Ranks

Members are assigned a rank based on the number of posts they make on your forum. The rank automatically increases when a member's post count attains the next rank level. Rank level is displayed in a member's mini-profile.

Ranks can be used when configuring permissions for content access and participation.

Rank List​

New forums have seven preset ranks. You can customize or delete these existing ranks as well as create additional ranks.

The Name and Min Posts columns are sortable. Click on a column title to sort by that column. Click the column title again to toggle between ascending and descending order.
