We initially had permission problems with this Component. The problem was that there is no hierarchial inheritance so permissions have to be defined.

One of our Publishers was getting a little irate and he could not publish from the Front End as 'Publisher' is excluded from the default installation.

We made it one of our first FAQ' (it is a common Bug Report and also gets no Answer in the Forum):
Why will QuickFAQ not Save and give a 403 error when Submitting Content from the Front End?

The file 'quickfaq.acl.php' in:
root/components/com_quickfaq/classes/
requires all possible user level permissions set and has excluded 'Publisher' from the default installation.
Use the 'README.php' file in:
root/components/com_quickfaq/ ...to get more information on User Permissions.
QuickFAQ does not have a 'hierarchial inheritance' meaning that just because an 'Editor' has permission, unless defined, a 'Publisher' does not.
