You got an answer on the private groups page, but have not replied to my question !!!!!!
if you mean this thread, it stays to help others.
This should do it
add_filter( 'bbp_current_author_ip', '__return_false' ) ;
if it doesn’t then
add_filter( 'bbp_current_author_ip', 'rew_remove_ip' );
function rew_remove_ip () {
$retval = 0 ;
return $retval ;
}
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
looks like an issue with this function
wp_insert_term()
where that error message is created.
ok, so I don’t think that is coming directly from bbpress.
It may well be a theme or plugin issue.
eg googling I found this :
https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/277874/creating-menu-always-gives-error-a-name-is-required-for-this-term
so
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
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>login
by ‘header’ do you mean ‘menu’ ?
‘A name is required for this term’ is not a bbpress error.
Is this site in English, or have you translated it ?
ok, only keymasters are able to see dashboard>forums, and only keymasters can appoint other keymasters, so get them to set you as one, and you should be able to see the forums
ok, can you look and see if you are a Keymaster?
dashboard>users and check yourself in the list. If not is anyone a keymaster?
so you mean that in the dashboard you can see topics and replies, but not forums – yes ?
it could be a theme or plugin issue

have both been recently suggested, but I have not tried either, any feedback would be welcome 🙂
ok, so that is going to be hard to answer as your site is unique to you, and this is theme and setting dependant.
a bit like me asking you where the best place in my bathroom to put the towel rail, and how to install it when I don’t know what a drill is 🙂
@gloriajameson you are now well beyond any support for bbpress!!!
And into wordpress and the plugin you are using.
I have no idea if that plugin stores uploads as WordPress media images, or in a separate folder, and indeed whether it makes multiple copies. I have no knowledge either of compressor, there are other compression plugins, but as I say not in my area to recommend or indeed say whether they would work.
My personal general view would be that letting users exchange images privately, whilst leaving copies on your website sounds dangerous as without looking as each image you have no idea what images are being sent, thus leaving you open to possible action such as copyright, reputation damage though say pornography or indeed criminal action against you – eg in the UK holding bomb making instructions makes you liable to be sent to prison. Depends on how much you want to trust your users 🙂
great – thanks again for posting back – glad you have a solution
can you contact me via

quoting a link to this thread, and I’ll see if I can help further
attach it and link
but yes I need to understand what you mean by ‘header’
This appears to be a paid theme, so i have no access to it.
I suggest you try

item 8
I can’t say for sure as I’ve not used that plugin.
But bbpress and worpdress have lots of capabilities to put code where you wish, so
1. exactly where do you want it to go?
2. Do you know how to do a button linking to the page?
thanks, recommendations always welcome
