Hello, my name is Budi from Indonesia. I would like to ask something about MyBB such as:
- What is the difference between threads and post?
- How to set that user should need permission first to post a thread?
- Why another user (registered) able to delete the other's thread? and how to make it need confirmation first before deleting the thread?
- What is the difference between stick thread and close thread, since those both threads able to be replied?
Thread consists of posts. it can contain a
single post or
several posts in a series
personally I prefer using a plugin for
moderating first post of a user
[eg.
Required Approvals plugin]
by default, a
registered user doesn't have privileges to
delete others posts & threads.
if you have this problem then there can be mis-configuration in
group permissions
sticked threads appear at the
top of normal threads on a
forum threads list page.
normal users cannot post in a
closed thread unless they have
required privileges
It is not a good idea to allow users to delete other users' posts. That should be restricted to moderators.
You can set user group permissions in acp > users > user groups where you can select that certain groups have their threads or posts moderated

where I can manage the deletion permission on the admin control panel? Would you please me complete guidance? Thank you very much before.
He has given you the location. Admin Control Panel > Users > User Groups > Select group and edit where necessary.
