having a test site like in my last post here 
http://www.oxwall.org/forum/topic/45008

would have problems like this marked and everyone can see lists of problems that have been fixed and ones that have not

thats not the only thing that has been marked as a huge stuffup and to be fixed asap that is still not fixed 

This sounds like the problem I complained about in December.  http://www.oxwall.org/forum/topic/43710

People have been complaining about it since 2013???  I am appalled.  It's a huge gap in privacy for supposed private groups.

I have a private group on my site for women only so women can feel safe talking to each other without the men seeing.  Because of this bug, we have stopped posting in the forum area and are mainly using the Wall.  The only reason I found out about this bug/problem is because I had men on my site messaging me asking to be a part of the group because they wanted to see what the women were saying  (when the whole point was of course to give a safe/private space to the women...)

I guess that "passed it to our devs" answer is meaningless if this has been known about since 2013.

Guys, the issue is reported and it will be fixed asap, I already explained that we have our internal roadmap etc. ect. there's nothing more I can say about it

Internal road map that ignores obvious bugs for 3 years? 

Think you need to rethink your destination if that's the map.. 

Sorry mate, but this is nuts. Private groups aren't private, one of your core features is faulty and has been faulty for 3 years. Aren't you at least a little shocked at that? Don't you want something like that fixed asap.. like, tomorrow?
