Default Very Odd Problem!

I have my forum set up with a Bosses Area. Only admins are allowed in. All of a sudden I see 7 viewers. I go in and it says under currently active users 7 regular users. I checked my settings and there all good. I clicked on each user and find out it shows up when they are using search! Anyone have an idea how to fix? Thanks

should be an option in forum options somewhere....find that forum and select "users can search this forum" or something like that

If the users can't view the forum then they can't search the forum so that shouldn't be happening, i suggest you contact vb support..

None of the people that are there can see the forum. I just did a test account and went to search. When I open my admin account I see my test account in bosses viewing but I dont see bosses. Im beggining to think this is from the Thank You hack.

It shouldn't be. You must have the permissions set wrongly.

Nope. Made a new bosses room, triple checked and ran test account doing search and it shows. So now I have 3 forums that only staff only. I set staff room as last room on board, Ran my test account in search and sure enough it shows. So this is very odd. Very Last room on board will show user's searching in the currently active users box. Once I moved bosses it no longer shows. Never seen this before. Again, It only shows people who are using search. They arent in room, nor can they see that theres even a bosses forum.

ok what I did just cause it bugs me is make a forum called Search Hiding Thingy thats empty and set to hidden. Made it the last forum on board and now Bosses doesnt show searchers, lol. Been using vb since vb2 and never seen this.

in WOL you can see them "trying" to view, but they'll see a warning message that says they don't have permission to view ;)

that is, if u have your forum and usergroups setup correctly..

well they werent trying to view, all they are doing is using search and there names show up in Currently Active Users in boss room. Using a test account using active member status my test account shows there but I cant see boss room. Any forum I send to bottom it does this to. I made an invisable forum and stuck it at bottom and now doesnt show up users searching. I believe it's from the Thanks Hack.

Tell the author in his/her thread and then uninstall it for now. Or disable it.
