Hello All, I have my forum setup for registered users only. Only registered and logged in users can read the forums. I just discovered that the "Latest Posts section on bottom of home page is accessible by anyone. Did I miss something in setup to secure this and/or can I remove this section from home page? I enclosed a screen grab below. You will note the Forums with red X are secured, but you can click any post in the "Latest Forum Posts" and they will open.

The latest posts section will only show posts in forums that you have permission to view.

I notice from the forums listed in the latest post section are for 'Photo Gallery' which is an open forum in the image and the rest are sub forums.

Sub forums do not inherit permissions from the parent forums as they have their own permissions.

Check in your forum admin area that these sub forums have the correct permissions set as if they are in the latest posts section and you can view them it is likely that you have not disable Guest permissions on these sub forums.
