Managing Forum in Community Portals in Dynamics 365 (Using Forum Access Permissions) – Part 2

Suppose we have following 3 forums in our Community Portal

• And we want a particular portal user to have rights to manage a specific forum, say for e.g. test forum in our case.
• For this let us create a new web role, here we have specified the Community Portal as the WebSite.

• Navigate to Community – Forum Access Permissions

• Create a new permission for the Test Forum and assign the newly created Web Role.

  (Specify Forum as Test Forum and Right as Grant Change)

• Open the contact record (portal user) in CRM and assign the new web role.

• Login to the community portal.
• On opening the General Discussion forum, the user doesn’t have any edit rights.

• On opening the Test Forum, the user has the modify rights

Hope it helps.
