Private Discussion Forum

slickforum · January 2015

I'd like to make a private discussion board with Vanilla with these features;

Only available to registered guests
Mods need to approve new members
Content must not be indexed by Google and other search engines
Weekly/Daily email digest of new threads and posts
Reply to posts via email
No View Count
Date only shows if you visit a Thread
Shopping cart functionality

The idea here is I'm trying to move a YahooGroup.

What add-ons would I need or how would I do this?

Basically, you want this config option:

$Configuration['Garden']['PrivateCommunity']=TRUE;

And check out these plugins:

Thanks, what about removing the view count and date?

Add this css to themes/yourtheme/design/custom.css

 .DataList .Meta span.DiscussionCount{display:none}
 .DataList .Meta span.CommentCount{display:none}
 .DataList .Meta span.LastCommentDate{display:none}

Thanks @Anonymoose‌. Do you add that code on lines 1,2 and 3?

I would put that right at the end of your custom.css file along with a quote above it /* These are used to remove the discussion counts */.
