Hello,
Is it possible to create passwords for a certain child board, so
that only the people knowing the password can access the child
board/board ? If so, [glow=red,2,300]How ?[/glow]
Thanks in advance...

This could be done by code, however, if one were to pit that
code onto their forum, anyone could find the password by looking
at your page source. It would be much safer to put these members
into a separate membergroup and give only that membergroup
access to the board.

Actually, if you were to host the code somewhere, then it'll be
harder to find the password since you're telling your forum to
just load a certain page with the code on it.
