I have just made a vbulletin forum but i do not know how to set permissions when anyone comes to my forum he can not post, open thread or any thing else normal registration I want to know how to allow them to make new posts and open new threads. Kindly help me to resolve my problems!
Yes I have gone to admincp but where is the permission setting option as who can make post, who can create threads or how many posts he needs to open thread is this a problem because i have not registered version?
First, you can set general permission for usergroups like Guests or registered members. These settings are in "Usergroups" > "Usergroup Manager" > Edit Usergroup (e.g. Registered Members) Second you can set permissions for each forum individually. These settings are in "Forums & Moderators" > "Forum Permissions" You can either set permissions for each Usergroup on a category basis (red for modified) and then inherit it to all the forums in this category (yellow for changed and inherited), or you can modify it for every single forum and usergroup. (If you change permissions on a category or forum you need to set it to "Use Custom Permissions" at the top while editing) Third you can set permissions for each individual user. Search for the User, edit him/her and then at the drop down box at the top left click on "Edit Forum permissions (Access Mask)" and set his/her permissions to what you want it. Hope this helps StarBuG ps: It is complicated at first but after you understand the way vBulletin works, it becomes easy and very powerful pps: If you have a lot of forums try to use the "Permission Duplication Tools" for Forum permissions, it makes your work a lot easier
Man I have done the same way and set every thing to yes including post and thread options for registred users. But when I go to make a post or open thread it says you are not allowed and may have restrictions by admin. Is there anything to do with registered users?
Thanks guys, Its now working. The problem was on email confirmation setting on the behalf of admin. Really thanks for such kindness. I am really impressed from the cooperating behavior of people on this forum......
