Hi,

Thanks

You can restrict a forum to a group. This is done when creating the forum - you can also edit it to change.

If you already have the groups you want, then fine. Otherwise, make the new ones that you need. Now, go to the forum admin page and go to the forum admin tab. Edit the forum you want to restrict access to, and select the appropriate group from the drop down menu.
