Here it is - finally! - the private settings you requested for Hoosiermamas.net!
As of now, all boards except for the Site Information board are accessible to registered members ONLY. This means that you will need to be logged into your account in order to view posts on any of the other boards. This one will remain open to guests so that prospective members can see the rules and ask questions, or registered members who might be having login problems can post to ask for help.
I have tested this on search engines, and while threads may pop up in search results, they cannot be viewed when you click them (it prompts for you to sign in).
Please be aware that while this gives us a certain degree of privacy, it is still possible for ANYONE to sign up with an account and view posts. So the standard guidelines for internet safety still apply. Be extremely careful when posting any private information about yourself or your kids. At least it's not open to the general public, though, so that helps!
Let me know if you have any questions!
