Hi All,

In the WordPress log file, I am getting error

[21-Dec-2019 07:42:06 UTC] WordPress database error You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ')' at line 1 for query SELECTidFROM wp_posts WHEREpost_parentIN () made by require('wp-blog-header.php'), require_once('wp-includes/template-loader.php'), apply_filters('template_include'), WP_Hook->apply_filters, call_user_func_array, bbp_template_include, apply_filters('bbp_template_include'), WP_Hook->apply_filters, call_user_func_array, bbp_template_include_theme_compat, bbp_buffer_template_part, bbp_get_template_part, bbp_locate_template, load_template, require('/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/content-single-user.php'), bbp_get_template_part, bbp_locate_template, load_template, require('/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/user-topics-created.php'), bbp_get_user_topics_started, bbp_has_topics, bbp_parse_args, apply_filters('bbp_after_has_topics_parse_args'), WP_Hook->apply_filters, call_user_func_array, _bbp_has_topics_query, apply_filters('bbp_has_topics_query'), WP_Hook->apply_filters, call_user_func_array, bbps_lock_to_author, bbps_get_all_premium_topic_ids

Can anyone suggest what might be an issue to this?

I am trying to display an image within the content area of a topic,
as illustrated in this image…

I am using bbpress 2.6.3 and WordPress 5.3.2.

Please help.
Thanks

depends on what you mean by safe?

in virus terms, it is as safe as allowing guests to comment on posts. On saving, WordPress checks for code, but there is never 100% guarantee.

The revolution slider plugin was the route used to get the Panama Papers, but it has to be said that there firewall was crap, so you can never consider WordPress to be 100% secure.

The most common issue is spam and links to bad sites – expect to get these and need to keep an eye out for them.

bbpress just uses WordPress login, so suggest you investigate authentication of WordPress

google around – I got

https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/268665/set-up-wp-authentication-from-external-api

from a google of ‘wordpress login using 3rd party credentials’

Hello!

I’m not sure, whether I have the same issue or a different one. I have simple forum structure with a forum list and every forum has a topic list. You may take a look at my forum list.

The features

• You don’t need to log in to read.
• The first forum is read-only for all users except the admin.
• Anyone can register and gets write-permission to all forums except the first one (Loginizer and Akismet in use).
• The forum with most topics gets its topics from posts by the plugin “bbPress Topics for Posts“. Despite being old the plugin has worked flawlessly until the most recent update

The issue

• Some of the forums have kept displaying “juuri nyt” (just now) since the update, because some of their topics show the same freshness.

What I have tried

• recalculated everything
• disabled the plugin “bbPress Topics for Posts” and recalculated everything
• changed to the Twenty Twenty theme and recalculated everything

but in vain. Is this caused/related by the bug #3297? Any pointers appreciated.

[Robin W]

a question for WordPress.com – I’m afraid I have no idea

[Jason Dao]

I’m a newbie, so please be kind. Is it correct that plugins (except ecommerce ones) are not available for wordpress.com sites? Is there any way to install bbpress onto a wordpress.com website?

Thanks.

Hi,
I installed BBpress on my site and it goes well for two month.
Suddenly i faced 503 error in reply page of admin side
I repaired forum but nothing was solved , I reset the froum and it solved the problem
but i need my forum data and as soon as i import them with wordpress as XML , again the error comes back!
what should i do now ? do you have any idea?

[Robin W]

if you are not familiar with css, then suggest you use my style pack plugin

bbp style pack

in settings, you’ll find a tab for the topic/reply form

Thank you very much for the feedback.

Which “upgrade routines”?? Where were any special instructions given?

We installed it like all other plug-in updates from the WordPress Dashboard -> Updates

[John James Jacoby]

Is it possible that when you updated to 2.6 you ignored the Upgrade routines?

If so, you may want to try reinstalling bbPress 2.6.3, as a last minute fix went in after it was originally packaged.

https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/bbpress.2.6.3.zip

If I’m correct, then you will also want to consider running the database upgrades soon. Forums with over 10k users need to do it manually, in your Admin > Tools > Forums > Upgrades

[John James Jacoby]

Engagements.php received a last minute fix specifically for code that is running on WordPress.org. Your best bet is to simply ignore the warning and wait for 2.6.4 to be released next week.

[John James Jacoby]

This should get worked on, but because bbPress does not use TinyMCE by default, and because image uploads are not enabled by default, it is likely to be a low priority fix.

Created https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3304.

[Scaffies]

Here is maybe a better example – the matter remains unresolved.

after the 2.6.2/2.6.3 upgrade these issues came up:

– the “Favorite” option is now on the left, instead of being in front of the “Subscribe” option on the right

– the content of the topic is now limited to the space until the options (Edit, CLose, Stick, etc) start, reducing the content with to about 50% for admins (as shown below), and reduced by about 20% for regular members with fewer options.

The high-resolution picture in the example below should fill in the entire content area to its full width (but only shows half-size).

Since this started with the upgrade, it is reasonable to assume it is directly related to bbpress.

A solution would be really (!) helpful.

We use the DynamiX theme (since over 6 years), now in version 5.
Wordpress and all plugins in their current versions.

Thanks!!

Hi,
I was asked to add a forum to our corporate website using bbPress. Based on what I have seen so far it is not hard or complicated to install, configure and use. However, the second part of the request has me stumped. The requirement is not to ask the user to create a new account but rather use the credentials they provided in a third party software to authentication. This third party software provides an API endpoint for authentication. So I need to send the username and password to the third party software to verify the user. If the API returns success then the user can use the forum.

I assume that a user account still needs to be created in WordPress for bbPress to tag the user’s name to his or her posts. Is this a correct assumption?

How can I implement this solution? Is there a plugin out there that I can use or can I write some modification to bbPress to achieve this task?

Here is the info you required.
WordPress: 5.3
bbPress: Version: 2.6.3

Hi,

Can we know how to create bb shortcode to hide portion content (text or URL) in the post or replies?

for example, only logged-in users can view some content/URL in the post/replies.

I saw lots articles to make this work in WordPress post, but could not find for Bbpress.

Please help.

thanks

[Scaffies]

In non-bbpress related user displays, the spacing works as before (if that makes any difference in the troubleshooting):

[Scaffies]

Hello,

we noticed another small thing after the upgrade:

there is no longer a space between the vatar and the username (displayname) in the widgets listing the forum posts and replies. This started with the upgrade, before there were a few pixels space.

Here is an example:

Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

Thank you for the answer, @robin-w.
when I Enable WP_DEBUG – wordpress wp-config.php
define( 'WP_DEBUG', true );
the errors occur…

bbPress – Moderation Tools

still works as far as I know.

I have the GD Power Search plugin installed and raised a query here:

https://wordpress.org/support/topic/searching-is-broken/

They stated:

The bbPress search requires to have the search term/keyword present. As a workaround, right now, you can set the keyword to minus sign: -.

But I find that even that is not working on my site.

What are the expected rules for performing searches? With this extra form I can seach by author or tag etc but doesn’t seem quite right.

After updating 2.6.3, the following error occurs.

Notice: Undefined variable: topic_id in E:\xampp-2\htdocs\test\wp2\wp-content\plugins\bbpress\includes\replies\template.php on line 456

Wordpress 5.3, bbPress 2.6.3

When you create a reply to a reply, a “_bbp_reply_to” postmeta row is NOT created; so everything ends up being a reply to the main topic, as opposed to a reply to another reply.

Specifically the URL https://mywebsite.org/forums/topic/newest-topic/?bbp_reply_to=49888&_wpnonce=78c211457a#new-post

that initiates creation of the reply, the “bbp_reply_to=49888” part of the URL is not being assigned to the created reply’s metapost ‘_bbp_reply_to’ data row.

As a result, the hierarchical nature of replies is not reflected on the UI, nor in the database.

[Scaffies]

Hello,

after upgrading to v2.6.2 we now see all topic posts smaller than before, indented by the options above each topic. This is for the topics only, all replies to the topics look normal.

For admins with more options, it reduces the topic width to 50% … so it is an issue.
For all regular members with only 3 available options, topic width is reduced by ~20%.

Here is a screenshot – the pics and video at the left should fill out the entire width:

Latest version of WordPress and all other plugins.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Wordpress 5.3 bbpress 2.6.2

Hi,
I would like to create a link to the list of subscribed topics in the page menu in a bbpress forum. Since I use wp user manager as logon widget, unfortunately this does not include it. The bbpress login widget is not used because you can not upload a photo when editing the profile and because many fields are displayed that I do not use. Wp usermanager I could restrict to the fields User-Display-Name, Firstname, Lastname and E.Mail-Address.

In order to be able to display lists like subscriptions and favorites, I would like to create the following link in the sidebar that works in my text widget:
“Abonnierte Themen”

“Test-1234” is a sample user that works with the above link in the text widget .. “test-1234” should be replaced by a variable with the display user name, thus linking each logged in user to his own subscription list leads.

Or would it be better to write a plugin widget? Then I’ll learn how to do.

Since I am new to WordPress and bbpress and also have little experience with PHP, I ask for help how to solve it.
Thank you and greetings from the Lake of Konstanz,
Klaus
