I implemented something similar on my fork https://github.com/alesdotio/Spirit/tree/master/spirit/group It's just an admin for django's Group model, which you can assign to categories https://github.com/alesdotio/Spirit/blob/master/spirit/category/models.py#L31 which will in turn make them hidden/readonly/etc....

I started working on these changes [on my fork](https://github.com/alesdotio/Spirit/commit/09eb7e995df69ff73ff8905096d55f1e0f6227ea)

I think the current implementation is fine. The only thing I changed on my forum is I separated topic notifications and private message notifications.

It's quite common to show when the last post was and who made it. It makes it easier to scan through unread topics. Feel free to close it if you...

People asked for it, the rest is just my assumptions ;)

Will deleted comments not count towards the comment count any more? If so, could we also add an option to not show them in the topic at all?

That'w what I do but then the count and pagination is off.

Yeah, it works ok-ish with just hiding them. Anyway, any chance of fixing the count issue?

Ok, I haven't tried to use the tools to edit the js in Spirit. However, it's still strange to see these files being served: [http://community.spirit-project.com/static/spirit/stylesheets/mockups/login.html](http://community.spirit-project.com/static/spirit/stylesheets/mockups/login.html) And ``collectstatic`` takes a lot...

Couldn't you write a rule in urls.py that serves those files from a different folder only when in debug?
