bbpress hates local server !
try adding this to your function file
add_filter( 'bbp_verify_nonce_request_url', 'my_bbp_verify_nonce_request_url', 999, 1 );
function my_bbp_verify_nonce_request_url( $requested_url )
{
return 'http://localhost:8888' . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
}
ok, bbpress works fine with 4.8
So can you define what you mean by ‘broken’ in ‘My newly created forum became broken with the update to WP 4.8.’
great – glad you are fixed !!
It could be a theme or plugin issue
Plugins
Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.
Themes
If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.
Then come back
use my style pack plugin that will let you change lots of things
bbp style pack
may not work, but try
dashboard>tools>forums>repair forums

bbpress just uses wordpress login, so you can display the number of wordpress users online
eg
WP-UserOnline
http://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-show-real-time-online-users-in-wordpress/
but as to how many are in a forum, I don’t know of anything that would be clever enough to do that
ok, thanks for the updates
Great – thanks for that !
sorry – I was half awake this morning
try
add_filter ('bbp_before_has_forums_parse_args', 'rew_show_all' ) ;
function rew_show_all ($args) {
$args['posts_per_page'] = -1 ;
return $args ;
}
great – thanks for the update
great – thanks for updating us.
It would help others searching later and finding this topic to post your solution – thanks
the code only shows 50
put this in your functions file (untested, but should work)
add_filter ('bbp_before_has_forums_parse_arguments', 'rew_show_all' ) :
function rew_show_all ($args) {
$args['posts_per_page'] = -1 ;
return $args ;
}
If I understand what you want correctly, just set each ‘page’/index as a category and then the appropriate forums as belonging to that category.
Then set up a page for each and use a shortcodes to display the appropriate forums for that page
eg
[bbp-single-forum id=1]
[bbp-single-forum id=2]
[bbp-single-forum id=3]
I’d suggest you try a few repairs
dashboard>tools>forums>repair and run one at a time
this is doable, but you’ll need to modify the role
see
bbPress User Roles and Capabilities
and
Custom Capabilities
you’ll probably want to create a new role which just lets this role create and edit replies
presume you have posted this in the buddypress support forum?
yes any 1 of these will fix
sorry it’s
/includes/forums/functions.php
have amended the instructions above !!
next version of bbpress will fix this, but in the meantime
3 different fixes – either
1. downgrade to a lesser version of php
2. upgrade to bbpress 2.6 RC
3. in bbpress 2.5.12 go to /includes/forums/functions.php and change line 1851 from
$meta_query = $posts_query->get( ‘meta_query’ );
to
$meta_query = $posts_query->get( ‘meta_query’, array() );
Since the next upgrade will fix that anyway, no issue in changing the bbpress file
best I can offer I’m afraid
