Whilst it needs sorting in the core product, the ticket says that putting this in the css file will fix, and did on my test site

#bbpress-forums div.bbp-topic-author img.avatar,
#bbpress-forums div.bbp-reply-author img.avatar {

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.

Also can you tell us what language you are set to in

Dashboard>settings>general

Then come back

can you post a copy of your bbpress.php file in something like pastebin, so that we can see it

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 4 months ago]

Thanks for the update – and we’ve all spent hours trying to fix something that was really simple in the end, so I share your frustration !

pulled from a thread I did long ago

I don’t know how code aware you are to change this to what you want, so come back and let me know – it would take me a while to work out what to change, and I really don’t want to do this if you are capable !

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 4 months ago]

just seen this !

https://wordpress.org/plugins/woo-login-redirect/

if you download and unwrap it you’ll see two functions, one the filter above !

Depending on your site it might take a

if (is_bbpress()) $redirect = xxtype statement on line 71

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 4 months ago]

Yes, I’d move it to an internet server and see if the issue persists.

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 4 months ago]

it’ll be a filter on

add_filter( ‘woocommerce_login_redirect’, xxxxxx );

I have woocommerce and bbpress sites, but not one with both !!

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 4 months ago]

2 things to try

http://www.rewweb.co.uk/bbpress-wp4-fix2/
and if that doesn’t work, then try my plugin

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/
to restrict content on bbpress

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 4 months ago]

Can you say which login form?

and have you tried the bbpress login widget?

a url to your site and then login page would also be useful

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 4 months ago]

It sounds as though the developer has put functions in your functions file that are looking for bbpress.

When you say you site goes down – exactly what happens – do you get a fatal error or what exactly happens?

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 4 months ago]

Not at all sure what the question here is.

can you post a url to the problem page and item, and tell us what you want to happen

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 4 months ago]

create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-forum.php
Make a copy of this file, and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-single-forum.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
and you can amend this

amend line 12 to

<ul id="bbp-forum-<?php bbp_forum_id(); ?>" <?php bbp_forum_class('', $classes[] = 'hello' ); ?>>

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 4 months ago]

It could be a theme or plugin issue

Then come back

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 4 months ago]

No, just work your way through !

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 4 months ago]

url please

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 4 months ago]

Uh? can you explain more please, what sort of thumbnail are you expecting?

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 4 months ago]

the issue is not in creating the functionality, but in styling

for instance you get the posts column using bbp_get_forum_topic_count($forum_id)

but need styling to add that to the list of forums, which depends on how your theme does it.

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 4 months ago]

try

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-capabilities/

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 5 months ago]

Great – glad you’re fixed !

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 5 months ago]

ok, sorry been tied up elsewhere, and only just got back to looking at this.

I think I can get it working and would suggest you do the following

1. take a copy of page.php and save it into your theme as bbpress.php

so you end up with

wp-content/themes/%mytheme%/bbpress.php where %mytheme% is your currently active theme’s name.

Now edit that file as follows

The theme seems to be looking for a value of the sidebar for the post meta of the page ID. Since I suspect that bbpress is not having that at that point, it can’t look it up.

Now the page.php (which is now bbpress.php!) tries to set this in line 4 using

$sidebar = get_post_meta($id, "qode_show-sidebar", true);

and then the page.php (which is now bbpress.php!) later on looks for what value between 1 and 4 that is set to, which would determine what if any sidebars are shown.

therefore in bbpress.php try changing line 4 from

$sidebar = 1

save the file and see what happens

then try
$sidebar = 2
$sidebar = 3
$sidebar = 4

each should change what sidebar appears and where, so you should be able to get one working !

Do come back if anything isn’t clear, or if you need further help, or just to tell us that we’re wonderful (or rubbish!)

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 5 months ago]

Just tried that plugin – it errored, but have lodged a supprt ticket.

It would be good to have a plugin that does the buddypress mentions stuff without buddypress !

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 5 months ago]

ok, well I’m out of ideas.

suggest you contact

https://github.com/gbanina

who wrote the fix, and seems to be a guru on optimise and see if he can help.

If you get a solution PLEASE post it here, so that others can benefit

[@robin-w Moderator 9 years, 5 months ago]

thanks for that update !
