I'm running bbPress 0.8.3 with allow-images, fix bbPress, notification, and private-forums plugins. Except for the problem (below), everything is running fine.</p> <p>Basically, if a regular member clicks "ADD NEW" link on the front page of the forum, their Pick a Section dropdown list is blank, and if they go ahead and submit the new post form, they get an error that the forum topic is closed.</p> <p>If same user clicks on a forum and posts from there - works fine. If an adminstrator clicks from front page, it works fine. If I deactivate the private-forums plugin, it works fine.</p> <p>Can anyone suggest a way to fix this? Besides deactivating private forums,that is. ;) </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/pick-a-section-not-showing-forums-cant-add-new-topic-from-front-page#post-12343 Wed, 28 Nov 2007 18:31:39 +0000 Trent 12343@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>The regular uses still have the option to post in the hidden forum and get the error or on all forums? Not quite sure the exact problem. Could you explain a little more for us people that need to be explained things like we are 5 years old? :) For example, what plugin are you using. What exactly do you see versus the regular users, etc.</p> <p>Trent </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/pick-a-section-not-showing-forums-cant-add-new-topic-from-front-page#post-12230 Mon, 26 Nov 2007 07:14:01 +0000 850 12230@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Hi. I run a private forum, but plan to allow some people in.... but, I still want them to not be able to read one of the forums. So.. I set all the current users as Moderators and let them access to the hidden forum.</p> <p>The new problem I now have is.. regular members, when posting a new topic from the front page, have a BLANK drop down menu where they're to pick a forum to post in. When trying to post anyway, there's this error message: "This topic has been closed". </p> <p>All the moderators and myself can see the drop down forum categories just fine and don't have a problem posting. The only current option for the regular member, is to create a topic within the forum itself.</p> <p>Edit: sorry, posted in the wrong forum. I clicked the post button too quickly before choosing the Troubleshooting forum. </p>
