    ok that phrase is not in bbpress, so something else is sending it.

    ‘blocklist’ looks like it should actually read ‘blacklist’

    I can only suggest the standard fault finding to try and identify whether a plugin or theme is causing it

    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.

    If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

    Then come back

    you’d be best to use the backend to post them

    dashboard>topics>new topic or new reply – there is a date field in that

    or once posted in the front end, you can go into the backend and edit the date

    You can manually change any set up already from their profile.

    For new users you can change this at registration
    eg

    function change_display_name( $user_id ) {
     $info = get_userdata( $user_id );
     $args = array(
     'ID' => $user_id,
     'display_name' => $info->first_name . ' ' . $info->last_name
     );
     wp_update_user( $args );
    }
    add_action('user_register','change_display_name');

    you have options of
    ‘display_name’ => $info->user_login
    or
    ‘display_name’ => $info->user_email
    or
    ‘display_name’ => $info->user_nicename

    or if you have a custom field, you can use that

    Put this in your child theme’s function file –

    ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php

    where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

    or use

    so you have

    a live site with user posting topics and replies
    a staging site which you use to update themes, plugins and presumably pages and posts.

    when you push the staging back to live, it overwrites the database, so deleting any entries users have made since last copying live to staging

    Is that a correct summary ?

    Just create a category of ‘general lace Discussion’ and make the forum a sub of this.

    I suspect you have a spam or pending topic, this can muck up the counts.

    you could try

    dashboard>tools>forums>repair and redo the counts

    These posts all contained 2 links to my website, below the threshold for moderation trigger.)

    The html code has tons of links in it – hence the moderation πŸ™‚

    put this in the custom css part of your theme

    .bbp-forums-list {
    	display: none;
    }

    ok, since this is a php change, it will not reflect on the browser unless the screen is refreshed – ie the page is re-downloaded.

    I can’t say why the learndash hook isn’t working, except that it may not be the appropriate hook – there may be better ones

    neither is standard in bbpress, maybe in buddypress or buddyboss, I don’t know.

    for the handle, you’ll need to add

    /**
    * Add @mentionname after bbpress forum author details
    */
    
    add_action( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_author_details', 'mentionname_to_bbpress' );
    function mentionname_to_bbpress () {
    $user = get_userdata( bbp_get_reply_author_id() );
    if ( !empty( $user->user_nicename ) ) {
    $user_nicename = $user->user_nicename;
    echo "@".$user_nicename;
    }
    }

    Put this in your child theme’s function file –

    ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php

    where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

    or use

    try

    dashboard>settings>permalinks and just click save – this resets the permalinks and may help

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    ok, maybe look at

    dashboard>settings>forums and look at editing time.

    If that doesn’t fix, then standard fault finding applies viz :

    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.

    If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

    edit from the end

    backend or front end ?

    These look like sub forums of the main one – yes ?

    on the forum in dashboard>forums it is the forum image on the right hand side

    bbpress works fine without buddypress – I don’t use buddypress on any of my sites

    @robin-w

    that is the users IP number – their computer’s number.

    It is only seen by moderators and keymasters.

    It lets them see if someone has multiple usernames but is using one computer

    Moderator

    Thanks – a few questions please

    one ‘post’ – or all posts?

    edit from front end (what the user sees) or backend (wordpress dashboard)?

    Topics/replies – or both?

    what is your bbpress role?

    @robin-w

    Moderator

    beyond free help, but I have suggested another plugin in your other post

    @robin-w
