if for example I've a hidden forum, in the forums count on the forum statistics guests will be able to see that instead of 18 visible forums there are 19, they don't know how can it be. 19 but they can see only 18.
 
I would like to know if this issue was fixed in version 8.

This is done by design.

If it didn't include hidden forums people would complain that the stats are incorrect, so no matter what way it is done people will complain that it's a bug, when it's not.

I know it's much more work.

What do you think of adding this to the admin panel?

And I think anyway we need to count only the visible forums, also to administrators it needs to be visible cause they are able to see the hidden forums.

Sorry it's to late now to be able to make any database changes so it can not be added to the admin panel.
