Hi nando4

This will be fixed in next 1.4.5 version.

I am having a similar 'anonymous user' problem. It appears when a post is awaiting moderation and is being listed in the topics list area. Any fixes suggested?

This is what I currently see on the forum:

Is this a bug?

This is seepage of a new user’s (< 5 posts) post awaiting moderation. It shouldn't appear listed so yes, a forum software bug. I'll report it.

Problem is solved.

don't know if the caches, logout and in, reset user permissions or updates off wordpress did the job.

only thing is that I have two posts that can't be removed, because they can't be opened

The user posted earlier whitout problems. She is the only one to have the problem and she has the same permissions as the rest of the members. Zo I don't think that is the problem.

I reset her permissions and let het log-out. I hope the problem is solved when she logs in again.

Any idea how to remove the "anonymous" topics that can not be opened?

I think the user permission is wrongly configured. Please edit this user and check WordPress Role and wpForo Usergroup. Also make sure the Usergroup is attached to Standard Access for all forums.

Hi,

I have a strange thing.

A registered user wants to open a topic. She does that, types here stories and then wants to submit it. She gets an error message that 'the posting didn't workout.

A topic is created white the topic name by Anonymous (not her name).

You can't open the topic and also can't delete it

Under recent topics her name is by the topic.

What can be the problem?
