Hi,
Is there any plugin or configuration by which I can show 1 single forum to a user who has 0 post (when logged in).
If not logged in they can view full forum...
But if logged in and has 0 post then they see a specific forum only.
How to do this ?
Thanks.
You can easily use the Promotion system for this.
The default Registered/Members group can only view a forum with 0 post count.
After they have 1 or more, they are promoted into an "Advanced" Members group that you've created, which can see every forum that you allow it to.
Admin CP > Users & Groups
Under "Groups", set up the groups there.
Under "Group Promotions", configure the promotions there.
Then under "Forums & Posts", configure each group's permission under each forum setting.
Hi,
You mean to say:
1. Set permissions of "Registered" usergroup to show nothing except the single forum.
2. Then create new user group called: Advance and set its permissions to show, post etc. (Normal)
3. Then create the promotion to move users from "Registered" to "Advanced" when they make 1st post ?
Am I correct ? If yes, then its not working. I set promotion to Post Count: 1 and rule: Equal To
But even after making 1st post, its not showing me all other forums.
Thanks.
Yes that's what I meant, it might not be happening because something is wrong it the task.
Admin CP > Tools & Maintenance > Task Manager
Open "Promotion System".
For Minutes, Hours, and Days of Month, put *
Make sure Weekday & Months are selected on ALL days and ALL months.
Then save the settings, and back on the Tasks page, on the same line of the "Promotion Systems", there's a clock icon, click it to force the task to run.
If it's still giving you problems, someone else earlier said they fixed it by deleting the task & re-creating it using the same settings.
It seems to be enabled. I think its set to run after: 5,25,45. What does that means ???
That means it runs at 5 minutes into an hour, then at 25 minutes, then again at 45 minutes.
The asterisk, *, should make it run all the time. Provided there is someone there to access your site.
