Question Changing profile info changes user's usergroup

Hi guys,

I have a problem I ran into last night. I am using Kunena as a school forum where I have categories containing individual classes and their subcategories. The logged in user can see only the content of the class he is a member of. This actually runs very well

But there is a problem when any user tries to change any of his/her profile information. I have disabled the ability to change username and real name, but it doesn't help. When the user changes location, password, ICQ number, anything, he is automatically treated as a Publisher as a usergroup. And I am sure I don't want that . The admin (me) than has to manually assign the usergroups in Joomla back to its original state and confirm the settings in Kunena as well.

Here is the configuration settings.

Thank you very much for your answers!

Hello,

Please update to Joomla 1.6.6

Hello, thanks for the reply.

I have tried this immediately after posting my first post here. But the error still persists. I have currently disabled the option for the user to change the profile. But I would like to have that option for them.
