That make sense, do i have to manually add in the members on wordpress under “users” even if i only want them to have access to the website and simplify it for them or do i have to find a plugin for that as well?
Because as far as i know, (unless im told differently) they only want a forums for members, it wont be used for anything else for the time being besides the general public website
Ok I Have the Forums set up and set to private, disabled the anyone can apply to be a member under settings, hopefully that will stop the emails. Now how do i set up the member list? so that they can log in via the website and not webpress? i know i can set their abilities to view certain tabs like subscribers VS moderators.
Example of my set up: On forum topic is open for all member’s to see and comment on
the other topic is set for Officers only.
and Thanks for all your help Robin
I tried following the guides, I can set the forums up nice and easy just the private for membership thing i cannot, i get emails every day from spam “registering with the site” even though i dont see any type of registry or loggin
