Hello. I recieved a problem when I converted from MyBB to IP Board. Now I cannot visit the IP Board forum. I can see it but I cannot register or login. If I do I get 404-error.

Through the group members in AdminCP?

Yes, you need to set permissions in the ACP.  

There are two areas of permission: 

- in the application.  Click on ACP - Community - Forums and edit the permissions.  

- in the group settings.  Click on ACP -Membeds - Groups and edit the settings.

 The view and post permissions are in the application.
