Question Who's online shows hidden forums/topics

Kunena is not actually capable of hiding forums/topics. So how are you going about this? If you're using Joomla's access levels to achieve this you're fining out now that they don't really work.

Access levels do not work to allow certain members access to certain forums?

It works fine @ my forum.

Admins browsing hidden forums are shown in the who's online list with which admin topic they're reading. Anonymous / normal users are denied access when clicking on the topic title, but it's still a security issues since a topic title can reveal more information then wanted.

I installed kunena yesterday and within 24 hours we discovered the same problem. However, registered users were able to access the private and even had read/write authority. NOT GOOD!

We did the same by disabling the feature so it's not active at all, but our mods and admin miss not having the feature.

Any idea how difficult this might be to resolve and a possible timeline as to when it might be fixed?

Currently it's not easy to fix, but for Kunena 1.5 it should be a lot of easier after we have moved most of the functionality out of templates.

ok, thanks for responding.
