I’m going to make the changes to functions.php to enable the visual editor and to enable buddypress @mention suggestions in bbPress visual editor (like my production site) and see if the error reproduces.

^ @atmojones, how did you enable @mentions within the visual/tinyMCE editor for bbPress?

Hi Robin,
Thanks for answering so quickly. That didn’t work but I want to try a similar approach. I disabled everything and I’m just using the bbpress login widget. My issue now is that I don’t know what I’m supposed to enter by lost password uri and register uri. Any ideas?

[Robin W]

ok, you’ll need to do some elimination

Plugins

Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

Hello,
I’m not sure which version of wordpress and bbpress I’m using but I just downloaded it so I would assume it’s the most recent version.
I’m trying to build a wordpress site which acts purely as a forum. I am using the twenty sixteen theme, I loaded bbpress and I got the opening setup but I can’t add an option to register or retrieve lost password. I tried adding it to the widget as well as using wordpress tweaks, none of it worked. In addition, for some reason, the login suddenly switched to text, [bbpress login], instead of showing the login box which used to be there. My site is forum.campexpo365.com. Thank you

[daltmc]

I’ve deleted bbpress and reinstalled and every problem persisted. It seemed none of the bbpress data was removed. Although in the add plugins page it tells me bbpress has not been tested with my version of WordPress.

I’m dealing with the same exact issue as you. I just posted about it here

[lupacexi]

Hi there,

I am currently using the below versions of WordPress and BBPress:
BBPress version 2.5.12
Image Upload for BBPress Plugin version 1.1.14
WP version 4.8

My website is myfertilityfocus.com (the forum is for members only).

When I originally installed the ‘Image Upload for BBPress’ plugin, there was an option for setting the dimensions of the image that was being uploaded to a post. Now this seems to have disappeared. If a member wants to post an image, there is no way for them to set the dimensions. Do you know what has happened here? Images are ending up way too big on members’ posts!

Hello,
I have a development site running BBpress perfectly fine. All forums and topics work great: http://www.switchitupdesigns.com/hatch/forums. As you can see, clicking on a forum opens up the page fine.

I then used All-In-On Migration plugin to copy the site from one domain to the next. Installation worked flawlessly and the site is up and running great on GoDaddy. However, now BBpress is not working correctly. When I click on the “Forums” tab in the admin dashboard I get a blank white page. Also, when clicking on a forum from the forum index on the frontend, I get a blank page:
http://hatchnutrition.com/forum/

We only have 4 plugins installed and WP, theme and plugins are all on the latest versions. Because the dev site is working perfectly fine, what could be causing this problem? Could it be a memory issue with the new hosting account on Godaddy?

Thank you for the assistance! 🙂

Hi,
I’m trying to move my entire WordPress site to another server. I export users, forums, replies and topics but when I try to import the topics I get the “WordPress Import assign authors” for every single user in my site even though I have already imported the users first.
What is the best way to go about exporting and importing BBpress and users?
Thank you,
Chris

I am sure you know, there are plugins that do that for the WordPress comments, so that even commenters who do not have a WordPress account on that site can check a box to receive email alerts of new comments.

wasn’t aware of that.

I don’t know of any plugin that does this for bbpress.

[sovvyg]

Hi,

I have no idea why but the forum/topic subscribe button is not appearing next to the breadcrumbs in bbpress forums as it should, i have enabled the functionality in the settings. This has never appeared but i’m probably missing something simple.

Is there a way to add this next to the forum title rather than in breadcrumbs? I’m not sure how to call it:

add_action( 'bbp_theme_after_forum_title', 'n8_after_forum_title' );
function n8_after_forum_title() {

WHAT DO I ADD HERE??

	}

WP version: 4.8
BBpress version: 2.5.13

Thanks!

They can’t comment without entering their name and email address anyway, so is there a plugin for bbPress that will add that name and email address to a mailing list and allow them to receive email alerts of new comments to that post?

Using WP 4.8.1 and bbpress 2.5.13

I just did a search in the forum, and it yielded 346 results. All the posts were displayed as i would expect at first, but as soon as i clicked on the second page, i got only this:

Search Results for ‘cassel’
Home of the Scrapbook Campus › Forums › Search › Search Results for ‘cassel’ Viewing 30 results – 31 through 60 (of 346 total) ← 1 2 3 … 12 → Author Search Results August 1, 2017 at 2:57 am #14264 In reply to: July Mystery Challenge AprilDawnParticipant (162.158.2.165) Here is my contribution to this… Continue Reading

So, basically no other result is actually readable. I am not sure if it is specific to bbpress or a setting i might have wrong. If i do a search on the blog or the rest of the site, I can get results displayed for many pages without any issue.

Here is my site: http://scrapbookcampus.com

Thanks.

I did the 2nd choice (upgrade to bbpress 2.6rc3) and it works just fine.
Thank you Robin

[Robin W]

so 3 fixes
1. downgrade to a lesser version of php
2. upgrade to bbpress 2.6rc3
3. in bbpress 2.5.13 in includes/forums/functions.php
change line 1851 from
$meta_query = $posts_query->get( ‘meta_query’ );

to
$meta_query = $posts_query->get( ‘meta_query’, array() );

and change line 1796 from
$post_stati = $posts_query->get( 'post_status' );

to

$post_stati = $posts_query->get( ‘post_status’ ); 
if (!is_array($post_stati)){
                                             $post_stati = array($post_stati);
}

WP 4.8
BBPress 2.5

Hello,
We use bbPress in place of the WP comments, and we allow both logged in and logged out users to reply. I know that people logged in can check the box to subscribe to new replies, but logged out users cannot. I would like to allow logged out users to subscribe as well. Can this be done?

Thank you.

Hello guys,

How can I make the 1st post of each topic (author post) to have a different background color? Exactly like we can found here in official bbpress support forum.

Thanks in advance 🙂

[Divvy]

Hello guys,

Is there any chance to have this plugin integrated in bbpress?

WP Editor Imgur Button

Would be a perfect addition!

The idea is to users upload images directly to imgur.com and post in the forum…

[darrennye]

After reading many forums, and trying many other themes, I found that all stock wordpress themes, had no issue with the right margin on bbpress content (and the submit button) from being cut off. Disabling all plugins also made no difference. So I went back to WooThemes and had another chat with a tech, and I explained all this to them. Nicole immediately knew what the problem was. I added the following to Canvas > Settings > Custom CSS:

/* ADDED FOR BBPRESS COMPATIBILITY */
fieldset { width: auto; }

Wallah!! That did it.

I asked her to please put this in the next WooThemes Canvas update, so others don’t have to spend days figuring this out.

[kariellen35]

That suggestion worked perfectly! Thanks so much!!

For anyone interested, you can edit any part of the wordpress email messages (/buddypress/bbpress) because they are all tied together) by going here to download this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/welcome-email-editor/

There are a couple more ways to customize the emails and the tutorial is here: http://www.wpbeginner.com/plugins/how-to-send-a-custom-welcome-email-to-new-users-in-wordpress/

Thanks for your help Robin! 🙂

I’ve got bbp style pack already. Some things don’t work and it might be the fault of my host because I had another issue that was caused by my host. When entering a forum, “Create new topic” appears automatically. I would like to remove the automatic “Create new topic” message and create a “create new topic” button. bbp style pack makes the button but won’t remove the automatic message. Can anyone suggest another plugin that will let me do this?

Also, in some of my forums I would like to rename the button from “Create new topic” to something else but only in some of the forums. I’ve been told this can be done with CSS. Can anyone give me the code for this? Thanks.

I got the same error with bbPres 2.5.13 when I switched from PHP 7.0 to 7.1 (and HTTP error 500 on the forum page).
Afaik this problem is fixed in bbPress 2.6. My advice: Switch back to PHP 7.0 until the update for bbPress has arrived.

[w-sky]

Yes, I got the same error when switching from PHP 7.0 to 7.1 – ifaik this problem is fixed in bbPress 2.6. My advice: Switch back to PHP 7.0 until the update for bbPress has arrived.
