Guest permissions & Activation

Sorry for my ignorance...

Question 1:

I am just trying to figure out how to make the topic no-read by Guest. I know there is a permission thing for that, but guest only see the forum and when they are trying to see the topics (Threads) it only say "No message here" So the thing I am trying to do is to show the topics (Threads), but not their content. Understand?

Question 2:
How can I disable the Activation Requirement for new members? So they will not need to go into their e-mail account and active the acouunt from a link. I hate this.

Question 3 * Edited
Where in this forum can I learn to put a catchap feature in the registration form, I was trying to search it, but nothing.

<--- P.S. I like this. Hahahaha... Hope they are not copyrights, I am copying them to my forum.
:wééé: <--- and this, too.

1. its in your permissions of your categories/forums.

2. cannot do, its either you manually activate, or they activate through email.

Ok, look I just tried to go into Categories and Forums, but when I disable the Read the Topics to guest and then I tried to go into the Forum Lets say I have a Driver Support in my forum I want members to see all the thread, but when they try to go into the thread to see the answer they will need to register.

I want this because I need more registrations for that this is the unique form I can get more. Understand my friend?

go to display, categories.forums, click the X check mark box, than click the advanced.

and check view the forum, than uncheck read the topics.

The same thing like as said before...
