Hi there. Very strange one here. 

Forum has operated without any issue until today.

I have done alot of pinning and locking topics.

In member signup area people were getting this error:

Forum not set – Unable to create post Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /problem-with-post-edit-buttonome2/canv3071/public_html/wp-content/plugins/simple-press/sp-api/sp-api-primitives.php:59) in 

This forum, which I have now locked: 

http://www.dow2elite.com/forums-2/all-members-signups/member-signups-for-memberpage/

Was operating perfectly. Then people said they were getting that forum not set error above.

I made a new forum

http://www.dow2elite.com/forums-2/all-members-signups/important-read-first/

This works for some people, but not all. 

Now then what happened was, I made a new forum and group. Didnt work. Same error.

Then all of a sudden some people COULD post on the new forum but some cant.

Really weird and frustrating.. help!!!

I tracked it down to this, my members are saying

“Went to http://www.dow2elite.com/forums-2/new-members-sign-up-here/sign-up-here/ and I got the same damn message even if I successfully posted before!”

SuperPaul: I dont know, its inconsistent

SuperPaul: now I could post

So after alot of time and effort we have tracked it down to this:

SuperPaul: I think I might have isolated the stuff

SuperPaul: Whenever I posted a whole URL like http://steamcommunity.com/id/superpaul/ I got the error message

SuperPaul: but when I cut out the Http:// I could post it fine

To conclude, some members continued to have problems, some didnt. Very frustrating. 

I have a picture here of the error of one person when trying

[Image Can Not Be Found]

then in another instance people are able to post just fine when asked

okay, confused with all this…  is this a new problem or not – ie just start happening??

if url related, since all wp plugins will process the post content, do you have any plugins which do something with urls?  or themes?

easiest way to know for sure is temp switch to wp default theme… still issue?  disable other plugins and see if still problem… if not, renable one by one until occurs…
