Discussion Forum is not working

Site Operators Tutor Help
1

I have enabled the discussion forum using the Tutor plugin. The discussion module is visible in my LMS, but I cannot create discussions or questions. I’m not sure which flags need to be enabled. I have enabled all flags, but it’s still not working as expected. Could you please help me resolve this issue? Thanks in advance. @regis

Hi,

To address the issue, here’s a detailed explanation:

  1. Commands Run:
  • I installed the forum plugin using tutor plugins install forum
  • I enabled the forum plugin using tutor plugins enable forum
  • I launched the local environment using tutor local launch
  • After completing these steps, the ‘Discussion’ module became visible in my LMS
  1. Customizations:
  • I haven’t made any customizations
  1. Current Issue:
  • I am able to create a discussion and post, and it’s visible to my peers as well
  • However, neither I nor my peers can save our responses under the discussion or question

In the Caddy container logs, I see some errors related to the discussion forum

Thank you for your understanding and assistance.

I’ve been working with different LMS setups recently, and I totally get how frustrating these plugin issues can be. Sometimes the problem isn’t just in plugin flags but in how the LMS interacts with external systems. Integrating a Learning Management SIS solution helped us streamline access permissions and content visibility more clearly.
