Thanks for reporting this here. I’ll look into it.

This probably will not be fixed in bbPress 2.6.1, but will be a priority afterwards.

[John James Jacoby]

Thanks everyone for the details here.

For those who had a bbpress.css file, can you try renaming it to bbpress.min.css and see if it gets included now? I have a theory on what’s going on, and your feedback will help me narrow it down.

[John James Jacoby]

Different themes use different styling for different reasons.

If I recall correctly, Twenty Seventeen does not use the text-decoration attribute, but rather uses some kind of text-shadow or bottom-border. It’s a weird anomaly with how that theme decided to do things.

It’s nearly impossible for bbPress to work perfectly with all themes, but we do try to keep the default styling working well with the themes that come bundled with WordPress.

This should be solvable with a bit of custom CSS. I’ll create a Trac ticket and see if we can bring this back for you with this theme specifically.

This will be fixed in bbPress 2.6.1.

After updated to bbPress plugin update 2.6.0, I am experiencing an error on my forum home login page where the table html is showing up on the page, instead of the actual text and link. See the link here:
image of error

Note that to get the forum formatting I wanted, I am also using several related plugins including:
bbPress Notify (No-Spam) version 2.5.6
bbp style pack version 4.3.2
bbPress WP Tweaks version 1.4.3

It is possible that the update is interfering with one of the other plugins, or vice versa. Any suggestions on how I can remedy this, or edit it to remove the table, would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hey there! Sorry that 2.6 is giving you trouble.

bbPress roles are somewhat tricky, but not too much has changed, so it shouldn’t be too hard for us to figure it out.

We’ll need to see the code that you used to make your custom Roles. If you can include it or link to it here, that will be really helpful.

[John James Jacoby]

This will be fixed today in 2.6.1. Sorry for the trouble!

Hi,

I’m currently using BuddyPress, bbPress, and Image and video gallery from Google Drive (all are latest updated). The plugin “Image and video gallery from Google Drive” provides a shortcodes is [sgdg path=”MyPath”]. I tried installing “bbPress – Do Shortcode” and it worked. However, the javascript file for loading is missing. Anyone can help me out please?

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…..

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.

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?
