it could be a theme or plugin issue

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

Health Check & Troubleshooting

Then come back

[Robin W]

you are using the divi theme

On profiles,I’d suggest you add

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>theme support and you’ll see some useful info on search and profiles

2. on splitting using the same plugin as above, go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>bbPress Bug Fixes

and select Fix ‘A variable Mismatch has been detected’ – this may fix that one.

Dear BBpress moderators,

I have recently started a forum on my site and chose bbpress as my forum plugin… Now Iam experiencing the following problem; when I login as a user, post a topic and then try to edit it as the user OR as an admin, I get a “no results found” blank page with a 404 error. Another matter that is inoptimal is that when you click a user’s profile, you get a mile long blank page with broken links on it, and when you scroll to the bottom you get a very glitched out user module with non-functioning tabs. Would you perhaps know how to fix this? I have already tried a ton of things, from editing the slug to logging in as different roles, nothing works. Bytheway, as an admin, ‘splitting’ a topic/ reply also doesn’t work and gives me the same error.

Thak you in advance

Sincerely, Dave.

Since bbPress sends emails in ‘bulk,’ every recipient gets the same message; there is no way around that. There was some discussion of changing how emails are sent, but that is a very complex issue right now.

The only way to resolve this is to override the bbPress code for sending emails and write a new one to do what you need. But, that needs to be custom-coded, and it would not be cheap to do.

[Robin W]

Because bbpress sends a single email with all the recipient email address in the BCC, this is not possible.

[Robin W]

I am not a bbpress author, so cannot do that – sorry

[prashpbt]

Hello Robin,

Shall check with 6.5.5 + bbp style pack. Thanks for the suggestion.

However , I would like to suggest you to integrate bbp style pack within bbpress itself. So that users wont have to take an extra step and install bbp style pack.

Kindly let me know if that’s possible.

Regards.

Hey n3wjack,

There aren’t many actively maintained like-button plugins for bbPress specifically. But, check out “Like for bbPress” – it might do the trick for simple upvoting!

[TKServer]

Yeah I just deployed the first version. Once it’s been tested and gotten some user feedback I’ll update if necessary, then I think I’ll make a free version for the bbPress community.

[Milan Petrovic]

Hello,

Both things are available in my GD bbPress Toolbox Pro plugin: plugins.dev4press.com/gd-bbpress-toolbox. You have additional notifications for admins, and every email sent by bbPress can be customized and you can change the text of the email.

For a long time links from twitter have previewed in bbPress topics and replies. Now that the name has changed to x.com, the previews don’t work. Is there a solution?

Ive recently installed bbpress to a wordpress website and behind the forum there is a white box, i have eddited bbpress.css and the box is still there, any ideas on how to remove it?

[arnoldmatt]

Running into conflicts with new versions can be a pain. Have you tried checking the bbPress forums for similar issues with the new version and BuddyPress? There might be a workaround.

[terrenuit]

Hello,
I would like to set up a page for my members who can publish their annoucements,
Can I creat this page in using BBPress ? and how I will do it ?
thank you very much !

[arnoldmatt]

I feel you on the 700 clients! Hopefully a bbPress update is coming soon to address compatibility. In the meantime, BP Classic might be a temporary solution for some.

[priyam1234]

In the new version, I am encountering a major issue where all AJAX functionality, as well as BuddyPress and other plugins, are not working properly.

I have checked every scenario, including using the default WordPress theme, and consistently face issues due to the new version of bbPress.

I kindly request you to resolve this issue as soon as possible, as my client has raised a refund request because of this problem.

@houd, thanks for your help.

I tried your code but the ‘span’ tag does not work as expected.
Strangely, I think the code itself is correct because ‘strong’ tag (bold text) does work when I added it in the code for testing purpose. Like this:

function wp_bbpress_allow_tags(){
    return array(
        'span'=> array(
            'class'     => true,
            'style'     => true,
        ),
        'strong'     => array(),
    );
}
add_filter('bbp_kses_allowed_tags', 'wp_bbpress_allow_tags');

Don’t know what go wrong.

[arnoldmatt]

Whew, that’s a lot to catch up on! Thanks for the info, Milan. Updating bbPress now.

[isagazapla]

Hello, the general forum stays on the left and with a reduced size. I would like to center the entire forum box on the page and make it wider. Is this possible? I have seen in several forums that it is.

For example, this one:
https://www.forodecampistas.com/viewforum.php?f=14

Mine looks like this, but aligned to the left and without the box, directly with the reduced width:
https://redteca.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/Foro-de-bbPress-Org.png

[houd]

You need to pick the allowed html tags that the users can use in your “functions.php”, like so:

function wp_bbpress_allow_tags(){
    return array(
        'span'=> array(
            'class'     => true,
            'style'     => true,
        ),
	// add other tags to allow here
    );
}
add_filter('bbp_kses_allowed_tags', 'wp_bbpress_allow_tags');

Keep in mind the tags you pick here are the only tags that will be allowed, so list all of them here.

Hello ,
I hope I can explain clearly what I want.
The topic title from the last post should be displayed

As can be seen in the following picture:

this picture is from my Woltlab forum. I specifically mean what I marked yellow!
I would like to have the same thing in the bbPress forum!
At the point I marked in the following picture.

So the name of the last topic is displayed above the date and time.
What should the code look like here?

I hope you can help me .

greetings from simsdreams

ok, you are doing stuff with combinations of old versions of software – I can only help with current.

Wordpress 6.x dramatically changed how WordPress works, and Twenty Twenty-Two is one of the new FSE themes.

So on WordPress 6.5.5 with Twenty Twenty-Two you will need the fix mentioned above. BBpress 2.6.11 is the current version of bbpress and should also be used.

Regards

Robin
