Special Permissions for a Member Group

I want to restrict members from posting links. I know about Anti Spam Links Mod which I can use to restrict members from posting links, or posting only nofollow links...

But I want one specific member group to allow posting all types of links on my forums. For example, on my education forum, I created a member group "AMPS Student" which means this member group will be assigned to only school students.

This member group is not based on post count. Its private and admin must assign this group to different members.

I have restricted other member groups which are post count based groups from posting links. But I want to allow private member groups to post links even if they have only one post in the group.

Kindly guide me how can I do this.

Generally any permission you wish to limit to a certain membergroup, should always be only allowed for that group and no others (including post count groups).
The regular members group will give permissions to everyone, and post count groups will give permissions to everyone meeting the the post count limits set.

regular members will give permissions to everyone that does not another primary member group.

Sorry, didn't get your point. Can you please explain to me if there is any way that "Anti Spam Link" mod works for all member groups except for the groups which I want to exclude?

In case the regular permissions don't play along with a mod, it is best to ask the mod author for more specific advice.

I do not believe the mod can do what you are asking.

However, as pointed out - questions regarding a specific mod should be asked in the support thread dedicated to supporting that specific mod.
