I have a bunch of forum topics for my moderators and co-administrators. I have the permissions set to only allow administrators and moderators access but for some reason guests are able to see the forums. They can't get in but I have notices several trying to get in. Is there any way to hide these forums from non-admin members? Right now they are showing as private.

How about simply not showing the forums to guests (why would guests need to see that you have a moderator forum anyway?). Forum Manager > select Forum to Edit > Show Private Forum > No.

They wouldn't, which is why I was trying not to show them. I didn't see the option you mentioned. It's working fine now. Thank you Lynne!

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
