    Just wondering on the ‘search’ function. I’ve created a ‘hidden’ forum only for selected users. This forum is not visible to non-logged in users, but when they search for keyword on the hidden forum, it still display the topic in the hidden forum. It shouldn’t display anything on the ‘hidden’ forum or topic right? Have I missed something? Thanks.

    Oops it seems the ‘search’ feature can find anything by anyone (logged-in or out visitors), it even finds topics/replies on PRIVATE/HIDDEN forum!

    Also, the tags widget on private and hidden forum also direct to the private/hidden topics/replies too ๐Ÿ™

    How to make private/hidden forum/topic/reply – private? and can’t be searched/found by any visitor? Thanks.

    I cannot reproduce this, any topics in hidden or private forums are not shown in the search results.

    Same, I cannot reproduce this, any topics in hidden or private forums are not shown in the search results.

    What ‘tags widget’ are you using? bbPress does not include a tags widget.

    Oh, what did I do? what did I do? it seems fine now, search can’t find the hidden/private topic now. Still can’t believe what happened especially on the ‘private’ topic, I tested and tested it showed to anyone searching for it. But now it’s ok.

    Stephen, thank you so very much for the great support. You must have helped me to changed something by accident to make it work now. Thank you thank you!
