A number of my forum users have reported issues with posting for several months.

They submit a post, but it doesn’t appear or show.

But they don’t receive an error message.

Has anyone had this happen to them previously?

[@tinkerbill Participant 5 years ago]

Yes, I’ve had this recently. One of our users posted a series of test replies to a topic. Some of them appeared as normal, but about half just vanished into thin air, with no feedback at all.

Obviously keen to get to the bottom of this 😐

Hello all,

A lot of the forumusers on my website are experiencing this problem now. No matter the type of browser, history, time on page, operating system etc.

The text is filled in, the send button is clicked and the text is gone without a post appearing.

Does anyone have a fix for this??

Hello all,

Did anybody get any wiser on this topic by any change? A recent update seemingly fixed the problem only to discover that the problem returned.

I’m also exploring the option of the problem being started when entering the forum through an (e-mail) link.

Hope to hear if others are still experiencing the problem

Hi, I solved this problem by adding this to my bbpress-functions.php
add_filter( 'bbp_bypass_check_for_moderation', '__return_true' );

The problem is that bbpress is sending the posts to moderation but it doesn’t show any advice to the user or admins. I don’t know why 🤷‍♂️

Hope it helps

see dashboard>settings>discussion>comment moderation

usually it is the number of links

Where would I put my bbpress-functions.php file, as I don’t seem to currently have one? Would this go in theme root?

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years, 6 months ago]

Put this in your child theme’s function file –

ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

or use
