I know that a simple if condition would do that, but it would be nice to be able to use radio buttons to define which usergroups can or can not see the tabs. (as you can with DevNavbar)

It is much simpler to change permissions this way, rather the way you sugested. :)

I don't understand what this does either. I have several hidden forums on my forum home using the default vB.

Go here and look at the forums, then click the Race News tab. It will bring up a drop down of forums not on the forums home.

Any news on this little development MrPHD? As soon as that is achieved this will be perfect for my needs :)

for works correctly fix forumhome_post1 with final if and not into first row :)

Can you please post the code here ?

Why make a plugin to do this? Why not just set the category display order to "0"?

Hi, becouse if you Hide only display order to "0" not show up posts and threads. regards

I tried it and I removed this hack

Hi,

I have an odd question about hiding forums. I want to hide a News forum from being listed on the main forum homepage for everyone except admins/mods/supermods, but everyone can see thread content from it on the vbAdvanced CMS frontpage of the site. Does anyone know how I can do this? I tried changing settings in the Usergroup Permissions, but then they cannot view the News threads info on the front CMS page of the site. Any ideas?

Have you tried setting "Forum is Active" to "No" and then making a re-direct to it only visible to staff?
That might work =]

EDIT: It would be easier to see what this hack actually does if the test board were to be in english, Im finding it hard to tell what the things pointing to...
