If you want users to be able to view forums, topics, and posts, the CAN below should be checked/enabled:

  • Can view forum
  • Can enter forum
  • Can enter topic

 

However, if you don't want to allow users to publish the topics and posts, you should uncheck/disable the following CAN:

  • Can create topic
  • Can post reply

The rest of the CAN you should configure as you wish.
