Okay, so I downloaded the zips for the mods and texture packs and followed the installation instructions. It is not allowing me to add those to the minetest folders, they are not able to be edited any anyway. I guess locked is the best way to describe all the minetest folders.

What operating system do you use?
How have you downloaded and installed minetest?
If I understand you lack administrator privileges on the folder minetest?
sorry for bad english
Linux debian 7 wheezy 64

On Ubuntu, in the Home folder press 'ctrl+H'. Go to the .minetest folder. Extract there, and within the respective subfolders. i.e. textures, mods, etc. :3
