Issue after signing in as a member after update

Hi 

 

I am having an issue on bushcraft.social which is viewable without logging in but once logged in as a standard member all non admin posts are blank.

 

If an admin logs in all is viewable this only affects standard members. Any advice welcome.

Did you update your SP theme as well? And after you did (or do) can you go to the forum admin > toolbox > housekeeping and clear the CSS cache IF you have it turned on….

OK – if the theme has been updated and the cache reset – only two other possibilities come immediately to mind. And this depends on whether the space for the post os present or if not!

I do notice that your WP theme is having an impact on showing some data and making it invisible. If this were the case here then simply tryign to select text in a post would show you whether it is indfeed there or not.

The more likely candidate is that the permission ‘Can view only own posts and admin/mod posts’ has been turned on for the permission set your members are using. So I would check that first. The obvious logic against this is that you would surely remember doing this. We have not touched that data during an upgrade for several releases now – possibly over a year. But take look anyway.

If all fails then it might be useful if I can get to see it for myself so if you could make a members account we could look. if so then please PM credentials to both myself, to ‘Mr Papa’ and to ‘Ike’. Please include in the PM a link to your site, a link to this thread and brief reminder of the problem. And one of us will take a look for you.

Hey Rob,

Glad we could help out. As for the other issue, is that the same one we talked about here? I take it you did make that a child theme and didn’t just add the code on to the bottom of the css-only stylesheet?

This really is bad, exactly the same as before – It seems as though your theme is riddled with !important’s.. Again this means the themes CSS is going to interfere with any plugin CSS indefinitely. In this case the overriding rule is coming from your themes:

body.dark-skin a:hover

This means any plugin that uses it’s own CSS class for a:hover will automatically have to use your themes selection of white, and it’s a very common rule!

To fix this, you can add something like:

#spMainContainer a.spButton {
    color: #4C5D77 !important;
}

To your child themes stylesheet. All this is doing is making sure that your themes button colour takes precedence.

Hi lke

 

this is a whole new kettle of fish to me frown  is this what you mean to edit ? 

@import url(‘../sahifa/style.css’);

h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 {
color: #f6f6f6 !important;
font-family: ‘BebasNeueRegular’ !important;

I would probably just stick to adding the CSS I provided above to your css-only forum child theme stylesheet, the same as we did in the other thread.

The reason being unless you have a child theme set up for your WordPress theme you will loose those changes next time your WP theme updates.

No problem! Was it not yourself I spoke with the other day in the other thread?

Yes you should be able to use the CSS editor for this, just make sure you include the closing bracket as you’ve missed it off there, not sure if that’s just a result of copy and paste though..

#spMainContainer a.spButton {
    color: #4C5D77 !important;
}

Then does it all work OK?

No problem, glad it all works!..

Like I said though, make sure your rule has a closing brace ‘ } ‘ at the end –  as it does in the CSS I posted (on line 3 of the code block). Twice what you’ve posted hasn’t, but like I said not sure if that’s a result of you copying and pasting it from your custom CSS box.

If it doesn’t have a closing brace, anything you add after it will be invalid.
