Screen-Shot-2017-03-20-at-8.44.10-PM.pngHello 

I can’t seem to get rid of the admin “user has edited” notice that appears in the top of the forum for an admin. 

Does anyone know how to remove that from showing up? I have unchecked all the things in the admin area that would seem to make it show up. Also have disabled all plugins as well and its still there 

Thanks!

you remove those notices by clicking on the remove notice link for each message..

if you are asking how do you stop the notices from happening, visit forum – admins – global admin options and turn off the undesired ones…

ok yes I am asking how to stop the notices from showing up. I have unchecked everything at the global admin options and it keeps happening. Any ideas? Thanks 🙂

Can you just confirm as I am unable to replicate any problems here at the moment…

  1. You have unchecked ‘Display post/topic edit notices to users‘ and ‘Display post/topic move notices to users‘ and saved the changes.
  2. You have clicked on the ‘Remove’ link on any pre-existing notifications.

Correct? And when an edit or move operation takes place users are still notified? Is that also correct?

yes you are correct. I have done that. and the same notices keep popping up. I can’t get them to clear. every time I go to a page they are still there for both forum admins even after I click remove notice. I have cleared cache and tried different browsers etc. 

 

If it would help I can give you access to the backend of the site. Just let me know how I can securely send that to you.

 

thanks!

So the real problem seems to be that they are not deleting and that strongly points to a script conflict with either the WP theme or another plugin.

Can you open the browsers web console and with the console open, open a forum page and try the remove link. Let’s see if anything is displayed n the console.

If you do not know how to use the console to look for script errors there is a simple and quick guide here:

as Andy says, important to find any script conflicts cause they may present themselves in multiple ways…  but you could manually remove those notices in the database…  look for the table xxx_sfnotices (where xxx is your wpdb prefix) and remove any entries there…
