having issues assigning "primary membergroup" to new board members

[Anastaise]

I am logged into my Admin account, but when I go the Member Account Profile settings to assign the "primary membergroup" to a new board member, it asks to verify their password when I hit "change profile".  Any clue as to why as an admin I am expected to know a users password in order to assign their membergroup?  Am I missing a setting somewhere?

It's asking for *your* password to verify that you're suitably empowered to make that change, just as you have to do to go into the admin panel.

ok - thanks - that should have been obvious but I was up most of the night getting this set up - just a little bleary eyed atm.

Admin>Boards.

Click "Modify", beside the board you want.

Then, look for "Permission Profile:".

I think you'll figure-out the rest.

Edit: Oh. The post I replied to seems to have vanished...

sigh - my reading comprehension is weak today.  It's fixed - officers & admins can still post and others can't.

 "Permission Profile:"?

Set that to "Read only".

Thanks again for the help - I'm running on sleep fumes today...

Now if I could just figure out how the heck to get eqdkp installed....

No sweat!

eqdkp is not something that I know much (Read "Anything") about, I'm afraid.

Ok - maybe you can help me figure out how to turn off edited tag for moderators/admins in forum posts?
