How to Allow Everyone to Read a Forum Category while Restricting Posting and Commenting Privileges to Subscribers Only

I am currently in the process of creating a forum category where users can post products to find buyers. My objective is to allow only subscribers to be able to post their products and add comments on them, while enabling all visitors, regardless of their subscription status, to view posts related to this category.

I would appreciate any guidance you can provide on the steps required to set up such a category within the forum.

You can edit permissions for a category so only admins and moderators can write posts. To learn how to change who can post in a category, visit the following page: https://support.wix.com/en/article/wix-forum-creating-a-category

so making specific users moderators could help

Hi Andrew,

I appreciate your response, but I am still finding the process confusing.
For instance, I want only logged-in members to be able to view the content but not post or comment.

While I can manage the permissions for logged-in members to only view the content, I am unable to give access to some members to post and I am unable to restrict commenting for all posts at once, and it seems like I need to disable commenting individually for each post.

Finally what I am looking for

  1. Selected members only can post, No payment
  2. logged-in members to only view
  3. Post owners only can comment

Please help
