How do I make it so that guests can open up a forum and see the threads, but not open the threads themselves? If I set their permissions to not be able to view, it just ends up hiding the entire thing.

Will this work for other user groups as well? I want to make it so that this is in effect for Awaiting Activation members as well.
I use this plug-in which allows only a certain amount of views before you need to register. I found this to be very effective for my forum. You can set the amount of views before unregistered users are informed of the register requirement tool.

on MybbCentral You will have to search on their site...
but that is a paid plugin..

There is a tutorial to allow guests to see the topics and not access posts, for instance:
forum> topic ( Sandy makes a flag ) they can read the title but when trying to access the post they are directed to sign up.

I used that with great success before and it is a very easy edit. Good Luck!
Does this work with Awaiting Activation members as well?
