5) Under "Display Order" type "0"
6) (Optionally) I made it a child under my parent category.
7) "Act as Forum" set to "no"
8) Save settings
9) Go back to "Forums & Moderators" --> Forum Manager
10) Find the new forum and add some child forums the normal way.
11) Don't forget to create a link to the new hidden forum somwhere so people can get to it. (I added it to my top menu).

HOPE THAT HELPED!

This works great except that they can no longer use the jump menu or do advanced searches on that forum. The forum name will not show up on either of those lists. Any idea how to fix that?

Thanks!
