Sorry for this newbie question but I have spent hours trying to get this to do what I want.

I use V1 years ago and am now setting up a new forum on V2.0.2

I have 20 odd board in the forum. One of the boards I would like just one person to be allowed to post topics to and everyone else to have read only access to this board.

I have looked in the manual and done a search but I can't find anything related to what I want (unless I am using the wrong terminology for the search). I suspect this is possible but playing around with the Board Permissions I just can't get it working.

Could someone please give me an idiots guide on how to do this?

TIA

Look for:

Permission Profile:
Which permission set the board should use.

Thanks but that is what I have been trying to do and I can't get it to work.

Can you be a little more detailed on the exact steps please?

What is the forums link?

I'll have a look if ya want.

Valkrider

Thanks very much I have pm'd you details

Eventually resolved this on my own.

Doesn't seem to be logical (not to me anyway) how this works but got it in the end.
