Description

On or around 9/12/16 we were having an issue with the ITP Core 1 course site on the Commons: http://2016itpcore1.commons.gc.cuny.edu/
To summarize the issue: users on the site were inexplicably having their status demoted without an administrator’s action. Students were given “author” status on the site, but several of them reported being unable to post, when we checked on their status, it had switched to “subscriber.” This even happened to the course instructor, who had admin status, but then somehow got downgraded to subscriber.
We haven't experienced this issue since it happened, but wanted to report the bug.
