I wonder if it isn't related to our recent upgrade of EasySocial. In the front end, when the user clicks on a discussion, instead of seeing the post this message appears on screen:

"Posts to this board are public, but to ask questions you must be a logged-in member.

I am scratching my head because it was working fine and I have monkeyed around with the settings. The only major admin event on the site was upgrade of EasySocial. I hope you can take a quick look. Maybe I also need to upgrade EasyDiscuss? You can experience the glitch yourself by going to huntingplanit.com, logging in as test user/xxx and going to Connect/Discussion Board.
Thanks as always,

Hello Jim Gribble,

I'm not so sure i understand your current issues here,
If i'm not getting wrong your meaning, you would like to rid out of this message ""Posts to this board are public, but to ask questions you must be a logged-in member." right?
If yes, you can remove it from your backend > easydiscuss > Setting > general > main description ( http://screencast.com/t/6QTUqnPVzb )
If no, can you elaborate your question with more details, and include a screen shot of what you are referring to? please advise.

Arlex,
The problem is that when the user tries to read a discussion, some kind of error message appears instead. It happens whether or not the user is logged in. Please accept my invite to log in yourself as test user/xxx. A screen shot is attached.
Thanks as always for the quick response!

Hello Jim Gribble,

It seems like you disabled that Editor - TinyMCE plugin then causing this issues out. I have help you enabled it, it work fine now. Please have a check

Thanks Arlex. Recently I went through and disabled all extraneous plugins. I thought this was one because I am using JCE instead of Tiny MCE. Noted for future reference!

Hello Jim Gribble,

You're welcome Because the TinyMCE is one of the default editor in Joomla, it might not allow people to disable it
