Alright so im getting ALOT of spam and Ive decided to try a method that i think will work after reading some other peoples good experiences from it.
I want to create a membergroup which all new members join where they are just allowed to post in hte introduce yourself forum. Before they post there they are not allowed to post anywhere else.
Can anyone tell me how i can create that membergroup? Thanks!
And i am also wondering how i can change the welcome email sent to new users so that i can tell them that they need to post in there first.
Firstly you need to state which version you use.
Secondly a mod will hopefully place the post in the correct section.
I use the newest version.
sorry for posting this the wrong place...
newest version of which branch? 2.0 RC4 or 1.1.12?
version actually doesn't matter.... this has been discussed a number of times. Use the post-count based membergroups and board-level permissions to allow/restrict posting permissions.
the welcome email is listed in the text strings/files
