I have some forums that guests are not allowed to browse.  How can I SHOW the forum/category title, but not let them in?  Right now it doesn't even show that the category exists.  Thanks.

Thanks. I installed it. How can I set it up so that they can see that select categories exist but not be able to see the individual messages?

That mod will not do what you want, you'll have to give them full access to the categories.  But the text inside the posts will be affected.

I would have pointed you to the View Only Boards mod, if you were using 1.1.x.

Well it will do something, and the fact they are using 2.x they are currently quite limited in choices.
