Hello,

I just set up a staff forum on my forum (residentevil6forum.com) and despite what the permission say, to not show that forum to registered members or guests, that forum is still showing up for those people. I am unsure how to correct this problem.

Password protected forums still show up as long as the permission Can View Forum is checked.

Unless you temporarily hid them, I do not see any staff forums.

@dragon, I set the permissions to not show the forum to guests at all, it has nothing to do with me setting a password. The 'Can View Forum' permission is unchecked.

@Kodaks, I set the staff category to inactive for now to hid them, yes.

You must have mis-configured the permissions because nothing in the permissions system was changed in the latest release.
No longer involved in the MyBB project.

Do you have the Cookie Law pplugin activated ?

I have and am experiencing a very similar problem.
Anyone who disables cookies on the forum can view etc. all forums including private/hidden forums.

Anyone got any ideas about this please.
