Hello there, dear MyBB Community.
I have an issue with my MyBB forum and I would like to see if I can get support.
Every time I try to view any URL in my forum that is located at
misc.php?action=SOMETHING, I get a No Permissions error page. It happens with the Help page, and with a plugin that uses misc.php to display the past usernames of the users. I have had this problem for quite a time, is there any way I can fix this?
I checked the permissions for my usergroup (admin), and I can't find anything that would let me access those pages again. Also, as a note, any page created with the plugin Pagemanager, that uses misc.php?page=SOMETHING instead that misc.php?action=SOMETHING, works fine.
Example.
If you need any other information, I'll be glad to give it to you. I add a screenshot of the error page although it's the common MyBB No Permissions error page.
What does the File Verification tool say?
Admin CP->Tools->File Verification
My guess is a bad plugin hooking into misc_start or misc_end.
Thanks to all of you for your answers

It says "Congratulations! No corrupt files have been found on your installation."

It seems that all the groups but Guests are having the problems. I tested with an admin account and a "registered" user.

There are two queries using misc_start. One updates mybb_sessions and the other one selects the "error_nopermission_loggedin" message. Is any of them causing the problem? I have little knowledge on queries and hooks, sorry.
I don't have access to the file. If you could upload the plugin file as an attachment, assuming it is a free attachment, we would be able to look at the code for you.
Review all your plugins in the inc/plugins/ folder and look for any hooking into the misc page. Disable each one until you find the one causing the problem. Oh and upload misc.php again just in case.
