minimalarch and I are talking and he is going to help with the archives. does he need any permission elevation to be able to edit them?
He should be able to create them. He's too new for me to just blindly give him moderator privileges. He can edit those that he creates, for the time being. He should (anyone should) be able to create a new topic (new archive). They can then edit their own posts.
I'm not comfortable just blindly handing over moderator powers on the forum.
I understand, I just wasnt sure if as a new user he could create new posts in the archive folders
They should be able to. If not, that's a permission I can change and am willing to change.
I'd have them try it. Troubleshoot it now so that we know it'll work. Have them go back to the oldest thread on Poal and then they can work forward from there, using the post date that's listed in the thread.
