depends on what you mean by safe?
in virus terms, it is as safe as allowing guests to comment on posts. On saving, WordPress checks for code, but there is never 100% guarantee.
The revolution slider plugin was the route used to get the Panama Papers, but it has to be said that there firewall was crap, so you can never consider WordPress to be 100% secure.
The most common issue is spam and links to bad sites – expect to get these and need to keep an eye out for them.
bbpress just uses WordPress login, so suggest you investigate authentication of WordPress
google around – I got
https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/268665/set-up-wp-authentication-from-external-api
from a google of ‘wordpress login using 3rd party credentials’
thanks for reporting back!!
a question for WordPress.com – I’m afraid I have no idea
not with css I’m afraid.
you will need to know how to transfer files to/from your site using ftp. If so then
find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-anonymous.php
transfer this to your pc and edit
remove lines 32-35 ie
<p>
<label for="bbp_anonymous_website"><?php esc_html_e( 'Website:', 'bbpress' ); ?></label><br />
<input type="text" id="bbp_anonymous_website" value="<?php bbp_author_url(); ?>" size="40" maxlength="200" name="bbp_anonymous_website" />
</p>
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/form-anonymous.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
if you are not familiar with css, then suggest you use my style pack plugin
bbp style pack
in settings, you’ll find a tab for the topic/reply form
ok raise it is their forums
BuddyPress
that kinda assumes that the authors have planning meetings, and have project management charts with planned release dates etc. That’s not the way almost all open software authors work.
Most fix tickets that break their software, and then pick items that interest them, which can vary from day to day.
That this one remains as a ‘future release’ shows that it has not been rejected, but also no one is working on it or has been assigned to work on it.
That is the best that anyone can say 🙂
so it is not a simple no.
the trac ticket says that it is in the pipeline for a future release.
The software is worked on for free by people in their spare time, and with the best will in the world, I don’t think you can ask people to make commitments on when this might (or might not) be done.
ok, I can only suggest it could be a theme or plugin issue
Themes
As a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, 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.
Then come back
great – glad you are fixed
bbPress – Moderation Tools
still works as far as I know.
great – glad you are fixed
probably theme related – sorry we cannot fix every issue with every user 🙂
hmm…I’m not seeing this on my test site – when does this occur?
link to an example on your site please
ok, thanks, not sure why that doesn’t work !!
2.6.3 will be released next week, but without this fix.
Then hopefully it will be in 2.6.4
great – glad you are fixed !
you don’t need style pack.
bbpress just uses your theme’s font, so theme related.
you can amend the css
