I did this in Vb4 without issue but can't seem to make it work in vb5. I have a site where I run user bootcamps and many times am running two at a time. I used to be able to separate them, no problem, in vb4. Now I can't seem to make it work and I don't know why. I thought that I could do it with channel and usergroup permissions but it's not working. I also was able to use passwords on forums in Vb4 but that feature seems to be no more.
I have a top level category Bootcamps. Under that it should be UserForum 1 and then all the forums under that forum for that usergroup. Then it should be UserForum 2 and when they log on they should only see their forums.
When I try to put in an upper level forum for the second one, it won't let me. Even though the instructions say
It doesn't work like that. The second group can either see ALL or NOTHING. I have their usergroup set to NO for all the UserForum1s but they can still see it when they log on. No idea what I am doing wrong. I've been at this for days. Help please.

If you want this to be a subforum of another forum, select that forum from this list. If not, select --Forum. I don't want the new forum to be a subforum but there is no --Forum to select. If I try to select the UPPER (node 1) one it then allows the user in group 2 to see group 1's posts even though the channel permissions of the usergroup1 are set to no for usergroup2 |
