Access to Forum by Registered Users Only

How do I prevent non registered users from viewing or reading our forum postings. I am not sure if this is something that can be controlled in the Control Panel to configure it ?. I want to set it, so only registered users who are logged in to our vBulletin site are able read the forums.

Thanks

If you want to do it for all forums/sections, go the to your admincp > usergroups > usergroup manager and select the unregistered/not logged in group. If you want them to be able to see the forums, but not inside threads select "No" for "Can View Thread Content". If you don't want them to see the forums at all until they log in, select "No" for "Can View Forum" also.

If you want to keep guests out of only some forums, select the same options, but do it through the forum permissions. Admincp > Forums and Moderators > Forum Permissions. Then find the particular forums and usergroups that you want to change. :D
