Did I get you right: You need a Mod forum and you want ALL your users see the forum itself but not the messages in it. So forum is visible but messages are invisible to everybody but mods.

i cannot have my members seeing title threads in the mod forum, wont this allow that? i want them to get this message when they click on the mod forum

You do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:
You do not have permission to access the page that you were trying to. Are you trying to edit someone else's post or trying to access administrative features? Check that you are allowed to perform this action in the Forum Rules.
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.
Logged in user: mddtesting [logout]


and the admin forum will be visible to ONLY admins, not everyone but admins


ig uess i will try one more time and follow your directions verbatum
