I don't know if you knew about it or not, just thought that maybe you can look into that. because you know my site, and there are files that we wish to keep hidden from others. and only persons with special permission can access them.

Just to be sure I understand:

- If you define a forum as 'not active' in the VB admincp, then it does not appear in the drop-down list of forums which you use in LDM to protect categories/entries.

This seems to me to be correct? Do you think LDM should display all forums, regardless of whether they are active or not?
