Having done a little digging in the CSS that “bbp style pack” creates, I THINK I have isolated the buttons to the class of

#bbpress-forums.button{
background-color:#9e9e9e
color: 000000
}

… which is the correct grey / black that the editor buttons SHOULD be. But it seems that something after that is picking up the theme colours, and setting it to those. (Unless there is some code earlier that is !IMPORTANT! that is setting it.

Also, “bbPress” seems to have a mind of it’s own, disregarding settings made within WordPress. For example, the editor has been set up with two rows of buttons … but “bbPress” will only display the default 12 or 13 buttons in one row, (and not even those match what’s been set up elsewhere in WordPress) The same plugin that sets up two rows of buttons has an option with “Don’t use visual editor in bbPress” Guess what … “bbPress” loaded the visual editor anyway.

Another plugin states “Switch this on to use the membership profile rather than the bbPress profile” Turn that on, and … rather than link to the profile, the link shows “#” so that it simply reloads the same page. And the big profile button (beside “Create Topic”) STILL jumps to the bbPress profile !!

OK, appreciate that some of those things are bbPress not accepting the settings of the other plugins … but it gets somewhat annoying when you bat your head against a brick wall all day!

I’m running 2.6.6 on 5.7 on my test sites, all I can suggest is

it could be a theme or plugin issue

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

Is bbPress 2.6.6 compatible with WordPress 5.7 ?

@tintinmilou – thanks, and this is a known issue

Hi,

We are having the following issues after we have updated the bbPress plugin version to 2.6.6.

1.) Topic favorites and subscription button are missing.

We’ve actually checked the template file where those buttons were being displayed and the functions that shows those buttons were not here anymore. We’re wondering if there’s any reason why it was removed on the latest plugin version update.

2.) When user subscribe to a forum, the forum is not listed on the “Subscribe Forums” page under members page. e.g. /members/111/forums/subscriptions/

WordPress version: 5.6.1
BuddyPress version: 7.2.1(latest)

[Robin W]

there are many additional plugins which add functionality to bbpress, just as there are for almost all the popular wordpress plugins (eg woocommerce, contact form 7 etc. all have a host of additional plugins)

Just add style pack and enjoy 🙂

[Robin W]

if you have one forum and one topic, you probably don’t need a statistics widget 🙂

However I’ve logged a defect

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3428#ticket

[Robin W]

I’d suggest you install

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Forum Display

and/or

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>forum templates

[flamuren]

I tried this [bbp-single-forum id=1] on a new testpage and it did not show anything – just a blanc wordpress page. Do I need to write anything else than [bbp-single-forum id=1] to make it work?

[3dpoder]

I mean running the script through the shell console on the server.
I am not sure that it is working correctly via the WordPress administration panel.

I’m having the same problem, and I am using twenty-twenty theme.
When I activate BBPRess, I get a message stating that it hasn’t been tested on my version of WordPress, currently up to date on version 5.7.
I’ve deleted BBPress and re-installed and activated it, and the commands still don’t appear.

[Robin W]

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

you might want to look at

Private groups

here you can set up a group – say called ‘members’ and allocate forums and users to that group.

This will automatically show forums/topics/replies to logged in members, but otherwise hide them.

There are widgets in this plugin for recent topics and replies which will hide these

[Robin W]

sorry, but you are assuming that your site is exactly the same as everyone else’s.

I have no idea how you are creating these menu items, and suspect is a wordpress not bbpress question.

If you would care to give a link to your site rather than images I might be able to hep further.

At the moment all you are doing is showing me pictures of your car and asking how to mend the engine 🙂

[dnfoz45]

I left Blogger and came to WordPress, and there are things that are so complicated, I never thought that to remove a category from the menu would be something so complicated

[Robin W]

The quickest way will be to turn on debugging in wordpress and come back with tne exact error you are getting

I Can’t see the images, but from the sound you might need

bbp style pack

bbpress sends from the address to this address with BCC to each subscriber.

This works for some sites, not for others.

This plugin whilst old, still works well
