Hi!

I don't understand the permissions with more than one group. For example, the primary group has the right "canpostthreads", the secondary doesn't have this right. Or the other way. Which group "wins"? Always the rights of the primary group? Or does the user get the right if one of his groups has the right? Or maybe a completely other permission model?

Thanks in advance!
The permissions for the groups are added to the user, so if the primary group doesn't allow them to post in a certain area, and their secondary does, that user is allowed to post in that area. Same thing goes for other aspects in MyBB. Your allow permission usually takes priority over the disallow. If that makes any sense.
Ah okay, I understand. Thank you!
