I’ve seen this before, already updated Redux plugin to the latest version but problem seems not to be resolved

[Robin W]

just as a test, can you add

bbp style pack

which has a fix for an issue in 2.6.7 which may or may not relate to this

If you install and activate the style pack plugin, does the problem stay or go away?

[Robin W]

ok, best advice I can give is the standard fault finding :

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

Then come back

Is there a way to have a thread, forum or page that will show what’s new or new posts? I would like to be able to do this not in a sidebar but in an actual thread, forum or page.
I’, using the latest versions of bbpress and WordPress. I have also tried many different themes.

[Robin W]

Sorry, that file is back and corrupted I cannot say why.

I can only suggest it could be a theme or plugin issue

@robin-w could you check your engagements.php on your test forum?
(/yoursite/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/engagements.php)

i’ve got
public function get_users_for_object( $object_id = 0, $meta_key = '', $meta_type = 'post' )

i think $meta_key value shouldn’t be empty…

[Robin W]

ok, again my test site works.

so we need to work out if it is the import, a theme or plugin issue, or something else.

I would suggest next you create a forum, and one topic for it. Then make the forum hidden, and see if this then works.

[Robin W]

having one forum hidden works fine on my test site

hello,

huge thanks for your efforts here !!!!

I’ll test your quick & dirty proposal and let you know

[Robin W]

I am not absolutely sure where you are, but yes everything I expect to work does work on my test site 🙂

[Robin W]

ok, this is free software with free support, and I have limited time to help – it works on my test site, so I cannot say why it does not work for you. Given that you can control it from the backend, then I hope you have enough of an solution to be workable.

I just found a plugin named Easy Username Updater allowing an admin to change the username and even having a checkbox to send a mail to updated user but user never got the mail. It seems to work on my test site but gave an error when trying to login… Do not use that one !

A second plugin named Username Changer is working without any error and the mail is sent (if selected). This one works like a charm !

I explore this method because all moderators are from my company so I can update and inform them without disturbing customers…

I’ll test that on my production site and let you know the result.

Doing some tests on a fresh WP install (theme Twenty Twenty-one) with only the bbPress plugin gives following results:

I can create topics not assigned to a forum from backend (being super sticky or not) and see them in “All Topics” from backend.
From backend, I can modify those topics
From Frontend, I can modify from top menu (admin menu) but I cannot use the “Modify” menu visible on the topic (this gives me error “Nothing found here” !

So I clearly have a problem caused by one of the other plugin on my production site but it seems bbPress has also a small problem.

Eric Collart
PS: I am OK for any remote control short session to show you the erroneous behavior even on a fresh site.

[ecollart]

Well,

you are now way too deep for me but I understand bbPress could be causing that…

I will deploy a test WP site with only bbPress and Private group plugin and see how it behaves for my 2 opened questions…

This can take a day or two…

Thanks a lot for support !

Eric Collart

[ecollart]

Thank you too !

Isn’t it now included in latest versions ?

Eric Collart

[ecollart]

Huge thanks again !

I am quite happy it is not a bbPress bug ! It was looking too big to be possible but who knows and you helped me a lot pointing the right (I hope) direction.

Is there any known conflict with those plugins ?

I”ll made more tests and post share result here for all.

Eric Collart

[Robin W]

Just tested ‘all topics’ and that is also fine, so yes I would suspect another plugin is adding a permission issue

[Robin W]

ok, I’d suggest you next test with those deactivated and see if it an issue with one of them, and if not test with a default theme.

[Robin W]

ok, from a quick test, I could edit a topic with no parent forum in both the backend, and in any forum that it appears.

I have not tested ‘all topics’ – but given the above, if this is a serious issue for you, then simply allocate it against the most appropriate forum – it will still appear against all forums.

[Robin W]

ok, I am seeing this when logged in or logged out with style pack active

<span class="topic-author">
<a href="/forums/user/testuser1/" title="View testuser1's profile" class="bbp-author-link">
<span class="bbp-author-avatar">
<img alt="" src="..." srcset="..." class="avatar avatar-14 photo" loading="lazy" width="14" height="14">
</span>
<span class="bbp-author-name">testuser1
</span>
</a>
</span>

not sure which you are saying is different as your original post says ‘when user logged in’ in both cases??

[ecollart]

Hello,

Create a new topic without assigning to a forum and you can’t find it anywhere.
Last WP in French
Last bbPress
Ekko theme

I discover that because I was willing to modify such a topic and never found it back !!!
Same if super sticky.

All Topic should have a filter “no forum” ! I am sure it’s somewhere !

Thank you Robin!!! Your remark: “Tick item 3 on the subscription emails tab”, fixed this issue for us too. I had yet to use this great tab before at all but the problem just appeared.

In our case, it was that the editor “link” button was unable to retain user entered hyperlinks. It’s fine online, but user entered links missing from all bbPress emails. During testing using only: WP 5.8.2, 2021 Theme (we use Kleo theme), and bbPress …it still had this issue. That seems to indicate a relationship between WP and BP.

I updated bbPress on 11/30/2021. WP update date unknown but not listed in the lasted 30 days of my backups, so it was earlier. The issue was first reported to me on 11/20, so this all points to a WP 5.8.2 change cause.

No related php error logs or jquery Migrate deprecation logs seen.

Hope this helps.
