Question How we stop posting under a forum (There are sub forums under the forum as well)

Hi,

How we stop posting under a forum (There are sub forums under the forum as well)

1. I have created 10 subforums under a forum. Now inside that forum(Not inside any sub-forums created) i want to disable new post.How can we do it?

Thank You

Good question: see Sections, Categories, sub-Categories (Part 2) - advanced setup for special groups .

Set your sub-categories as locked.

Thank You!

1.)What is a sub-category in kunena. ?
I have came across only categories,forums,sub-forums only

path 1:
Education(Category)->Science(Main-forum)->IT(Sub)->Programming(Sub)->Java(Sub)->New to Java(sub)
path 2:
Education(Category)->Science(Main-forum)->IT(Sub)->Programming(Sub)->Java(Sub)->J2SE(sub)
path 3:
Education(Category)->Science(Main-forum)->IT(Sub)->Programming(Sub)->Java(Sub)->J2ME(sub)

I want to block posting inside [Science,IT,Programming,Java] only

2.) Can we create categories(Separate block as seen on first page of a kunena forum) inside a forum/sub-forum in kunena just like in phpbb3 ?

The terminology changed midway through K 1.5 - it was previously very confusing and the terms did not correspond with standard web-based forum usage elsewhere.

The terms are explained in Sections, Categories, sub-Categories (Part 1) . I also repeated the message in my 'blog, Kunena 1.6 - Sections, Categories and all that jazz . Old habits are hard to change but, we hope, over time people will feel more comfortable using the terms categories (instead of forums) and sub-categories (instead of child boards).

I hope that, by looking at the references I've just given, I think you will quickly discover the answer to your second question yourself. If not, please let us know.

Locking is currently the only solution as sozzled said.

For K1.7 I've thought of making sections available in everywhere.
