Nevermind.
Right now I am using the (bbpress) Forum Search on my Main Sidebar. I also have the bbpress shortcodes listed below. If I check this box: Forum Prefix (Prefix all forum content with the Forum Root slug (Recommended), my search works but then it disables my bbpress shortcodes. How can I make the bbpress shortcodes work with the Forum Prefix box checked?

Hi,
I am hoping that someone here will be able to help with this as it’s a rather frustrating issue and I can’t figure out why it’s happening to start with.
I have set my forum to the ‘rating level’ that will accept posts using phrases such as ‘porn’ and curse words…that being the case I was rather surprised when someone attempted to create a thread in a forum using a jokey phrase including the word porn and it wouldn’t allow the user to post. I checked the post, checked all the settings (I have no words in the blacklist – the forums are monitored almost 24/7 and we have a rather exclusive membership so I felt this was unnecessary at the present time) and there seems to be nothing amiss so the reasons for this being done are a mystery to me. I am able to add the extra words in the sentence in the CMS but this is not something I wish to have to do every time someone wants to refer to something specific like this.
Is there a reason why this would be happening?
I have recently upgraded to the latest versions of Buddypress (2.3.2.1) and BBpress (2.5.8) and also was upgraded to WordPress 4.3.
The site is set up to work with the Make template but I have tested this on the other templates and as it works when I remove a single word from the actual post I know that it HAS to be some hidden filter somewhere that I am unable to remove.
My site is found at http://www.bewitching-fiction.com
I’m wondering if it is easy enough to migrate a google group to bbpress? I’ve come across a couple of services out there that offer this service (albeit without testimonials) but was interested to know if there was a plug-in or scraper service that can do this for me. I have time to make some amendments and changes but would generally like to automate the process, including the migration of users.
Someone posted the same question on this forum four years ago and received no reply…
Hi Rob,
As I said (in an edit of my OP, which you may have missed), I have tried a number of different themes, including twenty fifteen, twenty fourteen, twenty twelve, Avada, Oceanic… they all demonstrate the same symptoms, and Avada even supports bbpress (as does, I assume, the WordPress themes). All themes are latest versions.
Is the theme you are testing Avada? There could always be a theme that could cause an issue, or even just a new theme update.
bbPress 2.5.7 and 2.5.8 do not work with latest versions of WordPress CMS and WP Client plugin.
Will work fine if WP Client plugins are deactivated but as soon as they are activated the forum breaks.
Any ideas?
still have not heard back from the user, however i tested this issue myself. This is the page i was sent to 
However, when i clicked the back button all the text was still in the new topic creation window and i simply re submitted the topic and it worked.
Hi Robkk,
I have tested your code. Well I can select in the admin panel “edit topic” or “new topic” “featured image”, I select the picture…when I turn back to the topic, no picture. It doesn’t remain selected.
I use the latest WordPress: 4.30.
Could you help me?
I thank you in advance

Thanks, the code from github is running outside of a forum loop and works on a localhost test site. They used the code in loop-forum.php
<?php if (($has_replies = (strstr(bbp_get_forum_freshness_link(), '<a')))): ?>
<?php bbp_topic_title(array( 'post_id' => bbp_get_forum_id() ) ); ?>, <?php _ex('by ', 'bbPress Freshness Author', 'bunyad'); ?>
<?php bbp_author_link( array( 'post_id' => bbp_get_forum_last_active_id(), 'size' => 45 ) ); ?></span>
<?php endif; ?>
This is my code running inside a loop in loop-single-forum.php and didn’t work, will just output my forum title for some strange reason if I post to that forum’s sub-forum.
Okay I found a few fixes for this possible bug, I will need to contact the devs later to see if they had seen something similar before. One is an htaccess rewrite rule and the other is really something simple.
Okay you can try the trailing slash fix mentioned here first to see if it helps, but you are not really experiencing a 404 error because the search term you are searching is stripped for some reason.
bbPress 2.4 // ERROR // Search stopped working…
As a test try setting your permalinks to default and try searching again to see if it will keep your search term and search for it. The query search?action=bbp-search-request&bbp_search=adwords is usually seen in the default permalink structure instead of /search.
Also make sure you do not have a trailing slash in any of the slugs in Settings>Forums.
The htaccess rewrite method is adding this to your htaccess file on your site that is uaually in the WordPress directory to solve the issue, but do not try this just yet, I don’t want you messing with your htaccess file
# BEGIN bbpress search hack
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^action=(.*)&bbp_search=(.*)$
RewriteRule ^/soeg/(.*)$ http://antonhoelstad.dk/soeg/%2/? [L]
</IfModule>
# END bbpress search hack
When I tested it, it doesn’t have the extra added query ?action=bbp-search-request&bbp_search=” like your site does.
I also tested it with/without the forum root slug and it worked fine for me.
I have the dame problem for more then six months.
I have disabled all plugins
But still no email notifications
So I will follow this post with interest
I have the latest WordPress and the 2012 theme.
Everything as clean as possible
Hi,
I need a help to solve my problem. i have latest bbpress installation.
Actually i have 6 forums are there.Out of 6 forums i need to prevent users to stop reply in 2 forums. I means that 2 forums should be read only forum. How can i do this.
Please help.
thanks in advance.
Thanks.
Just did these tests and I still get the ‘starting conversion’ but no error. It just keeps spinning.
Dear Dev-Team,
I’m having a strange problem.
Our script creates a new forum if another post_type gets published.
The script has been up running and tested without issues a couple of days ago.
All WP + DB entries get set; even all bbpress post meta information (incl. ping_status, etc)
The created forum DB-entry does look 1:1 the same as a manually published forum.
There is no visible difference within the DB-entries. Also ‘publish’ status is set.
The only way to ‘publish’ the script-forum is entering the forum and hit/click publish again (WP backend). No additional settings need to change, only pressing ‘publish’ does the trick.
After doing this I’ve checked the DB/Debug again; still looks 1:1 the same.
Have you ever encountered such a problem?
I’ve tried resetting user-roles; changing bbpress user to super-admin privileges; deactivating plugins and scripts without any positive outcome.
Before re-installing the entire site I was hoping that you guys know what this could be?
We use “wp_insert_post( $my_forum );” for saving the private forum into the DB. Could this be a DB error? How to overcome such weirdness?
Wordpress Version: 2.4.3
bbpress Version: 2.5.8 & 2.5.7 tested
Tested as SuperAdmin, Admin, and Moderator.
Website isn’t live to the public at the moment.
Please let me know if you need any credentials (private).
Any help, trick or workaround is very much appreciated.
Many thanks in advance.
Kindest regards,
Chris
Hey Robkk!
First of all, thanks for noticing, and nope it is the latest, says 2.5.8.
Oh and by the way, i completely purged all of apache, including all of the files in /var/www, and started over.
now at least the ugly links work, but the pretty ones still don’t.
ok, and then i put all into the /var/www/ folder directly this time, as the install instructions for buddy press state, that wordpress must under no circumstances be in any subfolder.
i have installed no buddy press so far but only bbpress, that is alongside multilingual the only plugin so far.
but i am actually planning on installing quite a number, i found at least 24242 so far 😀
now the ugly links are really ugly…
i’d like people to be able to see the topic/content from a link in a mail… 🙂
can i have it like that? 😀
Not entirely sure really but I have tested themes that add next and prev post nav links to bbPress on accident and it seems to work. You may need to add the php tag to the bbPress forum templates, maybe just output it in a bbpress.php file with a condtional to only show on single forums.

you can use the shortcode [bbp-topic-index] in a new page – this will show the latest 15 topics across all forums with pagination.
@strategeek
its been a while and im not 100% sure this will work (in terms of sanitation checks) but if you change
$html[] = '<select class="chzn-select" multiple="multiple" name="bbp_topic_tags[]" id="bbp_topic_tags">';
foreach($tags as $tag){
$selected = '';
if (in_array($tag->name, $selectedTagsArray)) {
$selected = 'selected="selected"';
}
$html[] = '<option '.$selected.' value="'.$tag->name.'">'.$tag->name.'</option>';
}
$html[] = '</select>';
to
foreach($tags as $tag){
$selected = '';
if (in_array($tag->name, $selectedTagsArray)) {
$selected = 'checked="selected"';
}
$html[] = '<input '.$selected.' type="checkbox" name="bbp_topic_tags" value="'.$tag->name.'">'.$tag->name;
}
i haven’t tested it but it should get you close
@rommelxcastro
This kind of looks normal since when you edit the topic all you see is the Text editor which will show the html tags.
Visual vs Text Editor
Also did you copy and paste the content of the whole topic page as an test, or was it just like that??
Are you using this plugin??

Thanks for sharing. I shall test it and give feedback soon.
Hello,

So, first, here’s all versions used :

Theme used : Cry Out Nirvana 1.0.6
A few other extensions are installed :
Active Directory Integration
Advanced Custom Fields
Advanced Custom Fields: Nav Menu Field

I think there’s everything.
I can’t give a link to the website, at the moment it’s internal, in progress and next, it will be our new Intranet
So, here’s the issue I have.
My users make forum posts, seems to be OK.
When they try to modify a post, or if I try to modify it myself as admin, I don’t get the window to change the text but an article I made “sticky”, the article is not opened to be modified.
As an example
Link to the post : mysite.fr/index.php/foruminterneimestia/suject/test/
Button Modify : mysite.fr/index.php/foruminterneimestia/suject/test/edit/
Page I receive : mysite.fr/index.php/2015/08/10/edito/
Do you have any idea ?
Ask me any question (but the password)
Hi there, I would like to promote the forum on my home page, other than having just a call to action button to direct them to the forums page, is there a way to incorporate any element of the forums on to my home page? So like perhaps pull in the latest post created which they then can see and click through to the Forums page.
Thanks.
I noticed the problem before any replies were posted to the two threads I tested with. So I’m not sure yet if the freshness is correct for later replies. But it’s definitely off for the original post. Instead of the original freshness time being based on the time the topic is actually posted, it’s based on when the topic was saved on the back end. So it’s making new topics look older than they actually are on the public side.
If the topic has any new replies to it, the Fresness time changes when any new replies are posted. Freshness time is basically tells you the time when the Last Post was posted, not the published date.
To see the published date, go into the topic and toward the top-left of the topic by the labels Author and Posts you should see the published date.
But if the topic did have no replies, and also shows the wrong time, then I might need to report as a bug/do testing to duplicate the issue.
