    Hi all,

    I am trying to make a forum in which only Active Social group Admins can post. I set it up in the security settings to allow only admins to post and it works. Only Admins can post and everyone else can read the posts.

    But here's the problem. Normal group members cant post, but they can see the "Add New Topic" button. When they click this, it sends them to the home page.

    What do I have to do to hide the "Add New Topic" button?

    With the security grid configured correctly the button should not be displayed.

    Is this happening in the actual Active Forums module, or in a group discussions tab?

    Both, What settings am I missing?

    I have uploaded 3 screenshots.

    1. The view within the group. I am logged in as a normal member but can still see the "Add new topic" button.

    2. The settings within the forum.

    3. The Settings within the group.

    Thanks!

    Make sure you attach the screenshots to your post by clicking the "insert image" button.
