What do you suggest should be done?

a) We may mark it as abandoned until someone from the group volunteers to manage.


b) We can simply lock and archive the forum.


c) Open to suggestions …



I'm with (a). And remove the creator from the forum. It makes no sense to have them around if they leave like that.

Are we allowed to create a private forum if public forum related to that topic is already locked?

If you could be more specific it will be helpful as sometimes in specific cases we can.


Show Forums are generally locked cause the show went off air, less activity, and also lack of moderators for inactive forums.

Say, a show has gone off air and its forum has been locked for sometime due to inactivity. But later, a handful of members want to discuss about the show. Then will a private forum be allowed for that purpose, or will the existing public forum be reopened?

Private forum can be opened for such cases.

In future we notice there is good number of members still interested in discussing the show and upon request from creator we can merge it with the Public forums and open the same and may invite the creator in our DT team also.

Do let us know if you guys are enjoying the Private Forums feature? And what changes you would like to see.


First suggested by BilliCat, we will also be adding a Newsletter / Mailer feature that the Creator / Manager can send to their forum members for special announcements or invites.


Members can unsubscribe to these mailers if they dont want to receive them.


If you have any suggestion please feel free to post.

I am enjoying private forums feature. Is it possible for a creator to see who visited his/her private forum?

I am really enjoying this new private forums feature of IF where we can create a new room/space based on our similar interests and interact more with like-minded people. This is a superhit already 🥳👏


One thing I heard & noticed today that if we invite users to join forum by going to manage members list, they don't get notifications and won't see it unless they visit private forums. I think a red notification must be sent to the members if we invite them to join.

I could not invite 3 people to my private forum. When I wrote their names a message, 'no results found' was shown. Can this issue be resolved?
