    In this 74 forum, will we have private forums? And if so, any idea of timeline?

    If the timeline is too distant, I will have to use a password protection directory and install a separate bbpress to handle the privacy issue. It would be nice if I didn’t have to do that (less work too), and could just incorporate privacy features into my existing bbpress forum.

    Solved. It was a css problem in the profile section!

    Could it be that IE6 doesn’t like it that there is no css for id “profile-page”, except what I assume is inherited?

    The source code shows fine in IE6. So it has to do with the css.

    This part I question:

    ul id=’profile-menu’

    in the template-functions.php file.

    I would think that IE6 would want a

    ul id=”profile-menu”

    but that just produced an error.

    They cannot view their profile in IE6. But they can view their profile in Firefox.

    That was it mdawaffe! A plugin called mod-write-topics. And it’s been booted out! Now members can add posts.

    But members cannot view their profile, which I think they should be able too.

    I want it to be that simple earlgrey. But you will notice as a “Member” that the “Add New” will disappear. My capabilities.php is the original .73 version.

    I was wondering why no one was posting, until a viewer emailed me with their posting problems.

    I definitely don’t want to change all my Members to Moderator status, as they can edit users etc.

    I want Members to add new topics, and handle their topics, and change their profile.

    Okay, this so-called IE 6 problem when logged in as Member has to do with capabilities roles. Members can’t add new topics, only edit topics. That’s why I couldn’t see so much stuff. And I was still logged in with Administrator status in Firefox that Firefox appeared to be fine. Knocking my head against the wall!

    The automatic default when someone subscribes is to give them Member status. I would like to give my Members capabilities to add new topics within the forums, and handle those new topics. What would be the additions I would have to make in the capabilities to handle those areas? I think giving them Moderator status is too much, but I’m not sure.

    But if I click on the login button with nothing in the fields, the bb-login.php pops in. Then I can login. What gives that I can do the login in the intended way in IE6?

    I’ve discovered more IE6 problems.

    If I am logged in as just a member, I cannot see my profile, just the title of the forum!

    When I want to add a new topic, I cannot see “Add New”. Just shows “TOPIC -“.

    If I try to add a new topic by clicking on a forum (after being registered), all I can see is “New Topic in This Forum”, then just blank space!

    What the h* is going on? Everything is beautiful in FireFox.

    Anything on the rest of the page, I can click on, including the Register link. The file permissions for login.php and login-form.php are set to 644 which is what it has always been.

    You need to change the colour in your .deleted.alt in your css file. For some reason, IE6 uses that for the alternate.

    You call the image using the example that I came at the beginning of this thread. The opening and closing tags will convert unless the plugin is installed.

    I also have a sticky user’s guide, and added this wording:

    To start a new thread or topic, click on the Start New Topic Here link in the “Latest Discussions” section.

    Advantage to Starting a New Topic:

    You Topic Heading will show up in Latest Discussions!

    Disadvantage to Replying to an Existing Topic:

    If your reply has no relevance to an existing topic, it will not feature prominence in “Latest Discussions”. But please feel free to reply to an existing topic , if it is relevant to the existing topic.

    I think I have figured out a way to help the misguided user. The “Add New” is too vague. I think it needs to be more explicit. So I have changed it to “Start New Topic Here”.

    If that doesn’t help, I’ll change it to “To Start New Topic, Click Here”

    But I’ll keep you posted on the first rewording change.

    Except the person replied to a sticky that I had not closed. So it will not move by itself. His post was completely different from my sticky. I think all I can do is close the sticky. Delete his post, and re-create it under my username.

    I discovered the answer to my question on the definition of user types.

    https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/160?

    But as for the other problem of having a forum designated as private, for now, I will have to create multi-bbpress boards.

    I guess this is where the user type comes in to solve some of my problems. What are the definitions to the user types?
