Members Only Section Of Forum

[jokersimpala]

I am making the forum for a club, I want the forum open to the public but want a specific section (Category) private to where only club members can access it. This way any club business is stays private. Can you help me out

Need to set up a group.

Admin Panel >> User & Groups >> Groups >> Make group

Then go to General Tab >> Under Forum >> Categories & Forum >> Click Permission with the red/green checks and click the box for the group for reply/write and view and read >Save

Can I do this for the entire Category so that all forums under this Category act the same way or do I have to do each individual this way. I havent checked on a non member site if I hide these like this will it hide this Category when any other non group memmmber opens the page

[airforce12]

No I don't think so

[harantony]

I think you can hide the categories by doing individuals |(with suggestion of MrMario) - it worked for me!

Yes change the permissions of all the forums within that category.
