Solved Guest access to forum

Post by alicia February 27th 2009, 4:59 pm

Hello

I have tightened up the security on my forum due to being stalked by a disturbed individual. I have made it so only registered members can access it and I have to approve any registration request.

So how come I still get notification of 'guests' being online.

I am very protective of my members, they have been through a lot of heartache.

Because the guest is viewing the homepage that says
Login/REGISTER.
It doesn't mean they can access your forum/topics.

Those are just notifications. Even if they were online they can't see the forums because you've made it viewable only by members.
