i checked the documentation, but the link to explain is offline.

if i want to make a "user" moderate, lets say just 3 forums, how would i do this?

and if i wanted to make a "user" global mod, will he be able to ban accounts?
if not, i would therefore have to let him access the admincp to ban accounts then right?? and if i did that, could he demote me?

just explain how to do it please. thanks

To add moderators to specific forums just go into the ACP and click on Moderators

Then select the forums you want them to moderate, type in or search for their username and add them as a mod.

If you make a user a global mod they have full moderator permissions, which I believe includes banning. You should never make someone Admin unless you trust them with your life either. Hope that helps!

ok.... you helped me with the modding.

but what about a global mod? do i have to make a rank named "Global Moderator"? or make a group named that? then how do i make him able to post, edit, close topics..ect. and banned people?

there is nothing on the ACP that says anything about a global mod? so please try to explain it more clearly?

[*]And another thing, if i were to make a group able to access the admincp, i kno they can **** my forums and everything, but can they demote me? (the ROOT admin?)

A global moderator doesn't need to be in a specific group or anything. They already have the ability to edit posts, close topics, move them, etc, etc.
They can do pretty much everything you can do in the Moderator Control Panel.

.... okay, listen. in order for a "user" rank or whatever... right under there name to say "Global mod" do i have to manually make there rank that?

If you mean where it says Member on the "user's profile", yes, you have to type in Global Moderator in place of Member. Otherwise it would say member under the avatar but would show Global Moderator above avatar. You would type it in to get it to say the same above and below the Avatar.

can they ban...?

and another thing, im trying to make admin usernames a certain color. i read the thing in documentation, but all that happens is my name says "HTML" above my name with a big white box, then my name, then "HTML" bleow my name.... wtf?!

this is what i am c&p into the online prefix:

</div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td>HTML </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'><span style='color: blue; filter:glow(color=black, strength=2); height: 1px;'></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'>

and this is what i am putting in the suffix:

</div><table border='0' align='center' width='95%' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='1'><tr><td>HTML </td></tr><tr><td id='CODE'></span></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'>

but the only thing it does is say "HTML" with a big white box before my name, then says "HTML" without a box after my name. i see this where "members online" list is at bottom.

Put this in instead for just a color
Prefix:

Code:

<span style='color: COLOR NAME HERE'>

(edit where it says COLOR NAME HERE and either put the name of a color, or its hex code

Suffix:

Code:

</span>

hYpnOtiQ · 10-19-2005, 02:33 PM

Infernus · 10-19-2005, 04:05 PM

Still need help? Yes, they can ban, and yes anyone with access to the ACP can demote you. Short and simple
