Just wanted to find out if there has been any change to bbPress in recent months that can help me with this issue?
Thanks.
@ Robin: I am very grateful for your kind help and that you have taken so much time! Obviously bbpress now works differently with the reply-titles as until 2.5x. For me this is not really good, not very practical. But I also can not forever stuck at version 2.41. Tonight I will take a look at the simple-press forum.
@ Stephen Edgar: Thanks for your notice. It would be great if you knew a solution that bbpress the reply-titles handles again like up to version 2.41. Enjoy your morning coffee!
Can you create a ticket on Trac please and we can take a look.

For future consideration.
Please add two hooks in bbpress/includes/common/functions.php after lines 1105 and 1245 to filter the array of user ids.
Something like
$user_ids = apply_filters( ‘bbp_forum_subscription_mail_ids’, $user_ids );
and
$user_ids = apply_filters( ‘bbp_topic_subscription_mail_ids’, $user_ids );
Hey Robin, I tried disabling all plugins except for bbpress. it did not work.
ok, sounds like you have a conflict
try
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, switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.
@robin-w Hi, I’m back! 😛 (and I haven’t forgotten about my promise to donate – I’m still waiting for my invoice to be paid!)
I’ve been testing this plugin, and although the updates seem to have improved a few things, I’m still having issues when trying to list topics.
If I look at http://www.mysite.com/topics as an administrator/keymaster, I can see all topics fine.
If I look at http://www.mysite.com/topics as any other user then I just get a white page
This appears to be the same error as before, with the query timing out due to the large amount of topics it’s trying to check privileges for.
Is there a way to use the ‘Topics Per Page’ value from bbpress as the limit on the query? I understand this might screw up the pagination slightly, but I’d rather the page count was wrong than the topics listing being unavailable.
I was looking into adding this myself, but I don’t know where I can pull the current page information from in order to set the query offset…
Do you think this would be a viable option to reduce the amount of work the database/php is doing each time?
*edit* Pagination would be an issue if I did the above wouldn’t it… Hmmmm [scratches head].
Would a JOIN sql statement be an option in order to do the matching of groups-to-users-to-topics bit while grabbing the topics, rather than grabbing all topics and then checking each one individually?
Thanks a lot !! Has been really userfull !
I also had a problem with the login form. When I used the login form, it always redirected me on the main page of the forum but always in the main language.
Te solve this problem, just modify another line in bbpress/includes/common/template.php on line 1181 :
On line 1181, replace:
$redirect_to = ( is_ssl() ? 'https://' : 'http://' ) . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
with:
$redirect_to = qtrans_convertURL(( is_ssl() ? 'https://' : 'http://' ) . $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
@robin-w yeah i still need help
There are a couple of tweaks in the next version of bbPress but most likely you will need to tweak this within the theme you’re using.
bbPress includes the WordPress natively supported embed providers:
Flickr Videos & Images WordPress 2.9
Hulu Videos WordPress 2.9
Imgur Images WordPress 3.9
Instagram Images WordPress 3.5
Photobucket Images WordPress 2.9
SmugMug Photos WordPress 3.0
(SmugMug and Photobucket support is being removed for WordPress 4.0 is released, see #28379)
For any of the above you simple paste the URL on a new line by itself:
e.g. https://flic.kr/p/57FFQn

Any other images hosted elsewhere you simple link to them using the <img src=''> HTML
e.g. <img src="https://farm4.staticflickr.com/3130/2701069417_4d5234fc18_o.jpg" width="198" height="49" alt="bbpress">

This will be a conflict with one of your plugins, start disabling each plugin until you see the bbPress menus, once you see the menus you will know which plugin is causing the conflict.
I am new to bbPress. I am sure many people may have asked these questions but I really cannot find the appropriate thread. So any help will be greatly appreciated.
1. The login widget on the sidebar is not working. Once I put the credentials and hit ‘Log In’ button, all I am getting is a white screen! I really cannot see a way out. Can anyone help? Please.
2. Forum posting is supposed to allow html formatting as mentioned in the settings (Dashboard >> Settings >> Forums) but I don’t see any formatting options as I can currently see here in this support forum as I am typing. I just used the strong tag using the html buttons tab here. I will like to have the same option showing on my website. Why are this html options not showing at all on my website? Can anyone help me? I will really appreciate your help.

Hi again,
shortly before I can finally go online with my WP+bbpress, there is a problem with the shortcode in a widget: The tag cloud in sidebar widget is not displayed.
Here in the forum I found the following tip:
To allow shortcodes in sidebar widgets, write in an empty functions.php file the following code und put this file into your child-theme-folder:
<?php
add_filter('widget_text', 'do_shortcode');
?>
After saving the file, you can now add the shortcode [bbp-topic-tags] in sidebar widgets.
Unfortunately the tag cloud is not shown.
What did I do wrong?
Thank you very much for help says

Hi,
(Maybe it’s a normal bbpress behavior but) I wonder that any search page nor user profile page appear in breadcrumbs.
As an example :
1- I stand in the “Forum A” page. Breacrumbs show : Home / Forums / Forum A
2- I launch the search (using the search widget or not : it doesn’t change anything)
3- In the result page, breadcrumbs only show : Home /
I meat the same issue with profiles pages :
1- I am in any topic page of the Forum A. Breacrumbs show : Home / Forums / Forum A / Topic-name
2- I click on the name of the topic author.
3- In the profile page, breadcrumbs show : Home /
In both cases I can’t use breadcrumbs to go back to any forum page. Not so practical!
Is there anything I should do to keep complete “ways” in breadcrumbs?

Ok, suspect that since bbPress authors have change how this works, then that is how the authors want it to work.
That would be very, very sad. Before, it was much better.
But I’ll take a look when I get a moment !
Yes, of course, I thank you very much!!
why do you need a plugin ?

when you reply to this comment look at the toolbar there is an image upload by url (img) button.
if you want images to be uploaded to your server
add this function to your functions php (if you have a child theme already set)
add_filter( 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args', 'bavotasan_bbpress_upload_media' );
/**
* Allow upload media in bbPress
*
* This function is attached to the 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args' filter hook.
*/
function bavotasan_bbpress_upload_media( $args ) {
$args['media_buttons'] = true;
return $args;
}
but function only allows admins, moderators , and authors to upload images to your server.
you would then need to change some user role capabilities so that if you want subscribers to upload images to your server

I’m new to bbPress (haven’t started using it yet) but I’m realizing that to show inline photos in a post, I need to use a plugin.
Are there any live sites out there that have inline images in posts that I can look at to give me an idea of what is possible with bbPress and image plugins?
What is the most popular plugin for allowing upload and display of images?

I just noticed that spectators and even blocked users, can see the Forum Settings page on the WordPress Dashboard. This is an issue because they can then go and change any of the settings of the forum.
Has anyone else noticed this (or am I just crazy) and is there a solution to this?
bbPress: 2.5.4
Wordpress: 3.9.1
BuddyPress: 2.0.1
Well, I didn’t solve this but worked around in a completely absurd manner. The “paged” query var was causing the problems, so I made a new query var, thepage, and used that to re-do the query for user replies using the ‘bbp_get_user_replies_created’ filter. Then, instead of messing around with the slightly insane way bbPress writes the pagination links, I added in Waypoints (http://imakewebthings.com/jquery-waypoints/) and used the Infinite Scroll shortcut to load the next pages. It seems to work ok (fingers crossed, it’s just gone live, something could still go very wrong).
The links for the next pages are like this – I didn’t make them pretty because they’re not in the browser address bar.

I have tested with twentyten-theme and twentyfourteen and without any plugins. The behavior is unchanged, if I use bbpress 2.5x.
What would I like to happen?
I would like that bbpress is running like under version 2.41.
That is:
1. In the dashboard -> replies, the title is automatically written to the title box with the prefix “reply to: .. (topic title) ..”
2. This in turn causes that the permalinks include not only the ID, but – like it is defined in the WP settings – again the full title of the posts.
Why? As I had written:
1. Permalinks only with ID are not good for search engines.
2. The handling of the replies in the admin area (dashboard) is not good. If you have opened a reply, then you can no longer see at what post it belongs, because the title box is empty. How do you personally deal with that?
Do you have the ability to install bbpress version 2.41 in your test area? Then you can watch live, how version 2.41 works and what you see in the dashboard –> replies. (= title is there and permalink with title)
This is, what I want to have back!
Do you know a way to implement this again with version 2.54?

seems strange that they claim it is compatible, but can answer why it is not compatible !! 🙂
Ok lets try the following, to prove that it is solely a theme issue (sometimes they can be a combination)
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.
