Hi all,

I have a category that has about 6 forums. All have no public access; you need to be granted rights by being added to a certain group.

Its been running fine for a years now, but now suddenly, out of the blue, one of the forums isnt visible. I checked the Admin CP and its there, forum can be edited, moved. Its even listed in the database, but it wont show up on the main page.

I have checked perms, but being site Admin, I have access to all forums anyway.

Any idea's appreciated.

Have you tried running the consistency checker? Are there any other groups that control permissions for this forum, if so check them and the permissions they define.

You are an absolute legend Ilia!! That fixed it. Matter of seconds to run. I thought I'd be spending hours getting this one sorted out.

You're worth more money mate! Your service is nothing short of excellent!
