Forgive me if my understanding of this is wrong, but... Since you are trying to hide names, does it matter that the front page of this forum has all the names listed under members? And also, at the bottom of the same page all new posts are listed with the corresponding poster. Does this pose a threat too?
Hi Bubz,
The bots are scraping the names out of the posts in the topics accoording to the programmers of this forumsoftware, so there is the need the greatest.
The modification did hide a lot for guests. As you can see, no guest can access the memberlist.
The only place a guest can read names is in the infocentre where the newest posts are displayed.
Maybe the programmers will adjust that to soon.
Please logout and look as guest.
If you see anything that doesnt look as i descriped, then please let me know...
There is an option to hide the whole forum for guests and you must login first to see the topics.
This forum must be an open forum and not a closed one. But if you have another opinion, just let me know.
