I have exactly the same issue on latest install (I know this post is 2 years old).

Created a category and forum that has guest as No Access. 

Latest post shows the title, and when clicking I get the "no access", but the title reveals too much.

If I sort by latest posts, it is not selected.

You should delete wpForo cache, please navigate to Dashboard > Forums > Dashboard admin page and click on the button, then delete your website cache if you have other cache plugins, then logout and check it again as guest.

are you sure the forum of that post is set "No Access" for all usergroups excerpt admins?

Is there any way for Latest Post to display according to who is logged in? E.g currently I have posted in Admin section (only visible to admin users) but a general user can still see the title of that post displayed at the bottom (latest post)

kind regards,
