ACP Restrictions allow you to grant a user or group access to the Admin Control Panel, but restrict their access only to certain areas.
For example, you may want to add an administrator who is able to add new forums, but not delete existing ones.
You can control Admin CP restrictions from Admin CP --> Members --> Manage ACP Restrictions.
Use the tools to add restrictions to a user or group, or to manage existing restrictions.

Remember, any user or group that you give Admin CP access to will have complete freedom to use any functions of the control panel, unless you restrict their access here.

A user or group must have Admin CP access before you can add their restrictions.
To give a group Admin CP access, toggle the "Can access Admin CP?" setting from the Manage User Groups page.
To give a user Admin CP access, move them into an administrator group from the Manage Members page.
User restrictions override group restrictions, if you add restrictions for a user who belongs to a group that also has restrictions, this user will NOT inherit those restrictions - the member record overrides any group records configured.
