Title: Whats the order of Precedence
Post by: alankroeger on August 28, 2004, 12:36:12 PM
Whats the order of Precedence in the permissions settings were trying to sort out this concerning Delete & Modify posts. Every once and a while we get a troublemaker on our forum so, we were thinking of limiting these features for a newbie and also creating a Moderated group for someone who we suspect is being deliberately troublesome.

Global-> Board-> Group
Global-> Group-> Board
Etc...

If you set permissions "locally" for a board, then the global permissions are not used period.  It only, in that case, uses the local ones.

Deny is more important than Allow which is more important than Disallow.  Remember that any groups a member is in (Global Moderator, Newbie, Other Group, etc.) all add together.
