Title: A mod that only lets specific membergroups to reply in that board
Post by: Luther. on July 04, 2015, 07:01:24 PM
Hey. I'd like to know if there's a mod that makes it so every forum user can create a topic in the board but only a specific membergroup can reply.

For example:
Is it possible to make it so in this board everyone can create a topic with a question but only those with the 'Support Specialists' membergroup can reply in the topic?


That's what I want.

Olá ;)

You don't need a MOD for that, just regular permissions.
There are separate permissions for post new topic and post replies so you just need to create a permissions profile, set it to the board you want and configure permissions properly.

If you are looking for a support system, maybe a Helpdesk is better?

The support one was just an example eheh

So, can I just do that in the membergroup and board permissions? Can I make it so everyone can create a topic in a board but only a specific membergroup is allowed to reply?

yes with permission profiles you can set it up like that.
