Krileon, what I keep trying to explain, is it's not just in "Recent Topics" it's also merging Group forums in the Main Fourm (Index) page as well. It looks like you clicked on the wrong forum menu item on my site. I have a main "Forum" menu item and another menu item for "recent topics", you must of selected recent topics, as the "Forum" menu item takes you the main forum's index page, and group posts are clearly being shown on both the "Recent Topics" and the Main Forum "index" page. If you go there, you'll see that groups forums are being added to the main forum and worse yet anyone can reply to them, without being a member of the group.

and worse yet anyone can reply to them, without being a member of the group.

Before installing Groupjive, I didn't have any problems with Kunena. Also, Kunena is a free software, marketed as a forum only, whereas Community Software is a purchased software marketed to add Groups functionality to the Kunena forum, so this functionality issue isn't something they feel responsbile for. From Kunena's standpoint it's your responsibility to provide and make this functionality work, not theirs.

If my installation is wrong, or if this is a glitch that will be fixed with the next update, I will wait, but this is something I really need to work on my site and was the reason why I purchased Community Builder.

However, the only issue I'm still having (other then group posts showing in Recent Topics, which I understand will be fixed with new upcoming release) is "any" registered user for my Joomla site and/or my main/master forum can still post in any individual Groups without even joining and/or being approved for any of these individual groups. Invite Users has a "Group Users" premission setting, but I didn't see this option for either "View" or "Posting" in the group permission settings at all. Actually, I didn't see any permissions setting at all for Posting or Reply permissions. It would be very helpful if I could let the public view posts only and let Search Engines crawl them, but only those that have actually joined the actual group can post in them via a Group Users permission here.

The creation of groups option keeps Reverting back to Disable for some reason on the back end.

When a new user requests to join a group, the group request confirmation E-mail doesn’t work, isn't sent (so how does the group manager/creater know there are pending member requests?)

When a user creates a new group, it doesn’t create a forum and there isn't any option to add a forum from the front end.
