PLEASE HELP - QUESTIONS / Can anyone please help?

[webowner]

Hello,

I own a web & print media business and am setting vbulletin up for a large school (a client)

Can someone please direct me to the best way to set this up:

4 Groups = Group A, Group B, Group C, Group D
a. each individual group needs a blog - where they can view/edit/post messages & new posts
b. each individual group needs a photo album - where they can view/edit/upload photos etc.
c. each individual group needs a calendar - where they can view/edit/post events etc.
d. each individual group needs a page to upload / download documents and other files
e. interact between other members in their group and their group only

- Except for administrator/s who will have access to every sections/all groups

I have set up 4 user groups but not sure how to add individual sections (Blog/Photo Album/Calendar/ Document page to EACH separate Group).

This may be done via permissions?

On the site there is a blog and forum which is OPEN for everyone to see once they log-in, but each group also needs to have their own sections.

Registration is by permission only (I have turned off registrations). But how do I change the front-page message where they log-in? Is this done via a template?

Also, please tell me how do I remove any messages that say "Vbulletin message" ?

Hope this makes sense and any help would be greatly appreciated.

Best Regards.

Purchase the branding removal option. That's the only legal way. For your other questionS, good luck getting a reply. It's best to contact vb directly.

Actually, since what they want requires modifying the code, they would just be sent back here if they contacted support.

Users may have individual blogs. You could have one user invite all the other users in the group to post in his Blog, but he can't invite a usergroup. I think what you want may require modifying the code.

Albums are also for individuals, not groups. Again, you will need to modify the code if you want only one album for a whole group.

In fact, looking at all your wants, I think you will need to modify the code a bit. The Forums are makde more for individuals to be able to post, not really to have a group post. Groups can certainly have their own forums where only they may post though.
