I am very sure! Easy to test too. Started Firefox and initiated a private browser. Navigated to my site (where no user is logged in), clicked on the forum (where I have 1 pubic forum with FAQ info) and the stats show.
Ok everyone I have searched and tried everything I have found but it all seems to be for subforums.
My problem: I have categories set up and then my forums are sub forums under that.
I have one forum that I have sub-subs under. These show as a list like forum1,forum2, forum3…
I would like the sub-subs to display like
forum1
forum2
forum3
I have the latest version of bbpress and haven’t found anything in there. I have also tried the plugins that others have suggested and they were no help either.

You can see how my forum is set up in the pic. The big list I would much rather have look like the rest of the forum but just be indented some.
Thanks for reading!

WP 5.3.2
BBpress 2.6.4
Buddypress 5.1.2 (with private forums)
Hi,
When entering a registered user name via [bbp-search], messages from this user are shown eventhough they are in a private forum and the requesting user is NOT a member of that group.
This clearly violates the privacy and should not be happening.
I have removed all occurences of [bbp-search] , and with that lost the ability to search through the forums.
To test
– create 2 users (eg user-1, user-2)
– Make user-1 member of a private forum (forum-1) and create a topic and some replies.
– Make user-2 member of anothher private forum (forum-2) and create a topic and some replies.
– create a testpage with content [bbp-search], publish
– login with user-1
– got to testpage and search for user_2
No messages should show up, but i’m afraid they will.
Could anyone please try and get back here to share the result?
no idea why it isn’t working for you on the back end – works fine on my test site
if you have subscriptions set in
dashboard>settings>forums
then this should show.
it could be a theme or plugin issue
Themes
As a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, 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.
Then come back
I suspect that another plugin or your theme is causing this.

We are hosted on Kinsta and are considering testing Redis for object caching to improve bbPress performance.
Questions:
1. Any particular advice on specific recommendations for configuration?
2. Anyone else use Redis and see improvements? How did you measure those improvements?
Caveat: * we are also a membership-based site (MemberMouse) and forum posting is a privilege of certain membership levels.
I have the latest WP version and bbPress version installed as vell.
Now I faced a challenge, since we have several organisations on our site and each of them have their own discussion forums.
When forum moderator wants to edit forum thread, the moderator is able to see other forums and even move topics to other organization forum.
Now comes the question:
Are there any ways how to hide site forums existence and prevent moving threads to other forums?
Thank you in advance!

Hi,
I’m currently testing bbPress (with the default plugin templates/themes) and have noticed that a number of inputs do not have labels associated with them. I run a number of sites that require we meet a standard of WCAG 2.1 AA.
Is this something that is likely to be amended in upcoming versions?
And does anyone have any advice regarding making bbPress compliant?
Thanks
Laura
@suranodsk yes, we’ve been through quite a lot of analysis.
The primary issue is that the new post select and post write queries are taking about 3x longer on 2.6 than on the latest previous version of 2.5.x, and we’re trying to figure out why.
We’ve run extensive new relic tests and it has isolated the specific queries as the culprit. Otherwise, there’s no other issues with our host or our site that is causing the slow query times.
So, there’s something in the new 2.6.x bbpress query engine that seems to be less efficient for large databases than in the 2.5.x query engine.
Sure, we can toss a bunch of server resources, PHP workers, and REDIS at it, but that doesn’t really fit into the bbpress “light and simple” ethos. Lots of performance improvements promised, but when the rubber met the road…
We’d rather figure out what’s going on structurally with bbPress 2.6 vs. 2.5 than just give up and downgrade to 2.5.
I’m never quite sure if I should add to a post that has the same problem, but is obviously unanswered for a long while, or post a new topic. But… our forum also has a very similar issue so it seems sensible to add it here.
For us, it seems to be specific to text-align (left, right or centre) and for “non-admin” logged in users.
It displays the html code as is, rather than using it to display the correct text alignment. All other html options in the visual editor we’ve tested so far seem to work – it’s just the text alignment that doesn’t. And only for non-admin users – the html works as it should if an admin user posts.
<p style=”text-align: right;”>right align</p>
Hoping for a solution? Am on current versions of bbpress, wordpress and bbp style pack and php version 7.3
All I can say for now is that version 2.5.14 definitely does work, and the (latest) version 2.6.4 definitely does not. I haven’t yet had a chance to test the versions in between to be able to say for sure in which version this issue originally occurred.

@robin-w OK well… I’m pretty sure it’s arising from the file located in bbpress/includes/extend/buddypress/notifications.php where there is a function called function bbp_format_buddypress_notifications() which creates a link (which when clicked, automatically marks that particular notification as “read”).
From the quick test I’ve just run, it would appear that the link/string created in more recent versions of bbPress may not be correct but I’ll need to do some more investigation to work out how/why.
As far as I can tell, this is likely to be an issue for all Buddypress/bbPress users so I’m quite surprised it hasn’t been highlighted sooner.
no, that probably wasn’t the problem, if you had been on version 5.x then that might be the issue.
If php version doesn’t fix then it could be a theme or plugin issue

According to the trac it states:
Add bbp-has-subforums if forum has subforums
Why am I not seeing this class present in the latest version of bbPress 2.6.4?
@hydrogriff – ok, not sure that I ma goung to be able to help much further.
I can only suggest it could be a theme or plugin issue

Hi
In the past, I had the same question, but I didn’t try to find a solution yet.
I’ll try to continue this thread.
It’s about the page title for the opening page or index page of the forum, shown in the browser’s title bar. For the topic starter, that title starts with:
Archiwum Fora
It’s Polish for “archive forums”.
For my site, it’s in Dutch:
Archief forums
It’s Dutch for “archive forums”.
It’s the title of the index page of the forum shown by the browser.
For forums themselves, the browser shows the title of the forum as text in the browser’s title bar. So that’s going well.
As the forum opening page or index page is live and active, it’s expected to not to see “archive” as title in the browser.
On my setup, I tried the suggestion of mclegend.
Administration -> You mean the WordPress Back-End with all the configuration settings?
For ‘Configuration’, I don’t see ‘Server Settings’, only ‘Settings’ and indeed ‘General’, which points to basic WordPress options / item “Forum Title” is not there.
There is however a ‘Settings’ with ‘Forums’, and I see forum-related options. eg. Forum root and below the title ‘Single Forum Slugs’, there is ‘forum’, which could be a title, but not labeled that way.
The setting or word ‘archive’ or Dutch translated variant is on those pages not mentioned.
I suppose the Dutch (or for topic starter, Polish version) is by using translation file(s) and localized version of the WordPress.
But it’s not about the translation, it’s about the original ‘archive’ in the title.
So, question remains:
How to get rid of the word ‘archive’ in the browser’s title bar for the opening page or index page of the forum, and/or where can we set a title manually?
Current setup: PHP 7.3.12 / WordPress 5.3.2 / bbPress 2.5.14 and seen on earlier versions of 2.5.x and on the later 2.6.x versions while testing.
Hi Robin,
this is awesome.
I just tested it and it works like a charm.
Thanks you
Matthias
untested, but try this
add_filter ('bbp_get_user_profile_link' , 'rew_get_user_name', 10 , 2) ;
function rew_get_user_name ($user_link, $user_id ) {
// Validate user id
$user_id = bbp_get_user_id( $user_id );
if ( empty( $user_id ) ) {
return false;
}
$user = get_userdata( $user_id );
$user_link = esc_html( $user->display_name ) ;
// Filter & return
return apply_filters( 'rew_get_user_name', $user_link, $user_id );
}
Put this in your child theme’s function file – or use

Testing has been performed for that bug, but it must be something more structural. We are still looking at where it’s coming from. But had already other important bugs fixed so we did not want to wait in bringing already 2.6.4
ok, as a TEST, can you try deactivating 1 & 2 (I wrote 3 so know it is not the problem!) and see if sub forums reappear ? You can re-enable immediately afterwards
