Private Forum Plugin for NodeBB
This module allows to lock the forum to anyone that did not have an account.
Be aware:
- No pages will be publicly accessible
- Web crawlers and bots (like google) will not be able to index the forum (except the login and register page)
- If you are using the plugin
nodebb-plugin-custom-homepageand have created a custom welcome page on/, this page will be visible after a user registered itself, even if an administrator did not approve him
Bug or feature request
Please open an issue or a pull request if needed.
Old Roadmap ideas
- Implement an admin view to add and remove exception pages
