hello discourse community. here is axim from freiLand cultural center in Potsdam. We use discourse for our internal organisation and we are over 150 people using ist. It works fine. I have a question: We do not want that the groups or users can be seen from the public. In the administration setti…

To close this topic out, a visibility option for “Logged on users” was added a couple of years ago.

Is there a way to either make all groups hidden to everyone, or disable the hyperlink for groups a person is a member of on their own profile page? We are using some groups that automate via SSO to identify the types of users and potentially gate certain areas or our community. We don’t mind if us…

Any suggestions on this? We’d like to either Hide groups even on your own profile or Disable hyperlink to groups shown on own profile

I am also looking for option for making certain users and groups invisible. Option to be invisible can be granted by admin to certain groups. Reason is simple, some would like to join the forum and not be seen. And yet, people in general would like plugins like who’s online. I often want to make s…

I have a feeling a better approach would not to have this be a Group setting, but a new Who’s Online plugin setting. Something like a “I’m busy / short on time and I don’t want to come across as being rude by ignoring members right now” setting to toggle “reveal my presence - hide my presence”.

I am one of the users of that specific discourse and due to this setting, it is not possible to have any category published to the public. We are running a makerspace as part of the project and would like to share at least technical discussions with a broader community. I understand and support th…

We have the same situation and the same need.

Can you explain your actual use case here, curious to see if we can work something else out.

I’m a group owner on the site, rather than the admin - who is currently looking at this. Hence my answer may be a bit sketchy. I’ve asked him to consider a suggestion from one of your staff to solve this for us, but can’t try it myself - and looking at it more closely, it doesn’t cover public vs mem…

I’m confused here. Changing group visibility does not affect the visibility of categories. As mentioned in the other topic, if you change the visibility from everyone to Group owners, members and admins, it will not be visible to the public. You can see how this works right here on Meta. If you look…

Thank you Josh; I’ll pass this on too and hopefully we’ll be sorted.

Yes thanks, this is the obvious workaround. Not very pretty though.
