Several Issues with my Forum

    I have some issues with my forum at https://www.buzzie.info, where I also have your EMBEDS plugin installed

    ISSUE #1
    I have 3 users whose usernames start with “test”, and they are test49401238 and test8601792, and I have tried everything possible to delete them, but unsuccessfully so far. I suspect they are up to no good, so would you please tell me how to delete and block them.

    ISSUE #2
    When I “visit site” while still logged in as Admin, I no longer see the EDIT button on the front end like I used to, so I now always have to go to the forum dashboard to edit the forum(s).

    ISSUE #3
    Whenever I share a post (URL) from any other website, like Facebook, the shared post no longer includes any formatting, as if the html code on the original post has been erased by the sharing process. So the shared post, with all the formatting gone, has all the paragraphs and line spacing gone, and whatever is left is very hard to read as the paragraphs, sentences, words are all clumped up, and it looks messy.

    ISSUE #4
    When I edit a topic and add html code, only some, not all, of the html code works, but some do not, even while still inside the <body> and <html> tags.

    ISSUE #5
    Sometimes, when I share a topic from my forum to any website, like Facebook, I get a response from Facebook that my post is blank, empty, without any content, but only sometimes.

    ISSUE #6
    The categories no longer display in the same order as they were created, and some categories do not automatically show on the site and I very often have to look for specific categories. Related to this issue, how do I display ALL categories at once?

    The following are NOT issues, but are questions

    1. Can my forum be integrated into a full-blown wordpress social network, similar to Facebook, which uses bbpress integrated with buddy press – in other words, disable the built-in forum and replace it with my wpforo forum ?

    2. Is there a demo of wpdiscuz that I can see somewhere with buddy press integrated and will all the wpdiscuz add-ons installed?

    3. Re the wpforo showcase, can you suggest that those who post their forums in the showcase also include a list of their installed plugins.

    4. Do you recommend any specific theme for use with wpforo?

    Thank you.

    Hiu@manoman,

    I have 3 users whose usernames start with “test”, and they are test49401238 and test8601792, and I have tried everything possible to delete them, but unsuccessfully so far. I suspect they are up to no good, so would you please tell me how to delete and block them.

    Please read this doc, here is explained how to delete the members:

    https://wpforo.com/docs/root/members/member-manager/

    When I “visit site” while still logged in as Admin, I no longer see the EDIT button on the front end like I used to, so I now always have to go to the forum dashboard to edit the forum(s).

    Do you mean the “Admin Control Panel” feature? If so just enable the “Frontend Admin Control Panel” option. It’s located in the Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Features Tab.

    Whenever I share a post (URL) from any other website, like Facebook, the shared post no longer includes any formatting, as if the html code on the original post has been erased by the sharing process. So the shared post, with all the formatting gone, has all the paragraphs and line spacing gone, and whatever is left is very hard to read as the paragraphs, sentences, words are all clumped up, and it looks messy.

    Please check out wpForo Embeds addon:

    When I edit a topic and add html code, only some, not all, of the html code works, but some do not, even while still inside the <body> and <html> tags.

    You should use the source ( {:} ) button before inserting the HTML code.

    Sometimes, when I share a topic from my forum to any website, like Facebook, I get a response from Facebook that my post is blank, empty, without any content, but only sometimes.

    Please share a screenshot of the issue.

    The categories no longer display in the same order as they were created, and some categories do not automatically show on the site and I very often have to look for specific categories. Related to this issue, how do I display ALL categories at once?

    Please navigate to Dashboard > Forum > Dashboard admin page, click on the “Save forums order and hierarchy” button, then delete all caches and check again.

    Do you recommend any specific theme for use with wpforo?
