Hello,

We have some categories that are viewable only to specific usergroups by setting its privacy to "Assigned Joomla User Group".

The problem is…
when viewing a post entry (which is viewable to public), the title of the posts in hidden category appears in next/previous post section. (screenshot attached.)

So when public users click on that tile, they will see the error message "400 You are not authorized to view this blog entry."


I hope users will not see the post titles anywhere if they don't have permission to view the posts.
Is it possible?

Thanks,
Rikao
Hello Hideto,

I have just tried this and it seems to be working fine for me, http://take.ms/wkB8O . This is what I have done,

1. Created a post (post #1) in a category that is accessible by everyone.

2. Created a post (post #2) in a category that can only be accessed by super admins

3. Created another (post #3) post in a category that is accessible by everyone

When viewing the post #3 (public category), the navigation shows the post #1 (public category) as a guest.
