phpBB guests unable to view forums without logging in Anonymous account solution
This is still a weird quirk about phpBB, you can allow everyone+guests to see a forum.
What also controls the first layer is this weird built-in "Anonymous" account. You have to actually give that account specific rights to view all the forums or otherwise the above will happen and you'll wonder why your group permissions don't seem to apply.
