Strange error

I’ve been coming across this error pretty often when I’m replying to a topic in my forums:

“Forum not set – unable to create post.”

Members have been encountering the same message. What could be setting this off?

any caching plugins?  or security plugins or server modules such as mod_security?

There is this one, but I’m not sure what it does exactly (I believe my web developer installed it):

Secure XML-RPC
More secure wrapper for the WordPress XML-RPC interface.

My cache plugin is not active at this time. What do you mean by server modules?

server settings would be apache module or other, like mod_security…  can do a phpinfo() to see or ask your host…

did you try with the xml-rpc plugin disabled?

this message typically comes when something is interferring with the query args of urls… something intercepting them…
