Forums no longer accessible – being logged out?

I was updating quota permissions to allow non-admin quotas to use the forums and added a solution to a post in one of the forums. Now When I click on the forums tab in the nav from the ACP I get logged out.

https://archive.thechocolatelife.com/community/forums nothing has changed about the link

Even so – the forums should be visible. They are also missing on the home page in the section reserved for the forums.

I reset the caches (but not the PHP opcache).

Curious to know what might have changed.

This is the ACP view and what happens when I click the Forums tab in the nav.

I did not change the base URL – everything was working properly yesterday and until I made the quota change.

When I change the URL to go to the home page I see that I am logged in - but the Forums are not visible.

"....I was updating quota permissions...." - That looks like the first place to look at. Go see if whatever quota the 'community' profile is in still has forum module access.

If that is all good, reset the caches and run the integrity check.

This solved the problem - Thanks! I was wondering about this as it’s been a while since I’ve been looking at quota configs: it seems a little counterintuitive that quotas have profiles but it may be that I am more than a bit rusty here.

One thing I am noticing, however, is that the Integrity Check always hangs: - it stops here (in the attached image) and doesn’t terminate as expected.
