Cross Posting OFF and No Forum Choices for Certain Usergroup

Chris Rieman · 2024-01-21T05:55:18Z

Im running into an issue I cant figure out. Blog Cross Posting is showing in Add New Post just fine and propagates to WPForo fine. The synch works with comments and everything. Perfect. I just select the appropriate Blog Cross Post forum in the drop-down in Add New Post page and Im off to the races. But this only seems to be working for my own user and usergroup which is an Admin usergroup. When I test with another usergroup such as Author which can also create new posts, the Blog Cross Post box shows up in the New Post editor, but only "TURNED OFF" is the choice and the normal drop-down list of all my WPForo forums are not listed. This seems to be some sort of usergroup priv situation but I have looked everywhere to try to figure out where its turned on and an missing is. I am using MemberPress and User Role Editor but I dont think these are involved as this is in the WP side with New Post. Nevertheless I poked around there too and found nothing obvious. Im thinking its perhaps a Blog Cross Post permissions flag by usergroup setting but Im not finding it in the WPAdmin. Must be something simple, but I am definitely missing it! Help.

OK thanks. That seemed to resolve the drop-down issue for that UserGroup, though it now provides the Author with what I would deem "Administrative rights" which is to add Forums on the top floating WP Admin toolbar ("Forum Dashboard>Forums>Add New Forum>") which is not their area of intended privilege.

Perhaps if there is no workaround there's a plugin to hide "Forum Dashboard" for this UserGroup? Hmmm....
