In reply to: PHP notice on version 2.6.11
Not sure why that posted twice. Sorry!
In reply to: PHP notice on version 2.6.11Thanks for the clarification @robin-w. I don’t really understand anything about the WP translation scheme, or exactly when WP changed things so that these notices are shown (when I started seeing them doesn’t seem to jibe with what I can find in the WP trac). Anyway, AFAICT this isn’t in the bbpress trac (though there are similar things there). Should it be there?
Again, I’m fairly confused about this. I’m assuming that not everyone is seeing this, or there would be a lot more complaints about it. I don’t know if that’s because some special circumstances are necessary, or just because nobody has debugging turned on 🙂

In reply to: PHP notice on version 2.6.11@dragoeco, Thanks a lot for posting this. This notice was driving me crazy. Can I ask why you say “bbpress is not causing it.” It seems like this is something that needs to be fixed in bbpress/includes/extend/buddypress/loader.php.
I checked it out with QueryMonitor and it didn’t appear that any other plugins were involved, though I’m rather out of my depth here and might be confused.
In reply to: Release Notes for 2.6.12Thanks for that info. I didn’t realize there was a 2.6.13 in the works. It says on the download page that 2.7.0 is “what we run here at bbPress.org” — is that still true, or would it be 2.6.13?
I’m really glad to hear that you’ll be having more time for bbPress! (And I’m sure I’m not the only one.)
In reply to: Release Notes for 2.6.12@johnjamesjacoby, It’s really good to know that you still read the forums. Robin is great, but he doesn’t do releases. I assume we’re depending on you for that. Can you provide any insight into the status of 2.7.0 Alpha? I’m assuming that, if I knew how, I could at least query Trac to find out which bugs are attached (if that’s the right term) to that release, and so on. But I just don’t know how to make those queries. Any info (or help on how to get it) would be appreciated!
And thanks so much for the all the work that you do on bbPress! I for one am glad that bbPress is stable. The last thing I want is a bunch of new features. But updates when things are deprecated by WP (or BuddyPress) are *very much* appreciated.
In reply to: Release Notes for 2.6.12Yeah, I’ve noticed that sometimes you have to wait for a day (or two?) for that page to get updated. I think that, for some updates, it never happens. Best to just use the Blog page.
In reply to: Release Notes for 2.6.12Yeah, I know. You can actually find it there but you have to scroll all the way down to the bottom and then you still have to click on the Blog link. So you might as well go right to the blog.
What I’m still trying to figure out … If you go here: https://bbpress.org/download/
Then it shows a 2.7.0 Alpha release.Maybe someone who understands the “process” here better can comment on how you figure out what the expected timeline for that is, and how you search in the Trac database to determine what’s going to be in it. I can’t quite figure that out. I sure wish it would include ticket #3589 which is preventing me from updating PHP 🙂
It’s not clear to me whether the person? People? who actually make the releases watch this forum or not.
In reply to: Release Notes for 2.6.12I think it’s here: https://bbpress.org/blog/
Looks like a security issue.In reply to: Bug – Privacy issue between BBpress and BuddypressHi @daihlo,
I use bbPress with BuddyPress also. I’ve noticed that the people at “Buddy Dev”
are much more responsive than BuddyPress. I made a free account there and I’ve gotten a lot of good info from posting in their forums. They know about bbPress too. You might try them.
Hope that helps!

In reply to: Is bbPress vulnerable to hackers?I’m afraid that I can’t offer any advice on Google analytics either. My sites are hooked up to both Google Search Console and Analytics. Sometimes the notifications from Search Console make sense and I have fixed some things based on those. But I’ve never figured out how to use Analytics for anything other than just to see where people are coming from geographically.
In reply to: Is bbPress vulnerable to hackers?Hi @rvpodcast,
I’m not a WordPress, bbPress, or security expert — but I’ve been using bbPress for forums on a couple of different sites for almost 5 years now. I’m not aware of any current or recent security issues with bbPress itself. WordPress has had a number of them. I suggest looking at one of the several available “vulnerability” databases WRT this kind of thing. I mostly use Wordfence (and I also use their security plugin on all my WordPress sites).
For what it’s worth, my most active site has about 500 users. So I don’t have any experience with a really high-volume site.
It is definitely important to take some time making this decision, because once you choose your forum software, it’s not going to be easy to switch!
Hope that helps.
Mike
In reply to: blacklist_keys in bbpress functions.phpHoly cow, I can’t believe I didn’t think of that!
Yes, you’re right. When I post anything as a regular user I get the notice. And changing that line in bbpress/includes/common/functions.php does appear to make it go away. I commented on the ticket just to say that I tried it.
Thanks!
In reply to: blacklist_keys in bbpress functions.phpThat’s what I was planning to do, but I can’t replicate the problem. When I just make a couple of posts and replies, I don’t get the php notice. That’s why I was thinking maybe it wasn’t bbPress. There must be something special I need to do, to invoke the “blacklist” thing? It happens every once in a while. But I can’t find an action that causes it to happen. I gather that you don’t see it happening, right?
[10-Mar-2023 04:55:26 UTC] PHP Deprecated: Function get_option was called with an argument that is <strong>deprecated</strong> since version 5.5.0! The "blacklist_keys" option key has been renamed to "disallowed_keys". in .../public_html/wp-includes/functions.php on line 5667In reply to: blacklist_keys in bbpress functions.phpNo, it’s not a big deal. Just a deprecated notice. Is there a ticket for it (just so that it might eventually get worked on?)
In reply to: blacklist_keys in bbpress functions.phpFor what it’s worth, I can’t find a way to make the PHP Deprecated notices happen by doing any bbPress function I can think of. (What I can think of it is just to make posts and replies 🙂 ) If the notices are coming from bbPress (and maybe they’re not) I don’t know what sort of action might trigger them.
In reply to: Change bbPress toolbar, math equationsI think so, given the caveats above. You know, since you’re running an actual math forum, you might want to reach out directly to the authors of both: WP QuickLaTeX (Pavel Holoborodko) and MathJax-LaTeX (Phillip Lord, Simon Cockell, and Paul Schreiber). They might be willing to give you some extra help with their plugins. At least it’s worth a try.
In reply to: Change bbPress toolbar, math equationsI’m not sure I understand. You mean in the topic title? I just tried that and it looks like you can put math in a topic title. So, yes, if you meant the title.
In reply to: Change bbPress toolbar, math equationsHi @carlviggo,
I’ve been using this on PhysicsCafe.org.
It’s not perfect and it’s not clear how well it’s being maintained. But it’s still working for us, so far. Let me know if you find anything better. It also might be possible just to include MathJax directly on your site, although I haven’t figured out how to do that myself.

In reply to: blacklist_keys in bbpress functions.phpThanks Robin!
In reply to: Buddypress + BBpress BUG FIX requestHi @desberdin,
Is this the same issue?
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3454
Or, am I confusing two different things? If it’s the same issue you might take a look at that ticket and see if you have any comments to add to it.

In reply to: There is an error! disallowed_keys@johnjamesjacoby, any idea when this might be addressed?
In reply to: PHP VersionBut I do agree that it is very annoying that WP and many plugins don’t take these things seriously!
In reply to: PHP VersionI have everything turned on, but going into the logs. Actually I have a separate php log for error/warnings, and another one for debugging stuff like notices and deprecated. So I can see everything in the logs when needed but don’t have to wade through the notices to see the actual errors and warnings.
In reply to: PHP VersionHa — I turn on notices 🙂
