Hi,

another report from my users. When someone adds a new Forum post it does not appear in the Newsfeed of their friends. The checkbox to publish it is set in Newsfeed plugin settings. This started from version 1.7.3.

Theme: Macabre

Does anyone face same problem?

Then I do not understand what's happened with my installation. There are series of problems after update.. maybe I may somehow check all the files if they are correctly updated?

turn your debug on and post in the forum and then check the newsfeed and see if any errors show up.

No errors.

But let me clarify a bit:

New post in forum is appearing in Newsfeed.
But reply to the post thread in forum does not appear in the Newsfeed.

Dave can you check this on your installation?

Ilja, can you please PM me cpanel and admin access details? I'll take a look at the issue. As we cannot reproduce that on our side as well. 


Also what about 


Forum topic replies

Ilja, can you please go to your phpmyadmin to ow_base_config table and find disabled_action_types column, what do you have as a value for this config?

Ross: 

{"create:user_join":true,"create:user_edit":true,"create:avatar-change":true,"create:user-comment":true,"*:friend_add":true,"create:forum-topic":true,"forum-post:forum-topic":true}

Ilja, is that all you have there?

Can you click on the value field, it should expand and show more content?

Ilja

Ross, Yes, this is all I have (if you mentioned row with name = disabled_action_types and key = newsfeed).


Maybe these items should be false?

Ross.


It seems I fixed the problem somehow. I've disabled and enabled forum items in Newsfeed module settings. And found that your mentioned parameter has changed to


{"create:user_join":true,"create:user_edit":true,"create:avatar-change":true,"create:user-comment":true,"*:friend_add":true,"*:group":true,"*:link":true,"*:video_comments":true,"create:forum-topic":true,"forum-post:forum-topic":true,"*:event":true,"*:photo_comments,*:multiple_photo_upload":true,"*:profile-cover":true,"*:question":true,"*:blog-post":true,"*:birthday":true}


Afterwards forum replies started appearing on a newsfeed.

Seems like some caching occurred. Glad you resolved your issue and thanks for letting us know.
