Hi Support

In Settings > Forum Accesses I control all permissions to be applied for each forum.

There are for example:

Can set topic solved: checked/non checked

Can set own topic solved: checked/non checked

and...

Can close topic: checked/non checked

But there is no

Can close own topic: checked/non checked

I find this permission most convenient when you want to grant permission to close topics but limit this permission to "close own topic" only.

Is there a way to include this permission?

Hi @jorgew,

I'm really sorry, but wpForo doesn't have "Can close own topic" permission.

In general,  the "Can close topic" is designed for high-level users admin, moderation, etc. However, we'll take into consideration to implicate "Can close own topic" Can in future releases.

This is exactly what I need.

In my forums there is a (Q+A) private forum that is restricted to only the BoD of the organization. What I need is that any director -but not the admin (who should stay out)- nor moderators (who are kept out, directors don't want to be moderated)- can close their own [private] topics.

Would be nice to have that permission included soon.

You are making of wpForo a really beautiful and powerful plugin so far, thanks!!

 

molte grazie 🙂
