Message Board assistance...

[Sailor Mercury]

A few people have been asking for help on how to make other members of their boards Moderators. To make it easier, I've written up the methods of doing this so that I don't have to explain it each time. Here goes:

To make someone either a co-admin or global mod:

Click on the name of the member you want to give the title. Go to “Modify”. Scroll down til you get to the section down the bottom that says “Position”. This is where you can give that person a title, or make them a co-admin or global mod. Click “Change Profile”. (Note: Be careful not to accidentally change that person’s password or delete them).

To make someone a mod of a section:

Go to “Admin”, it can be seen at the top of the page. Go to “Edit Board” and select the board you want to make the member a mod of. Go to the part that says “Enter the names of all the moderators you want for this board, separated by a comma:” and type in the name that member used to sign in with, that is, they might be using the name “Karaoke Demon”, but they might have registered under “KD” – you need to put in “KD” as opposed to “Karaoke Demon”.



I hope this helps...

Just a refresher ... If anyone needs help with their message boards, as long as it's with Proboards, you can check out the Proboards Support message board, and this will help you quite a lot...


Here's a direct link to the board itself:

And here's a link to the FAQ:

thank you Sailor Mercury! that really helped!

[Sailor Mercury]

That's good to know ;D

And I figure the official Proboards help will be a lot better than me

[SuperSailorMercury]

The official proboards help is exactly the same as yours, just in larger words to make it look more proffesional!

[Sailor Mercury]

LOL oh well... it helps me out anyway, coz that means I won't have to think about it

[Alexa]

Thanx Mercury, that helped a lot

[Sailor Mercury]

That's good ;D

Just a little reminder that this section is available for everyone I've recently had a few people asking me in PMs about stuff, which is fine, but still take a look at this thread, in case there's something I can't answer

hi to all i need help when i try to vote on a poll they say an error has ocurre you are not alloud to vote in this poll help................

[SuperSailorMercury]

Maybe the admin's made it so that members can't vote, and only staff can ??

[Sailor Mercury]

The poll could have been locked, perhaps...
