    So, this is one of the most interesting and well made plugins to fight with log-in abuse or spammers in guest comments, but still. There’s massive issue with another very cool plugin – WPforo.
    Users can’t add posts, comments or other things, as everything in this plugin is blocked by WP Armour, even admins are blocked, but still, their posts and comments are passed through.

    If user is adding new post or comment – it will be blocked with secret message that I put in WP Armour settings. That’s bad. Very bad. But if admin do so, he will also see this message and message will pass through when page is refreshed.

    As I see, WPforo is not described as supported, sadly it cause issues with comments on the forum 🙁

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi,

    Is this the plugin you are referring to? https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpforo/

    Currently, we don’t have official support for it. However, we will add it to our integration list, and if we find suitable hooks and actions to work with, we will consider integrating it in a future release.

    Best regards,

    Thanks for answer. Yes, it’s about WPForo you linked above.
    Most of the forums system works nice with WPArmour, but adding posts or comments (replies) cause issues – it’s blocked by this addon. It’s not very irritating, but it does bother and surprise users. The solution can always be an option in the plugin to bypass a specific link and everything related to it – for example /forum as user still must use login/register form that is protected 🙂
