You have insufficient privileges to post threads here.

As of this morning I can’t like or reply to anything in Sprinter Talk and sub forums.
I get message at bottom of page “ You have insufficient privileges to post threads here.”
It was fine yesterday and seems to be ok on other forum groups.

How do I fix this?

Sorry about that. Apparently some users didn't propagate to the new settings since last night.

The new settings have everyone propagate to "verified" users, where you have full privileges. The old setting was just "registered" user, which currently has limited privileges; cannot post in Sprinter Talk, cannot PM (conversation), cannot create signatures, cannot create profile pictures / avatars, etc.

This change is mainly for new users that have less than 1 post. This way they cannot PM users (scam) until after their first post and they cannot post to Sprinter Talk (forces new users to post to their respective forum years). I don't know if all of this will work, but trying it.

Orion (yes, I haven't forgotten about the dark skin coloration) may have the right idea on cookies. I had to manually set users that did not propagate.

I change some settings so that more users can easily propagate, so let's see.

FYI, it is still telling me insufficient privileges even logging in using a new/virgin browser.....

I had to set yours manually for some reason, and you were already under verified.

No surprise. My IT professional nickname is Captain Coredump, because of my uncanny knack for breaking systems by just using them.

FYI, my posting permissions are working again.

Thanks to you and all of the other admins/mods who keep this forum running!!!!!

Where is an appropriate place to post an initial post? I'm just hoping to contribute to the thread on fuel filter replacement.

(and don't these messages count as an initial post?)

Try it now. Something went wrong. :hmmm:

EDIT: Apparently, the switch over (privileges) doesn't occur instantly.

I am a new member and can't reply to any posts other than this one from what i've tried. I haven't tried to make a new post or thread because I don't want to just make one for no reason and add junk to the forum. I was wanting to post to a thread on LS swaps since I am currently doing one to my van myself. Had a few questions to the few other people that have already done one. Could someone fix this issue for me?
