Okay and I’ve also got some weird things happening too:
– If a member signs up for a free account on my site, they are automatically assigned the regular WP ‘subscriber’ role. These members can use the forums normally, and when they now post, they have the word ‘member’ assigned under their avatar.
– If a user pays for membership and gets an S2 Member level, they can’t see any forums, they just get a 404.
Now if I go into these members profiles in the backend, i can assign their ‘forum role’ from the drop down to something like ‘Participant’.
They still keep their S2 level, but can now also use forums.
1. Why can’t we assign them as ‘members’ like normal FREE users who are assigned that tag. It doesn’t appear in the forum role drop down menu in the edit user screen.
2. Bizarrely I have a couple of accounts that although are FREE accounts with the usual WP ‘subscriber’ role assigned, they can’t actually post.
They can see the forums, type a response and post it, but it doesn’t appear anywhere.
Pretty bizarre. Would be cool to get a good explanation of how this new dynamic role process works.
Cheers JJ 🙂
