Kunena 7.0.5 & Kunena 6.4.11 – Security Updates Released

The Kunena team has announce the arrival of Kunena 7.0.5 [K 7.0.5] in stable which is now available for download as a native Joomla extension for J! 5.4.x/6.0.x. This version addresses most of the issues that were discovered in K 6.2 / K 6.3 / K 6.4 and issues discovered during the last development stages of K 7.0.

The Kunena team is also pleased to announce the eleventh version of Kunena 6.4, a native Joomla extension for Joomla! 5.0, 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4 and 6.0.

If you are having problems then, for your own benefit, it would save us all a lot of time if you would kindly post your configuration report when you ask for help from this forum. If you do not post your configuration report we will not ask you for it but you will probably not get your problem solved, either.

Moderation was created by rlstephens

Sorry if this is answered somewhere, I looked everywhere and couldnt find an answer...

I have a "For Sale" category that is set to no moderation. Some users are able to post, others require moderator approval. I have no moderators on that category, but I do have 2 global moderators...

Any idea why it could be happening?

Please upgrade your Joomla and Kunena first. Latest are Joomla 2.5.22 and Kunena 3.0.5. But create a backup before!
Then disable the Kunena Plugins:
Kunena - AlphaUserPoints Integration
Kunena - JomSocial Integration
Kunena - UddeIM Integration
And at the plugin Kunena - Community Builder Integration choose "Enable Access Control = No".

Change the link Forums in the top menu to "Menu Item Alias". www.kunena.org/docs/Kunena_menu_issues

Code:

144 Forums topmenu view=home&defaultmenu=133

Then test, whether everything works correctly.

Important! Always create a backup before you make any changes to your website!

The key to solving this mystery lie in what you wrote at the beginning:

rlstephens wrote: I have a ... category that is set to no moderation. Some users are able to post, others require moderator approval.

The key to solving the mystery is to identify what is different to those users who can post without requiring moderator approval compared with those who do require moderator approval.

I see that you are using Community Builder. This could be part of the reason but may not have any bearing on the issue at all. The first thing that I would do would be to look at how you have set up the access to the category. The second thing that I would do is to change the forum integration plugin settings to the values shown in red below:

Kunena - AlphaUserPoints Disabled
Kunena - Community Builder Enabled: access=0 login=1 activity=0 avatar=1 profile=1 private=1
Kunena - Gravatar Disabled
Kunena - JomSocial Disabled
Kunena - Joomla Enabled: access=1 login=1
Kunena - Kunena Enabled: avatar=0 profile=0
Kunena - UddeIM Disabled

Also, unless you purchased and separately installed the Community Builder PM feature, the last setting in the Kunena - Community Builder plugin has no effect as far as I know.

Here is a similar topic. The user also had the right settings and it did not work. Maybe it's the same problem.
