Fresh install...

#2 New group created with permissions

#3 New forum created inside group...

#4 Front end New Topic submitted

#5 Upon loading the new topic after submitting it.  It shows the title and a blank post.  If you quote that post or edit that post, what you wrote in the post content is evidently in there, it just doesn't show up to readers like it should.

 

Is this something anybody has experienced before??

Is there a server-side config that is missing to cause this behavior?

Is it maybe a theme related thing?  Maybe a jquery conflict?

I should add that viewing the html source, the content of the post isn't loading apparently.  So I don't think it's a CSS issue that's hiding it.

A couple of things you can check. If using a WP caching plugin make sure that it is turned off for the forum pages. If the forum is cached then you could be displaying old information. See Forum Displays Wrong Information too.

Also you could try turning off the combined CSS if it a matter that the post is there but not displayed properly as discussed here. https://simple-press.com/suppo.....t-version/

Thanks for your response.

I checked both links.  I don't have any caching plugin installed (although not a bad idea for down the road), so that's not it.

I checked the css options as noted in the thread linked.  Everything is disabled on the options panel.

I looked at the source via firebug, and the content is not there at all.  When I look at the source through firebug on this forum, it shows the content of the topic and replies.  On mine, it doesn't.  On mine, the div class spPostContent is empty.

I tried installing it on another wp install I have just to see (on the same hosting server).  The same results.  Everything's fine apparently except the spPostContent is coming back empty.  Editing it, or quoting it confirms that whatever was typed is recorded in the database, it's just not showing up on the view only side of things.

Are you saying you can replicate this on a different site altogether? And if so is this site basically a duplicate? I.e., same WP theme, same plugins etc?

I think the first thing I need is to ask for a link to a topic with 'missing' posts display.

I would also ask you to take a look in the forum admin > Toolbox > error log. The best thing to do is to clear am yentries if there are any and then run the forum page with posts and then check the error log. Are there any actual errors?

Yes, it's a different site all together, but it's on the same server.  They're both using different themes, few overlapping plugins.

The forum isn't ready for use yet.  I am working on getting it ready.

Error log is empty

Give it a go...  I can't figure it out.

Very weird...
OK - what are the overlapping plugins please? And do any of them have any impact on blog post content?

Insert PHP was the culprit.

Thanks so much for your help in helping me think through this.  I couldn't figure it out.  Now I just have to find another solution for what I was using that plugin for :) .

 

Thanks!

Good find.

If you were using it to enable the use of php code in posts etc., then I can tell you that the plugin 'Exec PHP' works fine with SP as we use it here on this site.
