Hi,

 

I would like to make all posts unavailable to users who are not logged in, including the "Recent Posts" page. I managed to do this for all other pages using settings -> forum accesses and unchecking everything for the Access name "No access," but it is still possible to view the Recent Posts page even when "Can view forum" is unchecked.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciate!

Hi @big_al,

As you can see in the screenshot below, if you set "No Access" for each forum, in the "Recent Post" page you don't see any posts. See the screenshot below: https://www.screencast.com/t/NVONWrUO

Can you explain what you mean? I already have every access turned off in settings. Not sure what you mean by each forum. This is what the forum accesses page looks like for me:

@big_al,

I mean you should go to the Dashboard > Forums > Forums admin page and edit each Category and Forum and make sure in the "Forum Permissions" settings for the Guest usergroup you set "No Access"

See the screenshots below:
