The Kunena team has announce the arrival of Kunena 7.1.0 [K 7.1.0] in stable which is now available for download as a native Joomla extension for J! 5.4.x/6.0.x./6.1.x./6.2.x This version addresses most of the issues that were discovered in K 6.2 / K 6.3 / K 6.4 / K7.0 and issues discovered during the last development stages of K 7.1 Just a reminder: K6.4.16 receives only securities fixes until end of 2026, so it's advised for users to upgrade to K7.1.
This category contains miscellaneous, uncategorised user contributions, (templates, modules, plugins and hacks) relating to older versions of Kunena that are no longer supported.
This category may also contain a few topics relating to K 1.6 that may have been moved here possibly by mistake.
The topics in this category are for historical interest only. Owing to the structural differences between K 1.6 and K 1.7, these ideas in these topics will not work with later versions and, for that reason, the topics are locked.
Did not try yet, but what about creating a childgroup (private2 for example) of already created private group (private1 for example), which is child of registered?
Its not perfect, but you can assign some users to group private1 with access only to this group and some users to private2 with access to private1 and private2.Does this work for you or am i thinking the wrong way…?
It seems there is only a small hack at kunena core necessary: Kunena has to look in which group_id's the user is a member (table jos_core_acl_groups_aro_map ?) and use this information for access.
Hi Dude,
thats correct. I tried to get this running (see
www.kunena.com/forum/110-user-contributions/23383
) but it wont work yet. Unfortunately I did not have any time to get deeper into kunena so if anyone more experienced has an idea how to add the control mapping table into kunena, I would be happy to see any tip
You don't need this hack if you don't have the same users in different restricted groups. In other words if you don't have a user called Joe for example in group A and group B in the same forum installation you just need control component and it works.
I've got another problem related to the Control component and restricted forums in Kunena.
When I assign a registered user to a group, he just doesn't see the private forum. However, if I create a new user and I assign it to the private group, he is able to see it. So, doesn't work for existing users... I think it must be something related to database refresh, but I don't know how to solve it, any help would be really appreciate.
And same problem when trying to quit a person from the private group: he's still able to see it and post in it, altough in the control panel I see this person as a current registered.
