Hi

I was wondering if there is a way to set a board so that members with a post count below 10 can view but not post within the board.

Any advice or modification would be helpful, thanks :)

Create a new profile for those boards from the permissions area, turn on deny permissions, and for the lowest post count groups, deny the posting permissions.

Im not really sure I follow, I've added a "PROFILE" called "Plus 10" (as I want members to have more than 10 posts who are allowed to post in within this board) I've also enabled "Enable the option to deny permissions"

I dont understand if Im supposed to be making this a Membergroup

The only other accounts that appear under "General Permissions" are Guests and Regular Members so im not sure which to modify.

Ah, I see the problem. Admin > Permissions > Settings > Enable permissions for post count based groups

Then for your new profile you'll see the ability to set permissions for post count groups, so set the permission for the less-than-10-posts group(s) to deny new topics and so on.

Then from Admin > Boards, set the profile of the board to your Plus 10 profile.
