How can I do this. For e.g I have a category called General and in there, there is a forum called "Are You New To The Server Or Are You Leaving? Come Say Hello Or Good Bye" and it has 2 sub forums called leaving and Are you new. How do I disable posts in "Are You New To The Server Or Are You Leaving? Come Say Hello Or Good Bye"? thanks a lot Smile
You can just lock that forum and no one can post then.

Edit: In Edit Forum settings you will find optinon "Access Options" under that you will see :

Forum is Open?
If unselected, users will not be able to post in this forum regardless of permissions.

Unselect it and you get what you want Smile
But I want people to be able to post in the sub forums.
They will be able to post in sub forum if you select that option for sub forum Smile I wanna say if you enable that option for posting, they will be able to post, it doesen't metter main forum is locked Smile
