If I am the admin, and have to approve/activate new members, why is it that anyone may read the forum? My activated members are telling me they can read without even logging in. This was supposed to be a private forum. This is a very serious concern. Please advise. affraid

Hi,

You may not have set the permissions for the forums so that only members can see the forum
Admin panel >> General > Categories & forums > X/TICK > un-tick the "allow members ... " & save it.

I am sorry, I am not following you. If I disallow the members, how does that stop everyone from viewing? I want the members to be able to read...
