Passwords? Empty Passwords?

Post by kate27 November 23rd 2008, 3:46 pm

Hi, is it possible to password protect a forum? I have one class and I want to make it so that only members who know the password can gain entry. Or, if not, what about, can only people in certain groups be allowed entry?

Please help!

I don't believe you can password protect a forum.
you CAN put members into a group then allow them permission to access the forum
Read the FAQs about Orgainizing Groups
that explains the procedure very well.
