Hi guys,

as I am moving server I need to make the forum "read only" for a couple of days or so. Is that possible at all? I know I can switch everything down, but I wonder if there is something a bit less drastic.

I have found a very old thread dated 2007, so I am not sure if it is still applicalble (and anyway, I am not sure I know how to run a query on MySql.

TIA

Read only for which groups? All you've to do it adjust the category permissions.

All groups... there must be no activity. Going one by one is a bit tiresome Smile
