I am a new user and have hit. a problem the connection tab says I am connected to discourse, but I cannot select a default discourse category because it doesn’t see a connection.
what did I do wring here?
thanks Steve
Hey Steve, sorry to be a pain but could you also share a screenshot of the notice saying you’re connected to Discourse? Thanks.
hi Angus absolutely
and here is an image of the discourse API page
after selecting “all users” there was no option to set a user to one of the admin accounts
the discourse icon appears on the posting page but as you can see there is an error
I am sure I am a complete idiot and missed something obvious but anything you can suggest would be great
Thanks for the extra info Steven. Could you also share your WP Discourse logs with me (see “Logs” in the WP Discourse admin panel). There will likely be an error message.
Thanks Steven, I need the full line of the ones that have “error” in them. Please copy the line and paste it in a post here.
Hi Angus here you are the three error messages from the first day

In addition I retried posting from Wordpress to discourse and whilst the category list still can’t be returned
I was able to post to discourse in the uncategorised category

Steve, 이 문제로 인내심을 가져주셔서 감사합니다. 현재 Discourse가 플러그인이 기대하는 방식으로 카테고리를 반환하지 않는 것으로 보입니다.
-
https://schoolreviews.discourse.group/site.json에는 카테고리가 포함되어 있지 않습니다. WP Discourse 플러그인은 이 파일을 사용하여 카테고리 목록을 채웁니다. -
하지만
https://schoolreviews.discourse.group/categories.json에서 공개 카테고리가 존재하는 것을 확인할 수 있습니다.
실제로 Discourse에 접속해 보니, 카테고리 목록에 의존하는 Discourse 기능들도 정상 작동하지 않고 있습니다.
이것은 WP Discourse 플러그인의 문제가 아니라 Discourse 자체의 문제이므로, 이 주제를 #contribute:bug로 이동하겠습니다.
Assuming the site’s on the Discourse Starter plan, this might not be a bug. It doesn’t look like that plan allows for API or Webhook access: Discourse pricing | Discourse - Civilized Discussion.
Edit: the WP Discourse “You are connected to Discourse” message wouldn’t get displayed if the API was disabled, so that’s probably not the cause of the issue.
I believe the OP is on basic plan which is not the same as the starter plan. We didn’t take API or webhook access away from existing Basic customers.
Longshot: did you change the lazy load categories groups setting?
Even if that were the case, there is currently an issue loading categories on Steve’s Discourse, i.e. Discourse itself is broken, separate from WP Discourse’s issues.
Yea in this case it would likely be best to leave that setting as blank. I had a look and it’s been changed to everyone. @Stevej try reverting that setting and see if that helps.
(I know it’s a beta flag but Isn’t it time to hide that setting until it stops causing so many issues?)
Hi Everyone,
Thanks for your help, yes I am on the basic plan not the starter plan.
I deselected lazy load as suggested by several of you and that seems to have solved the issue.
thank you all again!
Steve
