Little bit confused here.
Does anyone know that if you upgrade back to 4.4 then do the steps above (changing forum / sub forum from public to private and saving inbetween) that it all works now?
@casiepa
yes I also have buddypress installed
Only way I found around that issue was to make the private forums public
sorry, was meant to quote the issue about not showing private sub forums
Yeah a rollback worked for me
In regards to user permission mods, I’ve used a combination of the following (but all were deactivated) and still had the problem.
Advanced Access Member by
AG Custom Admin
Restrict User Access
User Role Editor
However, didn’t test this on WP4.3 but my forums were originally created through buddypress, then added extra ones. The group with the subforums was private as were the forums. I was struggling to see them even after the rollback, but making them public solved the problem. This might be a solution here, although I think not as I’d of expected it to find the page but show nothing
