G'day,
I have had a forum software running for a few years here:
https://forum.rcflyingclub.com/
Users have started reporting they can no longer see forum that they are group members of. I have reproduced the issue with a test user.
I have a General discussion forum accessible to all Registered Users.
I have a Club Members only forum that is visible only when Registered members get added to that Group and another Committee Members only forum that is only visible to members of that group. Previously I could just add the additional groups to a user and the permissions would inherit nicely. Now however, users cannot see any forums except the publically viewable forum or if I make their primary user group a non standard group. Is this intended behaviour?
I created a new test forum and test group. gave Test users access to the test forum but its not visible:
Test User:
testuser01
testtesttest

Going to the direct URL shows its a permissions error for the users. https://forum.rcflyingclub.com/forumdisplay.php?fid=8

I have updated all plugins and themes, disabled all unnecessary plugins.

The problem persists when the default Mybb theme is forced as well.
What can I do to fix this issue?
