hmm. don’t know what to suggest next.
Can you contact me via my website
http://www.rewweb.co.uk
ok.
1. are you admin and keymaster?
2. do you have phpmyadmin access? (if you don’t know what that is – don’t worry, just say !)
3. what version of bbpress and worpdress are you running?
4. In dashboard – can you see forums topics and replies?
no problem, glad you are fixed
if you create your top forum as a category, then it will not have entries.
so
dashboard>forums>all forums and create or edit a forum
In the forum on the right hand side you will see the options Forum Attributes and types of forum or category
great – thanks for the suggestion in the first place
just looked – continues to be an amazing site. My plans have changed somewhat – I may come back tom it again at a later stage, but I’m fully tied up in other stuff at the moment
none of the above are my sites, but hopefully my style pack plugin helped them look that way !
are you running locally or on a webserver?
I can’t directly tell you when a user moves ranks, as the system works on counting topics and replies as it displays, rather than storing data against each user.
hmmm… not sure what to suggest – looks like there has been some sort of corruption.
Given that you have nothing set up yet, I’d try
dashboard>tools>forums>reset forums
This should delete all the forum data, and hopefully let you start again.
user management info now done in version 2.4 !
so you get the ‘forums’, ‘topics’ and ‘replies’ in dashboard and when you click forums this is what you get?
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.
Then come back
great – glad you’re fixed
is this a new forum, or an existing one that has gone wrong?
no problem – glad you’re fixed
add my plugin
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/
and go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>forum templates and select alternate template
ok, you probably need to reach out to the author of that plugin
let me take a look at how easy that is to do
bit more digging
it would appear that wordpress 4.7 takes out the filter capability
https://github.com/WP-API/WP-API/issues/2964
there is plugin that puts it back
https://github.com/WP-API/rest-filter
Otherwise I think they now want you to filter at the client end.
so http://MY_SITE.COM/wp-json/wp/v2/posts gives you all the posts, and then you pick those that are the right post type.
If you try the plugin above, then I think
http://MY_SITE.COM/wp-json/wp/v2/posts?filter[type]=topic
does it
Please do report progress back !!
Do you know how to put code in your theme’s function file ?
if so add this to it
add_filter( ‘bbp_get_do_not_reply_address’, ‘noreply@swissinformatics.org' );
and that will not get overwritten on upgrade of bbpress plugin
Of course that will need a child theme, as otherwise it will get lost on a theme update !
If any of that not clear (or not possible) come back !
any chance of a link to your site?
