Okay so I made this site for a gaming clan, okay now when someone registers and activates it they can see all the forums. I want it so that when they register and activate it that they can only see some of the forums I have Made a new user group calld "applicants" (because they are applying for the clan) so can anyone help me please!!!

two ways, either modify the rights of the group so they can't see the certain forums you dont want them too. Or go into the general> forums and categories bit, and edit the permissions of all the forums you don't want that group to see.

kay but how do I make it so they start out as "applicant" when they first register so that they cant see them then once they get accepted then I change them to a different group. and how do I edit there rights?

You will have to create a new group and fix all that the way you want it, but make sure you put auto subscribe. Hope that helps.

okay I figured something that will work ::Solved::

sorry for the double post but I clicked edit and it wouldn't let me hit the solved button.
