In reply to: Issues with Edit buttons and Topic Visibility
Excuse me – didn’t occur to me that “visual editor” was referring to TinyMCE. I do not have TinyMCE running on my bbPress, just a regular editor like the one in this forum.
In reply to: Issues with Edit buttons and Topic VisibilityAlright, did not bump any topic > 12 months, and will not do so.
So here’s where I’m at: Figured out a fresh bbPress install from 2.1 and above has issue 1 resolved for me.
But with bbPress 2.4.1, the version I’m running, I still needed the most updated bbPress-Thesis compatibility pack to fix issue 2. Unfortunately, the bbPress compatibility pack only goes up to 1.2.4 (what I’m now running), and was only actively being updated until bbPress 2.1 or so.
I tried running a clean bbPress 2.5.3 (no compatibility pack), and issue 2 occurs. Adding the compatibility pack breaks 2.5.3 completely (and I’ve not invested time looking into code).What’s happening now is that issue 1 (HTML for editor inside editor when editing topics) is now occurring when I try to edit replies. So I’m still having issues with the visual editor.
What puzzles me is that in the Thesis forums, some other users talked about having troubles with their visual editor as well, even with the latest (1.2.4) compatibility pack. But supposedly, someone found a fix and crossposted it in this topic and in the Thesis forums. In the Thesis forums, he claims that this fix is implemented since bbPress 2.2, but I’m running 2.4 and still having issues with the editor?
The code fix in the above link also does not work for me, since in 2.4.1, bbp_replace_the_content is no longer a method that exists in theme-compat.php. Considering that the symptoms of my current issue seems to be the same as original issue #1, I would think the fix would have something to do with a similar problem where a function is being called twice, but have no idea where to begin looking. Any ideas?
In reply to: Issues with Edit buttons and Topic VisibilityJust got a solution to issue 3 (the topics/first post not showing).
Turns out s2member was the culprit. A setting in s2member > restriction options > alternative view protection, unchecking only the first check box, “Filter ALL WordPress queries; protecting all Alternate Views” seemed to do it. Now I’ll have to figure out what this implies for me in terms of protected content, but that’s an issue for s2member forums. This piece is resolved. I’ll go and make posts in the other threads where I saw this issue “unresolved” as well so more people can see it.
I’ll keep looking into the edit issues and reply if I find anything. Thanks for your help Stephen. 🙂
In reply to: Issues with Edit buttons and Topic VisibilityUnfortunately, whether we should upgrade or not is not my call to make. At the advice of another developer, my project manager has decided that we will not be updating WordPress. At the advice of yet another developer, I have been warned not to update bbPress either. Sorry. I’m just a measly intern developer with no say. 🙁
I was speaking with one of the aforementioned developers today, and he suggested that it the ‘edit’ issue (as far as the HTML in the editor goes) might have to do with Thesis. I’m going to look further into bbPress-thesis compatibility issues, but would you happen to know anything offhand about that? I do have the bbPress-Thesis compatibility pack plugin installed.
As for s2member, I have tried various combinations of role settings, but the issue still remains that a member has to either have highest level (admin) role in s2member or moderator or higher role in bbPress in order to view topics. All replies are visible to all roles, s2member and bbPress. I realize I might be starting to get out of scope of this forum, but there is a full post here that describes the roles as they interact between s2member and bbpress. Is the only way for me to work with bbPress and s2member to customize the roles? I’d hope for a simpler workaround if possible…
