Topics in Private/Hidden/Unjoined groups are showing in Forums

Is this suppose to happen? How to fix it?

Right now users can see all topics in unjoined/private/hidden groups in:
1. /forums/ (Showing Topic By Freshness)
2. Recent Topics Widgets

The users can see the topic title, but when they click into, they still have no access.
But is it possible to not make those titles displayed?

Thanks!

Interesting, I have this too.

It would be nice to make topics they can’t access invisible in recent topics widgets etc

Run the repair tools in Tools > Forums one at a time. There is a specific one for BuddyPress group forum relationships, but it is not a bad thing to run all of these repair tools every now and then.

I tried repairing BP Group Forum Relationships but the topics in hidden groups are still visible to users.

Did you make sure the hidden groups forum was also hidden? You can edit the forum in the WordPress backend and just change the post visibility to hidden.

Thanks!

After changing, it worked for Hidden and Private, but Unjoined is still visible.
Is it possible to make Unjoined not shown?

Also, I realized that the Forum Post Visibility doesn’t change when the group does, so it stays its original status.

For example if I make a private group to public, the post is still hidden.
And if I make a public group to private, the post still appears.
Is it possible to fix it?
