I installed OG forums. If I dont have ACCESS CONTROL>FORUM MODULE>ADMINISTER FORUMS checked, a user can not even see their group forum....they get an ACCESS DENIED message. Is this how its suppose to work?

I dont notice a difference if I check ACCESS CONTROL>OG_FORUM MODULE>ADMIN OWN GROUP FORUMS, doesnt matter what I have this set to.

I dont see any extra admin features on the page that a normnal user shouldnt have. I just wanted to make sure leaving the "forum module>administer forums" is ok to let checked, and that im using it as intended. I would think that having it checked would allow users to have administration rights over the main forums.

here's where im at. I have installed every version of OG forum I could. None work. Im currently running the DEV and heres whats happening:

Logged in user:

* can see ALL forums from the main forum page
* can access and post in group forum pages he doesnt belong to from the main forum page
* gets "access denied" when trying to access the group forum from the group details block on the group page. Noted that the URL it points to seems incorrect. For example the one group forum listed in the main forum page is .../?q=forum/4. In the groups detail block on the groups page the link is /?q=forum/7 for the same forum and it gives the access denied. If you change the URL to /?q=forum/4 it brings up the forum ok.
* getting alot of errors on page to submit a forum topic:

Any ideas? Im having no luck whatsoever with OG forums thus far :(

If you truly believe you've found a bug in a module or if you need module specific support and the forums insn't providing you with an answer which can happen if noone else watching the forums is using a certain module.

Go to the project page of the module in question and file a bug report using the links provided there.

Just hoping a OG forum guru will pop in and help ;)
