tmcom Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 (edited) I mean l want to be able to post something but no one else can read it, or a member can post several things and no one can see it except mod/admin of course. Messed about with permissions but that doesn't do it. help! This is a test section, l want private for anyone who uses it.

If they are set up correctly you should be able to achieve what you are asking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want each member to be able post something but other members cannot see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
