I have been playing around a bit and there is something strange with my administration of admins. This may explain some of the issues.

1 – Even if I logged in as WPAdmin and declared as SPAdmin I still appear as Guest on the Forum Page. Same if I log as a contributor. In any case, the SP Login button has no effect, logged in or not.

2 – I can pretty much do what I want on the Forum Administration Panel. Except:

a – create / Edit Groups and Forum

b – manage SPAdmin, expect adding authors as SPAdmins. I have added 2 WPAdmin to my site, but they do not appear in the bottom “WP Admins But Not SPF Admins” and the 2 WPAdmin existing at the SP installation are like frozen and I can edit the rights. The first one seem to be master admin (with a padlock) and the second one only has plugin, theme and use Group  – I cannot edit it. There are 2 buttons per option for those 2 admins but not for regulor authors when I add them as admin. See here.

c – I have created another authors / contributor / Admin in my WP in they do not appear in the SPAdmin menu as potential Admin, etc… I see only 2 contributors that were existing before the SP upgrade – on my old version.

I hope this helps you find something. Sebastien

not sure where Andy was going, but he may not be around until tomorrow…

did you replace the actual names with xxx?

on the admins, those double checkmarks indicate a conflict with some js… doubt its a show stopper… but did you say you could not change that?  wort noting that a couple of those are moderators not admins…  are you not able to change ‘Set’?

in the groups in db, the sequence should be unique – both are 2…  make one 1 and the other 2…

Yes I did replace values to xxx before submitting to reduce the space on the post.

I cannot change any of the Green Tick boxes for the admins in both Admin and Moderator section of the Manage Admin Section. I added one Moderator that I can update. I still cannot add WP Admin to SP Admin.

I have change the sfgroups – group_seq with “1” to the first one and id not see any change. Note that when I display the forum I have the following message: “No groups have been created yet”. I still cannot edit / add groups / forum in my forum administration.

I am in danger of losing the plot here! Is there a chance you could let us have access to your admin so that we can take a look to see what is going on? And that would need to be an SP Admin account of course.

If that is possibe then please PM credentials to both myself and to ‘Mr Papa’. Please include in the PM a link to your site, a link to this thread and brief reminder of the problem. And one of us will take a look for you.

I suspect your data is not correct in this area.

In the ‘sfmembers’ table there are two columns. One called ‘Admin’ and one called ‘Moderator’. If either is set to the number 1 then that user is treated in that role. I believe that for the user with your name and for the user called ‘admin’ BOTH of these columns are set to 1 whereas for these two users the ‘Moderator’ column should be set to zero.

This, as you may have anticipated, fixed the display issue in my “Manage Admins” area. Thank you.

My list of WP Admins But Not SPF Admins still remains empty. If I understand correctly I should see there the list of WP Admins. Am I right?

I still cannot view / edit / add groups / forums.

I still have some javascript not executing on my forum page (Loging buton for example).

Thank you. Sebastien

I suspect I would need to be able to look at the database itself to see if I can see what the issue might be with not seeing the forum data in the admin. Would you be able and willing to perhaps make an export of your DB and zip it up and email it to me so I can take a look?
