Hi,

On mobile TL3/Moderator’s have access to edit category information (only when accessing website via mobile) but when saving edit an error message comes up ..

Is this issue known ?

Thanks

Should I upload some screen shots ?

Basically on desktop Mods can’t edit a category(which is correct) but on mobile if we go to the site we will see `edit` and we can edit the category info but once we click save we get an error from two different mods: 1. `403 forbidden` 2. `You are not permitted to view the requested resource.`
