Reply To: Cannot login to bbPress forum
Where do I add those lines of code?
It is CSS put it in your child themes style.css file, a custom css plugin, or anywhere you can put custom css.
I assume you want me to edit one of the PHP files
No, never edit the plugin core files, unless you are 100% sure you know what you are doing. Since you are a novice, just do not do it.
I don’t know what “multisite” is.
Since you do not know what it is, I am going to assume you do not have it. You do not need it to solve this issue so no need to install any plugins, just curious if you have it. I see it is probably that you have a test enviroment of WordPress because you are planning on migrating to a WordPress/bbPress install from phpBB.
Yes, your deleteme user does appear in the Users list.
Does it have the Participant forum role too?
Alright, so I assume you’re talking about Peter’s Login Redirect plugin, and I assume I’ll need to edit the settings under Settings -> Login/logout redirects, correct?
You seem to be getting that together. Not sure why you are redirecting to the forums especially a specific forum, but yeah you got it.
I created a test Subscriber user, which in fact is redirected upon logging in, but isn’t logged in (of course that code you recommended still needs added in).
The code I gave you helped remove the bullet list displaying in your forums.
Again thank you for trying to help Robkk, but I would definitely like it if you could be a bit more descriptive in what I need to do to fix this login problem
We still have to troubleshoot what is causing the user to not seem to be have access to the forums.
Try some of these troubleshooting steps listed in this guide to see if it could be theme/custom theme related like if you copied the bbPress customizable templates into your child theme and edited them and messed something up on accident, check to see if a plugin could be causing an issue, you can check to see if caching could be an issue by flushing cache from your site, if you edited the bbPress and ever do not remember what you edited you can reinstall a fresh version of the plugin to see if it fixes the issue also.
Do not just go deleting cache files from WordPress or code in bbPress.
