standard fault finding advice applies viz

it could be a theme or plugin issue

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.

Plugins

If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

Health Check & Troubleshooting

Then come back

Not sure if this is Divi related or BB Press related. We have a BB press search function for our Forum which has been fine until recently. However, suddenly only page 1 displays correctly in the search results (first image). The rest of the pages look like the second photo – you have to scroll down to reach the menu which has been corrupted and then the search results are after that (and are displaying correctly. All plugins, themes and WordPress are the latest versions. Hope someone can help (please) …

Hello,
I have a problem with the activated search.
users who only have access to certain sub-forums have the bug that they enter random words in the search window and then get to posts from areas that are actually not visible to them.
how can I set the search so that only everyone receives search entries from their authorization? Thanks,
regards Markus

Just checking if the author of this plugin got my support forum request on Dev4Press?

[mand01]

Hi !I would like to know how to translate “freshness”. I have however translated all my .pot files, but I cannot translate this term on the forum.
Or do I have to go to a php file ?

Thank you a lot for your help.

bbpress version : 2.6.9

I have to find a solution for multiple tiers (hierarchy) of forum members. Specifically: if a forum member has more than 50 replies, I need to assign him/her an “expert” tag.

[rcotwunite]

Hello all, I’m using a plugin called bbPress Topics for posts. Each of my wordpress posts has a forum. I want users to be forced to choose “Buy” or “sell” from a dropdown menu when they reply. I’d like their reply to be tagged so I can, for instance, filter only “buy” or “sell” tagged replies on the page.

How can I do this? Thanks!

[Robin W]

that appears to be bbpress version 2.5.12 which is very old and out of support

[ithemelandco]

Hello. I installed bbpress on one of the clients’ websites. But unfortunately, after installation and activation, it gives an error and does not run properly.

See the attached file and help.
Thankful

bbpress just uses WordPress login, so any ‘member’ plugin will work for bbpress

[razezendegi]

hello,
my site has forum with bbpress how can connect it to iranian payment gateway (like https://sepordeh.com) , is it possible?

Hi Robin!

Thank you very much for the reply, really appreciate it. :- )

Around two years ago, I migrated from phpBB to bbPress, and it works great, just get this error via email (via Jetpack) 1-2 times per day around the same time each day. There shouldn’t be any kind of conversion going on anymore. Once migrated, you don’t need it anymore, right? Is there any way to disable it from running?

[neon67]

It’s been 3 years and 2 months – and everything works great.

Such a short entry in functions frees up a lot of free time for administrator. You can better plan the appearance of content in your forum, smooth out the peaks and days of silence, leave the scheduled right answers or warnings in the topics.
I recommend the authors of bbpress to include these lines in the standard delivery))

Thanks so much to Robin for your generosity and kindness!

Hi all,

I’m currently working on trying to display the currently signed in users subscriptions to both forums and topics within a Gutenberg block, but when accessing the user-subscriptions.php template, it shows that I’m not currently subscribed to any topics or forums, even though I can see I’m subscribed to them on the true subscriptions page at /forums/subscriptions. Is there any way to output this same content into a custom block?

Hi

I am now using the [BBP-STATS] shortcode and am trying to adjust the below code so that instead of ‘Forum Members’ being position higher than the $stats[‘user_count’] value presented, I am looking for code adjustment that will place $stats[‘user_count’] to the Right and inline with ‘Forum Members’

Currently;
Forum Members
xxxx

Looking to achieve;
Forum Members xxxx

Code currently is …
—-
<dt><?php esc_html_e( ‘路 Forum Members’, ‘bbpress’); ?></dt>
<dd>
<?php echo esc_html( $stats[‘user_count’] ); ?>
</dd>
—-

Any guidance most welcomed

Hi all,

Rather than wake up an old thread I thought I’d start a new one. The issue was reported here:

Links in posts lead to them being hidden (and how to deal with them)

And we have a similar problem. It seems a post with a single link is being hidden and no notification is being sent in spite of having the number of links set to ‘2’ before posts are hidden and us actively checking for the relevant notifications.

I was wondering if anyone else was experiencing this issue? I’m not that familiar with bbPress so if there’s something obvious I’m missing then I would be grateful if someone was able to point me in the right direction.

Wordpress 5.9.3
bbPress: 10.2.0

Many thanks in advance!

[Robin W]

sorry, no, presume you have woocommerce installed, but no idea why it is conflicting.

I presume you carried out

Plugins

If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

[Robin W]

something (not bbpress) is using a filter to call this function.

so you’d be looking for a hook that looks kinda like this

add_filter( ‘bp_notifications_get_notifications_for_user’, ‘xxxxxxxx’, 10, 5 );

or some code directly calling ‘bp_notifications_get_notifications_for_user’

Both of those should pass 8 arguments, but are only passing 5 – hence the issue.

it is not bbp-private-groups

if you really want to track it down, then use FTP to transfer the wp-content directory of your site to your PC.

then download and install notepad++ and use the search/find in files option to find bp_notifications_get_notifications_for_user in wp-content

that should get you to options where it is called

Hi, the error codes were found in my files in the back end/ftp. The error email is only sent to me while bbpress is activated. It has been hard to find out what is causing this. I tried deactivating youzify as well as buddypress. So far no more error emails have been received but I’m at a loss as to where it’s coming from exactly and how to correct it. My site needs these 3 plugins to function as well as the bbpress private groups plugin I have. My only theory is that the privacy function is conflicting with the notifications for some reason but like I said, it’s hard to pinpoint. My host is unsure and said to try asking bbpress. Maybe someone has a similar issue? I’ll keep researching and if I find an answer, I’ll post it here.

Hi there,
I think I am having a caching issue as when my users go to reply to a bbpress forum topic, it takes 2-3 times to submit their reply. (I am also having an issue sending buddypress private messages, when you click send nothing happens). I use W3Total Cache and Memberpress and I know I need to say “never cache” certain pages for Memberpress, so are their certain slugs I need to add to that list so the replies go through?
Thank you!

[markusmit]

Hello, we have been using the bbpress forum for some time.

since he didn’t show new posts, we installed bbpress unread pencil.
Unfortunately, the “unread button” doesn’t work and I would have to click through all 18,000 posts.

then we installed bbp style pack. the functions are great. only if i leave this plugin active my forum works very very slowly. only when I disable it does it run smoothly. is there another plugin that doesn’t show my old posts as unread?
Thank you,
regards Markus

[Robin W]

If you have deactivated bbpress, then the error cannot show as this is a bbpress function, where are you seeing these errors – if in a log, then are you sure the log is being cleared before each test

Hi, I couldn’t find Widget in Appearance in my WordPress 5.9. This version of WordPress has apparently shifted to block based editor which eliminated Widget in Appearance. May I know how am I going to design bbpress sidebar if we can’t use Widget? I also downloaded bbPress WP Tweaks, it seems that we really can’t do anything without Widget in Appearance.

Further info update:

Hi, after doing further testing, I’m still getting an error. I deactivated youzify. Then, I deactivated bbpress and buddypress but still getting an error. I am not too familiar with the files and coding but I opened the files where the errors are indicatd in the above error message I posted. If anyone is familiar and sees an error, I would really appreciate the heads up. Probably a long shot but thought I’d try. Thanks!
