"There are no posts in this forum" instead of "you must register to view"

[netsultants]

I thought I'd post this question over here and see if any of you deal with the same issue:

----------------------------------

I want unregistered users to be able to view most threads and posts.

In a few forums I want to block their ability to read the posts, though they can still see the forum.

I set this up at the individual forum level and blocked their viewing. It worked correctly.

The issue I have, is when they click on the forum it doesn't say "you must register to view".... it says "There are no posts in this forum". So it doesn't motivate the unregistered viewer to register. Which is what I'm trying to do. I want, when an unregistered user views a thread that has "non viewable" content for them to see a message that they must register to see it......

This I hope will incentivise an unregistered user to register.

Do you understand what I'm saying?

On your boards, do you have a similar issue with this?

Ok,

I knew I had something wrong - I had setup "can view Others' threads to "no" and that caused the "There are no posts in this forum"

This is how the permissions should be to get "register"


Can View Forum Yes

Can View Thread Content No

Can View Others' Threads Yes
