Helpful, thank you! I think that’s a better solution.

Guessing if someone belongs to both groups A and B and group A only has view permission on a category and group B has full permissions including posting new topics for the category than the member inherits the full permissions?

We have a lot of groups members are a part of so will probably my have to remove a member from all groups except the special group which restricts their permissions if that is how permissions get inherited.

Thanks for the help!
