Since the update to beta3, our moderators cannot modify their own or other's posts anymore. I tested it on both our test forum and the live one, and can confirm this is true. The forum field is empty, and cannot be filled, hence the edit is rejected. Any ideas? :)

Are you getting the error message in the title?

Do you have the forum_access_moderator_rid variable? Do you have the rid in the {role} table?

Have you created a role named 'Forum Moderator' yourself? FA tries to create a role with that name and this could lead to a conflict. Try changing the name of your 'Forum Moderator' role and let us know what happens.

That was it!!! Yes, exactly, I have a role "forum moderator", and since beta 3 it clashes with the forum_access module :) I have temporarily changed the role to "site moderator" (what's in a name anyway), awaiting a more permanent solution. Thanks, salvis!

Great, thank you for the quick turn around!

I have to handle the potential conflict, of course.

Once FA has created the role, you can rename it to anything you like and then rename your initial role back.

Apart from that, it works perfectly :D
