Would love one aswell. Or maybe there are gamers on here... Do you think this addon could be used to offer very basic "private" forums for guilds on a fansite for a online roleplaying game.... It sure sounds like it.

I've been skimming through this thread for a while now and I can't seem to find anyone reporting this bug:
Social forum moderators are able to move threads from their small social forum into any section in main forum. Also it seem that we're getting all the time this error:
I don't know if it related in any way to the mentioned bug. If needed I can provide full stack trace.

Code:

This is not a bug. If you give them permission to move threads then they will have permission to move threads.
This is a known bug and is fixed in the next update.

I'm not quite sure if you understood me well. I was meaning social forum owners and people they assign as moderators. They are able to move the threads to the main forums. Not only inside the social forum they created.
If there is some configuration option for that in permissions then I couldn't find it (might be that I was looking in wrong place, sorry). And if it's there then it shouldn't be on by default.
BTW, thanks for the prompt response. I believe ETA for the new release is "when it's ready", right?

Valid point, it probably shouldn't be set by default. Please check the options for this add-on where you will see all the available permissions.
That's correct.

Not that I am aware of. I have checked through all the changes that were made in 1.1.4 and haven't seen anything that is likely to affect any Waindigo add-ons.

Hi it's me again! 
Two things, FIRST:
If a group used bbcode in their description, it will show up like this in the group list. Stripping bbcodes out of there, and a maybe a character limit (if there isn't one already), OR a special short description of the group just for displaying in the groups list would be really awesome.
And second:
I just want to make sure I understand this query. This will move/convert ALL threads from a specific forum in to a Social Group that has already been created? ZZZ is the forum all my threads are currently in. XXX is the Social Forum Category that holds all my groups, and then YYY is the Social Group itself, right?

Great, thank you!

I think you can make groups sticky. If the option isn't in the current version, it is definitely in the next version.

I have returned with a strange problem!
On my test forum the permissions keep getting reset -somewhere-, where threads show up in multiple groups. Basically threads for any group you have permissions to view will show up in almost every group. I haven't added any new usergroups, so I know it's not a new usergroup permissions' conflicting. Then I have to go from beginning (reuploading the addon file), setting permissions step by step via instructions from this thread on every usergroup - sometimes more than once cause it dun seem to work the first time - and I can never tell exactly which permission in which section (node or usergroups) is the one that keeps messing it all up and getting reverted. Cause as far as I can tell, none of the settings have changed.
It's perfect for a day or two, then bam! Suddenly right back where I started!

Hi,
I think this happens if one of the other add-ons that it has been modified not to conflict with is uploaded but not installed. I think this is fixed in the upcoming update, so if you are happy to wait for that then you can just reinstall and uninstall that... or I can send you an advance copy if you want to risk it.
