Answered Security options in ModX 2.4.2

Hi, hello, welcome.
Recently i have found this wonderful piece of software (yes ModX). Currently i am working on some project. Until now, there was everything what I need to know in MODXDocs and on other great Sites on net. But my head hit the wall. I am trying to disable specific sections of Articles for customer. I can't find Security tab (and FormCustomisation, Tab Regions) features and options which were in Modx 2.0. in Admin menu (mentioned in this topic: https://forums.modx.com/thread/73776/disable-specific-sections-of-articles). Can someone tell me where can find them now in ModX 2.4.2? MODXDocs seems to be bit outdated in this topic. Thanks in advance for any help.

is it this, what you are looking for?

I wouldn't use Articles. Old and no longer supported. It always was overbearing, limited and difficult to work with. And don't try to uninstall it!

If you can get past the Russian documentation, check out modx.pro's Tickets. It started out as a help-desk type messaging and ticket system, and grew into a full-blown articles/blogging/posting system.
http://demo.modx.pro/en/tickets/
http://docs.modx.pro/components/tickets/

Otherwise look at Collections and pdoTools with its listing snippets to manage and display your blogs. I prefer MODXTalks (again from the Russian community) for commenting, but Quip also works. There is the very interesting Flatso theme/site all set up for blogging, much nicer than Articles ever was.

did you click there?
Then you should get the formcustomization - link in the dropdown.

Ah. Well, even Articles will be better than WordPress

Bruno17 Yes. I was searching there. I have found Form Customisation - small success - in Manager Customisation but i still can't find Regions, like Michelle84 was sayning

In Form Customisation go to Regions, add a new tab and use the settings...

in this threrad: https://forums.modx.com/thread/73776/disable-specific-sections-of-articles.
In MODXDocs there is shown how to do it in older versions of Revo: https://rtfm.modx.com/revolution/2.x/administering-your-site/customizing-the-manager/form-customization-sets/customizing-tabs-via-form-customization But in 2.4.2 it seems that this option is somewhere else or not?
