I want to add a special group to my forum. The can only see the categories that the are member of. Other categories (open for everyone) the can not see. Is this possible ?

Category permissions are additive. i.e. See See and Reply See and Reply and Create A lot can be done by setting permissions based on group membership. But it sounds like you are looking for a way to have the permissions be subtractive instead? In other words instead of Category - group members…

I believe this is already possible. Just create a private message, and invite the group as a tag, you don’t need to invite everyone individually.

Wouldn’t that be similar to having a category restricted to a group except if would be more like a topic restricted to a group? If I’m understanding, what @PatrickH is wanting is not an “allow group” but a “disallow group”.

it’s similar to this: New category permission - "cannot see"/"exclude" i would like that very much, that you exclude groups from categories (also the posts from these categories are not visible)

You should say more about your specific situation. Categories that are visible to everyone are visible to everyone. You want to violate a tautology. It sounds like what you really want is a separate forum for this other group.

[图片] pfaffman: It sounds like what you really want is a separate forum for this other group. partially true. What i (or my members) want is to have a 'separate forum in the forum. Where the can’t see the ‘basic questions’ The best way to tell you this; I want two forums (A & B) where 1 grou…

Then you’ll make the g1 have access to the categories and g2 not have access. You can control access to categories by group, so just put people in whatever group(s) is appropriate.

ok, but g1 must see the categories that are displayed in the open part (g2 is the closed part)

That’s not a problem. You can assign/remove post/reply/read access to any category for any, and as many, groups as you like.

Sorry, I don’t understand that. I know that that is possible, but it seems that I can not make it work?

Linking to a reply with similar use case example, but where exclusions (via group memberships) would be voluntary (opt-in), desired, and non-hierarchical.
