When I upgraded to bbPress 2.6.0, the links in my forums (e.g. topic names, links in posts) don’t show up underlined any more like they used to. So they’re not obviously links any more, which seems to be a usability issue. This is with WordPress 5.3.

I haven’t changed anything to do with the theme/appearance.

If you change 20 to 21, are you able to put 7 Japanese characters?
Just thinking of the multibyte characters, Japanese characters might be using 3 characters.

If it works, then for now you could change from 20 to 60, but that would mean that somebody can put 60 English characters of course…

To be honest it seems strange that this happens because of the switch of bbPress as the functions in 2.5 and 2.6 look the same. Are you sure it’s not because of a switch of WordPress to a higher version or another change?

I have no other ideas unfortunately…

Hi,
Maybe https://github.com/r-a-y/bbp-live-preview or https://github.com/jawittdesigns/bbpress-live-preview can help?

The new bbPress 2.6.0 update implemented yesterday breaks the forum index displayed with the [bbp-forum-index] shortcode.

1. The above shortcode used to display two levels, not one on bbpress 2.5.14 before the update.
2. The problem happens on three different sites, so it is not a plugin compatibility issue.
3. The problem was reported during the 2.6.0 development cycle but ignored:
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/subforums-not-showing-after-upgrade-from-2-6rc5-to-2-6rc7/

4. The forums that are displayed are and always have been propertly set to display two levels in the index:

Showing parent forums and subforums (categories) in forum root: How?

What I would recommend is modifying bbpress to implement a parameter after the [bbp-forum-index] shortcode such as “showlevels=1-2” or the like. That way users can control how many levels of the hierarchy are displayed in the index.

This is clearly a bug in 2.6.0 that needs to be fixed. When will it be fixed?

I see this same error when I try to publish or edit an event via The Events Calendar plugin.
I do not have issues publishing a post.

All of this started in the last couple of days. Has been working fine for months.

Curious if other Events Calendar users experience this.

Hope a fix is found soon. My site’s two purposes are the forum and calendar.

Thanks for all your hard work bbpress team!

[wurkagency]

Here’s a fix.
https://pastebin.com/0QQbxL4z

– Paste into ‘phpBB.php’ file and save in /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/admin/converters/phpBB.php

Remember to back up the old phpBB.php file first.

Godspeed…..

[raydelvec]

Same problem. I changed the CSS on my forum about a year ago, uploading the custom styles to Active Theme > css > bbpress.css

Then upon this latest update, they all reverted back.

It is fixed when you copy/paste the CSS code from that file into either main style.css or the Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS

I also use Autoptimize which wraps the bbpress.css code into one file.

I would like to know what’s causing the issue even though this is a workaround.

[creativersis]

Hi everyone. I was wondering if anyone else is having this problem and how did you solve it. We have bbpress on the website and we (used to) hold for moderation only topics, but all the replies could go through. Now, with the latest bbpress update replies are also held for moderation even though only topics are selected in settings. Any clues on how to fix this? Thank you

[DigitalGdn]

Workaround fix:

My theme’s bbPress custom styles were in bbpress/css/bbpress.css, I have copied the CSS contents into the main style.css and it is ok now.

[DigitalGdn]

Child CSS has disappeared for me as well. WP and bbPress auto-updated last night.

[hydrogriff]

@johnjamesjacoby, I can confirm this as well. The following things are broken for me.

• Child CSS won’t load.
• Subforums are not listed.

Love the moderation features though. But still I have to rollback to earlier version to have a functioning forum. What happened this time? Usually production releases come out well-tested by the bbPress team. This is a bit disappointing.

[Tom]

I looked at my local dev version of my website, and just updated the plugins without updating to wordpress 5.3 and it broke, so its actually the BBPress plugin itself updating that broke itself?

[Robin W]

I suspect update of bbpress to 2.6 may be the issue – have you updated bbpress as well ?

[Tom]

Wordpress automatically updated to 5.3 and broke the forums showing any threads/forums, the title still shows for the forum you are trying to show.

What on earth happened?
I’ve never had BBpress break on wordpress update in 7 years.

[agrolsy]

after upgrading from 2.6 rc 5 to 2.6 one of my plugins stopped working, with the fatal error Call to undefined function bbp_get_version(). I can’t figure out why, from what I can see that function still exists?

When I try the fix on https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/fix-for-phpbb3-to-bbpress-conversion-script/page/2/#post-205592, I get this error on an endless loop:

Hi everybody!

I’m having some problems importing from the latest phpBB into the latest bbPress.

I get the following error:

1. No passwords to clear
2. No users to import

Everything else appears to import as expected.

Since the latest update to 2.6.0 I’ve noticed that I am unable to click into the visual editor on replies to posts. Text tab works but the text area for the visual editor isn’t working at all. I can’t click into the space and type anything there. I’m using the following code to use the visual editor…

function bbp_enable_visual_editor( $args = array() ) {
$args['tinymce'] = true;
$args['teeny'] = false;
return $args;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args', 'bbp_enable_visual_editor' );

function bbp_tinymce_paste_plain_text( $plugins = array() ) {
$plugins[] = 'paste';
return $plugins;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_get_tiny_mce_plugins', 'bbp_tinymce_paste_plain_text' );

function bavotasan_bbpress_upload_media( $args ) {
$args['media_buttons'] = true;

return $args;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args', 'bavotasan_bbpress_upload_media' );

function add_theme_caps() {
$role = get_role( 'subscriber' );
$role->add_cap( 'upload_files' );
}

add_action( 'admin_init', 'add_theme_caps');


[Chuckie]

So I have this code for html tags not showing in topics for non-admin:

// Stop HTML Tags appearing in bbPress posts for non-admin users
add_filter( 'bbp_kses_allowed_tags', 'ntwb_bbpress_custom_kses_allowed_tags' );

function ntwb_bbpress_custom_kses_allowed_tags() {
	return array(

		// Links
		'a'          => array(
			'class'    => true,
			'href'     => true,

		),
		'tr'         => array(
			'align'    => true,
			'valign'   => true,
		)
	);
} 

I need to add some more tags to this list because my topics now support embedded videos. A user did a topic and it shows as:

<video controls=”controls” width=”300″ height=”150″>
<source src=”path; /></video>

What must I add to this tags array for this?

Thanks

Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1

[graverholt]

I am new to this. I have installed bbpress, but I have no idea about what to do next

I click on forum – add new – update

Click view forum and get this message:

404 Not Found
The requested resource was not found on this server.

[Robin W]

this will let you change text if you need it – not as good as having an ‘accepted translation’ but better than English

add_filter(  'gettext',  'rew_bbpress_translate', 20 , 3  );
add_filter(  'ngettext',  'rew_bbpress_translate' , 20 , 3 );

function brexit_translate( $translated, $text, $domain ) {
	if ($domain == 'bbpress') {
     $words = array(
                        
                        'Topic' => 'New-word',
                         'topic' => 'new-word',
         );
     $translated = str_replace(  array_keys($words),  $words,  $translated );
	}
     return $translated;
}

just change what you need and add to in the middle section

Put this in your child theme’s function file – or use

1) My site is in italian, and BBpress was obviously in italian. Now some words or sentences are in english and others are in italian. A sort of mash-up (latest replies widget, and other elements). ANything to do?

2) in mobile view, the username in the replies are partially covered from the previous reply.

[Danishsard]

Many pages with bbpress forums cannot use their national texts because there is no accepted translation. In the forum settings there should be assumptions where you can enter the forum entries yourself, for example: new topic, reply, newest, etc.

Also, there should be an option to pay out these beams with a description of how many votes are on a given topic (WHO’S WHOM FOR WHOM), and how many posts are in the topic and who last gave, it should also be to choose whether you want to see it.

My site in Polish but is displayed in large numbers in English language because there is no transaction that awaits for years to be approved https://infomiasto.eu/forum/tematy/rozmowy/ so you would write the right words yourself.
