Kunena 1.7.2 with Joomla 2.5.1

I must have missed something, but I found myself not able to create a Kunena forum category, which has simple and reasonable requirements:

1) Viewable by guests and all registered users
2) Writable (sure also viewable) by a specific user group only

My best effort is to do the following:
step 1) for primary user group access, picked my user group
step 2) for secondary user group, picked Public AND NO for childgroup

But in this way, I can only achieve:
1) Viewable by guests
2) Viewabel and Writable by a specific user group
For other registered users, they can't even view this category.

Please don't just transfer the topic to other boards, tell me how to do it please, it should be simple right ?!

Prefer not to change any global forum settings.

Thank you very much!

Looking at this thread, seems no way to restrict user group to read-only yet?

Why not? What if we have already discussed this issue before? Wouldn't you like to know? :dry:

If it is doable in current version, would you mind pointing me the link? If not able to, please also point me the discussion thread. Thanks a lot.

I noticed there is a 50 or 100 page thread regarding all sorts of category, user group related questions, are you talking about that, oh no ...

(And then you may move my topic whereever you want :)

... and if it's not "doable" in the current version or if I'm unsure whether there's something that can be done for K 1.7.2 or if you would like to know what plans we have in this area, can we point you to a discussion topic about these issues?

And, yes, the topic [Merged topic] User Groups, User Group Privileges, ACLs does discuss these issues ... in part, anyway. (But you specifically asked me not to mention it!) :(
