On a side note, I’m happy to pay you for your time if you want to help me figure out a way to do this.
Chris, yes, that is absolutely right.
Chris, no, I want them to see particular forums on the “front page” but when they click the forum link they can’t see any of the posts. Other forums like phpbb3, etc have this. Part of my forum is going to be open to the public, while another part is going to be paid support. I want people to see how many people are using the paid support but not be able to access that part of the forum behind the front page.
Make sense?
What template file actually has the link where the text Add New can be modified?
