Hello Alex,
Pls refer to the following screen shot
https://prnt.sc/gvsgyp
I have linked the forum to the course and only have 2 forums & both linked to the course so when a non logged in user clicks on forum link either on the course page menu or through the direct forum link, it says requested source not accessible.
I had been using Learnpress & in that when a non logged in user clicks on forum on course page or via direct forums link, user can see the forums but cannot access it if it is linked to the course.
https://prnt.sc/gvs0uw
IMHO i prefer the LP way as users come to know the topics count of the forum else the user does not come to know even if the forum exists or not & if it exists then user can't know if its active with topics or not
Appreciate if there is a workaround for this feature
Thanks
