I want to have catagorys that only i can post in and make them linkable to view all of the disscsions in that catagory but hide it from the view on the catagorys page and hide all of its disscusions from view on the disscions page.

    here's a link to a thread I made about this that contains unfinished extension code to hide certain categories, you can try it out if you want and hopefully it works for you, it doesn't quite work for me but I think it's because i'm using the discussion overview extension instead of having a category tab.

    onetwentyeight: I think that extension makes it so the user themselves can block certain categories, if so I think the original poster wants to be able to block it for all users and not give them an option to unblock certain categories.

    that will do most of it, but how could i change it so the they cannot post in them?

    The Roles&Permissions settings for categories only allow for being able to view a category (and I assume disabling posting as well - ie, you can't just the in the category and post anyway). All we need is another tick list that allows use to just disable posting, but allow the roles to still see it.

    The URLs are dead. Is there anyone who could tell me how to dissable the "all disscusions" category on the forum?
