hide a specific forum

Hi!

I want to hide a specific forum from being shown in the forums overview.. (I do not provide a link to ../forums, but users could easily find it by simply cutting the ‘official’ forums URLs down to ../forums)

So this specific forum should ONLY be accessible by clicking a very hidden link (a single “.” within a specific thread). But it should still be accessible by anyone, who is clever enough to find that hidden link. All this is part of a ‘game’, so to speak..

Any ideas about how to do that would be greatly appreciated!

```
add_filter('bbp_before_has_forums_parse_args', 'rew_hide_forums');

function rew_hide_forums($args='') {
 $args['post__not_in'] = array('31867');
return $args ;
}
```
where 31867 is the ID of the forum you want to hide, you can do multiple using array('31867', '45655') etc.

Put this in your child theme’s function file –

ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

or use
