Looking for how to set user up as moderator...browsing the forum...not finding it. I'm sure it's quick and easy, just not finding it 🙂

by default, you should already have a usergroup called moderators... it would be on forum - usergroups - manage usergroups...  anyone you want to be a moderator, you can add to that usergroup...  then add the usergroup and the moderator permissions to any forum you want them to modify...

you can also modify the permission set if you want to change the permissions a bit...

if you want different moderators for different forums,  you will need to create multiple moderator usergroups and assign folks to them as desired...and apply that usergroup with the desired permission set to each forum...

might help to read the controlling access part of our codex:  http://codex.simple-press.com/.....ng-access/

come on back if you still need help...
