How can I get the “participant” role to post iframes please? It is quite critical for my forum. If not that, I tried a plugin that achieves the same effect – however that is only working for Admins not for any other member – how do I enable “participants” to use the same short codes as admin or post iframes? Thanks.
Was this ever resolved. I have the same combination RPB and bbPress. The codes work for Keymaster but not foe Participant. Also, they don’t show pgn and fen as tags in the options on the editor – one has to type them in manually.
I’m running BBPress on wordpress 6.4.2 and PHP 8.3 and I’ve been getting the following deprecation warning:
PHP Deprecated: Creation of dynamic property BBP_Admin::$forums is deprecated in /home/peq42/www/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/admin/forums.php on line 793
if possible, I’d like the devs to look into it
Thanks.
Whilst I am not a bbpress author, adding fixes for themes which do not work with bbpress would require adding code for 200,000 bbpress users of whom only very small proportion use Hello Elementor, and then supporting this against any changes that Elementor do. There are other themes that also don’t work with bbpress and doing this for all these could add a mountain of work.
But yes, I’m glad to add the link to this thread to help others
Hello Elementor bbPress fix
I will also be adding support for this into my style pack plugin in the new year

Thanks.

I’m using Hello Theme, unfortunately hello theme is not showing forums on my page by using forums index shortcode.
When I switch to Astra theme or Nova themes, forum index displays properly.
(I might be changing themes temporarily so forums might display if im on other themes but https://forextradingcommunity.com/forums/ is my forums link on my site.)
I have contacted Hello Theme Support and they have responded as below:
“I will have this raised but we suggest you report this issue to the plugin authors so they can check and they can open an issue on our Github account, so our developers and the plugin author can communicate”
How can we resolve it?

Thank you @robin-w for your kind answer. I appreciate your time to look into this question and your diligence in answering people’s questions. It seemed this topic went in a different direction than I was expecting/asking, but perhaps I’m misunderstanding everyone’s answers? According to the security plugin WordFence documentation on their knowledge base it says the issue with bbPress is:
Plugin appears to be abandoned
This scan result means that a plugin has not been updated in 2 years or more. This can be a problem because it means that the plugin author has not made any changes for a long period of time. Sometimes that means it will not be fully compatible with newer WordPress versions, reported bugs may not be fixed, and new security issues might not be addressed.
The scan result also shows if this plugin has a known security issue that has not been fixed. If that is the case, it is recommended that you remove the plugin as soon as possible, and replace it with a different plugin if you need the same functionality.
There are two types of alerts for abandoned plugins, “Medium” and “Critical”. An abandoned plugin will generate a Medium alert. If the plugin also has unpatched security vulnerabilities, the scan result will be Critical. Plugins that are abandoned should be evaluated in terms of what risk they may pose. Unless you know that the code in the plugin is safe, you should start looking for a replacement. Plugins with unpatched vulnerabilities should always be removed.
When I read this guideline from WordFence and look at the bbPress website, as well as reading what WordPress says about it and what information about bbPRess displays inside my dashboard of the install, I’m not certain which instruction to follow. Should I consider it abandoned? Well, someone came here and answered my question named moderator and other people also visited this thread and commented who seemed to assume my question was a PHP compatibility question (i don’t know, is my question a PHP compatibility issue i’ve yet to discover?) so if people are actively reading a support thread that’s not “abandoned” in the sense people are here interacting still. But abandoned where coders who are behind the coding of bbPress watching developments and using the best security practices and applying them? I’m not certain and am not sure how to decide that info without posting again to ask. As a non-coding person I have no way of knowing without asking.
Is bbPress still in development, being monitored and updated by careful coders who look over it, or is the core code maintenance abandoned with some core enthusiasts who are still using it here interacting but not coders who know what’s what in the code? Unfortunately, I don’t read code. I am not a coder. So i have no way of knowing.
@lmstearn: Thanks for that info on the php code.
Here’s some info I found previously on this error (but you probably already knew this).
The ‘Are you sure you want to do this? ‘ error usually appears when nonce verification fails, and the most likely candidates for causing this error are plugins and themes not using this feature properly. Nonces are unique keys that add a security layer to protect WordPress URLs, forms, and Ajax calls from abuse.

There’s bbP last post, bbP private groups, bbP Quote, bbP shortcodes as well as bbp style pack.
Thanks for that. But this is quite confusing, the form I used was copied from dashboard>settings>shortcodes>additional shortcodes.
that shortcode is from bbp-style-pack plugin and should read
[bsp-display-topic-index show='5' forum ='10,11,12']
note bsp-display… not bbp-display…
bbp style pack
for details, go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>shortcodes
@artmuns: Totally acknowledge the user problem with expired pages causing this over here, and certainly copying the post-text is the first line of defence, just curious as to what it was in the superseded code that cached the text.
Maybe the following,
add_filter( 'bbp_verify_nonce_request_url', 'my_bbp_verify_nonce_request_url', 999, 1 );
function my_bbp_verify_nonce_request_url( $requested_url )
{
return 'your_URI' . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
}
Now the functions.php has been dropped from Twenty Twenty Two and onwards, so might not be possible in the theme, could be a separate plugin, or a request for a cache module.
For caching, use LiteSpeed over here, just added into the ESI Cache section these:
bbp_verify_nonce_request
wp_verify_nonce
Not sure if they are correct, will post back if not. 🙂
Shortcode actually used: [bbp-display-topic-index show=’15’ forum =’283,285,515,523,1159,21099′]
OK so I found the shortcode [bbp-display-topic-index show=’5′ forum =’10,11,12′] which should have done what we want if we’d specified all forums except the one we want excluded.
However, this doesn’t seem to work properly, only two of the six forums specified have topics displayed despite all six being represented in the default view (15 topics, using [bbp-topic-index]).
As said in the title, I want the options to choose Topic Type and Topic Status gone for normal users. When posting a topic, it would post them with Topic Type as Open by default, and Topic Status as Normal by default.
It’s just to simplify the process of posting topics. I know not enough PHP to make my own form, so I’ll be grateful for any help customizing the Topic Form (that you get from the shortcode [bbp-topic-form forum_id=$forum_id]
Corrected: the photos vanish as soon as I publish the page. However, they are seen in the preview.
And I added the bbpress shortcode, the images, and everything else to a newly created page before doing this. No images when using the bbpress shortcode. Absent the photos bbpress shortcode.

Correction – as soon as I publish the page, the images disappear. But they are visible in preview.
And this was on a new page I created by adding the bbpress shortcode first, then the images and everything else. With bbpress shortcode – no images. Without bbpress shortcode – images.
I think I found a solution that makes me confused.. It works if I add the forum using shortcode first, and then add pictures.
I run:
Wordpress 6.4.2
bbpress 2.6.9
bbPress WP Tweaks 1.4.4
When I remove the shortcode for the single forum. The images work again.
So I added a forum on a wordpress page using shortcode. After that all the images on the page (outside the forum) disappeared. And I cannot add any – well I can add images, but they will not show (and no error messages). I have searched the posts here but cannot see an answer to this issue.
I run the widget for all forums at the bottom of the page.
so with root set as chats and a chats page and the shortcode, you can then add your desired shortcode above the forums one.
it is unusual to see index.php included in a url
https://meltdowncnc.com/wordpress2/index.php/forums/topic/website-test-committee-input/
what theme are you using?
I deactivated AWPCP. When I hover over the edit button, it shows the same link as before. It now takes me to the Edit Page with only the shortcode [AWPCPEDITAD] showing.
ok, so if you hover the mouse over the edit bitton, you should see in the bottom left hand corner where that button will take you – ie a url such as
https://meltdowncnc.com/forums/topic/xxx/edit
can you tell me what you one says please
