Hey Justin...

something I've come across frequently is when I restrict guest posting on a board... when you view the board index it says

Quoted Text
You may not post new threads or reply to threads on this board.


I'm getting a lot of people who are NOT forum savvy getting confused and not posting or registering...

Can you change that text to 'guests may not post new threads or reply to threads on this board' in the distribution?

You should really explain that as much as possible.  If it takes two lines to do it, then you should write two lines of text

I changed "may not" to "do not have permission to".  The message happens across the board, to guests and members alike.  It's based on member groups and permissions, so saying "Guests" would technically be incorrect.

Well, it's fine for your forum.    Just can't change it to say something incorrect for every forum.
