This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: At one time it seemed that Access Groups were automatically applied to forum posts based on their parent forum post's Access Groups. Now that does not seem to be happening.
Solution: There has never been such an integration that I'm aware of. Access Groups must be added manually regardless of the forum parent post. Not sure how it happened before, but my guess is that someone else set the post group manually. This process is unfortunately unavoidable.

I am trying to:
Before, when I would add a forum to a post group, the children of it (topics, and replies) would automatically be added to the post group. This was particularly useful if there were many topics within a forum.
However, when I add a forum to a post group now, this doesn't seem to happen.
Link to a page where the issue can be seen:
If you go to hidden link
and view it in the admin dashboard, you will see that it is not part of the "Maryville University" post group.
However, if you go to hidden link , which is a forum from a year ago, you will see that it is part of its parent's post group "Morgan State", even though I never manually added it to this post group.
Did I do something incorrectly or should this behavior still work?
