I set up a board under a category that I want only users that I approve to have access. How would I go about this? I can't seem to be able to find a way to give certain users access to the restricted board. Thanks.

Create a membergroup, allow access to that membergroup (and only that membergroup), add said group as an additional group to those users.

I created the member group and selected group type "Private" then how do I allow access? Go to members? Go to boards? Where do I give a member access to the new member group. Sorry to be so dense.

You set access for that group in the board's configuration.

Then you set access for a member by going into their profile > account settings and adding your new group to their account as an additional group.
