Forum and Sub forums question
 

On my site, I have a Forum called "Marriage Family and Religion" Now this has a sub forums called:
Marriage
Family
Religion
My question is how do I stop people from posting on the parent forum. I want them to post only in the subforums so that if you have a marriage topic, you post in Marriage and Family in Family. But because the Post New Thread icon is below this subforums in the main forum, some people still post on the main forum instead of the subforums.
You can see exactly what I mean at http://www.nigerians.us
It is a new site about 20 days old so I usually clean up the thread and move it to the right place but as the site grows, this might pose a problem

Go to the edit form for the Parent Forum, and find:

'Forum is Open' and set to No. This should prevent users from posting in that forum - but still allow posting in the subforums. :)

Thanks.
I will give it a try. I initially thought that would affect the sub forum as well.
