Having upgraded from newbb 1 to newbb 2, the forum-page at my site only works for members of the webmasters group. Going to the forum-page for any other user, only displays a "empty" page (showing only the welcome message, the main options menu,etc - no forums displayed)

I have followed the items from the readme-first file, and here's what I have done:

1.Deleted all files in old newbb folder
2.Uploaded all new files and runned the update script (newbb1_to_newbb2.php)
3.Updated the NewBB module in moduleadmin
4.In the readme, it says to set permissions for the categories and the forums - but I do not know what to do here. If it means to check off the correct boxes in groupadmin, I have done that....
5.included {$xoops_module_header} in the theme.html file
6.The readme says to update the newbb templates - but I guess that is only if I am not happy whith the default - so I have left them for now.

Ok - so all perhaps except item 4 has been done according to the "book" Anyone see what I have done wrong?

If trying to view all topics from the main options menu as a guest user, all the topics shows up like expected. But in the drop-down menu saying "--Select a Forum" at the bottom, the only value there is "ERROR"

Anyone? Please!



One more thing: when pressing the RSS button, I get the following message: "Invalid version number. Error processing resource 'http://www.yagi.no/xoops/modules/newbb/rss.php'. Line 1, Position 16 ---------------^"

I suspect this to be a separate issue - but my limited knowledge assures me not...

You, after upgrade, need to reset all permissions in all categories and forums. See the following two tutorials.

Category Creation Flash tutorial

And

Newbb 2 Forum Creation Tutorial

It will show you the permission settings to reset.

HTH.
