Posting in the parent!

[ItsLouie]

Hello there!

I am just wondering if this is possible... I am currently using Nabble as the forums on the website of the company I manage. I am having one problem though. I do not want people posting in the parent directory. I have set up folders for specific things but am not sure of how to stop people from posting in the parent directory (The one that is shown when people first open the forum). Is this possible?

Regards,

Simply remove the "Create_topic" and "Reply" permissions for ALL groups in your parent/root application.

All your sub-forums will then inherit these permissions, so in each and every sub-forum, go to the permissions screen and add back those permissions for the groups you want to be able to post.

For example, you might want to have all sub-forums disallowing "Anyone" from posting, while on some others you can add those permissions for "registered" users, and if you have some premium or special customers, that you have placed in a "Members" group, then still other sub-forums would give them those permissions while still not allowing "Registered" users to post or reply.

Note sub-forums always inherit the permissions set for their parent unless you over-ride them with more local permissions.
