wpForo 1.x.x [Solved] Guest Posting

cll321 · 2016-08-22T16:26:18Z

I'm having trouble allowing guests to post in my forums. My forums are configured to give guests "Standard Access", and that access level is set to permit them to add topics, comments, etc. When you try to create a topic when not logged in, however, nothing happens. (The "Add Topic" button is there and looks clickable, but no reaction when clicked.) When you try to reply to an existing comment as a guest, the little spinning blue "Working" dots show up, but it just hangs there and never goes anywhere.Can wpForo be configured to permit guest posts? If so, is there a unexpected/less than obvious setting that needs to be set? I've been through everything a few times and can't figure out where I'm going wrong.Thanks

Thanks for the super-quick reply, Robert! You know what I think it is? I had changed the forum category permissions so that Guests had "Read Only" permissions, but I didn't realize that I needed to individually change all of the sub-forums' permissions as well. I just tested it with one and got the pop-up message. Will implement across the board.

Thanks

Hello WPForo,

is there any progress in discussed topics about allowing post reply to "Guests"?

Thank you.

I'm sorry but no yet. We'll work on this next month.

In case you want to say thank you !)
We'd really appreciate and be thankful if you leave a good review on plugin page. This is the best way to say thank you to this project and support team.

I am trying to make it so my guest can post as well. Any up date on this? Right now when you click reply a circle comes up and just keeps spinning. It dose not even prompted them to make a log in like it dose on here. If we could at lest have it prompted them to log in like it dose on here for now that would be great.
