Question Only the topic's writer and admins could post

Hi. I would like to know how to do that: A forum where only the author of a topic and administrators could answer the topics. No matter if I have to change code, if someone had some tips.

Thank you.

go to backend - kunena -category manager - edit category "like: suggestion" - Permission - set Access Control Type to "Usergroups" - and set User Groups Allowed To Reply to "administrators"

Thank youk, but the user (not admin) who have created the topic, should be able to post too, not only administrators.

Unfortunately that's not possible. It would be required for each user a own user group.

I understand what you want but it's not easy to convert Kunena from a discussion forum component into a help desk system.

Your question has been asked before, the list of topics about using Kunena as a "help desk" application continues to grow and I am not surprised that it's difficult for people to find the information they are looking for. Here are some other topics where your question has been asked and some ideas you might like to consider:

• View only topics that the user has created
• How would I restrict a user to only their post(s)?
• Is it possible to set up Kunena as a help desk / job ticketing system?
• Access for only author and moderators
• Kunena Moderator-Assigning from joomla member
• [Merged topic] User Groups, User Group Privileges, ACLs
• Private Forum
• Can I use Kunena as a "help desk" application?

It is possible to convert Kunena into a help desk application but it's not easy and there will be costs involved.

Thank you very much. A help desk system is not exactly what I need. It should be like a public question system where only experts could answer. Anyway, your list gives me the advice for not trying to do it with kunena. I'm not afraid to change code, but maybe it is better to try with other tool.

Thank you.
