After update, registered users can no longer make new topics was created by Birder
I have just updated to 1.6.4 and all is going well, however i have come up with one thing i cannot work out

Normally and on this forum, when you add a new topic, there is a category drop down list at the top which contains a list of categorys, defaulting to the one where you are

Since my update the only categorys listed are those that can be seen by the public

I cant find any setting to change this, does anyone have any ideas?

thanks

I haven't seen anything like this before. The feature works just fine in here.

It could even be a template issue -- have you tried default template?

Please include your configuration report (found in Kunena backend) to allow us to take a better look.

I have a feeling that this topic may shed some light on the subject: Section disappeared from New Topic drop-down menu . Only seems to affect users of K 1.6.4.

Please read What information should I include when I ask for help (including how to post my configuration report)? There is no need to edit your configuration report. Thank you. :)

I have followed the links you have given and at the end of one you posted:

Issue resolved.

The problem arises because all the forum sections were locked. This means that the sections (as well as the categories within those sections) are not displayed in the pull-down.

The cause of the problem (why were the sections locked) remains a mystery but there are two solutions. One solution is to use the Categoy Manager (however the technique is a little complicated to summarise in a simple way here). The other solution - the one that was used in this case - was to directly modify the jos_kunena_cateogories table in the database.

The details of this fix will not be comprehensively posted here, but the technique involves looking at all records where the parent = 0 and change the locked value from 1 to 0.

Thank you, Matthew, for your help in solving this problem. Good luck to you in the future.

I have looked at the jos_kunena_categories table and only the categories that uses can create topics in is listed, however when i log in to kunena as a joomla superuser and i can create topics and all my categories are listed.

What should i do

Thanks
