Is there any self-hosted private community software?

• Discourse

  198 40,422 10.0 Ruby

  A platform for community discussion. Free, open, simple.

  

Discourse is a Great fit for communities of all size (www.discourse.org) I personally use Discourse self hosted for friends & family which has no public access, only available on our local network and through VPN.

• decidim

Maybe decidim? https://decidim.org/

• WorkOS

• phpBB

  phpBB Development: phpBB is a popular open-source bulletin board written in PHP. This repository also contains the history of version 2.

  

The classic https://www.phpbb.com/ forum software has this functionality, including hidden forums that only certain user groups had visibility to.

• Flarum

  59 14,884 2.8 PHP

  Simple forum software for building great communities.

  

My favourite forum software is https://flarum.org/ and IIRC it can be made private.
