Sure you can by group... In a simple setup, you need two grous:
Members and Admins. And you can easily use the member group as dkp group, too, so no need for any additional group for basic functionality.

Yes, this is the regular way, any EQdkp is working.
Mercwar wrote:there really should be an option when setting forum permissions to allow or disallow use of the dkp modules with disallow on default like the rest of the options are anyway....
The integration of this would be really nice, but as this are two complete different systems (phpBB and EQdkp) the integration of this would not be very simple. Anyway, we are trying to improve all functions of our system, so maybe this would be a feature in the future.

There are two ways to enable/disable blocks: The Admin menu at the portal section, or by editing the style template file directly.

Double login is a security feature, provided by phpBB. But as you can set cookies, and save your login data, you can completely automate this.
Logging out everytime is only nessecary, if you use a public PC. Anyway, you get automatically logged out from the admin session, after 10 minutes of inactivity within the admin panel.
