I’m just a guy sat in his kitchen trying to help others, I am not paid to do this.

It is entirely relevant in that they may well be a reason why trashed posts are added, without knowing when and why the function is called and how it is used, it is impossible to say that the code is wrong.

I agree that a filter before that or variable passed would be helpful, but bbpress is not being actively worked on at the moment so it is unlikely that this would get updated.

If you want to flag this, raise a ticket on https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/

You might want to use bbp_get_public_child_ids or use the filter at the end of the function to as you say ‘override’ the setting, or if you are using this function directly, then simply create your own version of it.

ok the code above will not help, and should be removed.

I’d guess that because the subscription messages are being sent from ‘noreply@’ you website, your email system is rejecting this as an invalid address.

Try installing

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Subscription Emails

and change the address in item 1 to the email address that you are getting valid site emails from, and see if that solves.

ok, if you know how, I’d take out that old solution and use

bbp style pack

which has a solution for it

Hi

I’m having the same issue with notifications of replies and new topics not being sent by email.

Plugins installed:
Simple WordPress Membership
bbPress
bbp style pack (notifications enabled)
bbPress Members Only (forum set to members only with all other pages visible)
bbPress Notify (No Spam)
Check & log email (nothing logged in tests)
Code Snippets (original code above added)
Easy WP SMTP (confirmed that other emails are sending successfully, eg notification of new member registrations via Simple Membership)
WP Notification Bell (new replies ARE showing up here)

I’ve run tests with replies and new topics for a test user subscribed to everything (and directly to the topic used to test replies), and am still not getting any emails. Have, of course, checked the spam folder.

I’d appreciate any suggestions for troubleshooting.

Thank you!

Site: thecardinalnation.com
WordPress 6.4.3
bbPress 2.6.9
MySQL 7.4

Roughly weekly over the last six months, my entire WordPress site slows down to a stop with 504 errors experienced by users for 10-20 minutes at a time. CPU utilization on my dedicated server goes from 20% to close to 100%.

My hosting provider WPEngine suspects bbPress is spiking MySQL with long-running queries.

Here is what WPEngine Support told me in one of my exchanges with them.

“Most past mysql queries were generated by this file:
/nas/content/live/thecardinalnat/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/widgets.php:1096

“Something about the query on line 1096 of that file is causing spikes in mysql usage.

“Bbpress support may be able to explain what the query is trying to do and how to optimize it or change some settings to make those requests less heavy for mysql.”

That is what has brought me here.

Does anyone know what this query does, if it could be involved with my problem and what corrective action should be taken? I would greatly appreciate any advice you can provide.

(I am the site owner and am not highly technical, but I have access to additional assistance as needed.)

[Robin W]

add this additional plugin

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Subscription emails

Tick item 4 to enable, and change the topic/reply emails as required.

Hi
I run different forums in my website. Each forum is related to a specific course I provide.

As the one who answers all questions sent by each forum, I have the issue that when I receive an inquiry, many times I do not know to which forum the question belongs. Today, to find out, I have to go to my wordpress backend, go to bbpress, and look in the topic section to which forum it belongs.

So ideally, it would be great if in the subject notification email, I can see to which forum is related.

So if today I receive a subject notification email like the following:

Clarification about XXXX

I would like to receive

[Forum XXXX] Clarification about XXXX

Thanks

This is one of the new FSE themes, so you need a fix to work with bbpress.
install

bbp style pack

once activated, navigate to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack, and you should see the first tab called ‘Theme Support’ – if you don’t see this, come back.

In that tab, select

Enable Theme Support

and save

The forums should then display

[Robin W]

locked the forum down to be under Membership Requests only.

is this a plugin/ a theme or what?

bbpress just uses WordPress registration, so anything that does this for WordPress will work.

you could hook to this to send

user_register

but without knowing how they are registering, difficult to help further.

Come back with further details

Hi folks,

I am currently working with a client who has a bbPress forum on their WordPress install. They have locked the forum down to be under Membership Requests only. This works great, however we are wondering if there is any way we can send the “new user” notification email that admins usually get to specific users/moderators/roles of the forum at all?

Kind Regards
Sam

ok you doing the equivalent of sending me an image of your car engine and expecting me to tell you what the noise it is making is caused by. 🙂 🙂

I would suspect it is theme related, and menus and scroll are theme related.

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

Hi all,

I’m having white pages issue while I setup a very simple forum on that testing sub-domain:
https://greensquare.c-serp.fr/
https://greensquare.c-serp.fr/forums/
https://greensquare.c-serp.fr/forums/forum/gestion-de-la-copro/

My current configuration
– WordPress: 6.5.2 – multi-site
– PHP/MySQL: 7.4.30 / 5.5.5
– Theme: TwentyTwentyFour Child
– Enabled extensions: bbPress (2.6.9), WordPress Importer (0.8.2)
– Enabled network extensions: Comet Cache (170220), Error Log Monitor (1.7.7), Fixed Widget (6.2.3), Forum_wordpress_fr (4.2), Solid Security Basic (9.3.2), WP-Sweep (1.1.8), WP Dashboard Notes (1.0.11)

I’ve read several topics including that one (https://wordpress.org/support/topic/blank-topic-pages-on-bbpress-while-using-twenty-twenty-two-theme/) I’ve put the code in my functions.php child, but it didn’t get any better. (I removed it)

But, I’m not too good at geek things, so I’ll appreciate any advices, clues if you read that topic, so I can enjoy testing bbPress extension.

Cheers.

=> Hello, we have identified it’s bbpress bug, So when user click on add new replay and forget to add post title, then it is not saving in database, and giving error.

=> While normally in WordPress, when we create new post and page, if we forget to add post title, then it automatically add title into that post.

Replay Add New: https://prnt.sc/DKkwONX0HsQN

Normal post (When title is not added): https://prnt.sc/_oEP2WsaezuL

I am just a moderator here, and not a bbpress author.

The authors tend to release updates every few years, rather than more frequently.

My personal view is that you should consider bbpress to be a ‘mature’ product, ie any releases will be to fix issues rather than add functionality.

bbpress is written really well, and has loads of hooks. In essence it is a WordPress product, written by the founder of Wordress, and taken into a plugin by sponsorship from WordPress. There are no show stopper bugs in it, it may throw a few deprecation notices (and these are very few at the moment), but WordPress recommends that you should not show error messages in live sites.

I currently have my test site running WordPress 6.4.x and php 8.2 with no issues.

The only major issue with bbpress at the moment is that it does not work well with FSE themes.

However my bbp style pack plugin has fixes for this

bbp style pack

as well as block versions of the widgets and a ton of styling and functionality add-ons.

All plugins are subject to the authors commitment, and bbpress is no different.

The main WordPress support forums use bbpress, and it would be mega work to move those over to some other product.

I am guessing that you are being told by Wordfence, which is telling you based on the fact that the plugin has not been updated, rather than any actual security risk.

But with open software you make your choices….

now added to version 5.9.2

Hello, we are facing issue of replay not working on admin side, while adding new replay is working correctly, we have deactivated all plugins and switch to WordPress default theme still there is problem.

Error:

Thanks in advance

Hello there,

I am using WordPress version 6.5 and bbPress version 2.6.9. This problem has been persisting for us for a while and isn’t an issue with the latest version of WP.

The pagination on our forums is not working. Clicking page 2 on the home page of the forum takes you to the page 2 URL but displays the results from page 1. The same thing happens if you view a topic – it shows only the most recent replies, even when going to page 2, 3, and so on.

Our forums are at https://pharmapreneuracademy.com/groups/the-academy-forum/forum/ but are hidden. Please let us know how we can provide credentials.

What I have tried:

– Checked error logs both in the site back-end and in the console and did not see anything relevant.
– Flushed & disabled the cache
– I disabled all plug-ins and changed the theme to default. This did not fix the issue. This means it isn’t a plug-in/theme conflict.
– Added custom post types to the cache exception rules
– Flushed the permalinks
– Deleted the .htaccess file manually and allowed it to regenerate.
– “Resetting forum slugs to default” in BBpress Forum Tools.

Can you please advise on what the issue might be?

Thanks,
Sky
