Sorry to hear of the problem you are having.
I have tested it on my test site and it’s working fine for me using latest version of bbPress plugin.
Are you getting it on visiting the following URL where you have to replace yoursite.com with your site domain?
http://yoursite.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=forum
Try deactivating and reactivating bbPress plugin.
This can be due to plugin conflict on your site so please try temporary deactivating all plugins except bbPress plugin and see whether everything works fine and then enable the plugins one by one to see which plugin is conflicting if any.
Thanks for the suggestions. No luck though.
When I visited the URL you suggested with yoursite.com replaced with my site domain I got the following error message: ‘Sorry, you are not allowed to edit posts in this post type.’
I was logged into my site at the time.
I tried deactivating and reactivating bbPress plugin. Nothing changed.
I tried deactivating all plugins. Nothing changed.
I tried reactivating each plugin and nothing changed.
I had this problem before and solved by updating the bbPress plugin. Things worked for a while and then one day (without any changes to the site) the forum access on the admin menu disappeared.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks!
I just discovered that forum access on the menu appears again if I use chrome. On firefox it is not there.
Please try clearing your browser cache.
Tried it. Didn’t change anything.
If you are using any browser extension then try disabling it.
Make sure you are using latest version of browser.
I’m not using a browser extension and I’m using the latest version of browser.
Now the forum access via the wordpress admin menu has disappeared even when I’m using Chrome. Still gone when using Firefox. Any other suggestions?
Thanks!
