Anybody know how to do that? :)

You can implement an ActionFilter, where you fire the ActionFilter before the execution of specific Action in BoardsController. I've explained ActionFilter several times in the forum, you can search for it. :)

I don't think you even need to touch database in your case. You just need to store settings of which board is available to each role, and on your ActionFilter, check the settings for appropriate actions. :D

Thank you once again for your help. I am implementing that on a site that I will be changing to nopC soon. The forum was a big concern of mine. The forum is going to be a large part of the site and I want to have levels of security.
1; Open forum for registered users.
2; Paying customers to use the forum.
3; Customers that get free usage because they have hired us for our other services.

I simply restricted the forum access to myaccountnavigation.cshtml with a redirect on the forum url so only registered and logged in customers can acces it.
You could create a category with ACL with apprpoiate links if you are using nopCommerce 2.80.

Thank you for the response. I am running 2.8, and am looking at the ACL list and there is not an option to create one. What do you mean, create a category with ACL?
I will explore moving the forum to myaccountnavication.cshtml...not sure how to move the entire forum to one cshtml page? Thanks again for your response, and maybe a little clarification would help. Thanks!
