Users without reply permission receive reply by email option in notifications
Horus reports a bug where users without reply permission in certain categories receive notification emails with the option to reply via email, only to be met with an error message when attempting to do so.
Horus has email notifications enabled on their forum, and the issue occurs despite correct security settings.
Ritchie requests a screenshot of the security settings, which Horus provides, showing that the “Vorstand” group has view, reply, and create permissions, while “Everybody” only has view permissions. The user receiving the notification is not part of the “Vorstand” group.
Hello,
I have email in enabled on my forum. Users get notifications saying to reply to that mail to reply. If they do so, they get an error message that they do not have permission to reply to that topic. Which is very correct given my security settings.
Users, who do not have rights to reply should not get an mail that offers to reply via email.
Is that already a known bug? Is there a workaround / quick fix?
Best Thanks!
Is this just on one specific category?
Can you share a screen shot of those settings with us please @Horus ?
