Suspect you are now using php 7.1
so 3 fixes
1. downgrade to a lesser version of php
2. upgrade to bbpress 2.6beta-2
3. in bbpress 2.5.12 change line 1851 from
$meta_query = $posts_query->get( ‘meta_query’ );
to
$meta_query = $posts_query->get( ‘meta_query’, array() );
Since the next upgrade will fix that anyway, no issue in changing the bbpress file
best I can offer I’m afraid
The site looked fine until we updated to WP 4.8. Topics became cramped under forum and received an error message when trying to create a topic or reply to a topic at front end. Same error when trying to access forums at back end. Topics at back end show no topics.
Deleted the plugin, reinstalled and started fresh with a new theme. Still see the same old content and get the same error. This is the error message:
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: [] operator not supported for strings in /home/rsgtoday/public_html/forum/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/forums/functions.php:1800 Stack trace: #0 /home/rsgtoday/public_html/forum/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(298): bbp_pre_get_posts_normalize_forum_visibility(Object(WP_Query)) #1 /home/rsgtoday/public_html/forum/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php(323): WP_Hook->apply_filters(”, Array) #2 /home/rsgtoday/public_html/forum/wp-includes/plugin.php(515): WP_Hook->do_action(Array) #3 /home/rsgtoday/public_html/forum/wp-includes/class-wp-query.php(1683): do_action_ref_array(‘pre_get_posts’, Array) #4 /home/rsgtoday/public_html/forum/wp-includes/class-wp-query.php(3248): WP_Query->get_posts() #5 /home/rsgtoday/public_html/forum/wp-includes/class-wp.php(617): WP_Query->query(Array) #6 /home/rsgtoday/public_html/forum/wp-includes/class-wp.php(735): WP->query_posts() #7 /home/rsgtoday/public_html/forum/wp-includes/functions.php(955): WP->main(Array) #8 /home/rsgtoday/public_html/forum/wp-admin/includes/ in /home/rsgtoday/public_html/forum/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/forums/functions.php on line 1800
At this point, we would like to get rid of the content that is on the site now and rebuild the forum. The forum site is to be part of a multi-site network of three WordPress sites, so it is critical to get it working. Have read your documentation and will need the right sidebar on the forum.
Hello – We are using TinyMCE for our forum text editor. Can we somehow disable the standard text editor tab from displaying as an option within bbPress?
Thanks in advance!
bbpress uses the worpress login, so that should all work, Just make sure you set the default role to participant in the settings>forums
and to clarify from the WSL documentation
WSL will take the user in a short journey to the selected social network to ask for his permission to access his profile. If he does, and if everything goes as expected, WSL will create a new account for the user if he doesn’t have one already, authenticate him within WordPress, then redirect him back to where he come from.
so it should work.
The user should be allocated the participant role on first login
Just yelling back at me like I am some dumbass that you don’t want something doesn’t get us any further forward.
Now if this isn’t working and you have checked my original suggestion then do please come back with a polite response and I will be delighted to help further.
I have a site which is using the newspaper theme
So after installing the bbpress plugin and creating a forum and posting a random topic in it
The topic can be accessed normally but the forum itself and the forums index and the “all forums” tab through the admin dashboard shows a HTTP ERROR 500
And This page isn’t working when using Chrome.
I’ve tried to disable every plugins but the bbpress one, And it hadn’t made any difference
Any suggestion would be helpful.
Anyone knows if the tool import forums of bbpress plugin can import images?
Hi there,
Is it possible to have all “Topics” (so NOT the “Reaction Posts”) made by “Participants” approved (by a bbPress “Moderater”) before they are published?.
I read some post about this and see this plugin: /wordpress.org/plugins/bbpressmoderation/ –> BUT this is 4 years old! I would normaly NEVER use this old versions on a large commercial website. Plus it seems that this plugin let me also approve the reaction posts and this is not workable for us.
I am running WordPress 3.7.5 with bbPress 2.6-rc-3 on PHP 7.1.x With > 200 Forums
Thx in advance for helping me out.
p.s. is this maybe a nice feature for a nex bbPress version say 2.6-rc-4 😉
best regards,
Berrie Pelser – Ber|Art
I know this is an old topic but the plugin you are refering to is 4 years old, is this still working with the newest bbPress version? And is there a posibilety to ONLY have the Topics approved?

I have rolled out my blog realoutdooradventure.com. Wow BBPress was so easy to setup and use. No for the hard part. I want people to log via WordPress Social Login and I have set it up for Facebook, Google + and Twitter. Easy Right? How do I get it to finally integrate with BBPress? Because right now nobody can start a Post besides me and that’s no good right?
Any Advice?
Hello,
I used bbPress 2.5.12 and BuddyPress 2.8.2
When someone make a post on bbPress, we can see it on the activity of BuddyPress.
The problem is when a user edit the post, we can see one more activity.
If the user edit 5 times, there is 5 activities.
Is there a solution to edit the activity when the post is edited? or delete the old one after edition?
It could be a theme or plugin issue
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

2) Shows the total topics, replies and total count under the avatar on each topic/reply view in bbpress
Because this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-topic-count/ not tested up to : WordPress 4.8
is tested to 4.8 – it says so and I wrote it !!
can’t help with 1 – It should work, try it on your test site
1) Button to allow users to report a message to the moderator
because this plugin https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-report-content/ tested up to : WordPress 4.0.18 and now the wordpress version is 4.8…
2) Shows the total topics, replies and total count under the avatar on each topic/reply view in bbpress
Because this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-topic-count/ not tested up to : WordPress 4.8
enable BBpress again, BUT disable that anyone can post,
let only registered to users post,. and see if it makes any difference,
I am helping out at a blog called … we recently installed bbpress soon later lots of spam came out way we then disabled bbpress and it vanished I have tried various spam addons but most dont work well black and white lists seem to be working better for now i had to disable bbpress does anyone have any methods of blocking spam forums posts thanks.
windwardoaksontherez.website/ I have created a homeowner’s website with both blog posts and forums. When I activate the bbPress, the blog feed grays out on the home screen and the news link on the menu opens a blank page. Users who login can see the blogs but the public view is missing. I don’t have anything setup restricting the post pages or the forums.
If I deactivate the plugin, then both the logged in members and the public can see the blog posts, but then, of course, I don’t have forums. Any idea what is causing this to happen?
WordPress 4.8, bbPress 2.5.12,
Hello,
I have BuddyPress and bbPress on my site.
My site has been moved to a new hosting company. Since the move when you click on Forums in the dashboard or in the front end menu you get a white screen. When you click on topics you see them all listed back end and can “view” them on the front end too.
All my widgets don’t show either.
I have deactivated all plugins and re-activated them one by one and put the site onto a default WP theme with no luck of seeing the forums (or widgets).
When I deactivate bbpress the site only shows the header on the front end.
I have changed the permalinks to the default and back again also.
One thing I should mention is that when I am logged in, I can see all the widgets, so the site looks normal on the front end. But I still cannot see the forums.
Networking in the dog industry
Any ideas would be very much appreciated -thank you. I’ll pop this onto the BuddyPress support also.
I see you found the correct forum for the bbp-messages plugin 🙂
So, yeah, not a bbPress issue 🙂

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!
Thank you for this bbPress Messages plugin.
Upon activation of the plugin and trying to send a private message, an error message “Fatal error: Using $this when not in object context in /home/web/japarang/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbp-messages/Inc/Lib/wp-messages/src/wp-messages.php on line 1952
Will like to seek your help in resolving this error. Thanks
My Forum: http://www.japarang.com/forums/
Wordpress Version: 4.8
Did this get resolved? I have a similar issue on my website. Once I activate bbPress, the blog pages close.
See: http://windwardoaksontherez.website/ halfway down the home page to the right of Events the blog feed if blank.
https://windwardoaksontherez.website/uncategorized/community-news/ page is empty
If I deactivate bbPress, the blogs return. However, I then lose my forums. Any suggestions?
