Can't get custom block to be invisible to certain groups

Help! I've got a custom HTML block that should only be seen by members of "Anonymous" and "Registered Users" groups, not by "Webmasters" or "Paying Members" groups. I've set the block access rights in the Admin area to No for Webmasters and Paying Members, but the block won't disappear. What can I do?

Thank you for your help.

Almost there beerme

. If you goto the admin area, then goto groups you will be able to set access permission for each group to your custom block.

It's the strangest thing... I did set the block access rights, but the block is still visible to me as Webmaster. Interesting...

Thanks, guys! As always, help is just a mouse-click away!

Do note that the yes/no in system admin -> blocks is a global setting to turn it on or off.

The drop-down menus in the top of that page is only a filter - it has nothing to do with permissions.

All block access permissions are set in system admin -> groups -> [Selected Group]

perhaps the user he is using to test is in both the Registered Users and Webmasters group?

Oh right - that too.

Your "default admin user" as created during the installation is both in the Registered Users and Webmasters groups
