Modify Permissions in Expert Centers

How to set the Expert Center so Experts can only Reply to Questions and Members can only Ask

 

Follow-up directions after our conversation about who should be able to reply to an Expert Center Non-Confidential Question.

Because the “ask” is for the the Expert to only reply, this means the original requester will not be able to reply back to the Expert. They will be able to like the reply.

You may want to think about putting on the Forum page or on the Thread page a note that states:

If you have follow up questions, please create a new question for this Expert.
