ok, no easy way to diagnose this as forum requires membership.

I’d suggest 2 things :

1. post a topic to this forum and see if that changes
2. Delete the forum (as it has no topics) and create a new one with the same name and see if that fixes.

I am not a bbpress author, I am simply someone trying to help out.

The slugs do whatever the plugin author codes them to do, and this plugin does not do that.

You can add this additional plugin

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>shortcodes

and you can see a shortcode you can use in a page

[bsp-profile]

with options for wording and edit

[@robin-w Moderator 1 week, 3 days ago]

There are individual slugs eg for user fred:

https://bindesboell.com/fora/user/fred

and

seem to work fine

[@robin-w Moderator 1 week, 4 days ago]

I think you are using the theme twentytwenyfive.

If so you need this additional plugin

Enable bbPress for Block Themes

or use

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>theme support

🙂

[@robin-w Moderator 2 weeks, 6 days ago]

but still astonished how something like this effect can happen

I’m just a moderator here – an unpaid volunteer, I’m not a bbpress author.

There will be a reason for it, and it is almost certainly site specific, no problem on my test site, and with 100,000 installations of bbpress not one I have seen or heard of in 14 years of supporting bbpress.

The code above is not a ‘fix’, it is just a way to get bbpress to ignore the setting, which allows your site to work.

Anyway glad you are fixed 🙂

[@robin-w Moderator 2 weeks, 6 days ago]

that would be worth trying.

untested, but you could first try

add_filter ('bbp_use_autoembed', 'rew_turn_off', 20,1 ) ;

function rew_turn_off ($value) {
	return false ;
}

[@robin-w Moderator 2 weeks, 6 days ago]

Thanks, and yes I was considering whether a function in your child theme might be affecting this.

so since you can test easily (that is untick the option, save and see if it remains unticked), then my next step would be to see what could be affecting this.

So my next step would be that it could be a theme or plugin issue

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.

Plugins

If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Then come back

[@robin-w Moderator 2 weeks, 6 days ago]

thanks, just tried that with Enable bbPress for Block Themes and twenty twenty five, and no problems.

What theme are you using? and do you have any customized functions?

[@robin-w Moderator 2 weeks, 6 days ago]

ok, sorry to sound like I do not believe you, I do, but I need to be very sure what is happening especially as we are using different languages 🙂

so to summarise:

Changing any OTHER item in settings>forums works and saves ok
changing settings>forums>Auto-embed links to untick this and then save – It still shows as ticked

Yes?

[@robin-w Moderator 2 weeks, 6 days ago]

ummm, ok I have not seen this happen before.

As a test, can you untick another option and save – I need to work out if it is that setting or any setting on that page that is not working.

[@robin-w Moderator 2 weeks, 6 days ago]

ok, so are you saying that in settings forums on

Auto-embed links

you unset this and click save changes at the bottom of the page, but when you look again, this setting is still ticked?

or is it unticked, but changing it makes no difference?

[@robin-w Moderator 3 weeks ago]

on your latter point, I am just a moderator here, and not a bbpress author.

The authors tend to release updates every few years, rather than more frequently.

My personal view is that you should consider bbpress to be a ‘mature’ product, ie any releases will be to fix issues rather than add functionality.

bbpress is written really well, and has loads of hooks. In essence it is a WordPress product, written by the founder of WordPress, and taken into a plugin by sponsorship from WordPress.
There are no show stopper bugs in it, it may throw a few notices (and these are very few at the moment), but WordPress recommends that you should not show error messages in live sites.

I currently have my test site running WordPress 6.9 and php 8.2 with no issues.

The only major issue with bbpress at the moment is that it does not work well with FSE themes.

However my bbp style pack plugin has fixes for this

bbp style pack

as well as block versions of the widgets and a ton of styling and functionality add-ons.

All plugins are subject to the authors commitment, and bbpress is no different.

[@robin-w Moderator 3 weeks, 3 days ago]

@mike80222 many thanks for this useful information 🙂 much appreciated

[@robin-w Moderator 3 weeks, 3 days ago]

ok, thanks.

the line of code referred to is looking for a host url on logout from bbpress.

‘$redirect_to = bbp_get_url_scheme() . $_SERVER[‘HTTP_HOST’] . $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’];’

$_SERVER is a php thing and the manual says ‘$_SERVER an array containing information such as headers, paths, and script locations. The entries in this array are created by the web server, therefore there is no guarantee that every web server will provide any of these; servers may omit some, or provide others not listed here. However, most of these variables are accounted for in the » CGI/1.1 specification, and are likely to be defined.’

Are you maybe running on a local host?

[@robin-w Moderator 3 weeks, 4 days ago]

so when does this error occur?

[@robin-w Moderator 3 weeks, 4 days ago]

on the translations, these are part of buddypress not bbpress, so you would need to ask the question on their support forum

https://buddypress.org/support/

on the grey box, what exactly do you want to change?

[@robin-w Moderator 3 weeks, 4 days ago]

link please to a live example with clear explanation of an element that is not right and why

[@robin-w Moderator 1 month, 2 weeks ago]

suspect this is an AI generated spam, but in case not,

bbpress latest version is 2.6.14 and was updated 4 months ago.

bbPress

[@robin-w Moderator 1 month, 2 weeks ago]

Group Forum with bbp private groups

[@robin-w Moderator 1 month, 3 weeks ago]

ok, so given that it is a buddypress function that creates a group forum, can you ask that question on the buddypress support forum, as they are more likely to know a hook that you could use

https://buddypress.org/support/

[@robin-w Moderator 1 month, 3 weeks ago]

I’m pretty sure that the buddypress function hooks to the new_forum_handler in bbpress, so this should work

add_action( 'bbp_new_forum_post_extras', 'rew_add_pg', 10 , 1) ;

function rew_add_pg ($forum_id ) {
	 add_post_meta( $forum_id, '_private_group', 'group1', false );
}

Let me know of not.

[@robin-w Moderator 1 month, 4 weeks ago]

ok, so what setting are you using for ‘Auto Approval disabled’ ?

[@robin-w Moderator 2 months ago]

ok, I know of nothing similar
