Takeforum Forums With Public & Private Forums

To ease access between the two forums, I suggest using the Weblinks sidebar widget (Forum Admin > Appearance > Sidebar - add widget - Weblinks) to put a link to the other forum in each forum's sidebar. Or if you have an acquaintance with HTML, you could put in a linked image using the Custom HTML sidebar widget.

If you need help with any of this, please ask.
