Moderation limited to 1 forum

[flaserra]

Hello!
I would like to give moderation permissions to a group, but I want also that this permissions are valid also to 1 forum. How can I implement this?

Thank You!

That's the way it's meant to be done . You add the moderators through the form on the Forum Manager page in the Admin CP.

Admin - All Permissions
SMod - Moderation in all forums
Mod - Moderation in selected forums

I would like to create different moderator groups for different forums. Consider this case:

Moderator Group A (that moderates only Forum A)
Moderator Group B (that moderates only Forum B)

So I can't use default Moderator group. When I add new usergroup, I see the option Can Moderate All Forums (is Super Moderator), so if I enable this option, Moderator Group A can moderates also Forum B. I if disable this option, Moderator Group A can't moderate Forum A (for example I can't create new Post Announcement). So I don't understand how to create a new moderator group.

Could you explain me how to do this?

You just use the default Moderator Group. Add individual Moderators to moderate a forum through the FORUM manager. You will see the moderator column.

There is a hack/addon from 3.5.x that works correctly in 3.6.x, not sure about 3.7.x tho, do a search in the 3.5.x addon forum.

The hack will add a group to a forum so the whole group can moderate that forum you assign, tha way there is no need to go and setup 20 ppl manually.

Errr, seriously, do you need 20 moderators in one forum?

In my case, I do.

I'd also like moderation rights for that usergroup to inherit down through any sub-boards.

so:

forum a
= sub board a1
= sub board a2
forum b
= sub board b1
= sub board b2

I'd like moderator_group_a to have mod permissions on forum a and both sub board a1 and a2.

Similarly with moderator_group_b
