Hi Paul,

Problem fixed. Because you were a member of the VA forums that Leif set up you had elevated access permissions to access the relevant forums. When I've created the new site with the data transferred from the old database it has assumed, incorrectly, that those with elevated permissions must be a descendant of the admin group rather than a higher level of the registered members.

Now fixed and system emails turned off.

Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Please let me know if there are any further issues.

Rob.

Thanks for that Rob. I'm sure that's the problem fixed but as you say, I'll let you know if anything else happens. :cheers:

Ah, Leif, RIP mate, we still miss you. What a top chap he was. :(

I keep in contact with Stacy and Tag via Facebook. They're doing well and Tag just started 7th Grade. They moved back to Hawaii after Leif's passing so Stacy could be closer to family. He is definitely missed.

I will pass it along guys. I know she's thankful for the support we gave her (even virtually) after his passing, so I'm sure she'll be happy to hear from you guys.
