XF 2.1 Admins can't post new threads in forum.

[AngelArs]

I have a forum that even super admins can't create a new thread in.

When I go to the node section I have given permission to myself as a super admin to create threads in this forum.

Yet when I try all I see is a note that says "YOU HAVE INSUFFICIENT PRIVILEGES TO POST THREADS HERE."

What am I missing?

Any perms set to "never" override others. Example: if you have registered set to never for that node, the Admin who has registered as primary usergroup, is locked out regardless of the admin perm. Set registered merely to "no" instead of never.

Just off the top of my head.

If you've set the primary usergroup to anything other than registered, it might be best to make everyone's primary group "registered" and make "administrators" and other groups as secondary groups.

I double checked, and no user group has anything set to never.

That’s exactly how I have it set up. Still can’t post a new thread.

Have you used Analyze Permissions in the ACP to check on a) the global permissions and b) the node permissions for someone who can't post a new thread in the node you are having issues with?

Yes, the only thing set to no is two step verification.

Are you analyzing the node permissions against your user name. Post a screenshot of the results.

 

[AngelArs]

Yes.

The node is called Irresistible Items.

What if you change permissions for moderating group to post new threads? Does it allow you then? Any addons installed that might come into play with this?

I just set everything to yes for the Mods. It had no effect on being able to start a new thread.

Any addons installed that might come into play with this?

I disabled all add-ons. It had no effect on this issue.

Check the node itself and that you didn't tick this when you created it:

I keep forgetting this. Not a big deal because how often do you create new forums, but I'd think the default would be "allow."

The default is allow.

Not sure what I did then, found it unchecked in a new forum. If you create it as a subforum does it inherit?
