I updated to WordPress 4.3 last night. I’m using bbPress 2.5.8, and the theme is Sprout. It’s at http://www.stacknfade.com/forum

After the WP update, the forum is only visible when logged out EXCEPT with the admin account. Only the admin can see the forum when logged in. All other accounts get a 404 error when visiting that URL. Also, when viewing WP-Admin, none of the forum options are available in the admin main sidebar, e.g., Tools -> Forums, or Settings -> Forums. These are missing.

Help?

Try some troubleshooting. I am thinking a possible plugin issue with the menu items. The forums only being visible to Admin is the tricky one I can’t really pinpoint.

Weird. I deactivated all plugins except for bbPress, saw that the forum issue was fixed, then reactivated all plugins again, one by one. I was expecting to isolate a plugin that was causing the issue, but after reactivating all of them, the problem no longer exists.

Strange. Thanks for the tip.

Huh? Weird…

Well glad you solved your own mysterious issue.
