I mean as in - There is no reverse "switch";)

You can of course manually change them;)

Thanks for the nice CP integration of Logicians code :D

umm good hack lol..

If you consider this, here is a thought for the new release:

Maybe you can add a new field to CREATE NEW FORUM screen to let you choose the forum you'll inherit its permissions. (At least a text box to enter its id, if you think its hard to compile the list automatically).

Also another one can go to "MODIFY FORUM" screen..

These might improve the usage..

I also take a look at the code (it has been a while I coded it and actually I didnt remember it well before checking it out) and I have noticed that as soon as you add the delete query in the begining you can use 1 script for both new forums AND existing forums. 2 codes are redundant (however does not harm either)..

Anyway just my 2 cents and thanks for the credits Chris..

No problem:)

And thanks for the ideas;)

I'll have a look into the "Create Forum + Inherit permissions" thing;)

What is it with me and all the younguns around here??? I am only in my 20's, yet i am starting to feel like Mrs. Robinson or something!!!!!!

:D

BTW: just a thought here...i mentioned it a LONG time ago, but no one ever bit.......

For many of us, it might prove useful to integrate this hack to allow for setting up custom options "templates".....and then upon creating a new forum, set it to the permissions for the template you want to use. For example, our site has review forums, discussion forums, and ad forums (lots of others, but MOST fall into one of the 3 above). Each has the same set of permissions. So, i could create a "review" template, and upon setting up a new forum, just select that template. That would eliminate those of us with 300+ forums having to wade through a drop down listing of all of them :)

Just a thought :)

Im not sure I follow...

Are you saying that you want a Dropdown Box, like with "Style Sets", for you to select what Forum permissions to use?

Sounds to me like you are following me just fine :)

I see...

I have been thinking about this for quite a while now...

I shall give it some more thought then, and see what I can come up with;)
