Well, I made new groups, like "Newbs" and "Moderators" but how can I make people become in the "Newb" group before reaching 5 posts? Cause when they register they automaticlly become in the "Member" group. any ideas?

thanks

I could be wrong - but I don't think you can do anything about that, except maybe change the name of the group "members" to "newbs". I think other groups are extensions of the member group. I'm yet to get to that part of my new forum as I continue to test it, but I'm certainly going to have groups that can only access certain parts of my forum.

maybe its in the user title ranks
you should check the number of posts there

There are 2 answers. The 1st is to change the scripts which I am not sure where it is off the top of my head, but I think it's gonna be one of the main scripts forumer doesn't grant access to. So the only option here will be what time lord said. Just change member to Newb, and then have it go from there.

We're not talking about Ranks, we're talking about groups
