In any case thanks for your time!
Hope developers will fix this bug soon.
Currently, this bug can be fixed using the code below.
Also, Replies box should be moved below Custom Fields
/* Fix BBpress 2.6 bug with Custom Fields */
if( function_exists( 'bbp_get_version' ) && version_compare( bbp_get_version(), '2.5' ) > 0 ) {
add_action( 'wp_ajax_add-reply', 'wp_ajax_add_fix_bbpress_26');
function wp_ajax_add_fix_bbpress_26() {
// print_error_log( $_POST );
// $_POST['action'] = 'add-meta';
wp_ajax_add_meta();
}
add_action( 'wp_ajax_delete-reply', 'wp_ajax_delete_fix_bbpress_26');
function wp_ajax_delete_fix_bbpress_26() {
// print_error_log( $_POST );
wp_ajax_delete_meta();
}
add_action( 'add_meta_boxes', 'bbpress_26_fix_add_meta_boxes', 25 );
function bbpress_26_fix_add_meta_boxes() {
do_action( 'bbp_topic_attributes_metabox' );
}
}
This report already exists in the bbpress track.

No – it should save after pressing “Add Custom Field”
Also delete/update the field and other related options should be work without saving whole topic.
topic as draft
There is no matter. Such functionality doesn’t exist by default.
The error occurs with any topic status. Main – the topic must be saved.
Same with a completely new site with a default theme.
This is two simple steps for reproducing the bug
1) Save a new topic as a draft
2) Write any data to custom fields and press “Add Custom Field”
I use the next code in functions.php
add_filter('bbp_get_topic_post_type_supports', 'register_bbpress_topic_type_supports');
function register_bbpress_topic_type_supports( $args ) {
$args[] = 'excerpt';
$args[] = 'thumbnail';
$args[] = 'custom-fields';
return $args ;
}
I used custom fields with bbpress topics and reply.
