MyBB 1.2 Beta: Usergroup Admin Permissions

Although this feature may not be used by many, it is now possible to give usergroups permissions in the Admin CP (only if the usergroup has “Can Access Admin CP” permission). When you edit the permissions, the permissions listed are the same as the ones found in the existing individual user admin permissions. How do these affect my admins, you ask? Well now let’s say you want your moderators to access the Admin CP to moderate posts and attachments, but you don’t want to set the individual yes/no permissions for all 20 of them. Now you can set the usergroup Continue Reading

The tools allow moderators to do many actions in one, saving time and effort. In the Admin Continue Reading

The following screenshot shows the postbit. The multi-quote button is the one to the right of the “Reply” button (which was “Quote” before 1.2).
