actually making the FORUM locked.. via the Admin Panel.

So lock the Topic you want locked down via the Forum Topic itself, then only Admins can post/edit ec, and members can only see it.

You MUST have it as members can view locked topics though.

This will give you what you want.
