You can create a new group, assign all forums to it and make sure to enable anon & all-registered special masks when you create it. Then go to user land group manager and enable reply/post permission for anonymous users.

How do you do a per forum group permissions ??
ie. Group A can only see and post in forum X while Group B can only see and post in forum Y and Group C can see and post in both X and Y ??
I have come from phpBB where this all very easy to setup; having a little difficulties in the transition on this part.
Thanx alot.
PS so far it seems to be working the way i want after using the phpBB to FUDforum php script, but would like to know hows its working so i can control it as Admin.
PSS i have read the docs and it doesnt seem to say specifically how to do this, onnly that it can be done.

Yeah forum is assigned a group, who's permissions you can modify via the user-land group manager linked from the front page. This manager allows you to change permissions of all registered and all anonymous users as well as add special permissions for certain users.

Yeah cool, i did read that, but for me for some reason, it isnt sinking in.
For some reason the permissions i had with phpBB have come across and are working, yet there are no special groups and no special perms been made for any forums. So not sure where to start with this.
Basicly i need a group called 'private' or whatever who have special access to private forums. Another one called 'private two' that overlaps all of private except their main forum is different and the 2 groups cant see each others main forum. If that makes sense.
But the first part is confusing me, how are the perms working when there's nothing been set up ?? If something was changed in the DB by the phpBB conversion script, wouldn't that be reflected in the php frontend ??
PS Where's the IRC chat channel ?? The address i found failed to connect.

So based on this to get what i want i need to:
- Not allow access from either anon or registered users to my private forums (write nor visibility access)
- Create a private group and add members to it that i want to have access to the private forums
- And then give this group permission to access the private forums
- Repeat step 3 for my 2nd private group, making changes as applicable
Am i on the right track ??

The phpBB permissions do not directly translate to FUDforum forum ones, so that's something you'll mostly need to restore manually.

If you end up writing something automatic, I'd love to see it, so perhaps it can be added to the conversion utility.
