Prevent guests from going any further than the homepage

[slip1974]

Is there a plugin or setting that can prevent guests viewing links and posts, but can still access the homepage? Basically, they can see your homepage which gives them an idea about what the discussion board is about, but they cannot access anything else unless logging in or registering. I am aware of the "pester" plugin which keeps on giving a message to register.

Hello!

While my suggestion is not a plug-in, I believe it will work for you.

In the Categories & Boards management area of the Admin area, you can change various settings of each board, making it so that only Members can access and post in the boards.  This would leave Guests able to see the Home Page, and if they click on a board they will be told that they must register in order to access it.

If you are still looking for a plug-in, then wait for someone with more information to respond, I just know it is possible to do what you ask by changing the permissions of boards.

Good luck in finding a solution!

Thanks Night. I'll give that a try.
