Description:
The forum security features (restricting what posts users have access to, including what non-logged in users can see) do not prevent users (and guests) from using the Forum RSS feed to get titles to all posts. This can be somewhat problematic if you tend to use descriptive titles.
Of course, the posts themselves are still restricted - clicking on the link will only take you to the forum, not the post.

The fix for this has been deployed, along with a couple simple aesthetic changes (like showing Thread Tag for posts).

Thanks for the fix!
Of course, now it appears that even if you are logged in, you only get the guest viewable posts in the rss feed (I know, no satisfying some people
).

For that, make sure you use the "Private RSS Feed"
(link found in the logged in box)
The public RSS feed should ALWAYS be just the publicly available stuff, while the private RSS feed is specific to you.
