Have some questions about my forum!

First topic message reminder :

Howdy,

I have a few questions, and will post them here and there on this topic.

How do you ban a member from your forum and only let them post in one topic and one topic only (kind of like a time out)?

How do you get your forum up on google, does it cost anything to do this, & how long does it take to get on google, if you can do this?

Well that is all the questions I have right now or that is on my mind right now.

Thanks!

1.do you mean the flood control?

2.you will need to wait for it to appear on google.

for your first question you wont ban them. you will just put them in a group with permissions to only post on designated boards you allow them to.

How do I do this

Thanks

Hello,

Navigate to:

Admin Panel
Users and Groups
Group administration
Call it Time Out or whatever you want

Save

All normal members will need to be in a group too.

Admin Panel
General
Categories and Forums
Modify all forums you don't want them to see.
Permissions
Untick the members and the Time out boxs
Tick the members group you made earlier

Save & Complete

Note, you can not change the permissions of a category, only the forums contained in a category.
