Still has 5 years old bug/error

  • Update:
    This forum still has 5 years old bug (as I’ve seen post regarding this that are 5 years old) where it gives the error 404 for all links. This is due to mod_rewrite not configured correct on the webserver.

    My review is still a 1 start as I think it’s very poor that you did not fix an issue that has been known for 5 years. It’s not user friendly and for me that what WP is all about.

    Note that I’ll be more than happy to change my review once it has been fixed.

    Hi @conde1,
    Thank you for the review. Believe me this error is just a result of wrong configuration, or you’ve enabled the “Turn WordPress to wpForo” option, which disables all posts and page on the front-end only leaving the forum. You should read this option description before enabling it: https://wpforo.com/docs/root/getting-started/forum-page/turn-wordpress-to-wpforo/

    If this is not the case, then this is a permalink configuration issue. We can help you find the reason and fix it very easy. This problem has nothing to do with wpForo, just open a support topic and let us find the real problem maker for you.

    The review section is not a good place for support, so please contact as via support[at]gvectors.com email address or open a new support topic here: https://www.ads-software.com/support/plugin/wpforo/

    We’re waiting for your topic…
    Thank you!

    Hi there, I found the error and it was due to URL rewirte not enabled on the webserver. I know this is not your fault but you should test for this in you installation script. I know there is multiple ways to test this from PHP.

    @conde1,
    Thank you for the update. Believe me there are more than one hundred things in server configuration that can be checked by a plugin, the “URL rewrite” is enabled on 99.9% hosting servers, so we only check the ones with less percent. That’s why wpForo has a documentation and the first section is the Server Requirements: https://wpforo.com/docs/root/wpforo-installation/server-requirements/

    We’ve created this doc for you to make sure you install wpForo on a correct configured server. And here is the information that you should have read:

    I hope you’ll consider changing your review.
    Thank you in advance and happy holidays!
