Suzy, click on the administrate user link on their profile, then in ACP select groups from the top right dropdown and just make sure they are only on registered users and moderators isn't showing, if so remove from group.

They may have the default reg group but still showing within moderators group too :good:

Yeah I just checked all that again LDM she is only in the reg user group and has the correct colour name, in the G Moderator group she does not appear at all.

Anything else it could be ?

Thanks Suz

Hi LDM x

I have changed the status of one member from a G Moderator to a Reg User ...... I have checked and she is only in the Reg user group as default and not in the G Moderator group now .....she is showing the correct colour in her user name for Reg User too.

But, when you click on Legend (where she was as a G Moderator) she is still there as a Reg User ? I cannot seem to get rid of her from the Legend ?

All sorted, you had correctly taken the user out of groups but they still had some moderator permissions set in this screen..

which have now reset and they are a normal reg user. :good:
You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.

No worries suzy, with seperate perms on that user, it would have been hard to spot.

What are promotions, something at work?

No I mean advertising my Site love, I work from home as a Graphic Designer so I can promote it here and there ...... getting there but its hard to get it off the ground in a short time, this is a long term project for me ;)

I think the main thing I want now is Category Icons and the fonts larger for the Cats, I have tried myself today as I really want to learn to do it - but I am finding it a struggle and I have no doubt I will be asking for your help very very shortly on this one xxxxxx

:D ahh I see now, messageboard promotions!

Changing cat images and fonts should be easy. Alter dt topiclist I believe in css and alter images by overwriting in imageset with new images and changing the size.
