Man, this is the best mod I've seen in a long time. Really helps the useability of my forum.

I've had a little blurb about "posting a new thread" in my sidebar that was previously linked to a FAQ that explained to newbies how to post a thread. They would click on it and not understand how to post a thread because they would skip over the text in the faq.

Just installed this and linked that same text to newthread.php and it's perfect!

Love it, thank you!

I would be interested in this option also, my newthread.php does not appear to be following permissions, but even lists my otherwise hidden Mods-Only Forums and closed forums, etc.

Other than that, perfect, and I've nominated for MOTM! Thanks again!

It works fine for me. Try logging in as a regular user and viewing newthread.php. If you're logged in as an admin, you'll be able to see the moderator only forums.

Nice
*intalled*

OK, I take it back, the Mods Only forums are not showing now, but it does list all the archives and forums where posting is not allowed, and when you select a closed forum, no error is given, then the page just hangs when a post is submitted.
I just wish I could create a list of specific forums to show there, and exclude others, is all.... thanks again.

I'll look into this.

How about if I add a way to simply exclude specific forums from being shown?

Great Mod, installed.

I think only logged in users should see this button, currently it shows for everyone, or did I miss something?

very nice n helpfull.but its showing the hidden forums in the list as well.any idea how to hide them,thnx

This is by design. The visible button convinces an unregistered user that it's easy to ask a question, so he/she decides to ask a question and clicks the button and then gets the login/registration page where they register for your forums. I think that's what we all want.

It works fine for me. I can see my hidden forums when I'm logged in as an admin, and if I log out or log in as a user from another usergroup, I see the appropriate forums for their usergroup.
