Question User can't see forum categories

Using Kunena 1.7 ...

I migrated to J2.5, exported kunena tables from 1.5 and imported them into 2.5. Then I deleted the kunena menu and recreated it using the control panel. As a super user I can see everything perfectly, but when I log in as a user the forum appears as if it were new. I thought maybe it was a permissions problem, but after changing permissions it's still a no go. So, is this a menu problem?

You can see the forum at this address. I currently have access set to public.

You changed permissions? Which permissions did you change? Did you change the default Joomla ACL settings? Maybe that's why your users can't see the categories? :dry:

Oops - I meant I changed the access level. As for permissions, I'm still confused by J2.5 on those.

If you don't understand J! 2.5 ACL settings, don't change them.

For access to Kunena categories, see Sections, Categories, sub-Categories (Part 1) and Sections, Categories, sub-Categories (Part 2) - advanced setup for special groups . Best thing to do, if you don't know what you're doing, is not to change anything.

If you just copy all the tables from Joomla! 1.5, you need to go through all your categories and fix their permissions as ACL has changed in between those two Joomla releases.

Using jUpgrade does the trick for you.
