We use both WishList Member and our Blog Linking plugin on this site with no apparent problem so the qyick answer is no - there is no conflict.

Now I am not a WishList expert by a long way but might this have anything to do with the way you are using WishList? I admit that we have only used it here, i believe, for posts that are NOT private or subject to membership but are open for all to read. Could that be the difference?

If I recall correctly we protect just two pages. All of our standard 'blog' posts are public. This isn't really what we use WishList for on this site...

I already understood what was happening and was really just awaiting a definitive answer to my question in post 2 above. However, now I see from your video that indeed the post in question is being protected by WishList so I have to assume WL is stopping us from creating the forum topic and post. Which is the only logical explanation I think.

I can't find a filter call in WishList that might account for it but I really do not know, of course, just what they do and how they intercept the post during the save process.

We can try one thing if you fancy trying put a small edit to the plugin code?

OK - I must start right out by saying I do not know if this will make any difference. It really depends, as I said earlier, on how WishList s intercepting the post. But we can try it and see.

So the file is in the forum-plugins location and by default that would be:

/wp-content/sp-resources/forum-plugins/blog-linking/sp-linking-plugin.php

Locate this block - fairly near the top:

add_action('save_post',                     'sp_linking_save_blog_link');
add_action('draft_to_publish',                'sp_linking_publish_blog_link', 10, 1);
add_action('future_to_publish',                 'sp_linking_publish_blog_link', 10, 1);
add_action('pending_to_publish',            'sp_linking_publish_blog_link', 10, 1);
add_action('new_to_publish',                 'sp_linking_publish_blog_link', 10, 1);

and change it to:

add_action('save_post',                     'sp_linking_save_blog_link', 1);
add_action('draft_to_publish',                'sp_linking_publish_blog_link', 1, 1);
add_action('future_to_publish',                 'sp_linking_publish_blog_link', 1, 1);
add_action('pending_to_publish',            'sp_linking_publish_blog_link', 1, 1);
add_action('new_to_publish',                 'sp_linking_publish_blog_link', 1, 1);

as I say - worth a try!
