Has anybody the same problem? For me this is makes the forums unusable because I can not let Users see Posts that are specifically not for their eyes. Could anybody reproduce the error or would like to know more specifics to reproduce it?
I am sorry. I have only almost the same behaviour. My error is with another widget (namely the “(bbPress) Recent Topics” Widget). I did not want to take attention away from this post. I really thought it was the same widget and therefore the very same error. Maybe they are related though, if the user logged in is misidentified and therefore the wrong topics are visible? To me it seemed as if the widget had other “user rights” or “other user ID” than needed.
For more information on my problem with private group forum visibility please follow my link to the buddyPress support as I took it to be an error with buddyPress but probably it really is more of a problem with bbPress.
I am also still experiencing this. I did post it in BuddyPress support as I didn’t know whether it is an issue with BuddyPress groups or bbPress forums.
