Strange - let's wait what our beloved Trolls have to say :-)

goetz

Update: The link is visible on the iPhone too.

Volker Please, check "settings page":http://developer.qt.nokia.com/groups/qt_linux/settings, What do you see?

Very strange i try on ipad now and work normal.
Are you sure you are not a onwer of that group? :P

Not that I'm aware of. The link is there even in groups where I am not a member (e.g. Qt Russia).

stukdev

Its incredible, for me works normal. Are you a super power user? :)

On that page I can only check wether I get email from this group or not. Nothing from the group owners options (invite people, group name/description, policies, etc.) are there for me in the Qt Linux group.

stukdev

But WAIT! You are a gene splicer!
Gene Splicer: can become moderator of the whole forum
Maybe is for this reason!

stuk, I thought on the Gene Splicer thingy too, but then Chetan should have that links too, as he is Mad Scientist. Also, I can become moderator of the whole forum, but I did not apply yet :-)

giesbert

But may become does not say, will be.
I thought you have to query for that (so ask the trolls)...

stukdev

For me this 'can become' is mean 'will become', is only for a better write of the phrase.
Ok, i will try some troll for some clarify.

Marius not available today.

stuk "can become" is mean "can become", if he want, if trolls accept him, etc...

This sounds like a bug, we will have a look. Having a rank is not enough to get moderation powers, they are all manually assigned by a troll admin.

Thanks for digging into it and trying on various browsers and devices, very helpful.

goetz

I just tried with IE8 on Windows XP - the same, links are present. Seems to be some weirdness with my account.

Some more stats:

I have the link in all but these two groups:
Site Moderators
Qt Ambassadors

I couldn't check these two groups, as they do not have updates yet:
Mobile Developers
Qt Romania

DenisKormalev

Volker, please look into mobile devs. I've left test there for you.

goetz

Denis, no link there. I have a guess, but need to verfy - stay tuned.

stukdev

Ok, i don't understand this, thank's for the clarify.

The guess was wrong :-(
I thought the link is there in all groups that have a forum, but I have the link in Python Devel too, which does not have a forum. And there is no link in Qt Ambassadors, although it does have a forum.

I was wrong. I got the link, once I reloaded the page.

Although I can say, it does not work:

bq. The form you submitted contained the following errors
You do not have access to perform this function

Thank you all for spotting this issue,

This was a bug , confirmed :)

I have fixed it, but please test it and see if you still see it somewhere please respond here.

Have fun and a nice weekend :)
