Hey Arlex, @Mark (I hope the mentions work so I can get your attention),

There is a major bug after upgrading from ED3.x to ED4.x - the accepted answer is shown for users who do not have access to the replies in the category, it is always shown, even to not logged in users.

This happens for all accepted answers in all categories.

You can easily reproduce the issue. The first screenshot shows the issue itself and the second shows the category permissions.

This same setup works perfectly fine in ED3.x - only the first post is shown and the accepted answer is not shown.

This bug is really a show stopper.
Hi Ivo Valkov,

Can you replace these files into the respected folder:
JOOMLA_FOLDER/administrator/components/com_easydiscuss/includes/post/post.php
JOOMLA_FOLDER/components/com_easydiscuss/views/post/view.html.php
And see how it goes? You are suggested to backup before applying this fix

Thanks Muhammad!
Yes, the issue is now fixed

But since you modified the JOOMLA_FOLDER/administrator/components/com_easydiscuss/includes/post/post.php file, could you please have a look at my last comment in this discussion and implement my feature requests as well?

You are most welcome. Glad to hear that your issue has been resolved now.

But since you modified the JOOMLA_FOLDER/administrator/components/com_easydiscuss/includes/post/post.php file, could you please have a look at my last comment in this discussion and implement my feature requests as well?

I will reply on your original thread regarding that `implement` discussion.

As a gentle reminder, kindly start a new thread if you have any other issue in the future so it will be easier for us to manage your inquiry. I will lock and mark this thread as resolved.
