Makes perfect sense to me.
I see. This at least provides me with a solution: we need to make many of these forums sub-forums. I did a test; if I set one of these forums to be the sub-forum of another on this list, a forum not previously appearing on this page appears at the bottom.
This is resolved now, since this is built into bbPress. I am curious though why this limitation was built it. It seems like something the admin should decide, not bbPress, but perhaps it was to keep database load down, or to just protect the bbPress brand (to keep bbPress powered-sites from looking ugly)? Anyways, much appreciated.
It’s not ready to share publicly so I sent a link to you via Google+ (Hangouts) which will hopefully email it to you quick. Thanks again.
Thanks for the tips, Stephen. Tried both ideas (permalink reset & repair tools), clearing the cache throughout, but no change.
This is a multisite, so I also tried various combinations to reset the permalinks via the Site settings in the Network Dashboard and the Permalinks Settings on the Site’s individual Dashboard. No change.
Still pondering…
