First of all, thanks a lot for this amazing forum plug-in 😉

I've got a question about the search form.

My forum is configurated in the way that each UserGroup have only rights on this or that forum. But it's not only about rights. It's about the fact that member who doesn't have right on a forum shouldn't know that the others ones exist.

It works well, except for the search form.

Even if a member has limited rights on a specific forum, the search form shows all categories and forums...

Even with the visitor Group that has no rights at all...

 

Is there a way I've missed with parameters to force the search form following the users rights?

Thanks a lot for your lights on this.

Ok, That will be great.

For now I found this workaround, as custom CSS, letting me keeping the use of the search form but without showing the forum structure for everyone:

#wpforo #wpforo-wrap .wpfw-50 {

    display: none !important;

 

}

In the same state of mind, note that a private topic is actually well hidden for non-admin user profile, but it's still taken into account for the counting of topic in a forum, and this counting is seen by non-admin user...
