Giving permission for editing messages to a user
 

I want to give permission for editing to a user. How can I do this without making him a Supermoderator?

To edit what?

Editing forum posts in showthread.php pages

He would need to either be a moderator in that forum, or be a super moderator.

Indeed, either make him/her a local moderator or you will need a custom mod to give extra special permission for those actions to a certain user/s.

admincp/Forums & Moderators/Forum Manager in the drop down box pick add moderator
Moderator Usernames = put member name in this box
Change Moderator's Primary Usergroup to = leave this as is

You can then set his/her permissions or leave as is then save. Do this for all the forums you want them to mod

It does not matter what group they are in and they don't need to be in a mod or super mod group for you to do this

Thank all of you, you are very helpful. I'm gonna try these things...

Thank you, this solution worked...
