    User Permissions Issue

    I'm having a tough time configuring the permissions for one user. This user belongs to a usergroup of a few others who have certain permissions for certain forums (they all share the same permissions).

    Now the problem is, the one user cannot access a particular forum at all. Everyone else in the same user group have no problems - it's just this one user. I have set the access masks and forum permissions to allow, but to no avail.

    Now when viewing this user's info in the admin cp, I use the quick user links to check his permissions. Everything in Access Masks are fine, however under Forum Permissions, everything shows up as no, even the ones I had set to yes when configuring it. I try to go back into forum permissions to check, and they all still say yes! I cannot figure this out! Can anyone offer some advice on this one?

    Thanks!

    Don't use access masks to do this. Whether or not they see a particular forum depends on the forum permissions of the group(s) they are in.
