Hi,

I have 5 groups created on my site. 4 of them are hidden, and one is private.When I go into one of my groups and click on the group forum tab, I can post topics there, no problem.

However, the Forums tab at the top of the page doesn’t seem to like anything I do. There are no topics shown there, and I can’t create any.

Any ideas?

1. Which version of WP/MU are you running? —– WP 3.0, not MU, created a network instead following the guidelines provided by WP
2. Did you install WP/MU as a directory or subdomain install? —– Don’t have MU, just WPBP as a directory install
3. If a directory install, is it in root or in a subdirectory? —– subdirectory (i think)
4. Did you upgraded from a previous version of WP/MU? If so, from which version? —– 2.9.2 (it’s a brand new installation, only 2 days old)
5. Was WP/MU functioning properly before installing/upgrading BuddyPress (BP)? e.g. permalinks, creating a new post, commenting. —– see above
6. Which version of BP are you running? —– 1.2.5.2
7. Did you upgraded from a previous version of BP? If so, from which version? —– no
8. Do you have any plugins other than BuddyPress installed and activated? If so, which ones? —– yes, here’s the list:
Akismet
BP Blog Author Profile Link
BuddyPress Album+
BuddyPress Follow
BuddyPress Group Email Subscription
BuddyPress Like
BuddyPress Profile Privacy
Fast and Secure Contact Form
Invite Anyone
One Quick Post
TinyMCE Advanced
Welcome Pack
9. Are you using the standard BuddyPress themes or customized themes? —– Buddypress Default 1.2.5.2
10. Have you modified the core files in any way? —– No
11. Do you have any custom functions in bp-custom.php? —– no
12. If running bbPress, which version? Or did your BuddyPress install come with a copy of bbPress built-in? —– allowed BP to install built-in version
13. Please provide a list of any errors in your server’s log files. —– don’t know how to get those
14. Which company provides your hosting? —– Super Green Hosting
15. Is your server running Windows, or if Linux; Apache, nginx or something else? —– Apache

Thanks,
Helene

OK, no problem everyone, I’ve figured it out. I just had to disable Global Forum Directory in BuddyPress –> Settings, and now the tab is gone too. Pity, I’d prefer to have that enabled, and see all the topics. Dilemma is that it’d be really great to have that global forum directory I think, we’d just have to change our groups from private to public, and I don’t know if we want to do that.
