AI Thread Summary
Users are experiencing permission issues when trying to post in the "Homework & Coursework Questions" section of the forum, while other areas function normally. This restriction is due to past problems with irrelevant content and spam in the learning materials sections. The community suggests that users should be able to post in various educational forums. There is a proposal for a customized message to inform users why their posting permissions are denied, which would clarify the intentional nature of the block. Overall, the discussion highlights the need for better communication regarding posting restrictions in educational forums.

Posting to "Advanced Physics Learning Materials"

When I try to post new thread in "Homework & Coursework Questions" (and it seems to be the same in all "education") it tells me that I haven't permission to do that. All other threads (for example "high energy") are working fine. Its a bug or a feature?
Thank you very much

Learning Materials are restricted access. Too many people were posting content not considered learning materials, and too many spammers were spamming.

One should be able to post in the "Homework & Coursework Questions" Forums, and in the various discussion forums.

If there is a link to an online learning research, then please post it here, or contact a Mentor by PM.
 


As questions like this pop up fairly often, I wonder if it is technically possible to add a customised message giving the reason whenever posting permission is refused, that is a message specifically tailored to the forum in question? That way, users will know the block is intentional and won't need to come here to ask why.
