Separate permissions for "New Discussion" or "Comment"

edited September 2011 in Vanilla 2.0 - 2.8
Should it be good if we can have Guests a permission for only Comment (view and add comment) not start a new Discussion.

Right now, if I give them a permission to view category. They can also Start a New Discussion and even for some View-Only-Category, Guests still can post a comment which any other roles can't.

    -) Funny, really.

    You can set category IDs in config:
    $Configuration['Plugins']['Anonymouse']['Category'] = array(1,2,...);
    This overwrite given permission *.View

    And for guest only one type of permssion 'View'. There is no 'Add'.
  • oh, I have to set an array on config.php manually. I only tried on /settings/anonymouse.

    If I get this right, so Guest can't "Start a New Discussion" on single "View" permission checked category. Is that right?

    Yep, known bug :[-

    > Is that right?
    If guest can VIEW category, then he can ADD comments/discussions there.
    I'll think how this problem can be solved.
