To install this plugin : Go to Dashboard>plugins>add new Search for ‘private groups’ Click install and then activate go into settings and set up as required. Settings Go to Dashboard>settings>Private Groups There are 4 settings tabs and 2 management tags. Forum Visibility tab. This tab allows you to set forum visibility. By default where the forum has groups set, then these are only visible to authorised users. However you may want users to see that forums exist (to attract new forum users), but not to see content. For instance on a cookery site you might have a cake group, who exchange recipes and advice on cakes. You might want people to sign up before being able to contribute, but if they don’t know the forum exists, they won’t join. So by listing the forums (and optionally the description – see tab below) users can see they exist, and if they click the forum or freshness links, they can be taken to any url or wordpress page you wish. Typically this might be a sign-up page, or a ‘you can’t access’ page. For instance you page might say Sorry, you need to be a member to see this area. To join click here Login if need-be [bbp-login] In this tab, you can set whether non-group members can see the forums in the indexes (but not access). If the forum is set to public, then both non-logged in and logged in users will see this. If the forum is set to private, then only logged in users will see the existence of these forums. this gives a highly granular approach to what forums are displayed for different groups.
