Version 7 User Groups

As far as I can see a member can only belong to one member group. Is there any plans to change this?

We operate a number of private squadrons for online fighter groups. Quite correctly they wish to limit access to their own forum members. This works fine when a member is only limited to one squad but fails if they need access to more than one forum.

The other forum software I have had experience with (snitz and dcscripts) does things slightly differently in that you assign a member rights in the forum not a member group.

This also applies in my particular case for those with moderator functions, we have a mix of moderators who look after particular forum areas so again a group approach when a member can only belong to one group does not work very well.

Or am I missing something?

sq 1
sq 2
sq 3
..
..
sq 45

and then:

sq1&2
sq1&3

If jou need every combination this is not the solutition.

Is you needs some combinations it will do.

JHH

my opion: One programa can't fullfill every wish. So stop wishing :-)

Making the forum so you can set individual forum permisisons for individual members would not only require allot of coding, slow the forum down serverly, but also make it very complicated to setup and so will not be a feature.

I'm afraid it's not something that will be added, maybe Snitz would be a better option for you.
