I am currently:

Hang on hang on - normal members should not be able to see deletion notices, only Mods...

The forum / usergroup permissions matrix is an absolute nightmare. With a total of 65+ forums, and nearly the same usergroups, and custom permissions available for every combination, makes thousands of possible options and literally hundreds of things to check and get right. It is quite possible that there are some errors still remaining, i wish someone had told me sooner!

Looking at the permissions for say, general chat - everything looks like none of you can see deletion notices in that forum. The main permissions for both registered members and supporters, as you are for example Jo are set to not show these deletion notices - so I am a little puzzled

This is something that needs sorting - it must be something to do with you guys being staff, as I can't see how registered members could be seeing them in any way - which is how it should be. Indeed none of you, only the Mods as I said should be able to, for obvious reasons.

Can those who can see deleted noticed PLEASE post which forums they see them in. I am now going to make a deleted post in every forum, so if you see one please let me know so I can go through and check permissions.

As for thread moves. It is a mod option at the time of moving whether or not to show a 'ghost' redirect (for example if a well known thread is moved which could confuse people who can't then find it) but for most thread moves it won't be set to show.


Thanks guys - keep me posted
