Question Only admins can view topics

I upgraded fron Kunena 1.6.5 to Kunena 1.7 and discovered that I had to set the permissions for all Kunena categories.

So I set them to the public user group and that child groups should be included. But a visitor can´t view any topics they can just see the categories but not the topics.

Is it a bug or am I doing something wrong?


I have Joomla 1.7 Kunena 1.7, php 5.2.14 and mysql 5.0.77.

Hello,

I could fix the categories issue by:

Editing a category and by setting following values:
Access Control Type: Access Level
Access Level: Public

If you have many categories then you can edit table by:
Table: jos_kunena_categories

Update Following fields to:
accesstype jooomla.level
access = 1
pub_access = 1
pub_recurse = 1

Regards,
Ajay

I found out that you can use user groups if you in Kunena configuration under intergration set the access level to be "auto detect" instead of "joomla".

Before that I tried to use access levels instead but that didn´t work, the above did!

There was a bug in Kunena 1.6 which ignored recurse = No setting. If you wanted to have one group only forums, those didn't work (as they did in some point of Kunena 1.5 and now in Kunena 1.7).

As Kunena has default setting of Recurse = yes, I thought that fixing this issue wouldn't have many side effects. It looks like I was wrong.. Anyway, you can now use either access levels or set recurse = yes.
