interesting
Do you have phpmyadmin access to your database?
If so then I think you need to be looking to compare the data in posts and postmeta between one that works and one that doesn’t to see what is different.
not tested, but the following in your functions file should do it
you’ll need to edit the code for which role does what
add_action('wp_login', 'rew_assign_role_on_login', 10, 2);
//this function assigns user to bbp roles on login
function rew_assign_role_on_login($user_login, $user) {
$user_id = $user->ID ;
$role = get_role($use_id) ;
if (empty ($role)) return ; //has no role in the database
if ($role == 'administrator' ) $new_role = 'bbp_keymaster' ;
if ($role == 'editor' ) $new_role = 'bbp_moderator' ;
if ($role == 'author' ) $new_role = 'bbp_moderator' ;
if ($role == 'contributor' ) $new_role = 'bbp_participant' ;
if ($role == 'visitor' ) $new_role = 'bbp_blocked' ;
if ($role == 'subscriber' ) $new_role = 'bbp_spectator' ;
bbp_set_user_role( $user_id, $new_role)
}
link to your site and an example please
bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes
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.
it would be code-able, but I don’t know of anything that does this already
I can’t replicate the problem, so hard to say what the issue is
have you amended any files in bbpress?
No problem !
The core issue is with wordpress for fixing !
ok, so the trac ticket says
‘That’s because the dropdown exists at the bottom too which replaces the values from the top on submit.’
just checked and if you change it at the bottom, it works, so do that !
I can’t immediately see what the issue is, but I’ll try and take a deeper look tomorrow
just tested and bulk change isn’t working on my test site either
whilst forums are part of bbpress – I think this is a buddypress question – try posting on there
https://buddypress.org/support/
yes use my provate groups plugin and set visibility
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/
No problem.
I think (but don’t know) that many/most mailservers don’t bother actually sending anything to an address that starts noreply.
I don’t see this issue on my forums, so can only think that the emails just get junked somewhere.
If this was a universal issue, this support forum would be inundated !
Anyway I think you have a solution, so yes agree go for that
yes and no.
In essence you have something wrong with your car. This stage is just about trying to work out which bit of the car !
Whether that part can then be fixed I can’t say until we know which part and can start looking into it !
ok, that opened up a whole new area, and I think I’ve worked out what is happening !
When a new topic/reply is created, bbpress sends a email
to : noreply@vpinball.com
bcc : all the subscribers of that topic
Bbpress changed how this works in a recent version. It used to send an email per user, but many mail servers saw say 200 emails going at once as spam, and blocked them.
So now bbpress sends to an address and blind copies all the users, so that in most cases a single email is sent. This still creates a risk, as some mail servers block multiple bcc’s over a certain number, but is probably better for most sites.
Now the problem with this is that some mailservers will return invalid email addresses, and as your noreply email doesn’t exist, you get a failed.
so you could
1. create the noreply email address on your system, so that a mailbox gets them, and every so often just clear it out.
2. change that noreply email address to a valid email – I can give you code to make it anything you want, but as with 1 above a mailbox will get them so it will fill up.
3. change the code to send emails individually – the old code is somewhere.
Let me know your thoughts

Themes

probably caching software – what caching plugins are you running
so what does the email say?
is it
you are receiving this email because you subscribed to a forum topic. etc.
I take it you neither subscribe to every forum, or have a plugin that does mail type stuff?
ok, so what theme and plugins do you have?

yes you css will need manually adjusting, but I had a look and couldn’t quickly see what in your css was setting that box width so small, but didn’t plough through all the css !
