Does anyone know how I can do this? I tried changing settings in the Usergroup Permissions, but then they cannot view the News threads info on the front CMS page of the site.

Have you tried setting "Forum is Active" to "No" and then making a re-direct to it only visible to staff?
That might work =]

EDIT: It would be easier to see what this hack actually does if the test board were to be in english, Im finding it hard to tell what the things pointing to...
