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

I upgraded to version 2.6.3, and have received a warning that a page in BBPress is not in sync with the “official” release. The page in question is wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/engagements.php. When I compare old and new versions of the page, the old actually looks better than the new one does! How do I re-install to make sure that I have the “official” release?

[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!!

Custom Field doesn’t work with bbpress 2.6 and above
I use custom fields for bbpress topics.
I tried to turn off all plugins and change the theme to default but always receive next javascript error in the console:

thanks for your response!

What is there to check in the theme, if the widget display changed with the 2.6.x releases (we are on 2.6.3)?

Specifically, it is the “(bbpress) Recent Topics” and “(bbpress) Recent Replies” widgets, in which it occurs – only. All other widgets in use display avatar and DisplayName correctly with spacing.

Hope this helps.

[John James Jacoby]

With or without the adminbar, this should still work.

This was reported earlier and fixed in bbPress 2.6.3.

[John James Jacoby]

Some fixes did go into hierarchical replies in the latest versions, just not regarding pagination. I’m hoping to look more into this for bbPress 2.7.

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

Regards,

[Robin W]

ok, I can only suggest it could be a theme or plugin issue

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, 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.

Then come back

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):

[jrv123]

replace bbpress 2.6.3 with bbpress 2.5.14.

Create a topic, then create a series of semi-random reply-to-reply, and look at the hierarchy that is displayed.

Change to bbpress 2.6.3, and try the same thing. Create a topic, then create a random series of reply-to-reply, and some of the reply-to-reply end up being interpreted as reply-to-topic.

the other thing i’ve noticed, bbp_insert_reply() is no longer being called.
In bbpress/includes/replies/functions.php, put exit(-1); at the topic the bbp_insert_reply() function, and you will notice that the function is NEVER called.

[Robin W]

bbPress – Moderation Tools

still works as far as I know.

Hello,

My client wants to aprove ALL replies before they are posted. Is this possible with bbpress?
I saw a couple of plugins but they are abandoned

[Chuckie]

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

[randrcomputers]

I am also seeing this problem. I added @ajtruckle code to my childs function.php and will see if it helps. frustrating as bbpress dont email admin about pending posts/topics or replies so hard to keep track. hope the code works until they get it sorted out.

[jrv123]

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.

Hello,

Is there any function or something for the nickname field to take data from username field and possible to save the profile? I’ve tried everything but I can’t do it.
I don’t want users to be able to change their name at all times, but only administrators will be able to change it through the dashboard.

I am editing bbpress form-user-edit.php in my child-theme. But still got only ERROR: Please enter a nickname.

		<div>
			<label for="first_name"><?php esc_html_e( 'First Name', 'bbpress' ) ?></label>
			<input type="text" name="first_name" id="first_name" value="<?php bbp_displayed_user_field( 'first_name', 'edit' ); ?>" class="regular-text" />
		</div>

		<div>
			<label for="last_name"><?php esc_html_e( 'Last Name', 'bbpress' ) ?></label>
			<input type="text" name="last_name" id="last_name" value="<?php bbp_displayed_user_field( 'last_name', 'edit' ); ?>" class="regular-text" />
		</div>

		<div>
			<input type="hidden" name="nickname" id="nickname" value="<?php echo esc_attr( $profileuser->user_login ); ?>" disabled="disabled" class="regular-text" />

Thank you.

Kinda new to BBPress

Looking to set up my forum almost exactly like this forum where a member of my site can start a formum – read and respond to all other forums but not have the ability to edit others forums……

now Ive installed BBpress created 2 topic but in my user created account i cannot see the topics – just says that I havent subscribed to any topics but the topics Dont show

also I have noticed that if you are not logged in you cannot view the forum links anywhere on my site …. only when logged in it it appearing.

[tauschring]

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

bbpress just uses your theme’s font, so theme related.

you can amend the css
