UBB.threads PHP Forum Software Community Forums UBB.threads 7 Version 7 Support Blocking user from specific forums?

Hey guys and gals,

I have a quick question for you.

Is there a way to block members access to specific forums? We have 83 forums on our boards and was wondering if there was a way to do this.

ie. Member A has caused problems constantly in Forum XX. We would like to block him access to that specific forum but still allow him to access the rest of the forums.

Thanks

Walt

Assuming the person is in the default user group.
Create a new group call it ban forum x.
Set the permissions to 0 for the forum in question.
Then goto member management and add that person to the new group. At the same time remove them from the user group.

Hint. If you use the copy group to create the new one you will have less permission settings to edit.
