Control Access
You can control which Forums a user can see and write to, and
control who can create new Forums.
Each
person is assigned a Role which provides default access rights. It is
very easy to override these to grant more or less rights.
You can either let a Role see all Forums or specify exactly which ones they can see and which ones they can write too.
A Role can be assigned one or more Forum Group and be allowed to create new Forums in that group.
