I have set a forum to members only. The issue is I'm getting trolls to my forum which is hindering growth.
I have set promotions and two usergroups so so that new members will not access this forum n members reaching 100 posts will access the forum.
When i test this with a test account i cannot see the forums rum which is what i wish. I also cannot access the private forum when log out as I wish.
However these trolls are somehow accessing this private forum because when i look at guests viewing - it shows this private forum. They also send posts proving that they can see it
my forum is https://www.aceeveyisms.com/forums
i really would like help with this because I am trying to grow this forum but these trolls are making things difficult.
