Block filters not working unless logged in

Posted in: Newspaper

I am experiencing issues with the newspaper theme.

I am using block 4 on this page: durham diocese.org/vacancies/

Unless the user has an account on the site and is logged in, filtering the the block display of articles gives strange results.

The block is set up to display only two categories, ID 850 and 851
(Clergy and Other), if logged in then this all works fine – All gives all results from the two categories etc.

If not logged in filtering rings up other categories.
I have tried replacing the block and the same problem occurs also in other places on the site where block filters are used.

Please help.

Can provide login as required.

Hi,

We reply from oldest to newest in this forum, this is fair for all users. Also if you keep replying in your own topic, the topic will be refreshed and our answered delayed. Please provide all the details in your first post in the topic, if possible.

Indeed, it seems the ajax filter is providing posts that do not belong there when used. I see you are using many plugins, the first thing to check would be plugins. This is not happening in a default theme install, it could be one of your plugins to blame.

I would suggest as a first step and quick test, to deactivate them all, leave only theme plugins active. Then clear all your caching if you have any and check the block functionality again. Let us know the results of that.

Thanks

Thanks for your reply.
I am looking into this as suggested – but so far no plugins clash.

Must have been one of the plugins or something else you tried. If you deactivated them all at once, now enable the plugins one at a time and keep checking. You should be able to spot the one responsible.
