Profile controls not visible to members (after update to 2021.009)

jkitz

Hello, I manage two vanilla forums. After an update I had to run the following so that various elements would appear to signed in members (thanks for the various useful threads on this.)

UPDATE GDN_Permission
SET `Vanilla.Discussions.View` = 1
   , `Garden.Activity.View` = 1
   , `Garden.Profiles.View` = 1
WHERE JunctionID IS NULL
AND JunctionTable IS NULL
AND JunctionColumn IS NULL
AND RoleID IN (
   SELECT RoleID
   FROM GDN_Role
)

UPDATE `GDN_User` SET Permissions = ''

This has fixed all issues on the one site, and all but one issue on the other site. Both are on the same host (meaning the same php configurations.)

The remaining issue is the profile controls are still not being visible on the older forum. This was upgraded from 2.3 and I am wondering if missing something in the instructions here https://success.vanillaforums.com/kb/articles/158-upgrading could have caused this? As far as I can tell I followed these correctly.

Have you checked via dev tools in browser whether the elements are loaded but perhaps hidden or blocked?

Which theme(maybe caused by local changes), does it persist if another theme is used?

Any errors in browser dev tools console?

Any error with debug enabled?

Are pretty urls enabled?

Hi Kaspar,

I was using Foundation Theme on the forum with the issue, and switching to another theme has solved this issue.

Thanks very much for the suggestion!
