I hope that what I’m asking makes sense… Is it possible to lock a category from being able to see the threads, but yet still show that it (the category) exists? Basically, we have a category that will be fairly popular, but I want new people to have incentive to actually sign-up or get to level 1, …

Perhaps this is the purpose of a group?

There is a “require login” setting if you want to be strict about requiring members to register. But the only thing that will show is a “you need to login page” with no indication of what the forum is about. The closest thing that I can think of to a “let them see but don’t let them see” tease is …

How about you pin a global topic that brags about your awesome hidden category? Or key them read but not respond?

I admit I don’t understand why some would want to have teasers. Most want search engines to be able to find content. (Note - Google doesn’t log in) Anyway, in terms of permissions there are these in Discourse: Forum login required - if a visitor is not logged in (which requires being Registered),…

You could put the topics in a private sub-category that has a public parent category.

The parent category shows for all users, the restricted category and topics only show for members of the groups that have access to them. Everything seems to work exactly like you would expect it to, but I only tried this as far as creating a couple of restricted sub-categories and topics.

Sub-categories… I didn’t think of that! I could create a parent category and pin a thread explaining that a ‘sub-category’ will show up when they become members or become trust level 1, etc. Good idea!! Thanks!!

Make a "locked" category visible (on the list of choices) to non-members?
