    I've used different kind of adminboards, so I have some problems with limiting accessing on forums.
    I have five different groups; admins, moderators, general, council and a member.
    I want just highranked (admins, mods, generals and councils) writers to write in area called Council, and members to access an area "Secret information", which holds secret infos (surprise Very Happy) which is meant to just clan members.

    How to do that?

    Hello Rambotsi,

    Please read this topic on how to create such forums: https://help.forumotion.com/tricks-tips-f32/restricted-forums-t38399.htm

    My tutorial only outlines one group, but you can apply this to more than just one group. Very Happy

    EDIT: Perhaps I wasn't clear, but you need to modify the permissions of the particular forum in which you want to allow your group(s) to have access to.

    Regards,
