Reply To: “This Plugin needs BBpress to work, pls. install it first and activate.”
Hello I have been looking at this for a number of days.
I reactivated plugins one by one and then a couple of people successfully posted, then two or three more couldn’t post then one did.
My bizarre theory is that it has something to do with a bbpress update quite a while ago. I already had Buddypress for two or three years with every member of my community manually given a basic S1 level when I created their account (so additional info was password-protected). When I added the recommended bbPress to develop a forum, I noted that only a number of my more active members got the status “Participants”, the numbers seem to reflect a few active users out of my total pool of users. It wasn’t automatic that everyone was assigned the Participant status, especially if they had never logged in. I assumed that it came from them reading forum/bbPress generated pages.
Since the beginning of the year, this has changed; everybody but the three Admins have been marked as a participants – 30% of these have never even logged in to my Buddypress environment, have never even reacted to the initial password email. The term ‘participant’ in a sense has become meaningless to me as an admin, because it tells me nothing any more.
I have to investigate there’s an ‘arrival date’ relationship with those who have posted and those who can’t.
