Why were most of the sections only available to registered users yesterday?




The reason is that we had an overload situation on the server. When this happens, I adjust the forum permissions so only those who really want access (read: those who register!) have access to the forum.


I also adjusted some other permission settings – eg. for members who are not vegans yet - and those who recently have gone vegan. For some reason – and that the reason was probably an error on my side! – some user groups didn't have all the permissions set correctly.


Unfortunately, this affected also some of the 49 new members who registered yesterday. There may still be room for improvement, so please let me know if you have any suggestions, or think that you don't have the permissions/access you should have!
