What's wrong with long topics? :whistle:
Yes, this is a good idea and the feature is not currently implemented in the way that you would like to see it done. There is a way of achieving within Kunena what you want to do but it involves a little bit of work on your part. If you're OK with the workload then here's the solution:
If you only want your forum (or one part of it to be used for "I have a question and no-one, not even me, is allowed to answer it except for the forum moderators/administrators") then you can do that with locked categories.
Your user posts their question into a category (which is moderated and for which you have "review posts = yes" defined, so that the message will not appear until it has been approved by a forum moderator); a forum moderator approves the message and moves it into a locked category. After that is done, no-one, not even the person who posted the message, can reply to the topic except for a moderator or site administrator. There you go. Problem solved.

Hmmmm. Not exactly what I had in mind!

We use Kunena and JomSocial on our site and we are looking for a solution to the following problem.
We have setup custom fields in JomSocial per user which will specify which Forum's we want that user to be able to access. We can then use this field when the user goes to the forum to restrict what forum/categories they would be able to use.
Does anyone know how this can be achieved or which files to edit so solve it.
Any help would be really appreciated.
Thanks
Richard

Thanks for the quick reply.
If we have 3 Forums set up - Forum1, 2 and 3.
Is it not possible to get the user details from their JomSocial record and check if they have access to (say) Forum 2 then only display Forum 2 when they access the Kunena forum page.
Thanks
Richard
