Hello,
First of all, sorry for my bad english.
Well, I tell you now what I want to do in my forum and I hope some of you could solve my problem :)
I want to make a subforum that only can be viewed by some people. I know that can be simply done by creating a new group and assigning the permissions correctly to the subforum. But MAIN problem I have is: I have to change group to every user, everytime by myself. Then...is any way to set an "admin" to the subforum and then s/he can assign group to the user s/he wants (only change group into the group that can see the subforum, and not others like moderator,admin etc...).
Thx in advance,
Best Regards
in 2.0 what you want can be done in 1.1.1* it can not be done without giving the person control over all the member groups.
Ok, so if I upgrade my forum to version 2.0 I'll be able to do it? Great.
Then I wonder, in general aspects...v2.0 I suppose is better than 1.1.*. I mean, there is any issue that should know before upgrading?
Best Regards
there are not really any issues with the upgrade just make sure you have a backup, a theme that works with 2.0 and mods that work with 2.0.

Ok Illori,
I have upgraded SMF succesfully. Now, how can I do it?
Regards!
make them a moderator of the group then they can add/remove people as needed.
Thanks Illori,
It works great. But since I have upgraded to 2.0, I have spammers in my forum.
I don't really know how they do it, but I have captcha and e-mail confirmation as registration security.
I don't know how to stop it.
Regards
take a look at the anti-spam mods on the mod site, also take a look at the built in anti-spam verification questions (http://wiki.simplemachines.org/smf/Security_and_Moderation#Anti-Spam)
