@justinah,

Ok, so created on homepage...added my customers so 10,000 to members, shows 10,000 active members but no activity do they have to sign up?

Could you please clarify a bit more? Please provide the exact steps you've taken to help us better understand the issue

Also when you land on it, its all open, can i make it so login to get into forum so no random just posting, like it to be my customers and anyone that bothers to register?

Please set 'No Access' for all usergroups in the 'Forum Permissions' section on the forum Add/Edit screen. Please carefully read this FAQ for guidance: https://wpforo.com/community/faq/wordpress-user-roles-wpforo-usergroups-and-forum-accesses/#post-39664

Also, how to hide cuztimer names showing... just got a telling off by a costumer who didn't want real name showing... may need to delete the forum doesn't seem user friendly....

Please read this FAQ for clarification: https://wpforo.com/community/faq/nickname-vs-username-vs-display-names/

Robert provides an explanation on Nickname vs Username vs Display Names.

I added the customer user list so around 10,000 to it not sure how now but says on forum 10,000 active members but there isn't

Your forum has 10.1K members. Please refer to the attached screenshot for confirmation.

Yes reading on forum can't really hide there real names??

Simply use the wpForo "Display Name" and "Nicename" fields on the Forum > My Profile > Account front-end page to customize the names as you prefer.

Yes. 

I'd recommend reading the wpForo documentation as well. The plugin offers dozens of useful features, allowing you to customize your forum as you wish: https://wpforo.com/docs/wpforo-v2/
