Hi,

When I created hidden Forum(s) only members or groups who have access to it will be able to view the name and the content of these Forums.  However, in the forum_topics.asp and the forums_posts.asp under where it say Jump To such forum.. all these forums are displayed.  How can I make this go away?

Thanks!!

Yep you have got one there. You can not jump to the forum using the jump menu if you have not go the privileges to do so but it is there to see although hidden in Forum.

OK, the user can't jump to a forum he hasn't privilege to see, but it's quite an unelegant issue to let him see what I can't do! This is just confusing and messes up navigation...is there a way to avoid this problem?

I think this is a nonsense: there are options and mods to hide forum and categories, so voices in that menu should be hidden too. Or, at least, provide an option to hide that menu!
