ok, I cannot replicate – might be a multisite issue, might not.
all I can suggest further is the standard advice :
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
1. if you set up a new test user and subscribe them, do you see this?
2. suggest you get one user to unsubscribe and subscribe again to a forum, and see if that fixes for them

suspect that as bbpress has custom post types, your sidebar manager is responsible

untested, but this should take out newlines and change the excerpt length to 150 – just change the 150 in the code to whatever length you want.
so firstly you need to alter the default in wordpress which is 55 so
add_filter( 'excerpt_length', 'rew_change_default_length' ) ;
function rew_change_default_length () {
return 150;
}
then alter it in the bbpress function, and change to take out line breaks
add_filter ('bbp_get_topic_excerpt' , 'rew_remove_line_breaks', 10 , 3) ;
function rew_remove_line_breaks ($excerpt, $topic_id, $length){
$topic_id = bbp_get_topic_id( $topic_id );
//change length here
$length = 150 ;
$excerpt = get_post_field( 'post_excerpt', $topic_id );
if ( empty( $excerpt ) ) {
$excerpt = bbp_get_topic_content( $topic_id );
}
$excerpt = trim( strip_tags( $excerpt ) );
//take out line breaks
$excerpt = preg_replace("/\r|\n/", "", $excerpt);
// Multibyte support
if ( function_exists( 'mb_strlen' ) ) {
$excerpt_length = mb_strlen( $excerpt );
} else {
$excerpt_length = strlen( $excerpt );
}
if ( ! empty( $length ) && ( $excerpt_length > $length ) ) {
$excerpt = mb_substr( $excerpt, 0, $length - 1 );
$excerpt .= '…';
}
// Filter & return
return apply_filters( 'rew_get_topic_excerpt', $excerpt, $topic_id, $length );
}
Put this in your child theme’s function file –
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme
or use

I am not a bbpress author, just someone who helps out here.
Every website is unique, and this doesn’t happen on my test site – I have not seen this reported elsewhere as an issue, and the code has a duplicate function check in it.
line 307 of includes/replies/functions
/** Reply Duplicate *******************************************************/
if ( ! bbp_check_for_duplicate( array( 'post_type' => bbp_get_reply_post_type(), 'post_author' => $reply_author, 'post_content' => $reply_content, 'post_parent' => $topic_id, 'anonymous_data' => $anonymous_data ) ) ) {
bbp_add_error( 'bbp_reply_duplicate', __( '<strong>Error</strong>: Duplicate reply detected; it looks as though you’ve already said that.', 'bbpress' ) );
}
I am not able to say why you are getting this.
Hello Robin and thank you for your answer.
I made a test with only bbpress and twenty twenty one theme activated and the issue still occurs :
1) Create a post and double click on the “send” button
2) Your action creates 2 posts instead of one (the situation doesn’t seem handled by bbpress ?).
Please have a look at the following video :
http://www.loom.com/share/b5e083721cea47409a8c7c0ad769329f
I guess anyone can encounter this situation because no theme or function was active in my test. Shouldn’t that be handled by the core ?
Best regards
Yes – it clearly states that firefox will no longer show content that is embedded from another site. And that you have to view it on that actual site.
I know that a few weeks ago I changed the security headers on my site to prevent hijacking but that pertains to my site.
At the moment i have uploaded the image to my site and used the TinyMCE approach.
Look:

Ho hum.
untested, but this should work
add_filter( 'bbp_get_reply_author_display_name' , 'rew_reply_change_to_first_name', 10 , 2 ) ;
function rew_reply_change_to_first_name ($author_name, $reply_id) {
// Get the author ID
$author_id = bbp_get_reply_author_id( $reply_id );
$user = get_userdata($author_id);
$first_name = $user->user_firstname;
return $first_name ;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_author_display_name' , 'rew_topic_change_to_first_name', 10 , 2 ) ;
function rew_topic_change_to_first_name ($author_name, $topic_id) {
// Get the author ID
$author_id = bbp_get_topic_author_id( $topic_id );
$user = get_userdata($author_id);

I use the BuddyX-PRO theme on the live-site. I tested BBPress with the free BuddyX theme and all parts were translated.
I’ve contacted WBcom again, after they told me last week it was an issue of BBpress.
Thanks for your help.
Hi, I’m having a strange problem where the order of replies is mostly right, but in a majority of the threads there is a recent reply or two that appear in the middle of the thread. Particularly affected are question / answer type threads where there are only two posts, but the order is flipped. I ran the “recalculate position of each reply in each topic” tool, but it didn’t seem to help. I have about 50,000 posts in my forum, does this need to be run multiple times? I worry about doing so because of the overhead.
For additional background, this was a drupal 7 forum that was imported over to bbpress 2 weeks ago, but the affected replies are from both before and after the import.
Using the latest versions of both wordpress and bbpress.

hmmm… that’s not happening on my test site – let me think
Thanks Robin, I did search and replace tutor > Naturopath and pasted the code at the end of functions.php. I would love to say it worked but…
Naturopath appeared as a forum role selection in the dropdown for each WP User. However when Naturopath was selected for the user and then saved, WP only displayed Role = “No role for this user”, and Capabilities = bbp_Naturopath.
When I tried a test post as that user, BBPress described me as a participant.
So, not there yet, but your help is appreciated 🙂
Linda
(PS: I’m looking for the Naturopath role to have the same capabilities as Participant.)
Hi @ajtruckle! I just installed your plugin and while it added the fullscreen capability to the editor and warns you if you are going to leave the page after starting to reply, it doesn’t actually autosave after a specific time interval. Is it supposed to do that?
I’m using the latest versions of bbpress, buddypress, advanced tinymce, bbp style pack, and buddypress members only.

After I Install and activate bbPress nothing shows up in my admin area sidebar (Forum, Topics, Replies do not appear). When I create a new page and paste there a shortcode for displaying the whole forum index, the page shows an error. I don’t know what went wrong, I tested on my localhost and it worked fine.
I also tried to delete the plugin and install it again.
