Re: Forum's permissions

posts: 214

I had never tested forums in 7 before, so I did some tests. I tested with only global permissions (tiki_p_forum_post, tiki_p_forum_post_topic, and tiki_p_forum_read) granted to the Registered group and then logging in as two different users in the Registered group.

As a Registered user, I was not able to delete any posts, but I did find a problem with edit. When listing the forum's posts, even without the "tiki_p_forum_edit_own_posts" permission, the edit icon does appear after the post titles which were posted by that user. And the edit icon does allow the user to edit their own posts. So there is a problem that you can edit your posts without the "tiki_p_forum_edit_own_posts" authority.

The edit icon within the post's display is controlled by "tiki_p_forum_edit_own_posts", if you have that authority then the edit icon appears within the post, if you do not have that authority, it does not appear. The only problem is that it appears and is active in the list of posts, whether you have that authority or not.
