No idea what happened because I don't touch the add-ons or plugins or what ever you call them. I leave that to Sandman who I made co-admin and made a member group called that. But today all he did was copy arcade files php files to the theme we are using (DilberMC) and he claims he was able to still be in the arcade no problem but later on he could not access it at all. Says there are no games.   In spending the last few hours (and I am sorry to say he already emptied the log files and told him he shouldn't have) trying to figure out what is going on, even though we don't know the cause, I have narrowed it down to only effecting additional member groups. Not the default ones.

Anyone have any idea?

Forum version: SMF 1.1.5, SMF 1.0.13
Current SMF version: SMF 1.1.5
PHP version: 4.4.7
MySQL version: 4.1.22-standard
Server version: Apache/1.3.37 (Unix) mod_ssl/2.8.28 OpenSSL/0.9.8d PHP/4.4.7 mod_perl/1.29 FrontPage/5.0.2.2510
GD version: bundled (2.0.28 compatible)

Also just like the co-admin the Contributor member group I made to work with the Treasury mod also has lost access to the SMF Arcade.

looking in permissions they are not denied access to anything and are not banned from any parts neither.

The reason why I deleted the error log was because it only stated the obvious.  ::)

But only for those members. When I changed a regular member's account to co-admin then he couldn't see it neither. Changed back to regular he could see games.

So it is an error in the page and not the arcade because the permissions in the arcade say there is no denies on any permissions.

Double check the Arcade Admin settings.

Admin > Arcade > Categories

Each category has permissions for "Groups allowed to access"

Thank you Karl.  That was what I missed.  All registered groups can see the arcade again.
