    I have come across the same issue recently. Seems still to be the default. Did you find anything else to resolve this? Otherwise I guess it is a custom code job to get hidden and private group forums to be showing on a users profile.

    Update.
    – The group list private/hidden can now be seen in the edit mode of the topic. Although the group stops access to actually posting the topic onto the group the users doesn’t have access to. So as far as I can tell, although direct url access I haven’t tested, the user cannot read the private forums, topics from a group.

    things that eed to be resolved
    – removing the groups list forums from the edit mode as showing all the private and hidden group on the site isn’t ideal.
    – the user can now see and view any private forums that are in non-group forums.
    – possible direct url access to the group forums.

    Hello,

    I was experiencing the same issue, although this is quite an old topic now, I thought I would add my bit.
    – So site admin gets to see all the topics, and forums from all groups types without issue
    – normal user just see’s the public groups on their profile. – fine for someone that is viewing their profile but not for the user, who would like to see all relevant stuff from the site on one place.
    – I have found adding the capability to read private topics, and hiddden topics to the subscriber role sorts out the problem. Using the “members” plugin to scope the roles out.

    This is after building a clean site and going through all these setups to ensure it was not custom development that has caused any issues.

    – So now I need to now if the user can now see all private forums/topics from all hidden groups / private groups at any point. This would obviously be a major problem for users with private content.

    I will look into this further, but it is frustrating that these points are not covered in bbpress setup as a few lines of information on this would have cleared up this issue straight away. I do value the fact everyone is doing this in their spare time though.

    ohh, it might have just twigged, that this is all that is needed as a wrapper.

    seems like it could be a bigger job than I thought
