    My forum is private by invite only.
    I see guests show up and one of them was viewing one of the forums.
    There should be no guests at all, as it is private.
    What am I not understanding here.

    Thank you.

    Could you provide your forums link for us to take a look?

    It seems to be all correct.

    My only thoughts are that one of your members logged out while viewing a thread and its shown them as guest viewing that thread.

    Everything looks completely hidden though so what I've said above is only a theory.

    OK--I didn't know that could happen.
    So as it is, no non-member can get past the portal?

    I have another quick question: Thank you in advance.
    Can a regular member (non-admin/moderator) edit someone else's post?

    That would be correct, all I can view is the logon page.

    Unless they've been given moderation powers, they cannot edit anyone else's post other than their own.

    Thank you very much--take care.

    Please don't double/triple post. Your post need to be separated by 24 hours before bumping, replying or adding more information. Please use the edit button instead.
