I SOLVED IT!!

At least I got it worked out as far as the style settings. The same should hold true for your problem as well. Okay...

Step 1. Changing the cp.cgi so that moderators are allowed into certain sections. This is actually VERY easy. For your problem it looks like you need to find the line that says
Code
code:

You want to change it so that it looks like this.
Code
code:
Note the removal of one of the "(" near the begining of the line. That threw me for a sec. I think that's the line you need to change but you might also have to change the one after that that says 'update_q' in it, the same way. That should do it for that step.

Step 2. Making the control panel show correctly to your mods so they can get to that section easily. (I feel like an idiot once I realized how simple this was.) If you look at the cp_common.pl file you'll find this.
Code
code:

What you want to do is COPY and paste that line of code DIRECTLY ABOVE these lines.
Code
code:
Now ABOVE the line you pasted you have to put the following code. (Unless it's already there which it was in my case since the menu I was modifying already had a section that moderators could get into. The members menu doesn't so you have to add it.)
Code
code:

The way the code should now look when you're done is this.

Code
code:

So there you have it! (I may have missed a "}" at some point in my explanation but the final code should be correct.) I gave you an explanation rather than just the code in case you want to give them access to other areas.

Happy Coding!!!!
