We will simplify this configuration soon. But while you wait, let me explain the solution at this point. Each sub-forum has its own list of members. So the sub-forum for administrators should be set to "only members can view" and then you should add "administrators" to the list of members. Basically, when someone tries to open that sub-forum, the system will check if that person is in the current list of members (the list of the sub-forum, not the parent one) and decide whether he/she can proceed or not.

Soon the permission system will be standard: we will have users and groups. Users can be added to groups and the administrators can decide what each group can do.
