Once you've modified a user's permissions (so that they override the group permissions), how do you reset that user's permissions so they revert back to those of his group? I need to return this user to "generic" and don't want to have to keep modifying his individual permissions.

On the page in the admin area showing the members permissions there is a delete icon (looks like a bin) you click on this to remove the members permissions from each of the forums you set the individual permissions on.

Bruce,

I think what he is saying.. is that he would like to put a person back into the Ladder System possible.. And since the Individual Permissions override the Group Permission. He wants to know how you can just put them back in the ladder systme it sounds like

If a member is in a ladder group, individual permissions do not override the ladder system and the member will still move up the ladder system even with individual forum permissions set.
