Hello!

I seem to have lost parts of my admin access rights to my own forum,being unable to edit for example topic titles, post typos etc. But I can still read, write, edit settings and do other admin tasks like deleting undesirable users etc. Site: https://www.kjentmannsmerket.org/community

I have tried to follow recommendations in this thread: https://wpforo.com/community/postid/33261/. but to no avails. Any ideas?

Thank you for reading this.

Best, Morten

Hi @mortenmost,

Please navigate to the Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Usergroups admin page, edit the Admin usergroup, and make sure all checkboxes are checked and check again.

Thank you. I had already tried that, and have tied again now, with no improvement. Also deleted all caches etc.

(Edit:) I have discovered that I'm able to edit items that are a year old or so, but not recent ones. And there has been a pause with very little activity in my forum.

Hello, I've managed to work it oput myself, so feel free to close this thread. Turned ut the problem was confined to a folder started without giving administrator access. I don't think the issue would have resulted in veryt good video, though, but thanks for your support.
