It could be great having option for making for each user specific access to forum categories,
then i could make for each customer his own customer support where they can ask and open issue "ticket"
To see this working, head to your live site.

Without the ability to give permission to specific users for specific categories this forum is useless for us.
I can't believe this request has been open for 2 years and still no resolution!
You have an add-on that will list the last 30 posts for a given category on a specific page - I can restrict access to that page to specific users. But once a user opens a post from that addon page, or creates a post, or comments on an existing post, they are navigated back to the Forum pages and I've lost my control.
Is there any work-a-round for this request?
Please let us know if you are working on this and if there is any hope for this feature being supported in the near future.
This option is really really needed. I searched for hours and no, we still can not give permissions according to categories. And since we still can not implement 2 forums, it's very annoying.
2Years any hope?
Even if this option were to be developed, any Site User can click on a different User's profile > Comments in Forum, or Posts in Forum and see list of that User's comments\posts in any category. The title and first paragraph and first image in any post\comment will be visible to any user, whether he has access to that category or not, and even whether he has access to the forum or not.
A possible solution would be to hide these two pages, Comments and Posts, from the Member pages. but that means that all users will not be able to browse other user's comments.
Yes, this is a necessity!
Agree! With that option already at hand it makes only sense to expand that functions also to the forum. Can‘t understand why this step didn‘t already happen since the base is already there...
Sure especially because Wix propose to set-up different groups of member with restricted access to pages. I need to use these access control on my forum too!
I really need this option. I want to have a category that can be viewed by selected members only. I have staff on my forum and we need a place to talk about forum issues which are not seen by other members. All other forums have this option. I was with forumotion, and we were able to add a group of members who were the only ones able to access a certain category.
Yes, for me too ! I need to have this feature for my website! please
Agree!
Yes I also would love this option. I want my clients who purchase the xyz to have access to the xyz forum category only so that they can get additional resources, ask questions and see special content.
Hi, this is a great suggestion, and we want to support more categories permissions, stay tuned :)
