I hope the answers helped celux?
@Alice: I don't think I have something to apologies for... Iam not the person start post nonsense. You should try vB5 again before complaining loud about it even though in first post the op write he is using vB5 . But anyway... Main thing is the question is answered and the op could handle the problem?! |

Complaining loudly?! LOL I didn't realize that saying, "v5? Not going there" was complaining loudly. Besides, I was talking to him, not you. Quit being rude!

Hi Team,
Thank you, celux has been laid up, i.e. out of action for the last week, unable to action anything. Finally celux is home again, and about to read all the thread, and thank you for these posts, we'll read the suggestions shortly and try see if we can set something up. Here's an example, HippyKill with 17 Posts has just posted in the Market Place, but unfortunately most likely a Moderator will soon come along & delete poor old HippyKill's post (I will save the content now however).. he shouldn't have access to post in this forum unless he's been a 30 Day Member + 25 Posts (this was easy to set up in phpBB, hell, even I could handle it). https://www.timekeeper.co.nz/forum/m...nd-date-orange In vB5 it seems a bit more involved, we'll see.. Will report back later today. Thanks heaps Team :up: 10/10 ===== (Currently 1400hrs @ GMT+12 in Auckland, New Zealand) --------------- Added [DATE]1532667030[/DATE] at [TIME]1532667030[/TIME] --------------- When we shifted from phpBB ---> vB5 this was the Membership of the Market Place... there will be a few more who qualify now but this will be most. --------------- Added [DATE]1532667400[/DATE] at [TIME]1532667400[/TIME] --------------- We already have a hidden sub-from in the 'Off Topic Forum' that only Moderators can access... We'd like the Market Place to be visible, just not able to be posted in unless a member meets the requirements & has been added. We used to add them manually when we were on phpBB. This 'Testing - MOD's only' forum isn't visible to the public, only 7 members can access it... We do want the Market Place to be visible to the public however. --------------- Added [DATE]1532667768[/DATE] at [TIME]1532667768[/TIME] --------------- So... we need to create / add a new user group (market) here and then add the members then? --------------- Added [DATE]1532667859[/DATE] at [TIME]1532667859[/TIME] --------------- 1) You need to create a usergroup which you intend to have permission to view the specific sub-forum in question. 2) You need to create a promotion to move users who meet your criteria (30 days registered and 25 posts) into that new usergroup. 3) You need to restrict access to that specific channel by channel permissions (if so desired) in the case or event that there are usergroups you want to see that channel regardless of having met the criteria. Typically this would be moderators. - In Omnibus --------------- Added [DATE]1532667985[/DATE] at [TIME]1532667985[/TIME] --------------- Ok ok... found the PROMOTION page.. --------------- Added [DATE]1532669337[/DATE] at [TIME]1532669337[/TIME] --------------- Created a group called Market Place based of the permissions of Registered Users... it shows up as 'Custom Usergroups' as per: And can see how possibly we can create the 'promotion, as per: Hm... Thanks you VERY MUCH In Omnibus.... Might stop here for a bit, as I'm not sure this is quite the right method There is hope however --------------- Added [DATE]1532669674[/DATE] at [TIME]1532669674[/TIME] --------------- Whoops - accidentally clicked save & now have: Maybe this will get populated after 1 hour, or maybe not |

After a couple of days, the 'Market Place' group began to be populated... adding up the names there should be about 100 members, so far it has added about 50% of the members who have 25 posts + 30 days.
It seems to be adding them as they log on... 43 Members have been added over the last 3 days/75 odd hrs to the new Market Place group we created. ======== So... next step is applying some channel permissions restrictions correct? One thing is, we really want the Market Place to remain visible to all, we only wish to restrict the ability to post in it to the 25 posts + 30 days criteria, how do we achieve this peoples Thanks again Team C E L U X |

Channel Permissions Make sure Can View Channels Can View Topics Can View Others Content are all set to "Yes" for any usergroup you want to be able to view the Marketplace channel |

Thanks heaps In Omnibus,
So... about to look at this now... Right so, - Channel Management - Channel Permissions 1. Edited Market Place - Registered Users Group users by flipping these 4 switches to NO/OFF & this seems to prevent posting in the Market Place except by mods/admin which is what we want... 2. Edited Market Place - Market Place Group users by flipping these 4 ON/YES this (seems) to allow posting by criteria meeting account holders with 25 posts + 30 days. Have we done this correctly Team? Thanks in advance, seemed impossible for us to do this, on our own, In Omnibus has been uuber helpful indeed. C E L U X |

The best way to check permissions is to set yourself up a test user account. Then you can use that account to check anything for any usergroup.

In Omnibus,
Thank you - that is exactly what we have been doing for the last hour, seeing if it works from various account's and AFAWK it's all good This, if it does continue to work, will save us hours + hours of time thats been getting wasted dealing with willy nilly posting in the sales forum. Just brilliant - thank you very much Sir! |
