Require login on the total website?

I am setting up an internal forum which should only allow logined users to view all the posts.
What should I do to make each page redirected to the login page if not logined?
Thanks

The easiest way is to setup your forum permissions that the Guest group cannot access and read any of your category's. To do this you go to your category management select the category and uncheck all guest permissions under the permissions tab.

Thanks. it works.
But how can I show a prompt which says "Please login" instead of an blank page?

@kowlin Hi is this still accurate? There seems to only be three permission categories for Guest Users, all of which I have unchecked, but they can still see the forum categories. The Categories section of the Admin settings doesn't display anything related to Access Control or a Permissions Tab. I'm am using the NodeBB hosted version of NodeBB.

@kev-m I figured this out. I was looking at the Global permissions and not the category specific permissions. To change the category there is a dropdown menu on the upper right hand side of the Manage>Privileges page. Then I select the category and remove the guest permissions.
