    You can create a category on your forums and disallow certain groups. This is from the 0.7.x dev release, but I believe the 0.6.x functionality was similar with a different UI:

    Edit:
    I think one "problem" with this is that an admin is required to make these. Having a small discussion or even a chat room per group could be a cool feature.

  • I think creating a group should also automatically create it's own private (or public) category. tbh, I'm surprised this isn't already a thing.

    I'm against creating group chat rooms, I think this is too social media-like for core.

    I would buy such a plugin.
    But I have no idea how much it would cost.

    ...and who are available to do this.

    All members of the group - Moderator?

    You can create new groups, they appear in that table, if you want just that group to be able to see a category, go to that category in the ACP, and tick Find, Access & Read, Create Topics & Reply.

    Untick registered-users boxes and guest boxes, Save.

    Thank you, but unfortunately is not suitable.
    I want to make a feature site - groups.
    Groups be located on the main page. Every registered person can create their own group on any topic. The discussions I want to do within the groups (without categories).

    Unfortunately, to do this is problematic.
    Need to purchase programmers services for that.

  • @XenTerSeO Contact us at [email protected], we've built something similar before, so we can appropriate that code for you.

    Yes, you can currently create a category and limit participation to specific group(s) or users.
