Permissions Issue

[Mum]

but that will change everyone in usergroup books, to be moderated in board b - regardless of if their primary group is registered, or troublemaker?

I don't want to moderate everyone in books, just those that are in books, where their primary group is troublemakers.

Try this:
3 usergroups (2 primary, 1 secondary)
Group1 - Always moderated

Secondary Group - Always Moderated and can see board B

Since secondary groups can't take away permissions (AFAIK), then Group 2 will not be affected, while Group1 will still always be moderated regardless of the board they're on.

well i set it as you suggested - however, that still won't work.

You can change this in the Forum Permissions > find forum (board B) > find usergroup (books) to Edit and set it to be moderated.

I tried this - but still nothing.

Primary groups is either registered (not moderated), or troublemakers (moderated).

Secondary group has no persmission for anything except to give them access to forum A.

If i change the forum permissions then EVERYONE in secondary group can either post or is moderated - it doesn't use the primary group setting.
