Hey there,

I am really sorry for the delay of this reply as it is a weekend for us here.

Yes, that is possible to configure this.

This is what you need to setup on your current setting regarding with your scenario :

1. Create new user group for VIP from your backend.
2. Imagine normal user account is under this usergroup "Registered", so you have to configure this ACL from backend > Easyblog > ACL > edit "Registered" user group > set 'Allowed To Write New Post' to YES and set 'Allowed To Publish Post' to NO (screenshot : http://take.ms/OZzmg)

Edit "VIP" usergroup > set 'Allowed To Write New Post' to YES and set 'Allowed To Publish Post' to YES

Hope this will help.

Thank you Arlex,


hopefully I did it ride. I was a little bit confused about Group in Custom Fields. But i believe you suggested a new User Group in Joomla back end - Section USER Groups. I named that group "VIP" and made settings in Easy Blog ACL. Please check if i dit it ride.?

You're welcome.

Yes, I mean you have to create new user group from Joomla user group section (screenshot : http://take.ms/PNbg7).

But I've checked on your site, it look like you haven't create it yet right, but you can give it a try and see how it goes.
