I created a new userground for my board, and now when a user of that new group visits the default homepage at http://www.carolinarides.com , none of the modules show up (see attached image).

What can I do to correct this error?

You need to enable their permissions to view them

More specifically... Just go to the 'Quick Permissions Editor' under your vBa CMPS options and set the permissions there.

Alright, the usergroup is "checked" in every section but Quick Moderation, and I'm still getting the same problem. Any other suggestions?

I unchecked to test, and when I visit the forum with every box for the usergroup unchecked, I get a "No Permission" message instead of a blank page.

How odd...

There shouldn't be any reason you would be having a problem if you have the box checked on each module and that page for that usergroup. If you'd like to submit a support ticket though I'll be glad to take a look.

I do have the box checked on each module, and that page for the usergroup. Odd problem, I guess.

I did submit a ticket, and the usergroup in question is "ELITE Members". Thanks!

It looks like the problem with this is that the module cache was not being updated when the permissions are saved through the 'Quick Permissions Editor' link. For anyone else that's having this problem, look in your forum/admincp/vba_cmps_admin.php file for this code:
print_cp_redirect('vba_cmps_admin.php?do=permissions');

Add this above it:
update_module_cache();

Upload the file, save your permissions again, and that should take care of the problem.
