sp_LatestPostsTag – not displaying post in place of hidden forum posts

Hi, 

 

I’m using the template tags plugin and am displaying the latest posts on the homepage of my site using sp_LatestPostsTag. I can see the top 5 latest posts as admin but this includes a private forum which has been set up for modoraters.

when I have tested this using a test user account with a subscriber setting they can see the first two posts from the open forums and the posts in the private forum are hidden as expected. however it does not replace these with available posts from the open forums. so this makes the forums look empty (or only contain two posts)

Is there a way to fix this so if the user can’t view x forum (due to permissions) it replaces the posts form viewable forums?

Cheers

This does look like an issue with our post list class that the template tag uses…  I have a working prototype that we are testing…  all goes well, should be able to get it into the SP 5.1 release tomorrow…

sorry for the issue…
