The Forum ☛ Permissions ☛ Add New Permission administration panel is where you can create a new Permission set.

Create New Permission Set


This admin panel is used to create a new Permission Set. Permission Sets are a collection of rules that dictate various accesses to Forum functions and capabilities. When creating a new Permission Set, you need to provide a Permission Set name and description. Then, for each listed action, select whether that action will be allowed or denied for this Set. A Permission Set by itself does not allow or deny access to Forum functions. A Permission Set needs to be applied to a User Group and a Forum for the access control to become effective. Permission Sets can be used on as many different User Group and Forum combinations as desired.

Note that some capabilities will never be applied to Guests (non-registered users) regardless of their setting. These are denoted by a grey “guest avatar” icon next to the permission.
