Hello !
I updated bbpress to version 2.6.1 and noticed that several words were not translated anymore (I own a french website), especially in freshness :

I used to edit those translation with a plugin called “Loco Translate”.
So I went and checked if those words (ago, months, months, day, days, etc.) were still correctly translated in french version, and they are.

So, is there an issue with translation since 2.6.x release with the freshness labels ?
Can you help ?

Best regards

[Robin W]

hmm – that is interesting – this seems to refer to a plugin

bbPress Threaded Replies

which has not been supported for a number of years.

It is likely that 2.6.1 has revised a function which threaded replies uses, and therefor is no longer working.

Hello ?
This is a simple question for bbPress experts anyone ?
Thank you

Hi, I have two main topics and they have 4 and 3 subtopics respectively. For some reason, only the main topics on my forum page https://www.apis.de/forum/ are showing. I believe this changed with a recent update to either WordPress or BBpress. How do I display the sub-topics of each of the main 2 forum topics as well plz?

Hello, we’re using WordPress version Version 5.3, BuddyPress version 5.0.0, bbPress version 2.6.1 and our website is https://www.lightstalking.us. The theme we’re using is called Performag (Version: 1.409).

Two days ago we suddenly started to have this issue regarding posting images in forum threads – our forum participants can’t post images. They can upload them and hit the send button, but the images simply won’t show up in the thread.

The issue is not due to plugin incompatibility because it’s still there even when I disable all the plugins we have.

Let me know if there’s anything we can do to solve this.

Best,
Jasenka

Hello,

I have the following problem;

Users can not upload images or videos when starting a new topic. As a user, you can select an image you have already uploaded to go in the new topic, but not upload new ones. It seems to work okay for users to upload and select new images when they are replying to an existing topic, the problem seems to be when starting a new topic.

My website foilfeed.net

I have deactivated all plugins and this didn’t fix it.

Bbpress is 2.6.0

Please refrain from bumping this quick. Check the responses in this thread.

In my case not every post was going to moderation. It was just the fact that the feature was working right as in it was now detecting link counts. That was not working before.

There is another discussion setting to send all comments for moderation but I don’t think BBPress checks that setting.

Also, BBPress does not inform admin by email when post goes to moderation. That would make sense to be a option. You are getting there. Cool!

Our bbForum has stopped working, giving the following error message. Could this be due to the recent plugin update?

ArgumentCountError thrown
Too few arguments to function UCC_bbPress_Threaded_Replies::get_topic_pagination(), 1 passed in /home/cotswol1/public_html/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php on line 288 and exactly 2 expected

[John James Jacoby]

I’ve perhaps uncovered a backwards compatibility issue with third party plugins that were using the now deprecated blacklist function.

In addition, everyone having issues here should remember that bbPress inherits many of the WordPress Discussion (Comments) settings. Moderation words, number of links, allowed tags, and a few others. If topics and replies are getting caught in moderation, comments of the same content would be also.

That said, the default behavior is NOT to land every single post in Moderation. If that is what is happening, something is broken.

[John James Jacoby]

Caching plugins misbehaving could definitely contribute to problems in a lot of areas.

Private and Hidden forums also do work a little bit strangely, especially without BuddyPress Groups on top of them to manage them a bit better, and especially when you have a mix of public and private within the same branch of a forum tree.

Imagine, if you will:

Public 1
|--Private 1
|--|--Public 2
|--Public 3

Now, I login and create a Topic in the Private 1 forum.

How should that bubble up to the parent Public 1 category?

Then someone creates a topic in the Public 2 forum. How can a public forum even exist under a private forum?

bbPress won’t prevent you from doing these things, but it won’t really work very well when you do.

I think, to work best, we could never cache these values ever, because they’d always be based on what the currently logged in user can see, instead of being attached to the forums or the categories like they always have been.

But for now, for performance reasons, these Freshness values are working as intended, even though they aren’t a real great experience for Private and Hidden Forums underneath other Public ones.

[Chuckie]

Thanks. But I am not sure what you are suggesting I do?

When I started out setting up bbPress I understood I had to create a page to list the forums. So I created a page (support-forums) and inserted this shortcode:

[bbp-forum-index]

Are you telling me I don’t actually need this page on my website or need to use this shortcode? #confused

[John James Jacoby]

I don’t really understand why you need 2 separate pages for your forums.

If you create a page that matches the slug for your forum root, it will use that page instead, as well as the title.

Then, you can use bbPress shortcodes to fill in the content.

This is what we do here on bbPress.org, and it works pretty well.

Hi All,

Had the same issue as described above. The default phpbb.php import script didn’t convert anonymous users of topics and replies and the Pixenated script looped infinately with the conversion of users.

I’ve fixed the script and uploaded to PasteBin. Feel free to share widely.

How To:
1) Upgrade phpBB to v.3.2.5+
2) Install BBpress 2.6 RC7
3) Upload to /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/admin/converters/phpbb.php

Remember that real men don’t do backups. They cry a lot.

This says to use 30? Or is that out of date:

This is the full function:

add_filter( 'bbp_kses_allowed_tags', 'ntwb_bbpress_custom_kses_allowed_tags' );

function ntwb_bbpress_custom_kses_allowed_tags() {
	return array(

		'video'      => array(

			'height'   => true,
			'source'     => array(
				'src'    => true,
				'type'	 => true
			)
		)
	);
} 

if I introduce source into the top level then the source inside the video tag gets stripped completely from the output. So I can’t do that. I think bbPress needs tweaking to stop escaping the video tag content. Some how. For not admin.

[Chuckie]

I am using the TinyMCE Insert Video plugin. I paste the URL into that. It works fine for admin. It is only non-admin.

My functions.php has some tags added to the array defined in here:

add_filter( 'bbp_kses_allowed_tags', 'ntwb_bbpress_custom_kses_allowed_tags' );

Snippet:

		'video'      => array(
			'controls' => true,
			'width'    => true,
			'height'   => true,
			'source'     => array(
				'src'    => true,
				'type'	 => true
			)
		)

There must be a way for me to allow those without escaping for non-admin.

The path begins https.

@robin-w

I am struggling with your other request. Something isn’t right. I have moderation still switched ON …

If I try to insert a video (only one video) as a non-admin and hit enter the video won’t play. When I edit the post the content looks like this:

<video controls="controls" width="300" height="150">
**source src="pathtovideo/pts-test-video.mp4" type="video/mp4" /**</video>

bbPress has escaped the < and > symbols.

If I log back in as admin and perform the same task. I get a functional video link:

<video controls="controls" width="300" height="150">
<source src="pathtovideo/pts-test-video.mp4" type="video/mp4" /></video>

I know it is a side issue but I don’t understand how to fix that and until I do I can’t complete the testing you wanted.

[Robin W]

go to

bbPress

then on right hand side select ‘advanced view’

and at the bottom you’ll find previous versions – select 2.5.14

[selym]

Every link I’ve found to this question in the title has led to a dead end so far. I need to roll back to a prior version of bbPress. (2.5.14) Can anyone point me in the right direction as to where I can find downloads for this?

[thierrytregaro]

Thanks for the time/code but closed bbpress this morning and moved to discourse. Lost the perfect integration with wordpress but this is a way more convenient way for me to handle a community maybe too big for bbpress

Hello,

As I was a newby in BuddyPrees & bbPress too I checked the Internet and found this website with a lot of infos. http://buddyuser.com

After installing bbPress, I noticed my footer on the Forum pages is skewed. All the Social Link menu is stretched on just the forum pages. None of my other pages have a problem.
