Hi
I was running a test today and found that I can't delete a member, although it's possible to deactivate one. If I go to my WP Admin page then 'wpForo' > 'Members' and try to delete a member from there, the admin page jumps to 'Users' > 'All Users', and it shows an error message;
#wpForo
There has been a critical error on this website. Please check your site admin email inbox for instructions.
If I try to delete a member from the WP 'All Users' page, I receive the same message.
From the email I received telling me of the error (details copied below), there seems to be a conflict with Elementor/Pro.
Anyone got any ideas?

Great, thanks.
I've contacted them and tried Elementor 'Safe Mode' and deactivating all plugins except Elementor/Pro but there's no change.
As expected, Elementor were no help. As soon as they see that a third-party plugin is involved, they close the case!
The only way I can get it to work is by deactivating Elementor, deleting the member/user, then activating Elementor.
Please note, wpForo uses WordPress functions for deleting users. In other words, user deletion is managed by WordPress. So this issue doesn't have any relation to the wpForo plugin.
Okay, thanks.
I added a new user directly from WP Admin (i.e. not through wpForo membership) and I had the same problem.
If I deactivate Elementor/Pro I can delete the user so it seems like the problem is with their plugin.
I'll get in touch with them again and let you know if they're any help (unlikely!).
