I have lately been notified several times that obviously fake emails have evidently “subscribed” to my Forum.
sorry, could you say how that works -who or what notified you?
just had a quick look (i’m working on soemthing else at the moment, but found 5 minutes)
maybe
if ( bbp_get_spam_status_id() == get_post_status($reply_id) && !empty (get_post_meta( $reply_id, '_bbp_akismet_user_result', true ))) {
in case you are working on this, basically if we hook to
bbp_new_reply_pre_extras
we can then do a check if it has been spammed by askimet and the if so, just do a reply walker update
so something like (totally untested)
add_action ('bbp_new_reply_pre_extras' , 'rew_askimet_check', 100 , 1 ) ; //might need to be run at a high priority to make sure it is last - not tested
function rew_askimet_check ($reply_id) {
//only execute is this is akismet spam
if ( bbp_get_spam_status_id() == get_post_status($reply_id) && [some check that this has been marked by akismet])) {
//just run the reply update walker as this will do a full refresh of all ancestors to the topic if just the reply ID is sent
bbp_update_reply_walker($reply_id) ;
}
}
The akismet check would be something like
if (get_post_meta( $reply_id, 'some akismet metadata', true )
I’m in the code, and can work out where we might link to a hook, it is really if there is a metadata field I can use to do a check – the name would be useful
Just playing with options. I don’t know how technical you are, but for an ‘askimet’ spammed reply, are there anything additional fields set in the reply metadata to say that askimet found it? If you don’t know, not a problem, but if there is or you know nothing is set, then that would be useful
thanks, yes this happens in this forum too, but I have limited access to the backend here, as I just help out.
I was asking so I can find a hook to try and fix. your post was helpful, so let me see if I can do some code later today
just a quick question to save me time, if askismet sees it as spam, is the topic/reply still created, but marked as spam ie you can still see it in dashboard>topics/replies but as a spam?
ok, so if you are talking about links
dashboard>settings>discussion>comment moderation>Hold a comment in the queue if it contains xx links and change the number of links
ok, not much i can do without seeing it, but 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

link to a live example please
no problem, hopefully someone will help 🙂
sorry, I’m not an individual site design service 🙂
Try
li.bbp-header {
display : none ;
}
div.bbp-topic-header div.bbp-meta {
display : none ;
}
so set a global sidebar and make this the default
https://wpastra.com/docs/sidebar-free/
and bbpress should use this.
what theme are you using?
I think this does what you want
add_filter ('bbp_get_reply_author_avatar', 'rew_avatar', 10 , 3) ;
add_filter ('bbp_get_topic_author_avatar', 'rew_avatar' , 10 , 3) ;
function rew_avatar ( $author_avatar, $id, $size) {
if ( bbp_is_reply( $id ) ) {
$author = bbp_get_reply_author_display_name( $id );
$text = 'alt="icon avatar for '.$author.'"' ;
}
if ( bbp_is_topic( $id ) ) {
$author = bbp_get_topic_author_display_name( $id );
$text = 'alt="icon avatar for '.$author.'"' ;
}
$author_avatar = str_replace('alt=\'\'',$text,$author_avatar);
return $author_avatar ;
}
it could be a theme or plugin issue

Thanks – those are deprecation errors from buddypress not bbpress.
I’d suggest you add
BP Classic
and see if that fixes.
If not, raise the issue in
https://buddypress.org/support/

Can you check if you are a ‘keymaster’
dashboard>users>all Users and look at the forum role for you.
If you are not, you will not see the forum option.
I’ve spilt this off to a separate topic, as it is a specific site issue.
so is this a new installation of bbpress, or a new issue on an existing one?
just a final thought. Your theme should have a default template – you might be able to change this in dashboard>appearance>customize to one that doe not have a sidebar.
