Disable forum but visible front page only

[purplegold]

Is there a way to set up that viewers are aloud to see the front page (tiny portal) block articles etc and not have them access to the forum. I notice if i disable under configurtion settings not to have the viewers see the board, it won't show the front page. What do i do?

You need to change the permissions for each and every board..

Admin > Boards > Modify Boards > Allowed Groups.
Un-check Guests.. Save..


Do this for every board.

Just dissable the blocks from the frontpage

Admin/TinyPortal/Settings/Panels Turn of the blocks on frontpage and have them visible in the forum only

Admin/TinyPortal/Settings/frontpage/ Set to show only articles

I followed Zetan's directions and i achieve the goal i was trying to meet however instead of the article showing up it donesn't work. We know that when an access is denied a regestar box pop up instead thats not the case i just have a big blank page with the left block visible. what do i do or should i go back let quests see the board posts?

Okay... My error, apologies.

You need to switch all the guest options back on for each board.

Then goto:

Admin > Configuration/Features and Options > Basic Features > Allow Guests To Browse The Forums [No]


That was my fault, I've never disallowed guests from browsing my forum.

That should work now.
