Hi.

I get a strange message:


But I can access the area and it's an expected behaviour.

It seems the message appear when Email posting is enabled.

So I make a post then try to reply immediately and get a message "You can't post that soon.". I wait several seconds and try to reply once more - and get the message. But reply works. It's worth to mention, then users can reply only to own posts at the forum.
The message don't disappear when I browse the forum. It doesn't affect anything.

It seems the message doesn't appear if I try to reply in about a minute.
This makes me think that the message appear in when 2 factors meet:
Email posting is enabled
A permission error is raised because of "You can't post that soon".

The message don't disappear at other forum pages till I refresh the page via CTRL+R.
Or if I wait for some time and continue browsing. This makes me think it's somehow tied to caching.

And even triple message may appear


I'd be happy if it were fixed. :-)

I tried to get emails by cron and got the message:
/index.php?option=com_chronoforums&cont=posts&act=email_reply

So I believe it's somehow tied to the post by email not working.

My bad, have not read well. I used a wrong cron link without the secret word.

But! Now I use it and can say that cron link returns a fatal error , but works

Warning: Creating default object from empty value in /mnt/sda2/work/www/arygroup.gaa/www/administrator/components/com_chronoforums/chronoforums/models/post.php on line 76

Fatal error: Call to undefined method stdClass::saveField() in /mnt/sda2/work/www/arygroup.gaa/www/administrator/components/com_chronoforums/chronoforums/models/post.php on line 77

But frontend Emails posting doesn't work. I have Emails posting period set to 2. The mails are not fetched while I browse the forum. And I suspect, that "You can't access this area." is because it cannot check the imap mailbox from fronted.

So I think it's a bug.

The message "You can't access this area" never appear when Emails posting period is set to 0.
So I'm almost sure, that email posting doesn't work when using non-cron approach (a bug) and this message is a kind of message, which should say "could not check mailbox".

Hi gruz,

Please ask Max to reply to this using the Contact Us menu above and linking to this thread (I know nothing about the inner workings of ChronoForums).

Is this ever going to be resolved? I have the same issue.
