Posted October 15, 20204 yr Hi, I would like to make some sub-forums/forums on my board limited: - Users without 10 posts can't start a thread - All users can post in already created threads. Is it possible? I can limit both posting and creating but can I do it exclusively? Best regards!
October 16, 20204 yr If the 10 post count is for anywhere on your board then I've always done that with member groups. Members start off as "Junior Member" and after 10 posts they get promoted to Member. Then in some forums I do not allow Junior Members to "start new topics" in the permissions.

October 18, 20204 yr Author It's only for one forum. Can it be done other way than with new group? Adding new group to established community is always tricky with all permisions etc.
October 18, 20204 yr You can copy the group and then just remove the permissions from the standard member group. Do a group promotion to the new group as a secondary group to give them the access. And no, you need to do it with a group.
