Hello. My site has been working fine with MemberPress and bbPress for over a year. When a user goes to the forums page and are not logged in, they get a message stating they must log in to view the content. Just recently, when I go to the forums page, I get the message “Oh, bother! No forums were found here.” and no login form. Rule is correct in MemberPress, that if a user is not logged in, a login form should appear. When I deactivate bbPress, the form shows correctly. Please help!

I have the exact same issue.
Any page that has a bbpress forum shortcode on it, the memberpress login does not appear on it and the forum does, even if the user is not logged in.

All content on the protected page shows as well as the forum…

I had to made sure the topics under Forums were all set to private, and then in Memberpress > Rules set up the Access Conditions, and then at the bottom, toggle on show login form for those not logged in.

Added this to my theme functions file:

// Adding function to block page content for any pages containing bbpress shortcodes.
add_filter(‘mepr-pre-run-rule-content’, ‘do_block_the_content’, 99, 3);

function do_block_the_content($block, $current_post, $uri) {
$block = 1;
return $block;
}
It seems to be doing what I want, but we’ll see.

I tried some of those steps.

But looking at the MemberPress plugin code, it looks like no matter what the [bbp-forum-index] shortcode would not trigger a login form.
And not only for that shortcode, but it exposed all content on the entire page to a non logged in user.

I’ll play around with your suggestion some more as I don’t like the thought of overriding the memberpress plugin filters like this.

Thanks
