1. if you set up a new test user and subscribe them, do you see this?
2. suggest you get one user to unsubscribe and subscribe again to a forum, and see if that fixes for them

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

This plugin still works

bbPress – Moderation Tools

on the ‘security settings’ – these are as set in

dashboard>settings>disucussion>comment moderation where you can increase the no. links allowed

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

found this on googling ‘wp cli bbpress’

https://github.com/bbpress/wp-cli-bbpress

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

so is this just one user?

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

Sorry, I am not a bbpress author, just someone who tries to help out here – I don’t always succeed.

I’ve never tried or used CLI

Hope you find a solution

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

from your example, you haven’t said what you want the cli to output

eg

$ wp post list –post_type=topic –fields=post_title,post_status

or

$ wp post list –post_type=topic,post –format=ids

see examples in

wp post list

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

I’d start with

Recalculate engagements in each topic for each user

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

The way subscriptions worked changed between 2.5.x and 2.6.x

So if you have run the actions in

dashboard>tools>upgrade forums

then I’d suggest you try

dashboard>tools>repair forums> and run one at a time

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

🙂

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

‘recommended’ just comes out worpdress caution of making sure urls don’t clash – I’ve not seen an occasion when they did, so it is a recommendation – you decide 🙂

of slugs must be unique, so no you can’t have the same

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>forum templates

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

if you are after styling the forums, then

bbp style pack

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

dashboard>settings>forums and switch off the forum prefix

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

the theme used on this site is in

https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/browser/sites/trunk/buddypress.org/public_html/wp-content/themes/bb-base

but I suspect your site already has a theme and other plugins.

I would suggest you look at

bbp style pack

which will let you amend many things, and let you add single topic and single forum widgets to your sidebar

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

that post was a spam post, so I deleted it.

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

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

Health Check & Troubleshooting

Then come back

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

spectators should not be able to create topics.
Participants by default can.

you will either need to

change participant permissions -see this

Custom Capabilities

or add

Private groups

and set up topic permissions which will then let you set up a group with permission to reply only

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

forums are displayed using wordpress wpquery and post parent. you could add postmeta and add this to the query, but as I say lots of work to make this happen

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

you can make a topic ‘super sticky’ which will make it appear at the top of all forums.

I know of nothing that will do a couple of forums, and indeed the code to do so would need to catch lots of areas, such as subscriptions, freshness etc. which at the moment rely on the ‘post parent’ table element of WordPress, so lots of code might be needed to get it to work.

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

I would switch debug on – and see what errors you are getting

https://wpforms.com/developers/how-to-enable-debugging-in-wordpress/

and see what error is occuring

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

ok, so when it occurs it is site wide and to all users including yourself? and casual (non logged in) visitors?

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

hmmm….

ok so the function bbp_get_user_topic_count_raw definately exists, so it is possibly a load order issue, but you would expect that to be consistent – or it is something else 🙂

intermittent issues are always hard to trace, can you recreate this, or how often is it happening, or it is happening to particular users (eg participant, subscriber) etc.

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

add_filter( 'bbp_get_forum_freshness_link', 'rew_show_forum_freshness' , 10 , 6) ;

function rew_show_forum_freshness ($anchor, $forum_id, $time_since, $link_url, $title, $active_id ){
	return $time_since ;
}

add_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_freshness_link', 'rew_show_topic_freshness' , 10 , 6) ;

function rew_show_topic_freshness ($anchor, $topic_id, $time_since, $link_url, $title){
	return $time_since ;
}

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

Code Snippets

[@robin-w Moderator 4 years ago]

I am nit a bbpress author, just someine who tries to help out here.

bbpress has never worked well with threaded replies, sorry that’s just the way it is.

it is really hard to do pagination with nested replies and make the display work intelligibly.

If you know js well, then you could do some hide/show in css maybe, not my strong point.
