It seems that some threads/posts info (threads no., posts no., last post) will leak when forum permissions "Can view forum?" & "Can view threads within forum?" are set to No and Yes respectively.
Note: "Hide Private Forums?" is set to No.
For a user in only one usergroup and set this usergroup's permission for a specific forum as follows:
"Can view forum?" - Yes
"Can view threads within forum?" - Yes
.. will result that the user:
"Can view forum?" - yes
"Can view threads within forum?" - no
.. will result that the user:
"Can view forum?" - no
"Can view threads within forum?" - Yes
.. will result that the user:
Note: "Hide Private Forums?" is set to No.
For a user in only one usergroup and set this usergroup's permission for a specific forum as follows:
"Can view forum?" - Yes
"Can view threads within forum?" - Yes
.. will result that the user:
- can see all the forum's info listed in index/forumdisplay (threads no., posts no., last post)
- can enter the forum
- can access/read threads in the forum
- With both set to No, the result is three can'ts
"Can view forum?" - yes
"Can view threads within forum?" - no
.. will result that the user:
- can't see any the forum's info listed in index/forumdisplay (no threads no., no posts no., and no last post)
- can enter the forum
- can't see the thread list (Sorry, but you do not have permission to view threads in this forum.)
- can't access/read threads in the forum (You do not have permission to access this page. This could be because of one of the following reasons:)
"Can view forum?" - no
"Can view threads within forum?" - Yes
.. will result that the user:
- can see all the forum's info listed in index/forumdisplay (threads no., posts no., last post)
- can't enter the forum (You do not have permission to access this page. This could be because of one of the following reasons:)
- can't access/read threads in the forum (You do not have permission to access this page. This could be because of one of the following reasons:)
Could be wrong but worth a try.
