@stagger-lee please be more careful with your comments, people are entitled to opinions and you are entitled to disagree. You are not entitled to tell others that they may or may not say.

Up until the last two sentences it was fine, please consider re-wording or removing this last part

hmmm – that’s one I wrote, great that it works, but if it was working before then an update to theme or a plugin will be the cause, but as that fixes no further investigation needed !

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

ok, I think you should try 3 things

1. reset permalinks – I doubt it is this, but always an easy first thing

Dashboard>settings>permalinks and just click save – this resets them

2. try and run repair

Dashboard>tools>forums>repair forums and run one at a time

3. If those 2 fail, the it may well be an update problem, so I’m afraid you’ll need to try this

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

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

no, as I use widgets, so haven’t delved into plugins

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

I haven’t used this one for a while, but probably still works

bbPress Pencil Unread

or this one

bbPress – Mark as Read

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

I’ve done some more digging…

Wordpress uses an embed function to do this, which my simple css changes won’t alter

There are 3 ways to overcome this, as pre this blog

https://kinsta.com/knowledgebase/disable-embeds-wordpress/

The first is a plugin, but that is an old one.

I tested

Disable Embeds

and this worked fine.

dashbaoard>topics>all topics

top right of screen click ‘screen options’

change ‘number of items per page’ to 999 and you can delete 999 at a time, it will take while to refresh but only 4 times needed to get rid of 3400

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

Pascal (@casiepa) has been in touch with the bbpress topics for posts author, and Pascal is taking it over, so expect an updated version soon.

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

you have warning triangles next to each, so it doesn’t like something.

Try typing one rather than copy/paste and see if that makes a difference

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

you will also need to change the fonts as it is currently black, so also add these

.wp-embed {
	color: #fff !important;
}

and

.wp-embed-heading a {
	color: #fff !important;
}

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

Easiest way is to change the display using css. Add these to your theme custom css

remove logo by

.wp-embed-footer {
	display: none !important;
}

and change the background via

.wp-embed {
	background: #000 !important;
}

new forum? old forum stopped working? converted forum? just started happening? been happening for ages ? what have you upgraded?

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

you’ll need to explain what exactly you are doing – ie what do you mean by ‘product’ and how are you copying it and pasting it

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

thanks for the update

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

see above – big difference between personal data, data used to identify and content – 3 different things.

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

what do you mean by ‘NOT showing the topic contents’ – do you mean the topic displays, but the content area is blank, or that the whole topic doesn’t display?

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

just tried it using a simulator

http://mobiletest.me/

and yes it doesn’t appear.

suggest you add it to the main menu

lots of plugins that will do this eg

Login Logout Register Menu

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

link to site please

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

not suggesting that this is a substitute for password reset – you need that capability as well.

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

great – glad you are fixed

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

can be lots of things

go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack> and tab ‘not working?’ and follow the guide in there

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

the no follow is added at output, not on saving.

so we need to see if the topic/reply is written by an admin or editor and then remove the filter that does the no-follow

This coded is untested, but should work

add_filter ('bbp_get_topic_content' , 'follow_topic_if_admin' , 10 , 2) ;

function follow_topic_if_admin ($content, $topic_id) {
	$user_id = bbp_get_topic_author_id( $topic_id ) ;
	$user_meta=get_userdata($user_id);
	$user_roles=$user_meta->roles;
	$allowed_roles = array('editor', 'administrator');
	if( array_intersect($allowed_roles, $user_roles ) ) { 
		remove_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_content', 'bbp_rel_nofollow',   50   );
	}
return apply_filters( 'follow_topic_if_admin', $content, $topic_id );
}

add_filter ('bbp_get_reply_content' , 'follow_reply_if_admin' , 10 , 2) ;

function follow_reply_if_admin ($content, $reply_id) {
	$user_id = bbp_get_reply_author_id( $reply_id ) ;
	$user_meta=get_userdata($user_id);
	$user_roles=$user_meta->roles;
	$allowed_roles = array('editor', 'administrator');
	if( array_intersect($allowed_roles, $user_roles ) ) { 
		remove_filter( 'bbp_get_reply_content', 'bbp_rel_nofollow',   50   );
	}
return apply_filters( 'follow_reply_if_admin', $content, $reply_id );
}

Add this to your functions file.

Let me know if it works

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

however when I went to bbpress styler and that settings, they only have a login and register and no password reset.. and NO profile that I can see

‘register’ changes to profile if you are logged in – as you can have a profile if you are not logged in, and you wouldn’t want to register if you are logged in !!

and from profile you get password reset

The link looks good, suggest you try

2.

I would like to run the bbpress forums without BuddyPress, if possible. Is there a solution to this issue?

yes bbpress runs quite happily on its own – my bbpress sites run without buddypress.

3.

An engaging business community giving credit to people who take the time to submit comprehensive organizational case studies

beyond ‘support desk’ help I’m afraid – it is do-able but lots and lots of bespoke coding needed (The site is not a bbpress one) . My style pack would help in getting a nicer look

bbp style pack

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 7 months ago]

1. I don’t think I can’t help you further
4. this is theme related and will need css to fix beyond help here – sorry
5. probably theme related – again I can’t really help
