However, in Troubleshooting Mode, updated topic “test 3” is being shown correctly.
Active plugins: bbPress and bbp style pack
FYI in issue #1 the post, when viewed, is empty whether the body contains table tags or not:
test 1:
<table><tbody><tr><td>hello</td></tr></tbody></table>
test 2:
hello
This is in Troubleshooting Mode with only bbpress and bbp style pack active.
Does this occur anytime you try and access the forum page?
if so, 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
ok, I’m a bit lost as to what your testing is showing.
The essence of fault finding is taking a setup that works and finding the difference between that and one that doesn’t work.
so I have a test site working with bbpress and style pack and nothing else. If your site with that same setup doesn’t work, then we can find the difference.
If it does work, then yes adding back plugins until it fails is a good strategy, but until we are both seeing the same, then it is not doing much good?
ok, so this on my test site with just bbpress and style pack, using admin and keymaster roles publishes fine
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
hello
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
do you still get a critical error with this combination, and if so I still need the exact error it produces
thanks, and for your testing, what combination are you using?
I’m not asking you to try others levels, just getting your tests and my tests to be the same !
- I have tried Troubleshooting mode, with no active plugins.
- Activated bbPress, then bbp style pack.
- Topic “test 1” now displays, but body shows “This topic is empty”, even though the HTML tags are seen when the topic is edited.
Do I need to activate more plugins?
I have the following bbp-related plugins installed:

FYI I also created a topic “test 2”, that includes “hello”, but no table tags:
topic: test 2
The response is the same as with topic “test 1”.
Hi @robin-w,
This topic saved, but viewing it showed the following page:

There has been a critical error on this website.
Learn more about troubleshooting WordPress.
topic: test 1
ok, so in the backend if I create a topic with a title of ‘test’ and this content
<table>
<tbody>
<tr>
<td>
hello
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
</table>
Then it publishes all fine.
Does that work for you, and if so, can you give me exact steps to recreate problem.
Also able to edit that topic so changed hello to goodbye and it updated fine
WP: 6.8.1 (latest).
bbPress: 2.6.13 (latest).
bbPress Move Topics 1.1.6 (latest).
bbp style pack: 6.3.9 (latest).
themes: Twenty Fifteen and Twenty Twenty-five.
site: https://hollandnumerics.org.uk
Forum topic contains <TABLE>, <TBODY>, <TR> and <TD> HTML tags.
- Able to edit title, body, tags in Forum Topic.
- Clicking [Update] starts update.
- Edit viewer disappears and Post list appears.
- Forum Topic is unchanged.
- No error messages.
Have also tried moving Topic to Page, but this fails to change type.
Creating new Forum Topic with copy of body text also does not complete.
sorry read you first post too fast !
I did the fix for hello elementor some while ago, and things may have changed.
ok, on my test site the forums display whether style pack is enables or not, and indeed whether the option is ticked in theme support, and it may be my fix as such is no longer doing anything.
So without style pack, what is broken in either the forums, or your posts?
I’m cleaning up an old abandoned forum…
It has over 60,000 members but few are real users and have written posts.
Is there a way to delete all users who have not written posts?
Chatgpt wrote me this script and it seems to have worked but if anyone has another safer and tested method I prefer it.
Thanks
DELETE u, um
FROM wp_users u
LEFT JOIN wp_usermeta um ON u.ID = um.user_id
LEFT JOIN wp_posts p ON u.ID = p.post_author AND p.post_type IN ('topic', 'reply')
WHERE p.ID IS NULL;
reply threading means that you can reply to a reply and it will show against that reply, it lets a thread go in many directions – personally I hate it and would not use it.
‘Voices’ means the number of different people who have contributed to a thread.
As to your original question, I cannot replicate the issue, so I can only suggest you try the standard fault finding viz:
it could be a theme or plugin issue
Themes

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.

Then come back
upgrade to the latest version of bbp style pack
dashboard>updates and select bbp style pack and update
then go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Custom CSS
and add this
.bsp-mark-all {
display : none ;
}
I just installed bb press and installed bbPress WP Tweaks. I am trying to add login and register and lost password however the sidebar does not show. I am using the latest version of WordPress. What other option do I have to allow users to register, etc.
Hello.
I have a WordPress site with a configured BBPress Forum and a WPMAIL SMTP plugin.
I recently started receiving 2 mistakes that appear at the same time on the WPMAIL SMTP event log.
On WPMAIL SMTP I tested the sending of emails, and the site is sending email normally.
What may be causing these EVENTS?
See topic on WPMAIL SMTP FORUM:
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/bbpress-related-log-events/
I’ve created pages for my website for register, login, and forgot password to use my forum but when I test it out no email sends to the user. How can I get the emails to send? Not sure if it matters, but I am using Kubio pro for my website theme. I’m new to (and not that good at) building website so any help is appreciated. Thanks.
I just did a test post, closed it to simulate the same post status and then trashed it, all worked fine. So the issue is why the older posts couldn’t do the same thing. Bizarre.
of the original, or a test post?
bbpress uses custom post types, so uses their status in the posts table (not post meta) to determine whether to display.
So on trashing a topic, I would expect the post_status on the posts table to be changed to trash.
To enable you to ‘untrash’ a topic (say if it was a mistake) in tbe post_meta table, I would then expect to see
_bbp_pre_trashed_replies a:4:{i:0;i:33965;i:1;i:33963;i:2;i:33959;i:3;i:33956;}
_wp_trash_meta_status publish
_wp_trash_meta_time 1748443956
The trash status being the status BEFORE it was trashed, so that it can go back to this if you made a mistake.
I am not sure what the other statuses are doing there, if you have been trashing and untrashing, other stuff might happen, and other bbpress plugins might be adding things.
I’d suggest you try creating a test topic and then trashing it, and seeing what happens, so that you can see a ‘clean’ set of entries.
If you still have problems, then it could be a theme or plugin issue, so I’d try creating and trashing a topic with the below happening.

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.
I’d be happy to take part in testing! I have a large live forum with over 10,000 topics. Let me know when the free AI model appears. P.S. – I’m going to test wordpress.org— ai-engine plugin – but more with the MCP purpose for administration
Thanks for your efforts! I think the plugin would be much more popular for testing if you added free AIs there. And the ability to limit yourself not only to the forum topic, but also to a special professional section. This solves the problem of spam and empty talk.
