    Unregistered Guests Posting in vBulletin 4.2.2

    I can't seem to stop unregistered guests from posting in the forum I am managing. I have the posting permissions turned off for the User Group - "Unregistered / Not Logged In". Attached is a screenshot.

    I've tested the forum while logged out and I am able to create new topics and post. What am I missing here? How to I limit the forum so that only registered members can post?

    The forum is vBulletin version 4.2.2 located here: http://fstopspot.com/forum.php.

    Go to usergroups -> usergroup manager -> unregistered / not logged in and edit user group accordingly.

      Thanks for the reply! I think I have already done that (take a look at the screenshot I posed). I have the Post/Thread Permissions set to "No" across the board. I must be missing something else in this section. I don't want to make it impossible for unregistered members to see the forum. Any other ideas?

        I have this issue. Did you ever get to the bottom of it?
        Seems a few get through a week even though the forum settings haven't changed in years. Checked and rechecked them and they shouldn't be able to post as guests.

          This does not happen in a default 4.2.2 installation, so either the permissions are set wrongly or an add on is interfering with the permissions.

          Please start your own thread with full details of the issue.
