I have a WP-Members profile that shows up when a logged-in user chooses “My Profile” from the drop down list on the Home tab on my website:

https://lemonstograpes.com/home

(WordPress 6.0)

I would like the user’s WP profile information to have a link that would take the user to their bbPress Forum profile. I have no idea how to do this (not a programmer).

My current solution is to include the following text at the bottom of the user’s WP-Members profile:

(Note: User Profile information that provides forum related detail is accessed by clicking the picture [avatar] that appears beside a Forum post.)

I fully understand – you have an issue where one forum is not showing. Given that showing these forums are settings within your theme or LMS, not within bbpress, then it most likely that it is a setting somewhere within this.

so you can try one last thing

dashboard>settings>permalinks and just click save – this resets the permalinks and may help

then if you srea still convinced that it is not theme or plugin, you can prove this using

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.

Plugins

If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

i think it is lifterLMS and theme is LifterLMS launchpad child, and we have also “Restrict – membership, site, content and user access restrictions for WordPress” plugin, but I dont think that error is in this plugins, because other categories of forum work.

bbpress gives you the forum

buddypress and/or this should give you the messages

Hi! I have problem in bbpress forum, we have bbpress forum on our page on this link https://bmedic-online.cz/diskuzni_fora/. You can see whole forum, but in individual categories you have no access, but when you click “Biologie” or “Chemie” it announces you that you have no privilege. Every category works, but “Fyzika” doesnt. Even if you try to enter “Fyzika”, none announcement appear. I am including screenshots of it. On screenshots on “forum.png” you can see whole forum, and when i click on category “Chemie” and “Biologie” it forwards to forum depicted on screen “chemie_forum.png” and “biologie_forum.png”. But when i click on “Fyzika” category, nothing shows up, and it is interesting that icons in admin panel dont show up (in red rectangle on “fyzika_forum.png”).
I dont understand what happend, nobody changed anything.

bbpress version is updated to newest, and wordpress is 5.9.
Link to google drive for screens is here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1fKEU15U9GzHaC9KwXJ_XhGe8mSI7HVeC?usp=sharing

Can somebody help me?

ok, I’ve found time to take an initial look at this.

The function called looks at a database item which holds the sub forum count – but it looks like this is just count of public forums, so the count is zero, so none displayed.

so removing looking at this takes away the issue.

It would take a deal of work to see why and how to make a permanent fix to this, and I think this filter will do what you want

add_filter('bbp_forum_get_subforums', 'rew_forum_get_subforums', 10, 3);

function rew_forum_get_subforums( $sub_forums, $r, $args ) {

	// Default return value
	$retval = array();
	
	// Use passed integer as post_parent
	if ( is_numeric( $args ) && ! empty( $args ) ) {
		$args = array( 'post_parent' => bbp_get_forum_id( $args ) );
	}

	// Parse arguments against default values
	$r = bbp_parse_args( $args, array(
		'post_parent'         => 0,
		'post_type'           => bbp_get_forum_post_type(),
		'posts_per_page'      => get_option( '_bbp_forums_per_page', 50 ),
		'orderby'             => 'menu_order title',
		'order'               => 'ASC',
		'ignore_sticky_posts' => true,
		'no_found_rows'       => true
	), 'forum_get_subforums' );

	// Ensure post_parent is properly set
	$r['post_parent'] = bbp_get_forum_id( $r['post_parent'] );
	
	
	// Query if post_parent has subforums
	if ( ! empty( $r['post_parent'] )  ) {
		$get_posts = new WP_Query();
		$retval    = $get_posts->query( $r );
	}
	// Filter & return
	return (array) apply_filters( 'rew_forum_get_subforums', $retval, $r, $args );
	
}

Put this in your child theme’s function file –

ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php

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

or use

not directly a bbpress plugin issue – might be better to post this into that plugins support forum

I set up a test forum and created a private category with two sub-forums inside. On forum index the category is shown with its two sub-forums listed below it, as intended.

Once I post a topic in one of the sub-forums the list disappears below the category on forum index. I can still see them if I click on the category however.

It’s similar to this bug here, but it doesn’t seem to matter if there’s a description or not
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2085

The bug only happen when the category is private or hidden. Should I do a bug report about it? Is there any known solutions?

WordPress: 6.0
Plugins: bbPress 2.6.9
Theme: Tried various WordPress default themes.

Thank you in advance

[Robin W]

ok, so presuming this is in any topic, then if you fancy sharing the shortcode you are using and the php code, I might take a look at that

Outside of your php code, I’d suggest it could be a theme or plugin issue

Hi,

I’m creating this topic on the off chance that somebody else might have experienced a similar thing and can point me in the right direction as to what has caused this.

So for unknown reasons, all forums and posts suddenly disappeared completely from our WordPress instance. They are not in the trash and I also couldn’t locate them in the database anymore. No plugin updates or any other suspicious actions have been performed that I know of which could’ve been behind this.

Also, this didn’t happen to our DEV instance which is essentially in the same state in terms of active plugins etc.

Anyone ever heard of something like this happening? I’m not so much concerned about restoring the lost forums because it was only test forums and test posts so far. But I don’t want to have this happen in the future with actual forums and posts on there. I know that backups can be made, but then there’d still be the content you’d lose in-between performing them manually.

We are using bbPress in conjunction with LearnPress and it was forums tied to a LearnPress course that were lost (we didn’t have any ‘free-standing’ ones), if that provides any hints.

Thanks in advance for your help!

[Robin W]

great – have a look at this as an additional plugin it adds many features – it also lists other bbpress plugins

bbp style pack

[Robin W]

I am not a bbpress author, but had been a moderator here for 7 or more years.

bbpress continues to be maintained, but releases are generally not frequent.

bbpress works with wordpress 6.x.

bbpress is stable, indeed it is used by WordPress as the main support tool for plugins, themes and WordPress itself, and is written by some of the main WordPress contributors so complies with WordPress standards.

There are many additional plugins for it which add functionality and design features – indeed several are written by me 🙂

This is a WordPress error, usually associated with a failed nonce (short for ‘number once’).

These nonce keys are generated for your website to verify that, for example, a script is run by you, and not an external source. This prevents intruders from altering or abusing your forms, URLs, AJAX calls, etc.

amongst many times, a nonce will be generated when you land on a bbpress page with a form on it – eg a new topic or new reply form.

This article explains possible causes

fixing error

In your case I’d suspect that this is not caused by a plugin or theme, but rather through expiration of the nonce through either other actions eg possibly you moving away from the page creating the nonce and then going back to it, or possibly a memory limit.

I look at 2, 3 & 5 first

I’m administrating a small forum currently on open source Vanilla, but they seem to discontinue their open source version and I’m looking for other solutions. Since we’re also already on WordPress bbPress seems like a choice to look into, but I’m worried we’ll get into the same situation again with the software being discontinued or outdated.

When I installed bbPress I noticed it said untested with the current version of WordPress, but also it does seem to be updated the past year so there may be no problem.

I need to ask though if bbPress is alive and planning to be alive for the future?
Are there any security concerns with it being updated so rarely or that’s perfectly fine?

Thank you in advance!

[Robin W]

ok, then this is probably an issue with email itself – see

bbpress just uses wordpress registration.

I’d sugggest you check that your site is sending emails, there are lots of plugins that do this, but maybe using

Check & Log Email

Hi
I have created a forum, I have a course, but I just cannot get the forum to show on the course.

Ideally, I’d like the forum to be in a group, but can only find instructions on having a forum with a course. I have the course, I have the forum, but I just can’t get the forum to show on the course.

I’ve looked everywhere and spent all day trying to figure it out.

I use the bbpress plugin for Learndash, on WordPress.com

Hello

There is an issue where I can not delete any BBPress/Wordpress user as when I do the server gives internal error 500.

Either from the Buddypress frontend or from the WordPress users admin panel.

I looked at the error logs and can see
“mod_fcgid: read data timeout in 31 seconds”

I tried updating this in apache to 60, but it seems to not have done anything.

When a reply is posted, 2 email notifications are sent out to users: see #1 AND #2 below.

#1. email format (template): I want only this one to be sent! I created it in bbPress Notify (No spam).

Hello! A new reply has been posted by Jane Carole.

Excerpt

Source: Created by me in bbPress Notify
This one is sent out and has the correct format and contents.
It is the only one I want to send.

#2. email format (template): I do not want this one to be sent.

Jane Carole posted new reply:

Source: I don’t know where this one is coming from.
It is automatically sent right after #1 is sent.

In summary:

I need to stop #2, but don’t know how. I think maybe it is the bbpress default email text. (I used bbPress Style pack, Subscription emails tab, and checked the box that allows me to enter different email body text, but the changes I make (in instructions 4-9 of that tab) aren’t applied and used even though I save them. The default text keeps appearing.

I thought that The bbPress Notify plugin would stop any other email notifications (I marked override subscriptions), but for some reason that isn’t happening.

Help please! (I am posting this again because for some reason when I posted it earlier today it was wrongly marked as spam!)

[Robin W]

yes it does !

can’t see an easy fix – it’s not a question I have seen before, so suspect that it is a rare search
