Set up a category ONLY for specific Users

You can set this up easily using category permissions. Here’s how:

1. Create a group (if you don’t already have one):

  • Go to your Admin → Groups
  • Click “New Group”, give it a name, and add the users who should have access.

2. Create or edit the category:

  • Go to Categories
  • Either create a new category or edit an existing one.

3. Set the permissions:

  • In the category settings, scroll to the Security section.
  • Remove the default everyone (and any other groups you don’t want).
  • Add your specific group.
  • Assign the permission level you want:
    • See → allow them to view the category
    • Reply → allow replies
    • Create → allow new topics

4. Save your changes.

That’s it — now only the users in that group can see or interact with the category. Other users won’t even see it listed.
