Hi

Any help would be appreciated. For the record we are currently running VB 2.2.8.

Recently we setup a new forum area dedicated to posting News Items. Normal users can view posts but can't pass comment - the forum is purely a News Feed area. We set up a new user group which is basically News editors, ie. those who can post/edit.

All works fine, however, for some reason when selecting 'View New Posts' the resultant list specifically excludes the News Forum posts.

Hope this makes sense!

Cheers

David

I'm not sure how to help you there sorry, but just a note, instead of making a usergroup, Why not just edit the permissions for that certain forum? You can do this in the admin panel, and can select a type of user aka registered, moderator, admin, and decide what they can and cant do in that forum

Hi

Thanks for your reply. Unfortuantely your suggestion wasn't possible - basically only a select number of moderators can post in this Forum, therefore, we had to make a new usergroup which catered for these users only.

Thanks

David
