Hello again,

I have two new problems:

1.) I have a restricted forum set as

Public Access Level: Publisher
Admin Access Level: Administrator
Moderated: YES

It was like this in the old FB 1.05 RC2 and worked all fine. Today (and after I updated to meanwhile 1.5.11) I saw, that a few forum-members are "viewing" that restricted forum, although they don't have the rights.

The viewing user:
Rank Title: No Rank Assigned
Is Moderator: NO
In CB 1.22: Registered

I made a test-user and he can't see the forum 100%, but when I log in back with the admin, he is listed as "viewing" the restricted" forum.

2.) See screenshot, how can I get rid of those "empty" entries? I already tried to synchronize users with marked checkboxes.

J1.5.15 and K1.5x do not yet support ACLs ( access control lists ) and that is what you are going to need for what you are trying to do but in J1.6 and K2.0 ( long way off) ACLs will be added so that restrictions can be better added to who can see and access each catagory of the forum.

Your Q1: This probably isn't a real problem at all; it just looks that way. There is a known issue with K 1.5 where the "who is viewing this post" information at the top of the screen is corrupted. I get this a lot - here at www.kunena.com - when I'm viewing some of the restricted forums and I see another user's name that I wouldn't expect to find. I'll bet that this information is actually a software illusion.

The chances are that, if you asked these "ordinary" users why they were viewing something they had no right to view, they'd give you a blank stare and ask "what are you talking about?"

Your Q2: I remember a discussion about this that happened a long time ago (maybe a year or more). I'll try to find what was said before.
