Restrict user rights?

Heyy..

How can I restrict normal logged in users so that they can only comment on posts but cannot or may not create topics. Is this possible in any way?

@cashy, All you have to do is check the “Closed” box in the forum structure settings in the backend.  According to documentation:

  • Closed: Tick the box to close the forum.
    • A closed forum prevents users from adding new topics.
    • Administrators and moderators can still post new topics.
    • Users can still comment on topics.
    • Hint: Closing a forum is a great way to create an Announcements, News or other type of forum where official information needs to be shared.
