    @seco111

    I have gone as far and deactivating all my plugins except BBpress and my them 3clicks. even then participants and moderators can not reply or add topics. I also tried the plugin private groups and still nothing. This seems to incredibly simply! but I can not get it to work.

    Under users I have created 4 fake accounts (all my emails) and given them participant access but non of them can us the forum or reply to any topics.

    site name is Spanishscholars.com
    BBpress: 2.5.8
    WP : tried both 4.2.4 and 4.3 ( currently running 4.3)

    I created 2 test forums, they are not private. I also selected to check (Allow guest users without accounts to create topics and replies).

    Try a default theme. All plugins deactivate except only bbPress.

    I have no idea why you think private groups would help users to post, which should be in bbPress by default.

    Make sure you users have the participant role and not something like spectator. You can check their forum roles in Users > All users in the WordPress backend.

    ….figured out.

    I have been working in Firefox as an admin and looking at my site as a user in Explorer. the issue is only with explorer.

    Thanks,
