Hi,

I installed Game News template on Joomla 2.5.9 + K2 2.6.5 (the quick-start package).

My problem is that the K2 front-end edit function doesn't work.

For example, if I am logged in Front-end as a Super User (and this Super User is included in the K2 Group Site Owner with all permissions set on YES to add/edit/... for all categories.
From the back-end : ADD/EDIT ==> no problem.
From the Front-end : to ADD a new item : no problem.
But from the Front-end to EDIT an item ==> Error 403

Any idea ?

Found it !
In the Parameters settings of K2 in Advanced ==> in the Advanced SEF parameters
if I set K2_SEF_USE_ITEM_ID_IN_URL on NO, then Front-end editing doesn't work anymore
If I set it on YES ==> working again !!!
A bug of K2 2.6.5 ?

I went to html/ and changed the name of com_k2 folder for a moment as you said.
Then, I set back K2_SEF_USE_ITEM_ID_IN_URL on NO, to check if the problem still existed.
The answer is Yes : error 403 when you try to edit on front-end.
I guess it is K2 2.6.5 bug.
