Super Admin can't leave comments, but users can.

Hi there, I don’t think this is still a bug in 3.1.1, but since your DB carried over from another 3.x installation it has the issue?

Backup your database and try this in the SQL Query Form/phpMyAdmin:

UPDATE exp_member_groups SET can_post_comments =  '1' WHERE group_title =  'Super Admins';

UPDATE exp_member_groups SET can_post_comments = '1' WHERE group_title = 'Super Admins'
Affected Rows: 0

Still have the issue :/

Are you sure you actually are logged in as a Superadmin? Can you add

Group ID: {logged_in_group_id}

somewhere in your code for debugging purposes? What do you get?

Definitely logged in as super admin. I can do everything else in the CP.

I get “0 rows affected” when i run the query.

It sounds like you have run into Bug #21409. As Pedro suggested you should be able to fix the problem with an SQL query. Can you tell me the group_id of your Super Admins group?

super admins are number 1. I ran the query and it returned the above results. Lines changed: 0.

Fixed it…. there was a typo. It said super adminS with an S instead of super admin in the query i copy and pasted above.

Thanks!
