Question about the displaying of boards

[greekdiva]

I dont want people posting as guests on my board, only as registered members. I went to the General settings and clicked yes to "Guests must login". But if I do this, when the guest goes into my forum they cant see the boards or categories. I want to somehow set my board so that guests can see the forum categories but wont be able to post unless they are registered. Here is an example message board that has this function;

longlivelucy.proboards51.com/index.cgi

As you can see they give their guests the option to see the catergories before they register.

Hope this all makes sense. Can anyone help me with this?

Disable the Guests Must Login in your general settings.

To allow guests to see the boards, but to disable posting, go to your administration panel and then to "Modify Board."

Select a board, and at the bottom, you may choose to allow or disallow whoever may view or post in the board. You'd have to do this for every board you have though.
