Same problem. I don’t want to give these roles the “edit_other_forums” capability because that seems to overrule the restrictions I have in place. I need to have two private forums – one for one group and the other for the other group (these roles have no admin capabilities).
Yes, same exact problem. Did updating to rc3 fix it for you?
trevogre, were you ever able to get these to work together?
It seems like I have it so close – one role is restricted to one forum and another role is restricted to one forum. I set both my forums to hidden, add the read_hidden_forums to both capabilities, the appropriate error is displayed on the restricted forum but the roles can’t get into the appropriate forum to post or read topics. It’s like there should be a read_hidden_topics and publish_hidden_topics capability.
Private forums don’t seem to work at all. I tried the private setting and restricted the appropriate roles on the forums but the roles can still get into and post in both forums.
