Thank you for letting us know.

There are the following reasons for the issue:

  1. The topics are private, those topics are visible only for the topic creator and high-level users, such as admins, moderators, etc. 
  2. Guests don't have permission to view the topics/posts. Please read this FAQ, it'll allow you to understand wpForo Usergroups and Forum Accesses. 
  3. Those topics/posts are anapproved. I'd suggest you read this article: https://gvectors.com/how-to-disable-topics-and-posts-moderation/

I replicated the problem and have done some testing together with the user which suggests that the problem lies with a cache not being used or cleared correctly somewhere but I don't seem to be able to get any further - we use Cloudflare as a CDN with Automatic Platform Optimization enabled but despite disabling this, clicking Delete All Caches in wpForo and clearing browser caches the problem remains. Has anyone else seen this behaviour?
