New Members Only Forum?
is there a hack around that will limit the people that can view a forum by number of posts?
for instance, some of my more seasoned forum members can be a bit cold to new members and can scare away the newbies. i would like it if they had a place to call their own while they got familiar with my site. |

This can be done with the built in promotions system. Simply create a new usergroup for new people, and promote them out of it once their posts exceed a certain number or their time period exceeds the time limit.
Once promoted out, they can't see the forum for newbies. |

Make a new group for your older members. Note the usergroup number.
Run this query: UPDATE user set usergroupid=x WHERE posts > 500; Then, set up your promotion to bump people out of registered users to this new group once they have 500 posts. Amy |
