Is this possible?

Hi, quick question for the SMF overlords!

Is it possible to make a specific forum visible to guests, but deny them actual access to it? For instance, say I have a 'member only' forum and I want guests to be able to see the forum listed on the main page, but if they attempt to access it, they'll be asked to log in.

Thanks!

Not by default but there is a mod for it:  http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=1332

using the emulation feature you should be able to install it.

Your link isn't working for some reason. Maybe the mod was removed?

[All Colours Sam]

Oh yeah, I forgot about that, yes the mod isn't available at the moment.

[Ashelia]

Ah okay, thanks anyways. I'll keep an eye on it.
