Hello Lee,

I have a problem with DNN 5 Forum module. How can I prevent some users from creating a new thread or doing a reply or post? I have tried modifying the Edit Module permission but it seems like it is not working.

Thanks.

you will need to look at the moderation settings in the forum module, rather than giving users edit permissions

I need to be able to allow content managers to add/update content on the website, but I don’t want them to have access to the actual Module settings.

ie. the page includes an Announcements module, and the content managers should be able to ‘Add new announcement’ , but not click Settings and be able to access the settings of the module which is occurring at the moment.

 

1. I have created a Security Role ‘content managers’, and added a ‘user account’ to this role.

2. On the page that the module resides on, I have set the Edit Page permissions to Allow for ‘content managers.

3. I have then gone into the Announcements module Settings, and set the Edit Module permission to Deny for ‘content managers’.

 

The user is still able to click Settings and access the Announcements module Settings.

 

How can I prevent a user from accessing the actual Module settings but still add content to the page?

 

Thanks

ok do it this way:

Page Settings: Do not give anyone edit page permissions or deny permissions
Announcement module settings: give edit permissions just to Content Managers


This will give them access to add announcements and that's all.

If you give a user edit permissions to a page it opens up more settings for them

Thanks

Thanks that worked. Sorry for late reply - I've been out of action for a few weeks.
