Since my most recent update of WordPress, I’ve had an issue with new users being able to post replies despite their status being “awaiting email confirmation”. As you can imagine, this had led to an influx of spam messages on the site.
I’m assuming that as part of the update, some setting was changed to turn this on be default, but i have no idea how to turn it back off. Could anyone advise me?
Currently using WordPress 5.3.2 running Twenty Seventeen theme using Version 2.6.4 at http://wamlibrary.com/forums/
I deactivate all plugins except for bbpress, test to register but failed still.
set up email to come from my site eg @mysite.com and
contact my host provider (SG) to help – problem still.
I install https://wordpress.org/plugins/check-email/
admin accepted test email.
but problem still too.now I deactivate plugin check-email.
SG help me to set plugin”WP Mail SMTP” .problem still too.
hope can assist me. thanks a lot.
Hi
I imported a topic with WP All Import (CSV), i can see the topic in wordpress back end (Wp-admin –> Topic) but in front end (Forum) not showing.
yes see no reason not to delete it, bbpress just uses standard WordPress tables (post, postmeta and options) BUT, I would use phpmyadmin and export it first, so you have a backup just in case!
now I’ve got that out of my system, try
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Topic/Reply Form
Getting “A variable mismatch has been detected.” error when trying to Move or Split a Topic or Reply as the Admin from the frontend. I’m using the most recent versions of BBPress, WordPress, PHP, and using the FreeLance Theme.
Any help appreciated.
Hi there
I recently installed bbPress on the WordPress website of our neighbourhood assistance.
We realy need this forum working since we have to coordinate assistance during the coronavirus lockdown here in Zurich (Switzerland).
It seems that there is a bug in regard to threaded replies. I checked out older topics in this support forum but nothing helped. Replies to replies do not work. if I click ‘Reply’, focus jumps to the bottom of the topic and the reply is placed there.
I appreciate any quick help very much so we can reach out to those who offer help and those who need assistance.
Wordpress: 5.3.2

Wow…Thanks for these code.
I tested it on my test site with newmag wordpress theme by tagdiv and it worked.
But on the main site, I’m using Jnews Child theme. I tried it, but it did not work. Perhaps it because I don’t know which function.php to use; main theme or child theme funtion. Tried with child theme, but it did not work.
I’ve put that change in my site and submitted the patch in the trac. The best thing is that you reported this 4 months ago!! https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3297
I’m checking this very old plugin
bbPress Go To First Unread Post
Isn’t this implemented by default in bbpress nowadays?
They may have quit working on it.
I did some digging through their code, and came up with something for you to try if you want.
You’ll add the below code to your theme’s functions.php file, once you add the code and save the file. Reload your WordPress admin area by refreshing the page/browser, then remove the code and re-save the file.
Go to your discussions page, and try out that button(Apply settings to existing posts) again and see if it works for you.
if(!function_exists('bbppt_reset_topics_for_posts_meta_fix')){
function bbppt_reset_topics_for_posts_meta_fix(){
$args = array(
'meta_key' => 'bbpress_discussion_comments_copied',
'post_type' => 'post',
'post_status' => 'any',
'posts_per_page' => -1
);
$posts = get_posts($args);
if($posts){
foreach ($posts as $post) {
delete_post_meta( $post->ID, 'bbpress_discussion_topic_id');
delete_post_meta( $post->ID, 'bbpress_discussion_comments_copied');
$comments = get_comments( array( 'post_id' => $post->ID, 'order' => 'ASC' ) );
if($comments){
foreach ($comments as $comment) {
delete_comment_meta( $comment->comment_ID, 'bbppt_imported');
}
}
}
}
}
add_action( 'admin_init', 'bbppt_reset_topics_for_posts_meta_fix' );
}
Put this in your child theme’s function file – or use

if ( bbp_has_topics( $topics_query ) )
while( bbp_topics() ) {
bbp_the_topic();
$topic_id = bbp_get_topic_id();
$last_active = strtotime( get_post_meta( $topic_id, '_bbp_last_active_time', true ) );
if ($last_active < strtotime( '-10 days') )
bbp_close_topic( $topic_id );
}
}

Is there a programme/plugin for Archive settings where I can archive topics after a given amount of time, e.g. 3 months, to tidy up forums?
Thanks in advance
Jo
if you want to improve the code, just add an item to my support page
https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bbp-style-pack/
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Forum Templates
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Freshness Display
Hi,
Did you try asking the developer of that plugin?
You can post on their support page here:https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bbpress-post-topics/, other users of that plugin might be able to help if you post on there.
Oh sorry, no it doesn’t do that, it just emails the user you mention.
This one https://wordpress.org/plugins/comment-mention/, seems to show the mentions block you’re wanting, but looks like it would need to be changed to work in the bbPress comment editor.
Sorry, I guess this is still an open ticket, right?

Hi there,
We seem to be getting some discrepancies around the panels which include the following for example:
—
‘This forum has 3 topics, and was last updated 3 weeks, 5 days ago by Name Surname.’
Viewing 4 topics – 1 through 4 (of 4 total)
—
Sadly on our set-up, these stats don’t seem to be matching up to the actual real edits, ie it states 3 topics, when there are 4, which you can see by the second line the system displays, it says ‘Viewing 4 topics’ yet above it says there are only 3 topics?
Is this standard, and maybe we are just misunderstanding what it’s counting? If anyone has any advise that would be so much appreciated :).
We are using:
– WordPress v: WordPress 5.3.2
– bbPress v: Version 2.6.4
– Sadly can’t include a link as it’s behind a login restricted area but we can liaise if anyone can help and facilitate this access
Thanks ever so much,
Tonya
not used elementor, but this should let you style bbpress
