Arrrrrrrgh! Surly I must be over looking something!!

I have created a catagory with several child forums. The catagory and forums are visible to all members and guest accounts, a groupmember was created with limited moderation privilages for that catagory  and a user was assigned a set of permissions that are similar to mod privilages but slightly reduced. All works fine when that mod is in its home catagory/forum.

The problem is how do I restrict those privilages to for the mod, to that catagory/forum only? I want the mod to be able to go to other forums on the board but have no mod privilages on forums outside of its home catagory/forum.

Is this possible?

thanks,

Lou

Go to Admin - Forum - Boards - edit Boards

Select the Board you want to add a moderator with the most right modify link
Here you will be able to fill in the name of the moderator(s) of that specific board
Please, don't PM me for support unless invited.
If you don't understand this, you will be blacklisted.

Thank you capady!  I did try all the wrong ways first, naturally.   :)

It works a charm and now I have private mods for private forums.

thanks,

Lou
