Question new forum not visible only when access is set to "everybody"

hello all,
my problem is that:
i updated joomla from 1.5.10 to 1.5.14 --> no problems occured
then i updated cb to the latest version --> no problems occured
at least i updated to the latest kunena version
i did all migration settings. installed the dark army template...
everything worked fine as far as i could see.
but then i wanted to make new forum set public access level to editor
and admin access level to administrator.
i was logged in as superadministrator and couldn't see the forum.
all old forums i can see but no new ones if public access level
is not set to "everybody"!??
i hope someone can help me

thx in adv

"Backend/ Kunena Forum Administration > Edit Category / Forum"

Hi terzo,

for all old forums (before update) i didnt set "include childgroups"

management is better now.

Quote from (backend) Forum Administration:

If you create a forum with Public Access restrictions, you can specify here an additional Administration Access Level.
If you restrict the access to the Forum to a special Public Frontend user group and don't specify a Public Backend Group here, administrators will not be able to enter/view the forum.

You can also to configure this (see image).
Then admin cannot see this forum.

Actually admin should see all the published forums, but by fixing ACL we seem to have hit another bug (which wasn't shown because of the slightly broken ACL).

I've done the same in my own forum. :blush:
