Restrict posting in a category until they "like" a topic

Good afternoon. I have a Buy/Sell/Trade category on my site that I’d like to restrict posting in until a member “likes” the rules topic. I asked the AI Bot, and it did give me some instructions. However, it seems that it requires Discourse Automation that is only available on hosted plans.

Is there a way that I can do this on my self-hosted platform?

Hi, it is actually bundled with the community edition for free. You can enable it in the Plugins tab.

Nevermind. I figured out that I can add the Discord Automation plugin manually…

Hmm, perhaps with Discourse Policy and group permissions?

  • add-users-to-group: accepts a single group as input; users who accept the policy will be automatically added into this group (when policy is manually revoked or if the policy version is updated, user(s) gets removed from group)
