gabs007 Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Sorry if I'm repeating something already dealt with, but I'm preparing to upgrade to 4.2 and I have a clear idea of what I want to do with clubs, but since I can't test clubs I was wondering if you could help with one specific question 1. ¿ Can you create a club so that anybody registered (obviously not the guest user) can read the information and reply or post without joining the club ? Ok, what I mean is that I want to have all the clubs to work like subforums. Or let me ask in a different way ..... is enrollment to the group always mandatory in order to post/reply create a topic ? 2. IF 1st question is "No", let me ask a 2nd question. Can you allow by default a group to be able to read/write in a club when you create it ? I don't care if you need admin permissions for that, since my clubs will be created by the administrator. For example, creating a group that allows creating topics & replies to all members of a the "member group". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeChristopher Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Public Everyone can see the club and its posts, and can participate without joining. Open Everyone can see the club and its posts, but only members can participate. Everyone can join. Closed Everyone can see the club and who's in it, but only members can see posts and participate. Users need to ask a leader to join. Private Only members can find the club and see its posts. Users need to be invited by a leader to join.

Rheddy Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 One thing you can do is install a test/forum board and test out the Clubs feature for yourself before opening it to your community. This is what I do before making a certain new feature "LIVE".

bradl Posted September 8, 2017 Share Posted September 8, 2017 So far as I can tell from my use of clubs, access in terms of GROUPS is all or nothing. Meaning you can set permissions for a group to have access to clubs or not. But within the specific clubs that get created the permissions are only the private/closed/open/public options. I have not found a way to have one club "public" for "members" and a different club be public for "VIP Members" only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
