GJ - create access permissions not working

Hi,

I only want "special" access to be able to create groups. However, I want registered to be able to participate in the groups they are invited to by the "special" group. ie. teacher and students. I want the students (registered) to be able to upload files, images etc...but not be able to "create" groups.

I set this is in the config area. However, upon checking there is no difference between the registered members and the special members....

Group create access is configured within GJ > Parameters > Groups > General using the "Create Access" parameter. It however can be overridden on a category by category level. Edit your category within GJ > Categories and check that "Create Access" is set to "Same as Global" under the categories Global tab. If still not working you probably have every acting as CB Moderators. Within CB > Configuration > Moderation ensure "Moderators View Access Level" is set very strict (create a new view access level that includes only the usergroups you want to have moderator access).
