I'm not quite sure about what's the best way to handle this issue at the level of categories. However, please note that using the latest version of the application you can create new bulletin boards, giving each one its own space. This way protecting Topics and categories becomes much easier since you can use XWiki's built-in rights system more effectively.

To find out how, download the latest XAR (it may cause a few compatibilities issues with the first one though, you may want to keep a backup the first BB XAR...) and go to the [BBCode.Admin] page -> you'll be able to create as many Bulletin Board as you wish, each in its own space :-)

Hi,

the problem you encountered has now been corrected. The Bulletin Board application has also been upgraded, adding some administration features as well as the possibility to quote other messages. Full description here : http://code.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Applications/BulletinBoardApplication

I hope you'll have fun using it :-)

Thank you so much for your work, Guillaume. We have been already enjoying the application.

Just one doubt: it is possible to control the access to the contents of a given category, but the name of the category is still displayed in the "home" Bulletin Board page although no topics are shown.

Is there any way of preventing this category to be listed in the Bulletin Board home page for users that have no access to its content? Thanks!

Cheers,

Ricardo
