When they make the group, they can choose public or invite only, or they can edit then and choose invite only.

I don't see how that is possible, are you viewing it as a admin, or a user?

Could you give us a test account to look at?

--------------- Added [DATE]1381519225[/DATE] at [TIME]1381519225[/TIME] ---------------

I can only see one Group and it's posts as a regular member. I'm not sure how many you have besides that. But I notice when I go to create groups, I don't have the option to restrict content viewing to Group Members. Go to vBulletin Options ? Group Options and make sure Allow Join-to-View Groups is set to Yes.

On a side note, what does this function do? Making groups private, and how does it work? Interested in this as well. Thx
