the ‘fix’ relates to post_parent in wp_posts – the original 4.4 change was something to do with trash status of a post parent I believe, but I have no proof of that.
great – thanks for that update – v useful
I believe that simply toggling the private/public visibility with a save in between fixes if you have downgraded back to 4.3.1, so at the moment my post above stands – unless anyone knows different….
what I don’t know is if you just upgrade and add casiepa’s fix, does that fix?
ok, so as far as I can work out.
If you are staying with 4.4 then implement the following
open wp-includes/post.php, scroll to about line 4300 to find function get_page_uri( $page )
In that function replace
if ( 'publish' === $parent->post_status ) {
with
if ( ! in_array( $parent->post_status, get_post_stati( array( 'internal' => true ) ) ) ){
If you revert to 4.3.x, then the upgrade will have altered the database, so you need to go into each forum and toggle visibility public/private status , saving in between. So if private, toggle to public and save and then toggle back and save again. If public, do the reverse.
Not sure of you need to do that if you stay with 4.4
Should all be fixed in 4.4.1.
If anyone thinks different, please come back – would be good to have a single definitive post saying what users should do
If anyone has different exper
I’ve just had another client who upgraded to 4.4 and then reverted to still have the problem.
He fixed it by toggling each forum between public and private and saving in between.
He didn’t need to alter anything within my plugin, or the forum groups within the forum, just the forum visibility
thanks for the update and your help – really appreciate it
so did you need to do both to get it working, and in which order
sorry – I haven’t read in detail this whole thread – do you need to do something else as well as
I used the following procedure:
◾Go to you dashboard > forums
◾“Edit” a forum
◾At the Forum Groups box deselect all groups (That box is added by bbPress private groups)
◾At the Forum Attributes box set visibility to Public
◾Choose Update
And now, revert to the previous settings:
◾Re-select/check the Forum Groups,
◾Re-apply visibility to Private
◾Choose Update
?
@shades404 – I am the author of private groups.
I don’t know why you fix would work, but if it does then great, and others should try this. Can you let me know if you’re using buddypress as well please.
Given that there is a bug with 4.4 which @netweb says will be fixed in 4.4.1, I’d prefer not to try and fix within my plugin, as I’d need to work out a workaround, and then unfix this when the 4.4.1 comes out.
As long as @shades404’s fix works, then I’ll recommend this – can anyone else verify this, and come back on this thread to see if it is a good fix?
sorry I am fully tied up in a website development the moment, so i’m unable to help at this time
Tecca, thanks and great that you are now fixed !
If you want to delete everything bbpress datawise and start again then
Dashboard>tools>forums>reset forums
sorry that it doesn’t work with multisite – only so much free time I can give to coding plugins 🙂
Try adding !important – your theme may be overriding the settings viz
Layout and functionality – Examples you can use
you can use the shortcode [bbp-topic-index] in a new page – this will show the latest 15 topics across all forums with pagination.
