I am trying to hide some forums from some users.

This does seem to work, using the “members” plugin and by giving access to private or hidden forums.

However, if I use the shortcodes together with forum categories, only the categories are visible and not the actual forums.

Any ideas how to resolve this would be highly appreciated.

If you are using bbPress 2.x you should simply be able to set that forum to “hidden” in the settings for that particular one.

Thanks jaredatch,

Yep, I’m using the WP 2.x plugin.

It does work as long as you don’t use categories. The shortcodes will only list the categories, but not the actual forums.

I ditched categories for the time being, but it does look like a bug.
