SOLVED Fully Private Categories/Posts
-
I appreciate this has been asked many times, and I found lots of posts asking for this feature, and even Github issue (https://github.com/NodeBB/NodeBB/issues/743)
None of the above however explains how to achieve it: I simply want private forum - no posts (or even categories) can not be seen unless you are logged in
Any help is appreciated

You can remove the find and access privileges for all categories from the guests group. That way only logged in users will see/access the categories.

@baris that's helpful, thank you
-
I have my forum set up in such a way:
- <url>/admin/general/navigation
- You have to click on all the categories you only want displayed to logged in users
- <url>/admin/manage/categories/
- You have to go to each category's
edit
page and turn off all access to guests under theprivileges
section
- You have to go to each category's
- <url>/admin/general/navigation
-
For future reference, this is what you have to do now:
<url>/admin/manage/privileges/
Change "Configuring privileges for..." from "Global" to each category. You can then remove all "Guest" privileges.
