In the FORUMHOME template, replace:
HTML Code:
<div class="navlinks">
<a href="forumdisplay.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=markread&markreadhash={vb:raw bbuserinfo.securitytoken}" rel="nofollow">{vb:rawphrase mark_forums_read}</a>
<vb:if condition="$vboptions['forumleaders']">|
<a href="showgroups.php{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}" rel="nofollow">
<vb:if condition="$vb_suite_installed">
{vb:rawphrase view_site_leaders}
<vb:else />
{vb:rawphrase view_forum_leaders}
</vb:if>
</a></vb:if>
</div>
With:
HTML Code:
<div class="navlinks">
<a href="forumdisplay.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=markread&markreadhash={vb:raw bbuserinfo.securitytoken}" rel="nofollow">{vb:rawphrase mark_forums_read}</a>
<vb:if condition="can_moderate()">
<vb:if condition="$vboptions['forumleaders']">|
<a href="showgroups.php{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}" rel="nofollow">
<vb:if condition="$vb_suite_installed">
{vb:rawphrase view_site_leaders}
<vb:else />
{vb:rawphrase view_forum_leaders}
</vb:if>
</a></vb:if>
</vb:if>
</div>
This makes it so that users that can moderate can see the link on the forum home page, while other users cannot.
Or, if you only want Super Moderators or Admins to view it, replace it with:
HTML Code:
<div class="navlinks">
<a href="forumdisplay.php?{vb:raw session.sessionurl}do=markread&markreadhash={vb:raw bbuserinfo.securitytoken}" rel="nofollow">{vb:rawphrase mark_forums_read}</a>
<vb:if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, 5,6)">
<vb:if condition="$vboptions['forumleaders']">|
<a href="showgroups.php{vb:raw session.sessionurl_q}" rel="nofollow">
<vb:if condition="$vb_suite_installed">
{vb:rawphrase view_site_leaders}
<vb:else />
{vb:rawphrase view_forum_leaders}
</vb:if>
</a></vb:if>
</vb:if>
</div>
