My what's new block ONLY displays comments for the Admin user? New stories and links show up fine for all users.... Here's what I've found so far. There is a section in the COM_whatsNewBlock function (specifically the comments logic) that looks for SEC_hasAccess. This appears to ONLY include the Admin user? When I add the following echo statements, ONLY the Admin sees both comments... // Cap max displayed at 15 if ($nrows > 15) $nrows = 15; if ($nrows > 0) { echo "made it this far"; $newcomments = array (); for ($x = 1; $x <= $nrows; $x++) { $A = DB_fetchArray($result); if (SEC_hasAccess($A['owner_id'],$A['group_id'],$A['perm_owner'],$A['perm_group'],$A['perm_members'],$A['perm_anon']) > 0) { echo "<br>only the admin can see this?"; $robtime = strftime("%D %T",$A['day']); $itemlen = strlen($A['title']); if ($A['type'] == 'article') { $titletouse = stripslashes ($A['title']); $urlstart = '<a href="' . $_CONF['site_url'] . '/article.php?story=' . $A['sid'] . '#comments">'; } else { $titletouse = $A['question']; $urlstart = '<a href="' . $_CONF['site_url'] . '/pollbooth.php?qid=' . $A['qid'] . '&amp;aid=-1#comments">'; } I would assume that my user data and or group assignments are messed up? Can anyone shead some light on the subject? Or at least explain what SEC_hasAccess and how to insure that all users are in this?

If I coment out the if SEC_hasAccess statement, the block works for all site visitors? Is this needed?
