Thanks Robin W

I am using Advada and bbPress 2.5.8-5815.

I have replied to a few of the comments on my website and now they show MY post as the latests so I was wondering if there was a blip

[Robin W]

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 twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

[Robin W]

interesting problem

the link http://www.bruuuce.com/members/si/ resolves to http://www.bruuuce.com/theboard/topic/si-on-sabbatical/

so the sending page – eg a forum page correctly links to where it thinks the profile is. Something in between then redirects the url to the result.

I’d suggest it is probably theme or plugin related.

As a test :

Plugins

Deactivate all but bbpress and buddypress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error. If not try bbpress on it’s own.

Themes

Hi,
Some people that came here for questions were using the Divi theme and it seemed to work fine as the questions were related to layout.
For the Lifestyle Pro, some people copied bbpress file to a child theme to be able to tune things.

But I fully agree with Robin that a test site is what you need !

Pascal.

seems it is pasting the date of the original topic, not the date of it’s latest reply.

so the site is posting

when it should be posting

<a title="Reply To: 2016 Targets" href="http://www.harrisonchapmankarate.com/forums/topic/2016-targets/#post-3442">17 hours, 55 minutes ago</a>

what theme and plugins are you using?

[Robin W]

no reason why you shouldn’t use either of your ideas anive – just amek sure you do have a test site

Make a fresh post if you have further queries

Thanks Robin and dongvan03 for your advice. But I am still a newbie when it comes to testing and all this stuff about creating a sub-domain. Maybe I should just get another cheap domain and webhost and reproduced test pages on that website to test out each of those themes. On the other hand, I could use back that third website located at ICV where the initial crash first occurred since it is a simple one page website on a local government sponsored grant that is going to be terminated shortly and which I am no longer promoting.

I will carry out the plugin testings and come running back here again if I encounter problems along the way. But it will be great if anyone in here happened to use the same themes as me and can share their experiences.

[Robin W]

The best advice I can give you is to create a test site for each of your live sites.

This not only allows you to test new plugins, be confident in taking and using backups but also be happy that you can re-create your site should your host provider go bankrupt and you lose everything.

Hi All,
I have installed latest bbPress in our website. We have few users on our site as subscribers role. What I need that if admin post any topic from backend then all the users of our site get automatically subscribed of that topic or they will get automatic email notification as new forum topic is posted.

I have tried this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-notify/ as well as different tricks mentioned in different forums but nothing works.

So, if anyone provide any solution or suggestion, I will be thankful.

Hello,
I’m sorry, I do not speak English 🙂
Still, I created a translation for bbPress 2.5.8 and some of its extensions (Ultimate Member – Profile Completeness 1.1.9 and other working). Translation into the Czech language, already tested. Can be add it somewhere?
Plus I found a bug in the Czech translation, which is in the profiles – is possible fix it somewhere?

I’m sorry, but I’m almost blind, so I hard to find answers.

Thank you for your advice.
Mějte se krásně, Vendulka

[Robin W]

Do you still have a problem?

I am unsure from your various rants what exactly the issue is – I need a problem definition to be able to help, and don’t know from your name ‘iapologizepleasedeleteme’ whether you have now fixed your issue.

If you still have the problem then – given that you have been pressing lots of buttons – I would suggest you contact you host provider and ask then to revert your site to a previous backup – almost all host providers take backups every 24 hours. This will get you site working again.

I would then invest some time in creating a test site – to do development in your live site is just stupid, as you have found out. See https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/testing-your-bbpress-installation/creating-a-test-site/

[Stephen Edgar]

There is a new fix, rather an alternate that better detects and reflects the root cause of the issue:

Replace if ( 'publish' === $parent->post_status ) { with if ( ! empty( $parent ) ) {

The full details can be viewed in the WordPress ticket:
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/35084

And the latest patch:
https://core.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/35084/35084.5.diff

Also please refrain from email, the bbPress team can only respond to issues we can read here in the public forums or our bug tracking and reporting system. If the current fix here is not working for you please add that here with as much detail as you can so that we can try and configure our forum configuration to match yours and reproduce the issue.

Hi,

I know I should be using the latest version of BBPress, but I can’t get it to import “correctly” and I don’t want to lose 7 years worth of posts.

With that said, I am moving my installation to a new host, and I keep getting these error messages. I have done this before, and didn’t have any problems.

So I am wondering why now?

I have a screen shot of the error codes here: http://fasteddypublishing.info/bbpress-error.png

I would really appreciate it if someone could help me figure if it’s something I am doing, or a problem with my new hosting server’s PHP.

Thanks!

Scott

My findings (I mailed those also to @robin-w – but again – I dont think that his plugin is causing and problems)

• I restored my test site back to 4.3.1
• Added some topics and replays to subforums (nested forums)
• Then upgraded to 4.4
• After I refreshed the logged in user there seems to be no difference at first
• This is the link : http://(my_test_site)/forums/topic/new-topic-in-4-3-1-in-subforum

/#post-288 (Located in home › Forums › Website › Site Suggestions)

• Clicking on “Site suggestions” gives oops – page cannot be found
• Clicking on “Website” gives me a list of availables forums (which is as it was in 4.3.1)
• Clicking Forums > NotNestedForum (which is not nested ofc) still gives me access to topics. Adding a reply to it also does work. Also does added a new topic.
• Any nested forum is still unreachable but when I go directly to #post-288 which is in subforum wp4.4 doesnt complain. I am able to reply to that topic. *But creating new topics doesnt work ofc*

So

• Going to apply the fix : if ( ! in_array( $parent->post_status, get_post_stati( array( ‘internal’ => true ) ) ) ) *does not work* so i reverted it back
• Toggling the rights from forums and users : doesnt work
• Going to apply the fix again : if ( ! in_array( $parent->post_status, get_post_stati( array( ‘internal’ => true ) ) ) ) *Still doesnt work*

Oke, what now…

• Unnest a forum (parent = root) oh yeah that works…
• Nest it again.. Again not accessible.

Since I made some changes with togglings rights and moving nested forums to the “root” of the forums I decided to restore my testsite once more and directy move a nested forum to the “root”

• ye – moving them to the top of the forumlist (unnest) is all I needed to do basically – sure there is a bug tho but the suggested fix is not a solid fix

The fix didn’t fix anything in my situation – I have no clue if the “bbp private groups” plugin has anything the do with it (to be fair – I think it does not) but reverting back to 4.3.1 is a *bad* idea. If you must restore and backup prior to your upgrade otherwise just stick to 4.4 and unnest the forums for now.

Hi

We are using bbPress plugin for our forums. We also have the bbPRess-wp4 installed and activated. When we create a private forum the forum topics show up properly. However when we click on the individual topics, it loads contents of the first topic in the forum. For example I have the following private forum called FEA Team. Under it are topics

Test1
Test2
Test3

bbpress Version:2.5.8-5815.
wordpress Version 4.3.1
Clicking on Test3/Test2 does not open the correct topic. It opens Test1- the first topic always. This happens only in private forums. I appreciate any help / info.

Thanks!
For any others that may need help:
In the latest wordpress installation the “BBloggin Widget” is called “BBpress Login widget” and you drop it in the “Primary widget area” which is located on the right of the middle.

[Col_Blimp]

no but just tested that and it has no effect.

[Pascal Casier]

Seems like you have done all the tests I know off, let’s search for other help.

Hey guys sorry to be the guy and post this I know its probably been post a milllion times. I am using the theme Shore for my Website because its just a theme that I enjoy. Bbpress & Buddypress seem to not want to work with this theme. I need a good forum and social section. I have tested by switching to 2016 themes it worked properly. I also enabled and disabled every plugin, even reverting back to early wordpress versions. Now is there anything I can do in the child theme to customize to get BBpress & buddypress working properly. I have basic knowledge of coding I did some in High School given enough time I can figure it out. Just getting pointed in the right direction would be huge.
My website http://www.wasdleagues.com/forums/
Let me know if you need more info I want to make this easy as possible for you.

Many Thanks

Hi all

I have installed the actual version of bbPress.
I am using Photolux theme and the forums are not readable
because of the color settings (font, background).
How can I change color settings of bbPress ?

Thanks and best regards

It seems the theory is that reverting from 4.4 back to 4.3 still leaves “something” that is breaking things. Does anyone know what the “something” is that is unchanged in the process of reverting to 4.3? What change in the database or a file? I would like to confirm that issue exists in my current setup and test my backup/restore process.

[shades404]

I did indeed go back to 4.3.1 which altered to database… thats true
So in short
1) upgraded to 4.4 > problem
2) downgraded to 4.3.1 > problem remains
3) re-upgraded to 4.4 > problem remains
4) “hacked” the function suggested by casiepa > problem remains
5) re-applied all setting as mentioned above (the “hack” at point 4 is still there)
Hope this enlights it a bit more > problem solved

Unfortunately i do not have a 4.3.1 > 4.4 situation anymore coz I did the same action also on my testsite

[shades404]

I have a testsite were I have (ofc) the same problem – I will check tomorrow toggling public/private with do the trick. To be fair – it did that (and ofc toggling the groups on the forum but after that uses were still complaining so I toggled all the users aswell – But I will check tomorrow on my testsite)
