Group Management

Labels: , ,

This documentation applies to ZetaBoards only.

This page allows you to view, create, and modify member groups, and can be accessed by clicking Groups in the Users & Groups section of the Admin CP.

Group Manager

This section of the page contains a list of all current user groups listed in a tabular format. The headings are as follows:

  • Group Name. This is the name of the group in the format in which it is displayed on the board.
  • Special Abilities. This lists the moderation abilities, if any, that the group has.
  • Member Count. This is the current amount of members in the group. Clicking on the number will list all users in the group.
  • Delete. Clicking Delete will permanently delete the respective usergroup.

Note: You may not delete pre-defined, or 'Built-in' groups.

Creating New Groups

To create a new group, first select the group on which the new group will be based from the Settings based off of drop-down menu and click Make New Group. Follow the on-screen prompts on the following page and click Make New Group to create the new group.

Changing Group Colors

Unlike Invisionfree, Zetaboards does not allow html to be used in the Prefix and Suffix input fields. The Prefix box contains anything that would appear before a username, while the Suffix box contains anything that would appear after a username. Instead of html, Zetaboards Prefix and Suffix boxes use BBCode. Below is an example of how to have a green colored name.

Prefix

[color=green]

Suffix

[/color]

This produces: Administrator

In addition, bold, italic, background color, border and strike-through tags can be used. Here are a few examples:

Prefix

[border=red,1,solid][bgcolor=black][b][color=white]

Suffix

[/color][/b][/bgcolor][/border]

This produces: Administrator

Images can also be used in Group Prefixes and Suffixes. Below is an example of an image coming before the user name:

Prefix

[img]http://209.85.62.24/static/1/collapse.png[/img]

The Suffix box would remain empty.

This would produce: Administrator
