I restricted users from creating posts, but they can still click to create posts

How should I configure it to prevent users from posting new topics?

You need to edit the category permissions and remove the “Create” permission.

If you’re still having trouble, post the permissions you’ve configured.

Thank you for your answer. I have set it to only allow employees to post. When I change the “Everyone” permission to “View Only”, the “New Topic” button does not disappear, and they can even edit. They should not have the option to post new topics.

Have you have saved the category settings? (I have to ask)

Have you tested with a regular user that is not a member of staff?

I saved the category settings and refreshed the browser. I am using a non-staff account, and I can edit. The category cannot be selected, it shows as read-only, and I cannot create new topics. I remember that the “New Topic” button was previously unclickable, and topics could not be edited. This would be logical, right?

This was changed a while ago

What do you mean by “edit topics”?
