I suspect those functions are bbpress version 1
bbpress 2.x just uses wordpress login, so the standard wordpress function
is_user_logged_in()
will tell you if the user is logged in.
thanks for the update 🙂
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

hmm… I would suspect that it is not file related, but rather plugin, theme, role or database.
I have gone through all the PHP files on the backend,
That would be several hundred, and given plugins, probably thousands to look through the code of and understand, and would take weeks if not months 🙂
I would ask what you have looked at, but as I say I suspect that files as such are not the issue
participants are in the database.
Without any idea of what you changed to get to this point, it is impossible to advise what to do other than the above.
Unless you have been changing files, then looking at them is probably pointless.
Did you do the actions I suggested ?
I’ve just looked and then code in my style pack is not doing what I would expect – let me look at it again this week
several
\bbpress 2.6.6\templates\default\bbpress\content-single-topic.php
if show lead topic set, calls content-single-topic-lead
calls
loop-replies
form-reply
\bbpress 2.6.6\templates\default\bbpress\loop-replies.php
does reply list headers
calls loop-single-reply
\bbpress 2.6.6\templates\default\bbpress\loop-single-reply.php
lists reply content
many on shared servers with eg LCN or Siteground, with sub 3s response.
are you using the hello theme?
ok, so if you are a keymaster then I can only suggest
1. reset the permalinks – dashboard>settings>permalinks and just click save – this resets them.
2. if that doesn’t fix, it could be a theme or plugin issue

my personal view is that content wins out every time – ie if your content is worth reading then people will handle any reasonable load time.
When the internet was slow, caching, minimisation and other tricks were worth spending days on to get right.
I’ve not bothered caching forums pages on nay of my sites, although I do cache other pages.
I’d suggest you try forums with cache switched on and off, and see if it makes any difference to load time that is noticeable – run each at least 10 times and total the time, and indeed to content changing.
so has the account you are trying to see the dashboard>forums/topics/replies got a keymaster role set ?
what is your bbpress role in
dashboard>users
if they are not showing, then it could be a theme or plugin issue

great – and thanks for posting the solution
This plugin will let you do this
Private groups
in the settings, create an ‘admin’ group and a ‘user’ group.
use the topic permissions to set this
and then for that forum (you can leave the others alone) , just assign that forum to the admin and user groups and save. You can then use the topic permissions to allow admins to post, but users just to view.
Finally use the ‘assign groups to roles’ tab to give admins the ‘admin’ group and subscribers the ‘user’ group
ok, activity is a buddypress item I think – I know it is crossover, but you might do better there
https://buddypress.org/support/
can you say what you mean by ACTIVITY feed?
wow – thanks for posting that solution – I s’pose something has to take precedence, if I get a moment I’ll look to see where this is selected
ok, scheduling works fine on my test site, so not sure what to suggest next.
