Making individual Forum's Private for select users
I operate a training group, I want to be able to have the general forum's that anybody can access, but I also want user's that have actually taken the training courses to have a separate section that they can discuss the stuff in the training and ask questions that we dont want the general public to have access too.. is this possible?

You can make a group like "special guest" andd then you make a forum and go to permissions on that forum and choose the option only viewable for specal guest group

That's how I thought it would work but even after creating a group called Trainees - it still only gives the options for All, Members, Admins. in the permissions fields.

Click advanced and then you get the possibility to set the Forum only viewable for trainees and not for normal registered and guests
Re: Making individual Forum's Private for select users
Admin Panel>General>Forum>Categories & forums>X/tick> Advanced for each forum. Untick Guest & Members permissions for each of those forums you wish whichever members' groups to have special permissions to view. Check (tick) the permissions you wish them to have. Check Save for each forum permission changed.
