    Solved How to make separate topic sections for forums

    Post by Abhi09 May 10th 2011, 3:52 am

    How do you make separate sections for topics? like the warnings and post sections on here: https://help.forumotion.com/f46-other-problems
    This may be obvious but I really don't know how to do it... Help appreciated!

    what do you mean the stuff at the top of the page?
    they are stickies, when you create a post in any section/forum you have the option to make a sticky or announcement at the bottom of your subject board.

    I would just have the permissions set for your forums to allow only admins and moderators if you wish to allow mods.

    Hi, please go to:

    1. Administration Panel (advanced mode)
    2. General Tab
    3. Configuration (on the left, under Messages and e-mails)
    4. Select "Separate announcements and stickies from the messages : With a table"
