I'm seeing "Polls and Voting" in my security configuration for a category.  I can't figure out where this is set.  It's not in my memberpress basic plugin which I have synced with WP roles. 

I'm trying to setup a forum category that is visible only when a user has a specific role assigned.  When I select the "Polls and Voting" role, users with a member usergroup cannot see the category.  If I give them read-only, the poll doesn't show up, but the poll description does.

I'm not sure where else to look for the answer to this problem.

Hi @othg-web-director,

It seems you just created the new Forum Accesses. Please navigate to the Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Forum Accesses admin page and leaves the screenshot of that page.

It seems there is a wrong configuration. So please navigate to the Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Forum Accesses admin page, edit each access and make sure all accesses set as you need.
