Hello,

After some troubleshooting it appears the latest version of bbPress interfered with showing the subscribe button for individual topics. I confirmed it was there prior to the upgrade.

Please advise how to resolve the issue.

Thank you!

Fixed the issue I was having with this same error.

Whew… after lots of searching and turning plugins on and off, I found the conflict and it was actually just settings that were defaulted incorrectly the Ultimate Member plugin with it’s add-on Extension for BBPress (premium plugin from Ultimate Member extensions bundle).

The Ultimate Member BBPress extension has settings for every user role in the Ultimate Member > User Roles section, and in those settings it has permissions for BBPress that override BBPress settings. In those settings there are checkboxes for each permission, including posting replies, posting topics, etc. Customer roles, admin roles, and a bunch of other roles were for some reason defaulted to not allow these types of posts.

To fix Ultimate Member permission settings, go into each role and enable the features / permissions accordingly.

not with css I’m afraid.

you will need to know how to transfer files to/from your site using ftp. If so then

find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-anonymous.php

transfer this to your pc and edit

remove lines 32-35 ie

<p>
			<label for="bbp_anonymous_website"><?php esc_html_e( 'Website:', 'bbpress' ); ?></label><br />
			<input type="text" id="bbp_anonymous_website" value="<?php bbp_author_url(); ?>" size="40" maxlength="200" name="bbp_anonymous_website" />
		</p>

and save

create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

Then transfer the file you saved above and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/form-anonymous.php

bbPress will now use this template instead of the original

@johnjamesjacoby that sounds amazing! I’ve did some digging already, but I couldn’t find an easy fix to get it working again.

If you’ve some pointers to get the code from
Sven (https://wpup.co/bbpress-threaded-nested-replies-with-paging/) working with the latest version, I’ll gladly do some testing.

Hi,
I installed BBpress on my site and it goes well for two month.
Suddenly i faced 503 error in reply page of admin side
I repaired forum but nothing was solved , I reset the froum and it solved the problem
but i need my forum data and as soon as i import them with wordpress as XML , again the error comes back!
what should i do now ? do you have any idea?

Hi,

I’m creating a forum with bbPress in which I want to run only a forum/”room”, showing all the topics in the front page. I achieved that in settings, selecting that the forum root should show most recent topics.

On the front page, however, I wish any user could post new topics straight from a form. So, I opened content-archive-topics.php and add this line of code right after the topics’ loop:

<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'form', 'topic' ); ?>

It worked like a charm, except only for admins. Participants (the role) are shown a message saying they aren’t allowed to post topics. On the other hand, when a participant enter the (only) forum page, the form appears working below the topics.

Any idea about how to fix this?

Please look here:

I would like to find a replicating the code snippets like on my posts in BBPress and have not found a solution.

Hi, I have installed the bbPress plugin, as I need a forum for visitors feedback. I have realised when creating a topic as a new user that the fields to fill are not showing when typing except for the topic description itself. It seems it’s something to do with text being written in white? If one keeps writing and post the topic it shows when published.

I have looked into the plugin settings but cannot find anything to change this.

Any feedback would be greatly valued.

Importing an old installation of bbpress1 into bbpress last version plugin, i’m getting stuck at step 11 with this loop:

Is these important to run after upgrading bbpress to 2.6-2.62-2.63 or dont matter much?
Remove favorites from user-meta
Remove topic subscriptions from user-meta
Remove forum subscriptions from user-meta

[John James Jacoby]

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

[ionisz]

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:

[Scaffies]

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
Website: https://www.craneresorts.com/

Regards,
J

[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.
