ok, not sure I can help further, I’m not saying you do not have the issue, but as it is not a repeatable issue, it is either individual post related or site related.
I’d suggest that you just change the status in the posts table database, and come back if you find other posts that have the same issue.
of the original, or a test post?
bbpress uses custom post types, so uses their status in the posts table (not post meta) to determine whether to display.
So on trashing a topic, I would expect the post_status on the posts table to be changed to trash.
To enable you to ‘untrash’ a topic (say if it was a mistake) in tbe post_meta table, I would then expect to see
_bbp_pre_trashed_replies a:4:{i:0;i:33965;i:1;i:33963;i:2;i:33959;i:3;i:33956;}
_wp_trash_meta_status publish
_wp_trash_meta_time 1748443956
The trash status being the status BEFORE it was trashed, so that it can go back to this if you made a mistake.
I am not sure what the other statuses are doing there, if you have been trashing and untrashing, other stuff might happen, and other bbpress plugins might be adding things.
I’d suggest you try creating a test topic and then trashing it, and seeing what happens, so that you can see a ‘clean’ set of entries.
If you still have problems, then it could be a theme or plugin issue, so I’d try creating and trashing a topic with the below happening.
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.
sorry, this is not a plugin written by bbpress. I’m not quite sure which plugin this refers to.
you could try
Inline Image Upload for BBPress
or
GD bbPress Attachments
link to a live example on your site please
The ‘sticky topics’ consisted of both ‘sticky’ and ‘super sticky’ topics, which in effect created 2 sticky lists !
This is one of the new FSE themes, so you need a fix to work with bbpress.
install
bbp style pack
once activated, navigate to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack, and you should see the first tab called ‘Theme Support’ – if you don’t see this, come back.
In that tab, select
Enable Theme Support
and save
The forums should then display
ok, so can you try :
1. dashboard>settings>permalinks and just click save – this resets the permalinks and may help
2. if that doesn’t, can you go into the reply of a topic that is in the wrong orderie
dashboard>replies>edit t5he reply and just click save, and see if that changes
3. if that doesn’t work, can you add a reply to a topic that is in the wrong order, and see if that changes it.
ok, as a test can you deactivate the block member posting and check whether that changes anything – just to eliminate, you can re-enable straight after the test.
thanks, apologies for the wrong route – after a further check, the title is given by the theme, not bbpress.
but thanks for a solution
The link only works for logged in users, but if I have understood the problem, then if you have FTP capability :
find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/single-topic.php
transfer this to your pc and edit
line 21 contains the h1 tag, so you can amend this to what you want
and save
create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme
Then transfer the file you saved above and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/single-topic.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
hmmm…
Just looked on my test site, and the newest appears at the top, and changes when I add a reply.
I can see yours does not match this.
What other (if any) bbpress related plugins are you using?
so you got there did you ?
That’s great – thanks for testing and your help in finding the issues 🙂
ok, I think this is now working in 6.3.4 just released, but again can I ask you to check, that would be very helpful 🙂
no problem, I did some fixes a while ago in this area, and think I have messed some up !!
I’ll have a further go at these later today, and try and get them all working again !
I just found the issue, and fixed it in 6.3.2 just released.
Can you test and confirm please?
Thanks, the ‘unsupported’ is on my list to fix.
should be fixed in style pack 6.3.1 just released
ok, so I’ve now had a chance to look at your steps.
Steps 1-4 are fine.
Step 5 is causing the issue. It is not needed as you are on bbpress 2.x, and that holds the data in the posts table. The site should work at this point with no further action. By importing the bbpress1 you will be overwriting the current forums.
So do it again without stage 5 and come back at that part and let us know what is happening.
