But then you also have to change the options I mentioned on the other page, not just set the option to Yes in the usergroup manager.

Give us a screen capture of the Administrator Permissions screen and the Moderator Permissions screen for one of the users you are having problems with.

Okay I found out a trick, if I add their userid to the config, that lets them have admin access. Without that, they have little access and can only moderate the forums.

Did you chk this?

[jbizzle]

Yep

Another question, when people report posts, how am I supposed to know they reported it? I get an email like an hour later that someone reported a post..

You can set a forum (and a thread is started there) under reported post options

VB options> user infractions & post reporting options

If they have a secondary usergroup that could be a problem with the permissions.

Thank you sir :up:

Thanks for everyone answering my questions

I'm having another issue with signatures. I changed the width/height but it is still limiting the file to 9.8kb, anyway to raise that?

Something tells me that with the questions you have asked so far, you don't know how to work vBulletin.

Not saying it's wrong, but it's suspicious to me. You wanting some help?

[jbizzle]

Of course I don't know how to use it, this is my first time using it..

Of course I want some help, that's why I keep posting questions.

Another question, how do I make it so new users MUST verify through email?

Only give people the administrator usergroup, if you fully trust them. They will be able to destroy your website.

Add them to specific forums here:
usercp -> forum & moderators -> forum manager -> add moderator to forum.

Put their accounts in the moderator usergroup, and then edit their moderator permissions in:
usercp -> forum & moderators -> show all moderators.
