hello, I want to know if there is any way to link directly to a group.

For example, I have the following structure

GROUP A
         FORUM 1
         FORUM 2
GROUP B
        FORUM 3
        FORUM 4

And I would go directly to the group A.
Is there any way to do this?

It depends what you mean by 'go directly to group A'. If you mean have a link that goes to a page that shows Group A and it's member forums only then you can use the Group Link template tag to do so. See the codex article on this plugin: http://codex.simple-press.com/.....gs-plugin/

If a user clicks on that tag and is only shown Group A they will get the whole listing if they then subsequently use the breadcrumbs etc. The tag is an aid.

if you want to allow different groups of users to only see different groups of forums then you need to set up the user groups and permissions to deal with this.
