I suspect the groups for a user is stored on the user object, right? Just open bin/debug on staging and grab the object.

Nat got with me an hour ago and gave me a walkthrough on what’s happening. I recorded the screen so I could put it somewhere (let me know if it would help). In a nutshell:

- He showed me how, in GSA, he adds a user AndyHaupert to the FeatureAdmins group

- He then logs in as that user and goes to a post in /offices/budapest/forums/budapest.news

- That user doesn’t see the “Edit” or “Delete” actions on a post

- As KarlAdmin, though, the ACL looks correct

So the diagnosis appears to either be:

- That user should be in the group, but isn’t

- The template/view code which shows the actions, isn’t correctly doing has_permission
