bbPress 2.2.4 (now available for download) is a maintenance and security release, and a safe and easy update for all previous bbPress 2.x versions.

Version 2.2.4 includes some security hardening inside the Forum Importer/Converter tool, and improves post form output sanitization. These issues were responsibly disclosed by Maty Siman.

@netweb When you you think images uploading problem will be fixed? I mean that default users can’t upload images now using TyniMCE editor.

When you you think images uploading problem will be fixed? I mean that default users can’t upload images now using TyniMCE editor.

I think that’s intentional for now. See this:

beta1 of 2.3 now allows image embedding.

I hope the silence wasn’t too deafening

I, for one, am very much looking forward to image embedding in topics/replies using WYSIWYG!

beta1 of 2.3 now allows image embedding.

Does that capability support uploading of other file formats? Or is it just limited to images?

One of the pain points for bbPress for my uses is the lack of a universal file upload system. I know there is a plugin or two, but they didn’t appear compatible with 2.0+

[Stephen EdgarModerator @netweb 3 months, 1 week ago]

It is limited to embedding a linked image only.

GD bbPress attachments is fully compatible with bbPress 2.2.x as far as I know.

Still, my music forum is still only capable of using BBpress 2.1.2 – The “Automatically assign default role to new, registered users upon visiting the site.” doesn’t seem to work for me. My newly registered users cant use the forum if I update

Good stuff, thanks.

bbPress 2.2.4 is still adding network users as participants to the main site no matter if auto role is enabled or disabled.

Minor point: if a topic is moved from one forum to another, the freshness is not updated. So one can have links to the same topic from both the old and new forums.

This is only overwritten when a new post is made to the old forum (on a different topic, obviously)

2.2.4 with 3.5.1
