I have a 2 forums on www.zorums.com that I use for staff but after converting from vB 3.7 to MyBB 1.4 I noticed that these forums and the category they belong to are viewable by both members and guests dispite the permissions I set. The only way to make them non-viewable is to deselect "Active" and "Open" in the settings leaving them unusable by staff.

Because of the nature of the topics I cannot leave these forums viewable so if a support member wishes to troubleshoot please PM me and I will setup provide the necessary information for the Admin CP and database if needed.

When you set permissions, make sure "use group default" isn't checked.

Fixed. Feel free to close. The problem was that in the Configuration section the option "Forum Home Options" was selected "Yes" but when I selected "No" clicked save, and then selected "Yes" again and saved it the forums are now hidden. Smile
