XF 1.3 Permissions Question

[rtr2006]

So I am trying to set up a board that just myself and super moderators can see. I've created a category, and then a forum. Board of these have the following permissions:

Category - Behind The Scenes
Unregistered - Never
Registered - Never
Moderator - Allow
Admin - Allow

Category - Behind The Scenes
Unregistered - Never
Registered - Never
Moderator - Allow
Admin - Allow

However, I am an admin and a moderator and I cannot see the board I've created.

When I look at my profile I am not a member or registered, or unregistered.

I can't figure out what I'm missing here.

Thanks for any help.

Don't use Never, it can't be overridden.

Revoke access to the node for the Registered user group, Allow it for the "staff" user group, or individual users.

Read this resource to see how permissions should be set up: http://xenforo.com/community/resources/implementing-permissions-across-multiple-user-groups.358/

I did what you said, but I'm still really struggling to understand how the behind the scenes won't disappear when I log out.

The permissions won't be set up correctly.

Use the Permissions Analyzer.

Have you revolved access to guests?

 

[rtr2006]

That would be this, correct "Unregistered / Unconfirmed "

 

[rtr2006]

By assuming you mean revoked... I did just now and that worked. I am really sorry. I misunderstood the first response, until you said the word revoked, which triggered not never, but revoke.

Yes.

Yeah. As Brogan stated, never use never.
