Is anyone else having cookie problems on the BP site?
I can only login to one part of the BP site at a time (main BP site vs. forums).
Fixed now.
Andy upgraded to WPMU 2.8.1 without changing the cookie version in bbPress.
Let that be a lesson to all of you!
Thank you Sam!
Had a feeling it was something to do with the auth cookie!
Hmm, I just logged in via the main site, and it still asked me to log in to post on the forums.
Ditto here.
I flushed my buddypress.org cookies and dumped my cache too.
I swear I did this but here goes again (test).
I have just had the same problem but followed the workaround listed in the thread above which worked.
If you can’t post in the forums:
1. Log out.
2. Come back to the forums, select the forum you want to post in.
3. Scroll to the bottom of the page, and hit the “Log In” link.
4. Log in.
5. You should be able to post.
FYI this problem is still not properly fixed.
workaround got me to post, thanks DJPaul!
On a somewhat related note, looks like my original account blackarbor has gone MIA and says its not even in the DB for password retrieval, yet I can login but now my name is different and I have no posts to this account (and lost all my fav’d posts).
Is there any way to recover my old profile? Or better yet, why has it gone MIA in the first place?
That’s a good question. Can you login with your old account on any other *press website? bbpress.org, wordpress.org, etc?
Nope blackarbor doesn’t exist at all anymore. And I had several threads started for support that I was following for bugs…
Re-stickying this because this issue still occurs.
Log out, then log in with this form and try to post if you are having issues:
https://buddypress.org/forums/bb-login.php
I could not post the last time so checking if the if the steps work………………………and it worked
Workaround (logging out, find forum, logging in etc) worked for me.
Thanks!
Same here: work-around, well, worked… cheers! See you in NYC.
Testing….if this works I would just like to say thansk to Andy for helping me get in, but the problem is still happening obviously LOL
hopefully i can see my post now, otherwise i need to confirm that the problem is still there
edit:
yes, now it works
Akismet can sometimes be a little over sensitive, so taking the bad with the good means some false positives from time to time.
If you’re having issues on BuddyPress.org with your posts or topics going rogue, send myself or another moderator a PM and I’ll make them appear again. If it’s an urgent topic let me know on Twitter: @johnjamesjacoby
Also, do this too.
just a test to check if my posts are still blocked..
edit: All is good. Thanks!
ABC
Edit: It finally worked! Many thanks to John James Jacoby for helping me out!
