the latest activity widget in
bbp style pack
lets you do this
Thanks Robin. I did try it with no luck. I’ve completely reset my wp install and starting from scratch with bbpress as the first plugin. I will try data import again with a small test sample and try your plugin again.
I see what you mean now – and can replicate on my test site. I can’t say if this is as a result of 5.6 as my site os now at that, and I don’t have a test site at 5.5.x, but when I next generate one, I’ll look at it.
I’ve removed you site, can you remove me from your site please
The question is about the redirect folder, not for plugin. Moreover, This plugin hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases and the Author out of reach at support.
Is it possible to redirect any folder with pictures to standard admin library?
i dont know whats wrong, no error or anything, just lett it run for days or can someone explain what happening?
got everything new installd whit the latest of everything on a ubuntu server 20.04
We have been trying to build a mobile app. It requires an API to handle the following:
1. Create a new topic,
2. Reply to a topic,
3. Subscribe to the forum
4. Subscribe to a topic
5. Display the name of the user who created the topic
6. Display the name of the user who replied to the topic
7. Delete a topic he created
8. Delete the reply he created
9. Edit the topic he created
10.Edit the replies he made
We have been testing this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-api/
Not only was it old, it does not handle any function related to “write” functions. For example, we can pull out the bbPress info (Read), but we could not use this API to create topics or submit a reply.
With this limitation, it is hard to imagine people will stick with bbPress as mobile becomes more crucial.
Yes, we could create custom solutions using WP REST API, but this is not ideal for bbPress. And more important, we could not find the latest documentation.
Please address this gap or if there is already a recommended solution, help as many people know about it as possible.

ok, just tested and my original code works fine on my test site.
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

If that didn’t work for you then go to Divi > Theme Options > Builder > Advanced > Enable Classic Editor > Save Changes, this will resolve your issue positively. Enable the latest Divi builder experience as well to enjoy the new Divi builder on the backend.
just tried a shortcode in the footer of my test site running twentyten, and it works on both bbpress and non bbpress pages using the text widget
Alright so your question led me to test out different configurations and I managed to get the issue sorted.
Basically, I had the forum root set to “forums”, while also had my main forum page set under the “forums” permalink. This blocked redirection to all forums/page/number, so resetting my main page to the “forum” permalink now allowed redirection to work correctly.
Sorry for raising the issue in the first place, and I really appreciate your comments since they led me to realize what the issue was. Thank you again!
Oh and I forgot to mention that I did test it by deactivating plugins and changing theme. The issue persists, when the shortcode is used.
Is AJAX enabled for the buttons if the Subscribe and Favorite buttons are used within the Replies shortcode?
try
dashboard>settings>permalinks and just click save – that resets the permalinks
If that does not work, then it could be a theme or plugin issue

@winkelj first version of this that should work with gutenberg is here if you want to test :
so
1. Deactivate the existing bbpress topics for posts plugin (no need to delete it, just deactivate)
2. Go to this site http://www.rewweb.co.uk/download/bbpress-topics-for-posts-v2/ and download the new version
3. Go to dashboard>plugins>add new>upload plugin and upload the zipped file you downloaded in step 2
4. Activate and test.
sorry, there are 300,000 users of bbpress and you have found a couple of instances where users found an issue.
In one advice was to troubleshoot the problem, and the user never came back, in the other one user found that it was a wp mail plugin.
I appreciate that you ae frustrated, but ‘this same exact issue 5 and a half years ago? Is this issue still not fixed?’ is not going to endear you to the free support offered for this free product.
As a first instance, please do the troubleshooting :
it could be a theme or plugin issue

@robin-w,
I can help test with my test site when you’re ready.
@bodybyloud I’m most of the way through getting this going – can you test when I am ready?
and do you know the actual post type names you want to add – ie what they are called in the database ?
I have freshly installed bbpress and my >Dashboard>Settings>Discussion>”Comment Moderation”> is set to “Comment must be manually approved”. However when a test user with subscriber role submits a post, it appears instantly without requiring any approval.
What is the setting or settings that cause the plugin to require approval before a subscriber’s reply to a forum is published?
I don’t know it this helps and I did not test it with bbpress.
This plugin finds and deletes unused tags:
Mass Delete Unused Tags
it’s showing tags with 2 & 1 on my test site.
If you sure it is an issue, then unlikely but it could be a theme or plugin issue

On the fresh wordpress site without Elementor, I added Elementor and changed the page to an elementor page. In that case, Elementor didn’t strip out the tag.
On the built-up site I disabled all the plugins except Elementor and the tags still do not appear. So perhaps it is a certain setting in Elementor that is causing the problem …not sure. Obviously I can’t state with 100% certainty that Elementor is causing the problem but I’ve spent so much time with this that I cannot continue testing. I’ve decided to just go ahead with the workaround of manually inserting the tags when I create the Forum Description.
I would definitely avoid Elementor in the future on any site that I’m developing entirely on my own. I feel that for me it adds too much unnecessary complexity – opening the door to bugs that take too long to find.
ok, so I can only suggest you do some issue finding

UPDATE:
Robin, I just tested this on a fresh wordpress install (ie: without Elementor) and I see that the tag is there !!!
So this leads me to believe that Elementor must be stripping the tag.
I cannot give you a link to this install because it’s on my local workstation (with a LAMP install). The tag I’m seeing at the forum description is: bbp-forum-content
Okay, go to http://dialogtotransformation.net/forum-beyond-bw/
…and look only at the forum entitled TEST ENTRY
…the text below that forum was entered in the “new post” interface. note that there are no tags surrounding it.
Don’t look at the other forum descriptions. They were entered in the same way but I explicitly added tags myself …the tags were not added by bbpress.
ah, I see what you ae getting at – not sure how this site does it, but you can create a link to a page in your site and put
[bbp-topic-index] in that page – that will show the latest 15 topics
If you want better than that, then
bbp style pack
once activated go to
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>shortcode
and check out the
[bsp-display-topic-index] which has lots of settings you can use to control what is shown
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Custom CSS
I just installed the Ultimate Member plugin. The frontend login shortcode that comes with that plugin works as expected, so not sure what this issue is with the bbPress Login Widget, but something is certainly not right.
I totally get that many people should be complaining if it were obviously broken, but especially after testing a clean WP core and bbPress install it seems that this isn’t likely to be an edge case.
Again, let me know if you have any specific questions that I can help with to debug.
Thanks!
