I run a small private forum for architects, but would like to add an area accessible to the public, that the architect users can monitor, where laypeople can ask questions or contribute their own perspectives to discussions that are made open to the public. The idea is that members of the public se…

Here is the document how to set up: Adding users to groups through custom field automation

Maybe this works for your sign up process: Discourse Authentication Validations

Thanks @Don . Do other groups (like ‘Public’ in screenshot below) behave like the predefined trust_level groups, and if so, is there a way to prevent automatic progression to increased trust levels/permissions for users based on usage? Or is it only explicitly trust level groups that behave this wa…

You can set the Public group auto trust level. /g/group_name/manage/membership If you set it to e.g. 1, then the users in this group will be locked on Trust Level 1. It is useful if you add people automatically to this group when they signed up and they will automatically grant the TL1 (locked). O…

Hmm, I’m not sure about that :thinking: Isn’t that only applies for TL3 promotions if the auto TL set to 2? Edit: My bad, thanks @Moin for the clarification and sorry for the wrong info. My previous answer won’t keep users on the selected TL.

This use‑case is of interest to me as well. Similar kind of community but system modelers not architects. Thanks @Paul_King for pushing this along.

Above all I need to ensure content is never visible to public forum users unless explicitly posted to the public forum topic category. Also important is to ensure public users never gain a way to redefine their own topic categories access, even if trust levels do automatically increase.

I would do this: [图片] Alternative sign up pathways Support Hello wave I think the most of these available with: groups, categories permission, custom user fields and automation. To separate users on signup use Discourse Authentication Validations chaining user fields fun…

您确定他们无法达到更高的TL吗？我发现了一个bug topic，其中TL3晋升是在信任级别被组锁定后添加的，所以我认为它之前对其他TL也起作用了。
