	Add More MemberGroups 1.5 - Readme File

	Please read the file carefully before you install the Mod!

	-------------------------------------------------------------------------

	Install instructions:

	If you have installed the "Global Moderator Mod" please remove it. It's
	included with this mod again. Upload the "MemberGroups.pl" to your
	"Sources" directory, the "Memberstats.txt" to your "Variables" directory
	and the gifs to your "YABBImages" directory. If you want to give the
	"Global Moderator" more rights in the board, go to the Admin Center
	-> Forum Settings/Preferences and enable the preferred options!

	Hope you enjoy it and if you find bugs please report them to me	on
	"http://boardmod.yabbforum.com"! Thx for your help!

	1. - How to add more Membergroups

	- This is a easy part now. Go to the Admin Center and click on
	  "Edit Member Groups"! Now you will see a new layout and it's
	  most selfexplaining what you have to do. (I hope!)
	  Just add as much Membergroups you want!

	ATTENTION:

	  If you want to add a MemberGroup which should no user get with
	  his posts just put a small "x" there! Case Sensitive!


	-------------------------------------------------------------------------


	2. - How to edit Membergroups

	- Simply edit the fields you want to change or choose new stars
	  and click "Save"!


	-------------------------------------------------------------------------


	3. - How to remove Membergroups

	- It can't be easier! Just mark the checkbox in the "Del?"
	  column and click on Save.


	-------------------------------------------------------------------------


	4. - How to give users access to private Forums

	- Go to the Admin Center and click on the link named
	  "Edit Categories (reorder/create/remove)". In the field
	  "Only access for membergroup(s):" of the category you want to
	  give the usergroups access to just add the Groups name!
	  If a user reaches the post count of the Member Group the user
	  will see the Category. If you don't want that a usergroup should
	  be reached through post count just set the Posts to "x"! Then
	  you need to give the user who should have access there this
	  MemberGroups by editing his profile!


	-------------------------------------------------------------------------


	5. How to give a user a Global Moderator Status

	- Modify the Users Profile and just give him the Status
	  "Global Moderator" or whatever you've named it into and click on
	  "Change Profile". Thats all! You can remove it by clicking on the
	  empty field and then "Change Profile"!


	-------------------------------------------------------------------------


	6. What is a Global Moderator?

	- Global Moderators are able to moderate all Forums in your Board.
	  They have the rights to edit, move or delete posts.
	  If you want to allow them to have more rights on the board you can
	  enable those options in the Admin Center in Forum Preferences and
	  Settings. They will have their own Moderator Center! A similar Version
	  to the Admin Center! The Global Moderators aren't displayed in the
	  Moderator Rows!

	7. Credits

	- You may have noticed that i have implemented the "Global Moderators"
	  Mod! This mode was first done by DaveB and i just implemented it here
	  to complete the "Add more MemberGroups" mod.
	  It wouldn't be perfect without that mod! So big thx goes out to
	  DaveB! Great work!

	- Update:
	  Since there is version 2.2 of Global Moderators out i've updated AMM
	  with the updated version. Version 2.2 was done by Seawolf.
	  Thx for allowing me to integrate that mod again Seawolf.
