I just noticed something that annoys me. I was logged in with a test account (non-admin, just forum participant) and the last screen that I had open when I logged out, was another participant’s profile page. Instead of the expected ‘you are not allowed’ page, I could still see the profile page and when I clicked on the ‘replies created’ link, I could also still see this user’s posts, all of which are posted in private fora! When I click on a subject from that archive page, I do get a 404, but I could read all this user’s posts from his profile.

A bit worried I checked if Google can also find these profile pages and indeed…

Is this due to a setting that I missed or could we get something like private users such as we have private fora?

WP 3.5.1 BBpress 2.2.4 monas.nl (check user roy3)

Just threw the whole forum behind a brick wall, so there is nothing there to see anymore, but if anyone knows what I mean and has an idea about it…

There were a few issues related to this that are fixed for bbPress 2.3. You may want to look into the release candidate, and see if it’s fixed these issues for you.

Ehm, how do I download 2.3? I seem to only get it file by file.
What are the changes by the way? Private profile pages or do these remain public, but is the posts archive related to public or private fora?

I got this problem as well, but I move my reply to https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2327

This issue is not resolved on my installation for some reason. I notified trac here: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2327#comment:11
