Section Manager

Labels: ,

This documentation is for ZetaBoards only.

The Section Manager, located under the Forum Sections area of the Admin CP, allows you to edit existing sections and categories.

For each category:

  • Edit a category. Edit the selected category's name.
  • Delete category. Delete a category. If the category contains any forums, you will have to choose where to move these forums before the category gets deleted.

For each forum:

  • Edit Settings. Modify the settings of the forum.
  • Empty Forum. Delete all posts in the forum.
  • Delete Forum. Remove the forum.

Warning: If you empty a forum, all posts are removed permanently–you cannot retrieve them. Likewise, deleting a forum deletes all posts within it. There are no confirmation screens.

If a forum contains additional sub-forums, you can click on the forum's name to view and edit its sub-forums.

Editing a Forum

The form for editing a forum's settings has some additional options not present when creating a forum:

  • Forum Specific Skin. Set a specific theme for this particular forum to use.
  • Forum Rules. Set rules for the forum that can be shown above the topic list.
    • Rules Display Options. Select how the rules should appear.
    • Rules Title. The title of the rules.
    • Forum Rules. The content of the forum rules (BBCode enabled).
