The ALT + SHIFT + M hotkey does not work inside the editor of bbPress (even though I have the media plugin enabled and the functional button on the toolbar.
I raised this both on TinyMCE GitHUB:
https://github.com/tinymce/tinymce/issues/5223
And WordPress:
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/insert-media-hotkey/#post-12174886
TinyMCE support said:
TinyMCE doesn’t provide any shortcuts for the image, nor media plugin by default so this is likely an issue with wordpress or wordpress plugin you’re using. Since there is nothing we can do to fix the issue, I’m going to close this and suggest you log an issue with wordpress or wordpress plugin directly.
WordPress support said:
AFAIK that hot key is unique to the post edit screen only when using the classic editor. It’s not the editor itself that it’s tied to, but the edit screen for posts. If the block editor had a media button it would probably still work there. However, the bbPress forum post screen is not the same as a WP post edit screen. You would need some JavaScript code that listens for the specific keyboard event and when it occurs, launch the media modal.
Therefore, it sounds to me that bbPress needs some tweak to cater for the advertised hotkey for inserting images. Can this be considered please? All other hot keys are functional.
Thank you.
I just installed bbPress plugin and went through the setup but for some reason the registration redirects to the home page when I press view on the pages dashbored
Go to Settings | Discussions and increase the limit for allowed links. Or switch off moderation altogether by adding this to your child theme functions.php or add a snippet:
// ==============================================================
// Switch off bbPress Forum moderation
add_filter( 'bbp_bypass_check_for_moderation', '__return_true' );
// ==============================================================
This has already been raised and actively discussed here:
Freshness doesn’t seem to update as quickly any more?
Hi there… scary hour… I was told by a participant that 4 old forums that were all set to Private / Hidden were showing for them. “Click to Activate Forum visibility” is not checked and never has been.
I have got round this for now by putting the old forums in the ‘bin’ for now but this is not great and could cause trust issues re data.
incase relevant bbpress is also used with Woocommerce Memberships and bbp private groups and private groups bridge
It had been working for some years. no plugins are out of date etc.
Any ideas?
oh, and also can you say whether you are running a child theme that has any bbpress files in it?
for the moment I would change the file on production, knowing that it will be overwritten by any new versions of bbpress.
Hopefully JJJ will respond.
Hello,
I have the last version bbPress and Woocommerce suscriptions.
I have restricted my topics, but it is visibility for all users. Pages, Posts and Custom Post Type work fine. But topics don´t work. WHY??
how are you adding tinymce to bbpress ?
I tried 2.6.2 as well. As reported in the Child CSS post, I am facing this issue as well. Sub-forums are not displayed. I did purge the cache and tried saving forums too. The following things are not working.
- Subforums wont display
- Replies to topic wont display
- Custom CSS won’t load
@johnjamesjacoby, if it’s any help, I found these info after testing other versions of BBPress.
The subforums and replies were still working in 2.6-beta-1 and 2.6-beta-2.
Additional information:
- CSS stopped working since
2.6-beta-1.
- Replies to topics stopped working since
2.6-rc-1.
- Subforum display stopped working in
2.6-rc-7.
I’ve kicked this around for the last couple of hours.
The issue is not new with 2.6.
The core set up you have is that you have a private forum listed under a public category.
This gives a problem for what bbpress should store as last active time.
For logged in users this should be the ‘true’ last active for all sub forums, but for non-logged in users this should be the last active time of any PUBLIC sub forums, so in theory you should have two ‘last active’ times one for logged in and one for non-logged in. But bbpress does not have this.
To complicate matters, this is handled differently for topics and replies
The topic_walker function doesn’t check for private sub forums, so it creates the last active as a link to a private topic. So non logged in users see a ‘last active’ time, but if they click this, it goes to a 404 as the topic is not visible.
The reply_walker function DOES check for private forum status, and doesn’t update if the forum is private.
That is why you see Topics being added, but not replies.
I’ll think about how best to resolve, it may need a trac ticket
Sorry will try to provide more details…

Site installed plugin just fine but as soon as it finished and re activated bbpress plugin i could not access anything including backend. It would error with “site is experiencing technical difficulties” I could access backend in “recovery mode” but entire site was down. I have had 2.6rc7 installed on dev site for at least 6 months so not sure why it caused such a problem on live site? I did disable security and cache and i even put site in maintenance mode via theme option to keep members from posting while i did upgrade. Not sure if it was related to users still logged in or some plugin conflict but the dev site is running fine with same plugins only difference is no users logged in and no traffic
@johnjamesjacoby they are sorted in the exact opposite order in the Forms List Widget. They are listed correctly in the All Forums area https://community.careerpivot.com/all-forums/
@robin-w I have updated multiple of the forums and even tried changing the hierarchy to see if that might make a difference.
I would be happy to create a temporary account with appropriate permissions for someone to take a look. Just email me at marc@careerpivot.com
I just update to bbPress 2.6.2 which did not change anything.

By crash I mean site was down only way to recover was to manually copy bbpress 2.5 plugin backup via ftp
Hi guys,
I am searching for a function, that allows members to rate a topic / thread.
Is there something like this for bbpress already?!
Thanks,
Andreas
Hi @robin-w
1/ Yes, moderation is switched off. Since the “links” might potentially include any type of item that has a URL in it I did not see it practical to just increase the number of links. So moderation has been switched off for several days now:
// ==============================================================
// Switch off bbPress Forum moderation
add_filter( 'bbp_bypass_check_for_moderation', '__return_true' );
// ==============================================================
2/ It is never random. It is on the demand. Every reply to a topic I made yesterday needed me to run the tool to fix everything.
I am assuming that there is breakage in rolling freshness results back up the hierarchy.
@ajtruckle yes the post meta table – glad you found it.
interesting that it set the last active to the topic date in all three settings, as thugh no reply had been set.
ok we seem to have issues with moderation and freshness and this post also seems to be an issue.
Notification is showing latest update for unapproved replies
1. can you confirm you now have moderation turned off ?
and
2. having run the correction, can you replicate the issue, ie make it happen again or does it just randomly do so?
I still have a bug with the inserting of videos. If I am creating the topic / reply as an ADMIn then the code is correct:
<video controls="controls" width="300" height="150">
<source src="https://www.publictalksoftware.co.uk/videos/forum/pts-test-video.mp4" type="video/mp4" /></video>
When you hit SUBMIT the video can be played etc.
But when you are NON-ADMIN and hit SUBMIT the outer chevrons of the inner SOURCE tag get escaped. I don’t know where this issue lies:
– WordPress 5.3?
– TinyMCE Insert Media Plugin 4.9.6 ?
– bbPress 2.6.2?
Hello !
After a backup recovery of my website, all the emojis used in pages / post / forums were transformed into ????
So, I could correct my posts and pages because the “????” where only a few, but on my forums, they are too many, so I just want to replace the “????” with ” ” so that we don’t get bothered by this issue.
So : Do you know a way to search / replace text in all bbpress topics & replies ?
I have been trying with the plugin Word Replacer, but it doesn’t remove the “????” in database and need to always be running to make the replacement which I want to avoid (I just want to edit all of those ???? and save that change forever).
Do you know other plugin/alternatives I could use to remove those “????” (or make my emojis come back again, which would be awesome 😀 ) !
Thank you for your help !
The number of posts or users isn’t a problem. We have 11million users and millions of posts across multiple WordPress installations sharing the same user base. Like any web based application, the software will scale up to whatever hardware it’s running on, or choke on whatever it’s missing.
Posting links to images and videos is very easy, but if you want users to be able to upload them, you’ll need some way to elegantly allow for that. WordPress can handle it, but you’ll likely want to customize this experience.
Concurrent users and other metrics will all come down to server hardware, configuration, and ongoing maintenance. bbPress doesn’t really care how many users there are or how many page views happen.
bbPress does not come with any internal reporting. It adds some statistics to the WordPress Dashboard, and that’s it. Intentionally simple.
(There is a lot of data available in the database, and I’ve no doubt that really awesome reporting and charts and conclusions could be drawn from them, but there is nothing built-in to expose it.)
bbPress does include a very robust importer and forum-conversion tool, that we’ve successfully used for years to help hundreds of thousands of sites migrate millions of posts. Some folks have contributed their converters back up into bbPress, but most of them were made by community members who did the work to match all the data points together.
We’ve used the built-in converter here ourselves to go from bbPress1 to bbPress2; the same one that’s included with bbPress itself.
Switching forum platforms is risky. It’s a lot of work. It’s likely that some community members won’t like the new software. It never goes 100% without some kind of hitch. But… we’ve done an immense amount of work over 15 years to try and make bbPress the kind of software that makes that transition as easy and painless as it can possibly be.
I hope you’ll give it a try. We’ll be here if you have more questions. 🤝
That’s a thought…
I gave up on this plugin a few years ago — it didn’t seem to do anything for me. Still doesn’t, unfortunately. There’s no difference with or without Genesis Extend.
Deactivating all of my other plugins doesn’t seem to help, either.
I’ve also tried copying css/bbpress.css to other themes, including the Genesis Sample and WordPress 2020. Both of these themes require bbpress.min.css, at least on my development server.
I’m using WordPress 5.3, bbPress 2.6.2.
each capcha would be specific.
Do you want to pick one that works when logged in but not when logged out, and I’ll spend 15 mins seeing if it can easily be overcome.
what version of bbpress are you using?
I have tried to sort this out as well without any luck, I have tried other themes as well, it is the same on bbpress 2.5.14 which I am still using because subforums has not been sorted yet.
