Hi

We’ve got an issue after upgrading bbPress to 2.6.x:

The “latest reply” column on the forum index page isn’t showing the real latest reply. Instead, we see the latest reply as it was just before the upgrade to 2.6.x.
None of the replies after the update are displayed.
This happens only at the forum index, not on the sub forum index pages; the sub forum index page shows the right latest reply.

The options to repair/recalculate didn’t correct the information in the “latest reply” column.

We’ve seen this on 2.6.1 and 2.6.3.
We did a downgrade to 2.5.14 twice, once after 2.6.1 and once after 2.6.3, we did every time the repair/recalculate, and we’ve got the column working good again with the right and expected “latest reply”.

URL: http://www.lotgenotenseksueelgeweld.nl
Note: It’s in Dutch localized.

bbPress version now: 2.5.14
We have the forum index built by using the shortcode [bbp-forum-index] .
For the sub forums, we use the corresponding shortcode with the ID of the sub forum.
WordPress version 5.3.2.
PHP version 7.3.12.

Anyone else having this situation? How did you get it solved?
Or could this be a bug in the bbPress?

[Robin W]

ok, can anyone who still has this problem let me know if they are using bbp toolkit

If so as a test try deactivating this (you can reactivate after) to see if this fixes.

Please report back

untested but try

add_filter( 'bbp_get_reply_content', 'rew_reply_signature', 1, 2 );
add_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_content', 'rew_topic_signature', 1, 2 );

function rew_topic_signature ($content = '', $topic_id = 0) {
	$topic_id  = bbp_get_topic_id       ( $topic_id );
	$user_id   = bbp_get_topic_author_id( $topic_id );
	$separator = '<hr />' ;
	$before = '<div class="bbp-topic-signature">' ;
	$after = '</div>' ;
	if ($user_id == 3) $signature =  'signature for user 3' ;
	if ($user_id == 57) $signature 'signature for user 57' ;
	if ( !empty( $signature ) )
		$content = $content . $separator . $before . $signature . $after;
	return apply_filters( 'rew_topic_signature ', $content, $topic_id) ;
}

function rew_reply_signature ($content = '', $reply_id = 0) {
	$reply_id  = bbp_get_reply_id       ( $reply_id );
	$user_id   = bbp_get_reply_author_id( $reply_id );
	$separator = '<hr />' ;
	$before = '<div class="bbp-reply-signature">' ;
	$after = '</div>' ;
	if ($user_id == 3) $signature =  'signature for user 3' ;
	if ($user_id == 57) $signature 'signature for user 57' ;
	if ( !empty( $signature ) )
		$content = $content . $separator . $before . $signature . $after;
	return apply_filters( 'rew_reply_signature ', $content, $reply_id) ;
}

Put this in your child theme’s function file – or use

Hi!

When the forum sends out an email to members the email body contains   HTML code. Instead of adding a space between the two lines it ads   . The reply looks normal on the forum page and on the backend.

For example:

This is a test message.

 

This is a test message.
 

 

Topic Link:…….

Hi folks. I am trying to add the shortcode for a single forum [bbp-single-forum id=$id ]

However I cannot find the ‘forum id’ anywhere.

The bbpress install is new and I have only created one test forum. Nowhere is the ‘test forum id’ listed. I can only see a field for ‘order’ which is by default ‘0’. So I tried the forum id as 0 but nothing appears on the page, I have also tried the id as 1 as it is the only forum created.
Please note that the shortcode for showing ‘all forums’ work as expected on the page.

Any thoughts?
Thank you.

Working with WordPress Live support, we have been unable to solve the problem of subscribers to my forum receiving notifications when a new topic is posted (We haven’t yet moved on to testing for those who subscribe to a topic getting notification of any new posts under that topic).
WordPress Live received guidance from you that we should try a different theme (Twenty Twelve) and also try disabling all plugins except for bbPress and trying that. That did not work either.
So, we’re coming back to you for further guidance. Can you provide? Will I receive notification by email when there is a response to this request or do I need to keep checking the forum. My email is eric.brown@cbia.com.
Also, I’m working on WordPress version 5.3.2 and bbPress version 2.6.3
Thank you very much!

I have run all the tools and checked the cache.
At one point it appeared that the forum was reporting freshness based on the latest topic, not the latest reply.
But it is so all over the place, I am not sure that is the case anymore.

Here is a screen shot that shows a typical error.

Here is a link to the above forum:

https://www.thewargameswebsite.com/forums/forum/general-discussion-3/game-design/

The thing that baffles me, is that the freshness URL is correct.
So why is the bbpress forum itself not reflecting this?

https://www.thewargameswebsite.com/forums/view/topics-freshness/

Here is the site, please do have a look around in the various forums and you will see the freshness is a mess.

If anyone can help I will be very appreciative.

Back again. I swep whole testing site, delete database and reinstall everything including wordpress and forum loos OK now.
But on my production site which is running on Divi the problem still exist. So it will be really something on Divi´s end…

Hm, can anyone help, please? It´s going to be urgent now.

Here is the testing forum:

suggest if you haven’t updated or changed software that you contact your host provider

otherwise

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.

I have a fresh bbPress install and want to import everything possible from my phpBB version 3.2.4 installation. The import runs and step 8 is importing lots of anonymous topic authors.

However, why aren’t my users importing? Based on other posts I ensure no topics/threads are attributed to founders/moderators/admins. (I created a single founder account and downgraded everyone else).

I see some references to a 3rd party import script, and other references saying its not needed. Can someone help? It’s Jan 15 2020 and I have the latest bbPress. Note sure hot to proceed.

Excerpt from log:

6.No forum subscriptions to import
5.All forum parents imported100%
5.Calculating forum hierarchy (0 through 11 of 11)0%
4.All forums imported100%
4.Converting forums (0 through 16 of 16)0%
3.No passwords to clear
2.No users to import
1.Skipping sync-table clean-up

Hi,

I can confirm, that version 2.0 of OneSignal is the reason for the “link expired” problem…

Install “WP Rollback” plugin and roll back to latest 1.7 release…

Here’s a link to staging where we are testing it. https://staging-twinflamesuniverse.kinsta.cloud/forum/

sorry, this is way beyond any help that could be offered on a forum – this is the equivalent of saying ‘my car is making a funny noise’ – don’t take that the wrong way, just trying to explain 🙂 🙂

your screenshot shows one element of 200odd taking 6 seconds – would tend to suggest an issue with a particular reply in your database, maybe corrupt, maybe long, maybe calls to a slow external site.

You’d need to run that test against lots of variants of forum display to try and isolate the cause.

[danielsgirl]

We’re noticing slow load times on our forum. Our hosting provider ran a New Relic test and found that the “Walker” template seems to be rather slow. Is this a common issue? Is there a way to fix it?

Hi there,

I have a client who is using BuddyPress and bbPress, among other plugins to run a membership site. Recently they noticed an issue on user profiles, under the Forums tab where Forum Topics Started by that user are listed. The first page shows up fine, but attempting to click on Page 2, 3, or beyond gives a 404 error.

The site is using WP 5.3.2, BuddyPress 5.1.2, and bbPress 2.6.3 (all latest I believe). The site URL is https://www.themysticdreamacademy.com/

I have attempted resetting permalinks, disabling all other plugins and reverting to a standard theme, and none of this made a difference. I also dug up lots of forum and support threads which seemed to have similar issues, but it wasn’t the exact same and I couldn’t find a fix.

One odd thing I noticed is that the URL template for the main page is like this: https://www.themysticdreamacademy.com/members/%5BUSERNAME%5D/forums/

But when I click to the next page, it loses the /forums to become: https://www.themysticdreamacademy.com/members/%5BUSERNAME%5D/page/2/

I tried adding back in the /forums part but it still gives a 404. Not sure if this is relevant but I thought I should include.

Hoping someone can point me in the right direction for fixing this. If you need any other info, let me know. Or if this is more a question for BuddyPress, I can post there. But I figured since it involves forum posts it was more relevant here.

Thanks,
Rory

[Robin W]

probably because it is not a bug in version 6.x!!!

it will be theme or plugin related

Ok…limitedly tested, so please test further before going live. I have also added tooltips for those using this to easily identify the purpose of each image. Be advised, I am no developer…so you’re on your own. I can not confirm if this causes any security issues. I have been having issues creating this post due to

ERROR: Duplicate reply detected; it looks as though you’ve already said that.

Please disregard all previous attempts and keep this latest post!

1) Put the code at the bottom of your child theme’s functions.php file.
2) You will need to use your own icons or images.
3) All image titles are hard-coded, so either ensure all images are renamed or edit the snippet accordingly.

Good afternoon!
I’m reaching out because I’ve checked the settings many times and updated WordPress version and BBpress plugin to the latest version as well and I can’t figure out why this functonalites stopped working. I’m not a programmer I do handle html, css and some basic php.

I’m having an issue with BBpress not nesting replies anymore and also as an admin I’ve stop receiving the notify emails everytime somebody post a new comment.
I’ve updated WordPress to version 5.3.2, BBpress to version 2.6.3 and BBpress Notify (No Spam) to version 2.8.

I’ve cheked the php version my host company is using and is 7.2.7 (beyond what the plugins require).

Could anyone point me to a solution or reason why is this happening? I’ve also emptied my cache.
Sorry I don’t post a link to my website is a private learning group.

Thank you so much! Luciana

We are using bbPress Private Groups and have tied the groups to roles (we create the roles “Members” plugin). When testing a demo account with one of these assigned roles/groups, the private forum did not show up for them. Does anyone know how to get these to show up? We need certain users to have access to forums based on products/memberships they with us.
