Hide Section From Everyone
Hello,
I'd like to hide a certain section from everyone while browsing the forum including the admins instead of deleting it entirely.
Can it be done and if yes, how?
Thanks!

Re: Hide Section From Everyone
Create a group, then create the section and set the section's permission only for that group.
The original administrators group can see all the whole forum including hidden members, groups, widgets, and areas.

Sadly admins have to be able to view all forums. Like SLGray said the option isn't available for admins to not see forums.

Re: Hide Section From Everyone
This is where I'm stuck. The General -> Categories and forums -> Permissions -> Presets comboboxes only allow blank, All, Moderators and Administrators not individual user groups.SLGray wrote:[...] set the section's permission only for that group.
However, it has been said it's not possible anyways.
In that case: Solved.
Re: Hide Section From Everyone
Are you in the advanced permissions?

Re: Hide Section From Everyone
Uncheck the member boxes and the check the ones you only want to see that area.

Like we've said admins HAVE to view every forum. There is no way to hide a forum even for admins.
