Hi,

After updating to 2.5 i found that with different themes, all but 2 plugins active (bbPress and bbPress Protected Forums) that ANYONE could make a topic although topic creation was locked to non-Admins and everyone but me is set to participant or spectator. Does anyone else have this problem or does anyone else use something similar?

(also where do i go to download 2.4? all the links i’ve seen point to 2.5)

I am not familiar with ‘bbPress Protected Forums’ plugin, it might be best to also ask the question in their support forums https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bbpress-protected-forums

You can find older versions of bbPress to download here https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress/developers/

OMG thank you Stephen! I updated our 2.4.1 to 2.5, and ended up with a messy tree with bullet points -I am not sure if it was something I needed to fix or whether it wasnt compatible with our theme. We use Twenty Twelve child so I thought it would be ok.
I was not confident in applying the patch – not very IT savvy.So I was searching for a way to roll us back to the earlier version to make them functional until I figure out what I need to do to make the 2.5 update work for us – thank you for the links!
Our forums are back to normal for now.

@netweb Thank you for the link. Sometimes plugin issues cause my frustration levels to get so high that i may miss something in front of me.
