If you want a permissions setup that simply does not exist in the current release, please explain it like I'm an idiot, because I'm confused.

Sorry ! I'll start again

On my forum we have a Premium Members usergroup, and a Regular Members usergroup. I (and someone previously in this thread) wanted the permissons set so that Premium Members can throw eggs, and Regular Members can see the eggs but not throw them.

Changing the permissions in the admin cp didn't enable this. Although the permissions were set for Regular Members to view eggs, they couldn't see them unless the permissions were also set for them to throw eggs.

So, I followed your instructions earlier in the thread to change the plug-in code and use the phrase $eggavatar_button in the postbit template. I then wrapped a conditional around this code so that the button was only visible if you were a member of Premium Members.

So, although Regular Members have the permissions to throw eggs, they can't actually see the button to do so. This was the only way I could get it working so that Regular Members can see but not throw eggs.

Hope this makes sense!
