I've been working a few days trying to configure my SMF (2.0 B 3.1) so that only a special member group can start threads.
I have regular members and I have a special class of merchants who sell supplies to my members, let's call them Suppliers.
I want a forum section on my SMF forum for Suppliers to post sale advertisements. Members should not be able to start threads in this section, but other than that the permissions of both groups should be the same. IOW, members should be able to reply to the threads that Suppliers start.
I've been trying to figure this out for about 3 days and I've seen most of the settings but there's just one essential part that's missing.
Help will be appreciated!
