the patch might not be created right. I don’t think you create the patch from the plugin version but maybe the latest alpha version or the latest version you can download from the trunk using SVN.
You can download/download using SVN using the url from here.

Are you sure how you inserted the filter will not cause any issues?
I am specifically talking about how $blacklist = both of these.
$blacklist = trim( get_option( 'moderation_keys' ) );
$blacklist = apply_filters('bbp_moderation_keys', $blacklist);
Here are a bunch of helpful guides that I am just going to drop here.
Working With Patches
Installing Via SVN
I am running a WordPress network with the latest version of Buddypress and bbpress. The site is http://theglobalschool.net/science and it is run for high school students.
My problem is that every time a blog is viewed, that viewer is added as a user, which makes things very confusing after a short while. Is there any way I can prevent this from happening? I noticed there is a checkbox in the settings for forums but it doesn’t seem to resolve the problem.
Thanks,
Rob.

1. Well yeah the cache staying not removing is the issue, it could be a bug in WordPress itself since that caches the oembeds. What peice of code did you use to fix this?
12. I couldn’t duplicate the issue on latest Firefox on W10 using the html5 blank theme.
Yeah I know, I bookmarked most of the suggestions for features for the bbPress plugin on this site, but if you are experiencing some kind of issue, then why not help out too.
What I got from you that could possibly make the bbPress plugin are.
option to turn off feeds.
add topic auto-suggestion (might be better for the forum search though)
Integrate some plugins like report content (maybe external links)
Export and import settings
View counter
Custom notices
Specific forum permissions
Avatar system
Most of the SEO things could be best to have in a separate plugin, or should be left to the theme and how it is set up.
@pinkishhue
The forum requests and feedback is for this type of thing. If you think some codex article should be available, features should be in bbPress, this site bbpress.org should have some style fixes, etc. this forum is where you post all that in. If you need to create a new topic with a list of suggestions in a list from yourself, you can do that.
The way the menu items show up has always been like that since bbPress v1 standalone. It could be easier for users to see all the post types in one section, this might need another opinion though. I think it is fine either way though. It will be annoying to change all the codex articles if we do change that though haha.
Alright I am going to just test out this theme later today to see all the issues it presents and try to resolve them.
Try this on a local development server or just a test site in general o the site you are trying to import from. Cloning the whole site might be the best way to import from one WordPress site to another WordPress site.

1. If the oEmbeds are disabled in the options, then how would I still have oEmbed cache accumulating?
12. I use Firefox (latest) on Linux and Android. I occasionally use Chromium (also the latest version on Linux).
By the way, thanks for all of your help. However, keep in mind that my main purpose for this thread is to give the BBPress developers some ideas rather than fix my problems.
It’s not a solution to the problem but just a work around.
What does this mean?
I think this has something to do with it, and it’s probably part of some Gulp testing-thing they are using or so.

I don’t think any styles have changed in the beta release, if there is you can use the default CSS styles from the latest stable version.
It might be better to copy the files into a theme you are working on though instead of the beta plugin. It should still work.
1. That is oembed cache you are removing with WP-Sweep, not the oembeds itself.
5. That was just 8-9 months ago. Some plugins do not need to update as frequently as others. This plugin basically is just using some bbPress hooks and filters to create its functionality for itself.
12. What browser are you using? I could test this in a minute. And I guess any theme that is based off of the HTML5 boilerplate like HTML Blank theme, I would come across the same issue as you??
Just curious, for some reason it doesn’t work anymore..
I’ve done this for many years now, visit the Trunk and download the latest version with all raw changes. Activate it locally and run some tests, create themes, make changes..
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk
Right now, when I download this latest raw version of bbPress and activate it in my local environment it doesn’t do the trick it should do for me. bbPress native styles will not load frontend and in the dashboard the icon font is broken, probably lots more doesn’t work like normal.
I just want to install a clean and lean bbPress version only in raw alpha/beta state.
Thanks,
I just checked that someone has installed bbPress Notify (No-Spam) plugin. This could be actually the cause of the problem. I will test it and let you know if I find what is going on.
Thank you very much for your help 🙂
Problem/Scenario – On my website (http://dcjtech.info/) using the latest version of WordPress, BBPress, and BuddyPress, I closed a topic in my forum. Now, the tags belonging to the closed topic are listed as “empty topic tags”. This issue is always reproducible.
Specific Example – For instance, I closed a topic (http://dcjtech.info/topic/lindows/) and then I see under “Dashboard > Topic > Topic Tags” that “linspire” has a count of zero. Also, in the BBPress statistics widget, it says there are twenty “empty topic tags”. However, http://dcjtech.info/tag/linspire/ lists the Lindows topic as a topic with the “linspire” tag.
Question – Why do these “empty topic tags” appear/form when closing a topic and how can it be fixed and prevented?

Sorry for the late reply, I just approved your topic.
Does it not work like this if you enabled the forum prefix??
http://yoursite/forums/view/latest-topics/
Also if you used the view shortcodes, it should be that specific page url.
These two bbpres shortcodes I added to my Main Menu are not working. They were working fine yesterday but not it says ‘That page can’t be found’.

Sorry for the late reply, I just approved this post.
The topic you went to is 5 years ago when bbPress was a standalone forum software but the latest version of bbPress IS A PLUGIN of WordPress.
If you are using the latest bbPress plugin, you are using the WordPress dashboard to manage all your topics, replies, and forums.
I’m trying to find the correct filter to jump in on, and the most logical to me was ‘bbp_get_user_role’ but if I try to return from that filter ‘bbp_blocked’ or false all the time (just as a test before I add my logic), it seems to completely ignore my response and keeps using the user’s standard role as decided by BBPress.
What filter can I use to force my own custom roles (I am looking at a custom piece of user meta data to decipher their ability to use the forums and it needs to be dynamic).
Hi,
New to bbpress and wordpress 🙂 I’m trying to install a forum on my main site and I’m facing little issues.
Here is my case:
1. I installed wordpress on my root directory.
2. Then I added the BBPress plugin.
3. Now my forums are loading with this URL structure – example.com/forum/test-forum
I would like my forum to be displayed with this URL structure – example.com/test-forum/
Is there a bbpress fucntion to modify this?
A bbpress function or a plugin is much appreciated rather than a .htaccess rule.
Thanks in advance.
Hello,
I’ve a caching(?) problem and I’ve no idea how to solve it.
I use bbpress on a single website in a multisite wordpress installation with the [bbp-forum-index] bbcode on a custom page as front page.
Now I realised that then I’m moving topics or deleting some of them the topic- and post-counter as the freshness column doesn’t update. There still seems to be a topic but then clicking on the forum there isn’t.
My first suspect is the cache but after smashing the F5 button and manually clearing the browser cache it’s still there. Also topics deleted a long time ago are still in the freshness column but not in the topic- and post-counter.
We’re not using any caching plugins. The only thing that comes near a caching plugin is the plugin wordfence that has a caching option, but that function is disabled. I also deactivated the plugin but nothing changed.
Now I’m quite confused. Does someone know of any problems with following plugins?
What I’ve tried:
– deactivating wordfence
– use the Twenty Fifteen theme instead of evolve (on a test page same result if I move topics between different main categories or parent forums)
What I use:
– WordPress 4.3
– bbPress 2.5.8
– evolve theme 3.4.3 with a child theme
on http://hackish.codes/hcforum/
test website: http://hackish.codes/testpage/
These plugins are active together with bbpress (on both the test website and the productive forum):
– Breadcrumb NavXT 5.2.2
– Redux Framework 3.5.7
– Wordfence Security 6.0.15
– WPML Multilingual CMS 3.2.6 (active on multisite but deactivated through the WPML intern deactivation)
– WP Statistics 9.5.3
– BuddyPress 2.3.3
– WP Hide Admin Bar 2.0
– Orbisius Child Theme Creator 1.2.8

It is a members only Forum, so I have registered a test account for you.
Username: bbpress
Password: bbpress
Thanx
I believe I found out the problem. The test user I created had valid permissions, but he never clicked on the email sent during registration. The forum works for a normal, old, email checked user.
I just tested on my test site, and I do not really see an issue with the OG tags. Maybe there is something else. You may need to try some troubleshooting.
Troubleshooting
You might want to test the importer on WAMP first to get the feel of how it works and is set up.
You should be able to style your forums before or after. You are just moving data over while importing.
thanks casiepa. i agree with you on open source, but that is a separate issue. if my comments were taken as slamming bbpress, that was not intended. i am just direct and make my comments based on the results i am getting. i do not have issue with anything else on the site and all other email notifications are working. on the other hand, it is worth noting that i believe i have isolated the problem. i will post here on the details if all tests work out correctly.
No. I just installed it and am running the latest version of wordpress. I have not used it before, but it seems rather clunky to be honest and I am no novice. This is the first site where I have required a forum, so it is not a good first impression. It has been around a long time and I am surprised it is so dodgy. The site on which I am using it is live, so I must a wait until later to try to deactivate several plugins, but I will let you know what happens after I do. I see a lot of replies on this and many plugin suggestions for something that should be very, very simple. I will wait and see.
