I searched for the answer to this without any results. What I need to do is to control user access to the top menu by their security settings just like I can do with topics. I know I can change the menus but I don't know how to let people see only what they can access based on their user group. I also know that once they click on a menu item you can normally control what they see then but I don't want them to even see certain menu items. Any ideas? Thanks.

Yeah, that's not really supported. But since you can use PHP in header.thtml, you could try something like <? if (SEC_inGroup ('Restricted')) print '<a href="...">Restricted Entry</a>'; ?> This tests if the current user is a member of a group called 'Restricted' and only prints the menu entry when s/he is. bye, Dirk
