It does.
Only you can see that as a group owner.

Is there a way to make a private thread within a group?
Eg only a subset of group members can see, view and edit certain threads?

 

[Dave]

I'm afriad not @Barkmi4 (Mike) . I've had to deactivate the Private Thread option as although it was created by the same company that made the Social Groups - There are potential conflicts between the two. They were not designed to intergrate with each other and could cause potential issues down the line.

No worries!
Is a bit of a learning curve coming from the previous Private Threads, but once you've quickly got your head around it hopefully will make things a lot easier for the group owner and his/her members

It’s really a pity. That would’ve been a wonderful tool.

I agree, but it's not worth the risk if the developer does not recommend it.

Does a hidden group says:

Yes. It means it’s hidden from you! You haven’t been invited to join the group.

Does a hidden group says:

You have to contact the person who create the chat you want to invite you.
Other reason maybe you banned from joining the chat i check the list but your name not there.
Will contact @Dave
