I have just added a clan member into this group and he can not vote in a poll that has been posted.

 

So i created a test user account, stuck this user into the Admin Assistants group and logged in as this user.  Went to where the poll is and it says ive already voted....

 

I have no idea what is going wrong.  I think my database might be cocked or something!!  Alot of NON clan members somehow got into a group i called Human Resources even though i had only added one of my members into...This unfortunately meant these visitors had access to what i thought was a restricted area

 

Im thinking about trying to remove all groups that ive added and try to get the database back into a default like way.....is this advisable

 

My admin assistant man is now also seeing duplicate forums appearing!!

 

I logged in as him and i did indeed see 2 x Rouges Gallery, 2 x Introduct Yourself forums.....Holy crap, what is going on

 

I set this user back to a normal user, and then deleted this admin assistants group.  I then added him to my Adminstrator group so he now has the exact same permissions as me, and he still sees the duplicate forums, but i do not.

 

OK, now that sounds like that could have been the problem, i do believe i took it out of ladder system, when i found this problem, but didnt realise the two things were related.  That now makes perfect sense because the visitors to the forum that got into the group were completely random...i'll keep my eye on this to make sure...thanks for that

I had been messing with his permissions, as i had given him full access via member permissions before realising that i should really create new groups for people to be in different positions etc.

 

I take it for this guy, i should goto Member permissions and just try and get him back to default settings somehow, and then add him back into the admins group?

 

Thanks for your reply borg, you have calmed my nerves somewhat

 

EDIT: Is there a quick/easy way to reset a users permissions back to a default state, before i go ahead and add him back to admin group?

 

I take the member out of the admin group and set him back to visitor.

 

I then went to Member Permissions and tried to unset stuff, but it seems what ever i do, fails.

 

Is there a quick way to get a forum member back to having no specificaly set member permissions???
