Just to clarify a few things:
I further updated my local bbPress plugin to 2.0.1 (as on dev and live) and it continues to work fine. The issue still remains on dev and live though.
Our forum landing page consists of the template parts content-archive-forum.php and content-archive-topic.php.
content-archive-topic.php calls form-topic.php – we’ve used js to show/hide the form (or in this case the error message) when the “New Topic” button is pressed.
The issue only occurs on the forum landing page – adding a topic to individual forums works fine.
If it will help you can check out one of the sites here: http://homemag.co.za/
Login with facebook on the landing page, and then go to http://homemag.co.za/forums (we’ve temporarily hidden the menu item).
Thanks,
Iain
One more update: I tested on my local install with bbPress 2.0, an the issue does not occur.
The dev and live sites are on 2.0.1, and the issue occurs on both. So I’m thinking this may be a bug in the latest plugin update?
After more testing it appears that it’s not only WP-FB-Autoconnect users who are unable to post. Only the super admin account ‘admin’ is able to post. All other users receive the message “You cannot create new topics at this time”, even if I set their user privileges to ‘administrator’.
