Hello

I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction.?

I have 3.8.0 Beta and I am trying to set an "automatic password" to one of the boards?
What I got now is forumers PMing me asking me for the password and then I would PM them back with the same password over and over again. After doing this over 1000 times I can't anymore. Too time consuming and a never ending job.

Any advice?

Thank you.

Why use passwords when there are forum permissions. Safer that way to prevent people from using sharing the pw with random people.

The problem I have is that I have 10 boards and they are all registered members in the registered users group.

I want only 30% of all registered members of my forum to gain access to just 1 board so need some kind of access code, permisssion code? something that will only allow this 30% of those registered users in that 1 particular board.

Anymore tips? I am at a complete loss.

Where do I start? Forums and moderators in admin CP?

Thanks.
