[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

It means wpForo doesn't work on your website or it conflicts with other plugins. If you don't have important information in forum, I'd recommend Uninstall (not just deactivate) wpForo then install it again. Then disable other plugins and delete all caches before testing it again.

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 have the opposite problem. I would NOT want guests to publish anything: if they want to do so, they sign up.
I've done some simulations with nicknames and fake emails and the messages end up in moderation. Useless work. I have the latest release of WPforo (1.6.0). How can I prevent it all? Among the guests, they are defined as read-only in the usergroup table.
Thank you. Roberto
