Moderator control or how do you creat custome User Levels?

[kmardis]

Is there anyway to setup a usergroup that can be able to moderate forums and ban users without giving that person access to the full admin panel? Maybe be able to make a special admin user level that only can use the User Control sub-panek in the admin panel.


thanks

yes, this is all done with groups and permisisons. its actually very easy. it's all there in the admin section.

Create a group called "Moderators" and in the ACP give that group moderator rights of the forum(s) you want them to moderate. Its that easy and you can add and remove members of that group at will.

I have set up a test user and made a usergroup that is the moderator of all forums, but I don't see where I can give the ability to ban an user, IP, and/or e-mail. Nor see where you can do the banning outside the admin panel. Am I just blind?

As a Moderator the can moderate forums Edit /delete posts. To ban that would require access to the admin panel or installation of one of the Jr. Admin type Mods

Can you recommend any of the Jr. Admin Mods?

as far as I know, the jr admin MOD is not being updated and doesn't work with the new versions.

look in the MOD section for moderator MODs there are several from easy to complicated.
