    Site Support Forum - Hide Posts from others

    Is there a way to create a forum where only the original poster and the moderators/admins can view them? I am wondering if it's possible to create a forum for support where users can post support questions or other issues and an admin can respond and talk with them privately. I have tried all kinds of configurations and can't seem to get it to work properly. Not sure if it's possible??

    I haven't tried this, but off the top, couldn't you create a forum with "Can View Others' Topics" permission turned off for registered users?

      Go to AdminCP > Channel Management > Channel Permissions > [Edit a usergroup permission for a channel] and set Can View Others' Topics to No. This should do the trick.

        This did not work. Posts are still viewable to everyone, even after creating custom permissions. The posts also show up in the "latest post" module.
