Data

forum

Name(string) : Title of the forum
Category(identifier) : Category related to the forum
Moderator(user or group) : A user with the pre-defined permission "Moderate" can be selected to have control over a forum. This control involves opening/blocking topics; and deleting any posted messages.
Status(integer) : Two possible statuses: “Open”, allowing posting of messages and creation of topics; and “Blocked”, preventing the posting of messages (including editing and quoting messages) and creation of topics for that forum.
Once a forum is “Open” and several messages have been posted, if the service administrator changes the status of the forum to “Blocked”, it will continue to be viewable with its topics and messages, but no new topics or messages may be added, and the topics and messages that have already been created can only be deleted by the forum moderator.

Permissions

Administer: Allow administration of all categories, forums, topics, and messages of the service. This permission implies that the user also has permission to "Moderate" and "Post Message".
