Hello
As far as I can see, it is not possible to hide the members from inside wpforo.
Am I right?
Thanks for your assistance
Hi @mlapl1,
It's possible. Just follow the solution provided here: https://wpforo.com/community/how-to-and-troubleshooting-2/hide-members-tab/#post-852
@sofy apparently the interface has changed since then. the "groups" menu doesn't look at all like that in version 1.8.1. i've looked at the "forum access" tab in the settings also but to no avail.
so, how, with the current wpForo version, hide the access to the forum members?
thanks in advance for the info.
Use the same permissions shown on the screenshot above. It's till the same. This method can be used to hid members for certain usergroups. In that example you can hide members for Guest Usergroup.
Also, you can hide all members of certain usergroup for all and remove from the members page using the "Display on Members List" option in edit Usergroup screen.
An the last way, is just removing the Members Menu from the forum menu. Forum menu is a simple WordPress menu. Here is the doc: https://wpforo.com/docs/root/getting-started/forum-menu/
@robert thanks, the menu editing did it. but i don't understand why my usergroups settings page looks so different from yours – see screenshot.
The screenshot is the usergroup edit screen. Just click any of Usergroup and you'll see that screen.
Thank you so much. Obviously I missed seeing it.
