Can't post, reply- if 'add new' topic, can't select forum

  • norcalmilsim.com/forum

    I have login synchronized with WP and bbPress.

    The only option I have as Admin / Keymaster or my account McGee / Administrator is to ‘Add New’ in the ‘Latest Discussions’ topic section.

    I do get a new window and can enter a title and content, but can’t select one of the two forum for the topic. When I click ‘Send Post’ the next page says ‘This topic has been closed’ every time.

    There are no other options to add, rely or create anything new.

    All I have been able to do is edit a post as the Admin.

    I’ve uninstalled, because now I can’t login to my WP dashboard… Will try again.

    Could be the User Access Manager plug-in?

    I uninstalled bbPress, no immediate change in access, then started uninstalling ‘Event Manager’ – within a few seconds I could get into the Dashboard… Probably access was possible with only un-installing bbPress.

    == Loss of Admin Access ==

    It is possible (most likely during REVERSE integration) for admin access to be lost on the bbPress or WordPress side after you integrate a new install. This is because the role of keymaster is stored in the user-meta and if you have gone from BB_USERS to WP_USERS (and BB_USERMETA to WP_USERMETA) , suddenly there is no longer a level set for the user. So the password/login will work but not admin access.

    Fixing this requires the role to be inserted back in the usermeta. This used to require editing the table (ie. with PHPMYADMIN) but I also created a basic plugin to handle the most basic case. Note it requires the keymaster to be user #1. If not, you will have to “hand edit”.
