That is likely a permissions problem -- somehow the mapping for
'Add portal content' is toast in your 'Member/foo' folder.  Check
the security tab of the folder -- who has the permission?  In a
"stock" CMFSite, the permissions in both 'Members' and 'Members/foo'
should be totally acquired (no role-specific boxes checked, all
'Acquire permission settings?' boxes checked);  the CMFSite object
itself should have 'Manager' and 'Owner' checked for both 'Add
portal content' and 'Add portal folders'.
