Making a Roster

[flyburn11]

So I have made a forum for a clan for a game.

on the navigation bar I created a link called roster and linked a thread with the roster on it. I then found out that only admins could view as I had put it in a board where only admins could see it. I want to be able to have a thread were everyone can see it but it cant be viewed on the main home page so basicly I wont to have the thread only viewable to everyone when the clink the link on the nav bar not on the home page. This may sound confusing but if anyone has any ideas how I could get this to work that would be great. I also tried making a custom page but there is no option to just right out a page like it is a thread. If there is away to make the custom page just like a thread that would be great.

Any ideas?

I think what you're looking for is a hidden board or hidden category.

ellitest.proboards.com/

On my test forum, I've created a hidden category, and a hidden board within it. Then created this thread:

ellitest.proboards.com/thread/25/thread-on-hidden-board

And added it to the navigation ("Thread"). The thread is still accessible, while the board and category are not visible to the user -- but still exist.

To do this, go to Admin > Structure > Categories & Boards, and open the properties for the board you'd like to hide from users. Under the "Settings" tab, and "Hidden" option, select "Yes" and save your changes. The setting is the same for categories.
