    In the last 10 minutes I seem to have lost a lot of posts and can't access the regional forums. Anyone got any idea of what's going on?

    I'm having the same issue. If I try to access the Tralee thread I get a permissions error.

    Hey there Muffler!

    Could you please try to access those forums for me now as a test?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,246 ✭✭✭xxyyzz


    This is what I see if I try to access the Tralee thread

    Hi there,

    Could you please try to access again as a test for me?

    The permissions are screwed up. You can access the Cork City category (for example) if you're logged out, but not if you're logged in. Appears to have only affected the Regional categories

    Nothing happening Mike. I'm still getting the "you don't have permission" message and when I click on a link in an email notification it says page not found.



  • Administrators, Boards.ie Employee, Boards Employee 2, Boards Employee 3 Posts: 1,495 ✭✭✭✭✭Boards.ie: Mike


    I have adjusted the permissions for "registered user" on the regional forums now! Should be back to normal.

    I had just turned on and saved the permissions, most of the regional forums still do not allow permissions. Back to Vanilla I'm afraid. Bear with me!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 46,980 ✭✭✭✭muffler


    Also it looks like my posts in those regional forums are gone.

    You probably cannot even view your posts in that forum due to the permissions error. I had this issue for my "role" last week. I have called up a linked ticket request for this issue with Vanilla now.

    I'm having the exact same issue as xxyyzz for the Tralee and Kerry/Cork threads only. All other threads are accessible.

    Thanks

    I've been getting the same problem all day, and can only see the South/Kerry forums content when I log out.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,343 ✭✭✭GavPJ


    Having the same trouble :-(



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,613 ✭✭✭OscarMIlde


    Mrs O Bumble complained of the same thing this morning. Kildare forum opening for me on Chrome mobile.

    We are up and running again. Cheers Mike.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 978 ✭✭✭lordleitrim


    I still can't access the Cork and Kerry forums. I tried logging out and in again but no joy!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,899 ✭✭✭Apogee

    This feels like lockdown again, I can visit my local county, but Meath is Restricted Content. 😄

    East, Midlands and Midwest are accessible, but everything else says "Permission problem: You don't have permission to do that."

    Same on desktop and Android if that makes a difference.

    It's not fixed yet. Some people have been guinea pigs for test purposes, hence the Registered Users 2 group some now show.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,077 ✭✭✭sok2005


    Just jumping in here to say I have the same issue. Looking for a fix also.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,262 ✭✭✭azimuth17


    I cant access the regional forum at all. Permission access denied showing up.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,131 ✭✭✭Doomofman


    Still the same issue here currently



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,434 ✭✭✭Straight Talker


    I also can't access the Cork City or Galway forums. Some of the regional forms do seem to be working. I can access the Limerick forum with no issues.

    What's the criteria to be added to Registered Users 2?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,541 ✭✭✭Ciarrai76


    I've had another message to say it's not working yet. Told them topost here but just to make you aware issue is still happening.
