Permissions in Clubs

[Stephen Bruce]

Are there any permission settings in club forums and downloads like there are in normal forums and downloads?

I want to make it so in a paid club the members can view the forums and get the downloads but not add their own topics and files etc.

This would be useful for an e-course for example

Also the privacy options seem very limited - why is there no option for people to pay and then get straight in without waiting to be approved?

[Adriano Faria]

No. A member can post in all features (forums or categories).

[Stephen Bruce]

Ok. That's no use to me then 😞

Maybe better to make normal forums and download categories that only paid member groups can access

[Adriano Faria]

EDIT: unless you make a read-only club. I never used it so I’m not sure it will work as you want.

I mean, not sure if a read-only club can be a paid club.

[Stephen Bruce]

I think Read-Only lets people see all of the posts even before paying. I'm not sure though. It's very confusing

[Black Tiger]

Agreed. I also find it confusing and also was under the impression that forum and download rights would also apply to clubs.

But that is not the case and you can't even set them up seperately. Confusing indeed. I rather use closed forums then.
