Hello,
I am having the exact same problem.
2 weeks ago I had downloaded the forum and was able to have others test it and it worked fine without anybody having to register.
However, now that is not the case. I have gone to forum settings and made sure that I unclicked the ‘anonymous posting’ box, making it possible for anybody to post (Theoretically).
I have also gone to the “Discussions” settings and unclicked the box “users must be logged in and registered to comment).
Originally when I uploaded the forum, people who replied had to enter their name, email and optionally their website. That was fine. Where did it go? I can’t recall if there has been an upgrade since then.
My site is http://www.cclhdn.org and you can see “MEMBER FORUM” on the top menu (far right).
I use Suffusion theme, and have also recently dowloaded Askimet and bbPressCaptcha. However, the problem was there before I did this. Also, I can’t figure out how to use bbpressCaptcha with bbPress, but maybe that will come when people can actually respond.
I would really appreciate some help with this, I’ve been trying to fix this for about 3 days now and need it to be done by the time of a newsletter launch this Thurs!
Thanks,
Rebecca
