Greetings,

Is it possible to create a private catagory in a forum which is visible only to certain members of a group, Admins, for example?

If so, how do I do it?

Thanks!

UBB.classic currently doesn't have a hidden forum function. With 6.7, you can collapse categories.

Sure there is, don't add the forum to a category <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> ...

He was asking for permission based hidden forums <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

psst... Ron, he's less likely to reply if you don't point out when he's wrong.

I've learned from experience <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

ok, fine, make a passsword protected forum and don't add it to a category <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> ... Or set it up with any of the private forum permissions and don't add it to a category; only thing is your members will need to know the forum number to enter it since it wont be on the list...

Not to inundate you with suggestions, but if you're interested, UBB.threads does do permission-based hidden forums. <img src="https://www.ubbcentral.com/boards/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
