What do the folks at Joomlapolis have to say about this?

Using Community Builder (free) and CBSubs (commercial), you can restrict access to any CMS extension (component or module) based on CBSubs plan membership. For example, you can have a CBSubs subscription plan called Forum Plan that allows access to specific forum areas (even if the forum component does not do this on its own). As CBSubs manages multiple memberships and plans, you can precisely control access depending on e.g. URL or POST parameters, in the CBSubs Content Integration plugin. A corresponding use-case example exists in the CBSubs manual.

I'd like to know if there is a way to do this same thing with the AEC component.

I run a website for a group, which also doubles as a general guide. I'd like to make a certain category only available to certain people, but I don't want to give all of them a high-level front end permission. Is it possible to restrict acces to only certain forum groups? (Like moderator, admin, and any other groups I define?)

Hello,

With Joomla! 1.6 will be easy to do that, but with joomla! 1.5 you need to use specific components for that.

How can we provide rights to kunena user,to create subforums inside his/her forum ,Without login to joomla backend ?

Hello,

It's not possible to do this wihout logging to Kunena backend. You can set to this user limited right or just wait Joomla! 1.6 with the ACL system.

Actually I'm planning to use J1.6 alike ACL system, which fits better to our uses and allows users to do just that in J1.5, too. And I would like to get that into K1.7

Why do I set up since the version 1.5.12 in public access is no longer only forum managers or administrators?

The language in those options is not the best possible. Here is the explanation:

Public access = users, who have only frontend access
Backend access = users, who have also backend access

So basicly purpose of these two settings is to say that user must be Publisher OR Administrator to have access on this forum. It means that authors, editors and managers do not have access to the category. Super admin has no meaning as it administrator has automatic global moderator rights.

Previously Kunena acted like this only when you were using English -- translations broke the feature.

You can also say Nobody in public access (1.5.12+), which means that you need to have backend access to see the forum.
