Hi, I've read all the documentation about this but wondering if these permissions sets look good or can you guys spot any errors? Thanks

Hi, How do you change a node permission so Registered users can't post in XF2 as if I do this it wont work. Group & permissions >> Node permissions >> Registered >> Post new thread = No or Never I get as Administrator I don't have permissions. Is the permission system different in XF2.0? Thanks

I know the official Xenforo install guide tells you to CHMOD 0777 folders data and internal data, but is it just literally those folders? What about the files? Or should we chmod -R 0777 both the folders including files?

Hi, We're trying to retrieve node permissions by user group instead of user id. For now, we're looking specifically at user groups 1 (Unregistered) and 2 (Registered). Based on reading the KB article and other posts here, it seems like we have to use the permission combinations to do that...

Currently users get their rights cumulatively based on the plural usergroups they are assigned to, rather than based on the group of rights assigned to their primary usergroup (i.e. which can in turn be duplicated and extended upon in new usergroups). In your opinion or experience based on...

I really tried to pay attention to the permissions discussions and thought I understood, but apparently not. I think I falsely assumed that if I provided Registered user group with permissions in the category, then all I would have to do is click the Inherit button at the top for each individual...

I am converting my vBulletin 3.8 forum to xenForo 1.5 this weekend. I'm a little concerned about how my current usergroups will be transitioned to the xF way of doing groups. I use the usergroups Administrators, Moderators and Pro Members as primary usergroups. All other usergroups are...

Anyone interested in developing an add-on that can make selected users 'manager of a group' ? I have posted the details in another thread, but didn't get much reaction so far. For details, please see: https://xenforo.com/community/threads/group-moderator.128749/

I am one of the admins at a religious discussion site. We have a forum for new believers to ask basic questions. The answers given are limited to Elders. I need to set the new believer's permissions such that he or she is unable to post elsewhere in this forum other than the specific thread...

I currently host a phpbb3.1x forum on my Linux server config with very restrictive permissions - I saw in the install notes where it says to set to 2 directories to 0777 - this is world writable and HIGHLY INSECURE. Is this actually required or is it just a line in the documentation to prevent...

I'll try to make this as brief as possible. After setting User group permissions, I (admin) am now defaulted to registered user, and included in ALL user groups under secondary at the same time. None of the user group permission settings are set to "Never/red". When I attempt to edit myself...

Is it possible to set a permission so that a small group cannot have access to a thread that every one else can?

Users with usergroup "Registered" can't view certain smileys - specifically the custom smileys that have been added. It would seem that XF sees these as "Attachments"? When trying to view the smileys in question as a mod or admin, the images display properly, but when viewed as registered user...

Is there a way to do this? I assume I need to use conditional statements, but how? I have a forum with posts I want to remain available for search engine purposes but I want to hide the node on the forum list page, but not the node's content - but for guests. When I change the Unregistered...

What permissions must I set for folders/files under DSO (no mod_ruid2)? I'm not sure which folders or files I need to modify permissions/ownership for, right now everything is under user:nobody. Thanks!

I had a member come to me today saying he was getting an insufficient permissions message when trying to start a new thread in a Node but he is able to post in a sibling Node even though both Nodes inherit permissions from the same parent. When I use the Analyze Permissions tool, it indicates...

Dear Community, I'm looking forward to have the following Resource/Add-On: 1. I can write a software like a "Log-In Desktop System" with name and password. 1.1 This name and password checks if the user exist in my xenforo board (data base) and checks with which current permissions, like: "Vip...

How to set default values for permissions - preferable at install time? I just want to prevent users of my addon to wonder why something does not work when they did not set up the permissions.
