/*
 * Conditional tag to check if a user can view a specific post, by checking if they can see the forum that it belongs to.  
 * Non-logged in site visitors cannot view posts if groups were selected for the forum they belong to. 
* 	A user cannot view a post if their group role has not been selected in the meta box on the edit forum screen in the dashboard.  
 *  If no groups were selected, all users and site visitors 
 * 	can view the content.
 *
 * There are exceptions to this rule though.  The post author, and users that have the ability to edit the post can always 
 * view the post, even if their role was not granted permission to view it.
 *
 *Much of this code is Justin Tadlocks' from the members plugin - thanks Justin for awesome work !
