404 error for non logged in users for Private forum homepage

Hi,

I’ve read through a lot of other similar support questions as this, but haven’t found an answer. When a non logged in user clicks on the menu link for the forum on our site, “404 page not found error” is thrown. I can not figure out how to get it to show the wordpress page that has text to tell the user to login or register to view the forum.

bbPress version: 2.5.4
WordPress version: 4.1.1
using Weaver Xtreme theme
http://sirenspaddlingclub.org/wp/
“SirensBB” is the forum

Any help would be much appreciated!!

I presume you’ve followed the set up guide in the documentation

What does it say? It is a simple wordpress site (the url I sent). The root site is basic css and html. I receive no errors other than the one I’m seeking help with. Can someone else look at this topic and help me out? Thank you.

this is the forum archive that you were trying to link to in the menu right??

http://sirenspaddlingclub.org/wp/sirens-bb/

or were you trying to link to a specific forum

Yes, that is correct. It works if you are logged in, but gives that error if you are not. The url looks malformed (to me) when I get the error page: http://sirenspaddlingclub.org/wp/sirens-bb/forum/sirens-bb/ but I can’t figure out where to fix that. I’ve deleted and readded it via the wp menu process.
