Happy to be told that OG forum (or somewhere else) is the right place to report this bug, but at the moment, I think it site better here.

I have OG and OG forum running on my site. I have some forums which are OG forums and are private, and other forums which are normal site wide forums.

This bug relates to posting in a normal forum. OG mistakenly interrupts this process and invalidates the post. The poster gets an error message which says "You must join a group before posting on this web site.".

Am presuming that there is another condition to check that this node type is actually an OG node. i.e. is this forum attached to any OG group.

Some further clarification. This only seems to happen when the person is in !=1 OGs.

I have attached a perhaps slightly ridiculous patch against the 6.x-2.1 version which checks to see if this forum really is an OG forum.

It only makes sense to apply this patch to og if you are running og_forum because it calls an og_forum function, but then again, you should only see this problem if you are using og_forum. Thoughts on how to generalise this to og, or a way put the patch in og_forum most welcome.

NOTE: PATCH BELOW IS THE WRONG WAY ROUND - I've attached a new patch in a new coment
