Content creation issues following upgrade. 5.x to 6.x

Content creation issues following upgrade.

I have an active site with around 1000 users but since finally upgrading from 5.x to 6.x I am having real problems with content creation.

Forums – users can create a new forum node but it is not listed in the main forums.

FAQ – using the FAQ module I can again create a node but it is not then listed on the FAQ page.

Image nodes – as an admin I can create an image node Authenticated users cannot – permissions have been triple checked.

How to change Field Type (D6 to D7 migration)

Hey all, I am currently working on a D7 upgrade and have found that the CCK migration actually works pretty well. I am currently having a problem in which the default text field created in D6 CCK is read in as a Long Text in D7 fields, that wouldn't be such a big deal, but the only widget available is the multi-row text input. I am wondering if anyone knows of a way to change the Field Type in the DB to 'text' from 'long-text'. I tried doing it in the field config table, but that caused a PHP error.

Downgrading from Drupal 7 to Drupal 6

Is it possible to downgrade from Drupal 7 to Drupal 6, without having to manually transfer all content (cut and paste), and without running into problems with the differences in naming conventions for database variables?

line 499 in taxonomy.install

Hey there :)

Many sites have this ~bug:
http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=%22Taxonomy+upgrade+extras%22

This is caused by line 499 in taxonomy.install:

'label' => 'Taxonomy upgrade extras',

and is caused by upgrade from D6 to D7.

Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks :)
