Posted April 19, 20231 yr 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. Edited April 19, 20231 yr by tmcom

If they are set up correctly you should be able to achieve what you are asking for.

Ok, tried it, but it just gave me an error message, or an Opps not allowed as a member so it didn't seem to work? I want each member to be able post something but other members cannot see it.

ACP > Community > Forums > select Edit next to a specific forum > Forum Settings > Users can see topics posted by other users? Then go back to the forums listing and select Permisssions from the dropdown menu. Set for all groups: See Forum Read Own Topics Post New Topics Reply To Topics ACP > Members > Moderators / Administrators > if set to "Restricted" under Forums tab enable Can view all topics/questions?
April 19, 20231 yr What I believe you are looking for here is the setting in each forum. Edit the forum in question, and you will see....... And luuuk above beat me to it 😄
April 21, 20231 yr Author Solution Nope, last part with giving the admin, etc permissions to see them is fine, but for the life of me l cannot find the button you mentioned. It doesn't seem to exist on my platform?

Each forum is configured separately: Note that Categories do not have the option and you need to expand them and check normal (Sub)forums. Edited April 21, 20231 yr by Luuuk

Ok, finally found it, (kept clicking on Categories instead of sub categories). Thanks Luuuk appreciate it.
