How do I make my Category 'Paradise Home' or all the boards in that category that only Mod+ can post in them?

Kill Em All

When you create the boards, just make sure that all the membergroups are unticked, while mod+ or higher are ticked. Then select modify.

If all boards are hidden by users below in a certain category, it will automatically hide the category.

That only makes them unable to see the board, i want them to see it but not be able to post in it.

Kill Em All

Oh, ok, then let everyone have access to it, then under Admin>Boards

You would select permissions for the specific board, then for each membergroup lower than moderators, click modify and select the options from there, then select save changes.

When I press Post replies to topics, it applies to all the boards, not just 1.

Kill Em All

You are going to:
Admin>Forum>Boards>Find your Board>permissions>Find the membergroup>Modify

It should only be applying it to the board you selected.
