From your board's control panel, go into Security management > Advanced security Scroll down to Fine-tune the ____ forum, where the ___ is the name of the forum you wish to make private. Set that forum's settings to: Require membership Require membership Application OR Invite only If you go the application route, there is a setting in your Misc settings, 4th option from the bottom, that says, Access application sends email to Head Admin:. If you check this box, you will receive an email whenever someone applies. To approve an application, go into Security management > Review membership applications For an invite-only forum, go into fine-tune the ___ forum as you did to create those settings, then on the left you'll see a button that says see members. Click on that, then type in username of the person you wish to let in. You could use passwords instead of application or invite, but passwords are too easily passed around and I personally don't care for them. Still, the choice is yours to make. nondisclosed_email@example.com (Lesigner Girl)Fri, 17 Oct 2008 00:46:31 +0000 Can I make a forum so that only certain members can view/posthttps://btherunboarddirectory.runboard.com/p242398,from=rss#post242398https://btherunboarddirectory.runboard.com/p242398,from=rss#post242398Wondering if I can make a forum so only approved members can view postings and get in?
