ok, yes that is interesting.

so now I am suspecting that in the database there is something wrong for those entries, and that changing the date is in effect changing some data in the topic entry (it holds things like no. replies, data of reply etc.) that when you do any update gets fixed.

you could try

dashboard>tools>forums>repair forums>

and try running these one at a time, and after each see if that has fixed.

Recalculate parent topic for each reply
Recalculate parent forum for each topic and reply
Recalculate private and hidden forums
Recalculate last activity in each topic and forum
Recount replies in each topic

[@robin-w Moderator 3 months, 2 weeks ago]

ok, so that’s good, I wanted to check that first.

So now as a test for the August 28, 2017 reply

in dashboard>replies>edit reply try changing the publish date on the August 28, 2017 one to October 20, 2025

and see if it now appears?

[@robin-w Moderator 3 months, 2 weeks ago]

ok, so lets test date theory.

so in one of the forums that has the issue

1. find a post with multiple replies that all show – a topic without the problem
then in dashboard>replies>edit replies
find one of the replies and look at all the settings for that

2. Then find a post with multiple replies where replies do not show, and again
in dashboard>replies>edit replies
find one of the replies and look at all the settings for that

and see if there are any differences.

then come back

[@robin-w Moderator 3 months, 2 weeks ago]

thanks, so lets try some other stuff to see if we can eliminate.

So just another question, do you have a topic where there are replies both before 2016 and after – ie a post that is showing SOME but not all of the replies? Or is it a case that a topic either shows all or none of the replies?

[@robin-w Moderator 3 months, 2 weeks ago]

ok, thanks for that – fixing this is all about finding a difference, so excuse if these questions sound like they are going nowhere !

the settings for the other forums that work is also

Type: forum
Status: open
Visibility: private

but with a parent set

yes ?

[@robin-w Moderator 3 months, 2 weeks ago]

thanks for that.

so is this all posts from 2016, just some posts, a few posts?
and from one particular forum, or several?

[@robin-w Moderator 3 months, 2 weeks ago]

At the moment I would not suspect a date as the cause, though I never dismiss any possibilities.

1. I presume you can log in as a normal user and see the issue for yourself?
2. When did this issue start – you say ‘no longer’ but for how long – ie just started, been weeks, been months

[@robin-w Moderator 3 months, 3 weeks ago]

If you are using a block theme, then you will need to add theme support for bbpress.

so either

Install

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>theme support

This plugin has lots of styling and functionality additions to bbpress

and/or use

Enable bbPress for Block Themes

[@robin-w Moderator 3 months, 3 weeks ago]

does this article (although reared to xenForo) help to identify the issue?

[@robin-w Moderator 3 months, 3 weeks ago]

are you using any SEO plugins?

[@robin-w Moderator 4 months ago]

if (!is_admin() ) {
add_filter( 'bbp_get_forum_content', 'rewst', 10 , 2 ) ;
}
function rewst ($content, $forum_id ){
	if (!empty ($content)) $content= '<a class="bbp-forum-rew" href="'.bbp_get_forum_permalink($forum_id).'">'.$content.'</a>' ;
return $content ;
}

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

link to an example, so I can see what template or function please

[@robin-w Moderator 4 months ago]

there are lots of causes that will show this error, many plugins load the bbpress text domain.

If you are running buddypress, then you can stop a bbpress file from causing the error by the fixes above, or by using :

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>bbPress bug fixes and go to

Fix bbPress domain triggered early if Buddypress also active

[@robin-w Moderator 4 months, 1 week ago]

ok, so bbpress will show before the site is published

does bbpress show as active in
dashboard>plugins>installed plugins
do you have
dashboard>settings>Forums showing

[@robin-w Moderator 4 months, 1 week ago]

without further digging, the function

echo get_the_post_thumbnail

seems to support

thumbnail
medium
large
full

so you can have for instance

echo get_the_post_thumbnail($post->ID,'medium',array('class' => 'alignleft forum-icon'));
echo get_the_post_thumbnail($post->ID,'large',array('class' => 'alignleft forum-icon'));

you can also play with these settings – see

[@robin-w Moderator 4 months, 1 week ago]

which particular code did you use, please post the snippet here

[@robin-w Moderator 4 months, 1 week ago]

so these topics came from where and how did you import them?

I’d also suggest you try

dashboard>tools>forums>repair forums and run them one at a time, this may well fix the issue

[@robin-w Moderator 4 months, 1 week ago]

you need top take out the “!important” in the rule in your Customizr Child Home style.css line 2858

to make it

#bbpress-forums ul.odd, #bbpress-forums ul.even {
  background-color: #EFEFEF;
}

and then add this rule

#bbpress-forums .super-sticky {
	background-color: blue !important;
}

[@robin-w Moderator 4 months, 1 week ago]

function my_bbp_no_reply_email(){
    $email = 'no-reply@sitename.com'; // any email you want
    return $email;
}
add_filter('bbp_get_do_not_reply_address','my_bbp_no_reply_email');

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

ok, it is listed as a bug for bbpress to fix, I am just a volunteer here,

so if you want a fix in the meantime , install

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>bbPress Bug Fixes and select the relevant one (at/near the bottom)

[@robin-w Moderator 4 months, 3 weeks ago]

sorry this is going nowhere

[@robin-w Moderator 4 months, 3 weeks ago]

because they entered the full link!!!

[@robin-w Moderator 4 months, 4 weeks ago]

I have no influence on what the core bbpress does.

21% of websites are http

[@robin-w Moderator 4 months, 4 weeks ago]

since it is you asking 🙂

add_filter( 'bbp_make_clickable', 'rewst', 10 , 2 ) ;
function rewst ($ret, $text ){
	$ret = str_replace ('http://' , 'https://' , $ret);
	return $ret ;
}

Put this in your child theme’s function file –

ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php

yes for the reasons stated above, ie the link will resolve to https if the site has ssl.

Not every site is https

that’s how the bbpress authors have decided it should work
