New Forum-user Registration Options and Uploading Question?

[Questions]

1.  We have recently launched our forum and set it up that only registered users can create new topics to avoid spam.  Is it possible for someone to log in with a facebook account as many comment sections around the internet do or can they only log-in by registering through Nabble?  

2.  Is there any type of program in Nabble forums which prevent spam automatically in posts so we could allow people to post with out registering and not worry too much about possible spam?

3.  What exactly is the difference between a member and a registered user?  

4.  In regards to allowing others to upload video content to our forum.  Is there any kind of protection to avoid viruses being uploaded?  

5.  Lastly, is there a limit on how much space we are allowed for uploading content?  

Thank you for your time!!

Hi there Questions <-- Lol

1. For now, there's only one way to register, using nabble.

2. Depends on what is for you spam, but if non-registered users can post, there is no way to avoid spams.

3. You can give different rights(options > users > change permissions) to this members, for example create polls or unrestricted posting(you can change permissions in each sub-category(for example, if you want to have a section only for your trusted members)), you can move users to this group by 2 ways: visiting his profile and then "add/remove groups" or options > users > manage users & groups.

4. What do you mean? only youtube videos can be embeded in nabble.

5. No limit of content, but the max size for upload a file is 8 mb

Regards

Thank you so much for your responses!  We appreciate the time you too took to answer each question.  Looks as if the only follow up questions are:

F-1.  We did not realize only YouTube videos could be embedded.  Are there paid versions of Nabble which allow for actual uploading of videos instead of just embedding?  

F-2.  If we decide to allow all to post without registering and then change it later on to only those who are registered.  When those who have posted before come back to post again, will they receive an explanation as to WHY they are now being asked to register or simply a direction that they must be registered to use the forum?

Thank you again!!!

glad to help :)

F-1. You can upload any kind of files, included videos. i was talking about embedding.

F-2. They will see a page that says "you have to be registered to post here". Anyway, as I told you in my last post, you can change the permissions on each subcategory, so you can set sections where all can post(for example, introduce yourself) and others where you have to register to post.
