I am looking to have a board called Announcements wherein only Admins and Global Moderators can start threads but that Members can respond to.

It seems to me it should be simple, but I'm not managing. :-[

Can someone clue me in please.
Thank you.

You can set DIFFERENT permissions from the normal, global permissions for each membergroup.

Allow global mods and admins to post
disallow normal members and other groups from posting
allow everyone to reply

Please do not PM, IM or Email me with support questions.  You will get better and faster responses in the support boards.  Thank you.

Just so I'm clear, I can set different permissions for a particular board than those for the forum itself? 

Okay, I just paid closer attention and I think that I need to go in and create a new permission set.  So far all we have is "default".  No wonder I couldn't find the combination of permissions I needed.

I will probably be back.
