The edit option seems to be gone…
I tested it in Firefox and Explorer and both do the same thing. In Chrome it did not. I doubt I can tell all my users to use only Chrome…
I tried the migration both with their handling it and with my own WP Migrate DB Pro plugin. Both produced the same results.
I did find a ton of Akismet data bloating my database because of the saved copy of what was sent to Akismet (horrible design there). But I believe even cleaning up that 1 or 2 GB of bloat didn’t fix things.
I’m no longer paying for Flywheel, but I do still have the ability to create a free private test site.
Anybody have any ideas?
I am having the same problem (sounds like). My admin account post look fine, but I made a test account and typed “is this mic on” in the Test Forum. What I got was this:
Is this mic on?

Testing…
(@pdidee asked about this on a slack channel, thought I would leave my solution here)
HTTP Post is basically the same thing as a form submission. Consider this example from the infusionsoft link you sent:
That is basically like having a form that is submitted to your website at the URL you choose, with the field names (left) and values (right).
Here is an example of what you should send from Infusionsoft:
contactId = ~Contact.Id~
access_key = [your access key]
bbp_action = set_role
bbp_role = cadet
When your website gets that data, nothing happens. BBPress and WordPress do not know what to do with that data you came up with. You have to make that data do something.
Here is an example that will handle that URL. It is not tested:
https://gist.github.com/RadGH/38473c6ebcda730cedadd49de1ad0348
You need to change the value of “$internal_access_key” to match your access key.
You will probably also need to change the meta key used in the WP_User_Query which I set as “infusionsoft_contact_id”. I’m guessing infusionsoft does store that data on your users, but may be under a different key. Check the infusionsoft plugin documentation and hopefully you can find it there.
OK, and are you in a position to take those testing steps a little further and deactivate everything except bbPress (and also switch to a default theme)?
If you can do that, and things work, we then know the problem lies in one of your other plugins or with your theme and by reactivating them and testing you can probably figure out which one is the problem.
You could even do this ‘in reverse’ if you want to avoid disruption on your live site. This service has a funny name, but poopy.life is really useful for this sort of thing. Start with a brand new WordPress install (it’s free, though it will only stay alive for 24hrs) and add bbPress but nothing else. Confirm it works as expected, and then start adding everything else that you have on your live site: see if you can figure out what exactly introduces the problem.
there is a problem in the new forum post. Akismet, wp fastest cache, iThemes Security active. The same problem persists when I have disabled the Akismet plugin. Theme name sahifa
I’m using the latest version of bbpress and wordpress. theme
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 style pack and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Running the latest version of WordPress and BBPress, (have Buddypress loaded, but I deactivated it, just so I can focus on learning BBPress right now). Been rolling it around in my head what is the best way to create a Business Directory on my site. Thought maybe I could do this through BBPress somehow, but after spending hours last night going down rabbit holes on the forum, (they were great knowledge, just too much time involved), I figured just ask 😳🙈😅🤪. I am trying to come as close as I can to mimicking https://www.ncfarmfresh.com/farms.asp . I do not have enough experience, (YET), to know what they are using to do this. I like https://businessdirectoryplugin.com/business-directory/ , but, I have great concern getting locked into expensive updates. I read a seven year old post in this forum, suggesting to someone else asking the same question, that they use custom Post Categories. I thought long and hard on that, but I don’t see where it would work like I am needing. Any solid suggestions?
Hmm, it’s possible there is some sort of conflict happening.
It occasionally happens, for instance, that other plugins (or even your theme) generate additional admin menu entries at exactly the same position used by another plugin (in this case, bbPress). In such a case, one will ‘win’ and the other will not be visible. I don’t know that that is what is happening here, but it’s an example of the sort of conflict that is possible.
Do you have a staging or testing site where you can deactivate all other plugins (except for bbPress) and switch to a default theme—do the admin menu items show up then?
Alternatively, you could make use of the (humorously-named, but useful) poopy.life service to generate a brand new WordPress sandbox. It only stays alive for 24hrs, but that would possibly be enough time to see if you can install bbPress and use it successfully in a ‘clean’ environment. If you can, that would again indicate there is some kind of conflict on your live site.
You could even troubleshoot ‘in reverse’ via this sandbox site, by incrementally adding your theme and other plugins and checking to see if any introduce this particular problem.
Using 2.6-rc-7 (and testing against Twenty Seventeen) I don’t seem to experience the same problem: if I locate a copy of that same stylesheet within:
themes/twentyseventeen/css/bbpress.css
It is loaded as expected, instead of the default version.
Forgot to mention, i installed SiteHealth Plugin to see if that would work and its email passed the test. ie, i recieve the test emails.just not the live ones. thanks
“This plugin hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress”
(And it was last updated four years ago)
This seems to be the story with a bunch of “like button” plugins. I wonder why?

Hello,
I have a legacy version of BBPress (0.9.0.2). I was going to migrate to the WordPress version, but that seems difficult plus mine isn’t a WordPress website.
I’d like to ask for your advice: is it safe, security wise to keep this old version of BBPress? What could happen? I have activated several plugins, including the Human Test to keep a tight control over new posts.
I’m also looking into deactivating new registrations/topics and keeping it online as an archive.
Security is my main concern.
Thank you.

Hi all: after further testing, this only happened because it was a staging site, i.e. WP was installed in an unusual subfolder. Now that is no longer staging, works correctly.
Hi,
I really like bbpress, but i’ve been having a problem on my website. I’ve downloaded the plugin, activated it. Created forum, register, and lost password pages. Checked “Anyone can register” in settings. Yet, when I try to to register with username and email address in Incognito mode to test it out. after clicking the final “register” button the page just acts as if it refreshed. and no verification is sent to my email address.
Somebody help..
Hmm…well, I don’t think it’s anything nefarious.
WordPress is testing to see if any URLs inside those posts point to content that can be embedded and—though in your case I’m guessing that mostly is not the case, because it sounds like the result is mostly {{unknown}}—it then caches the result of its tests for better efficiency.
If you don’t need or want this, you can disable it. I haven’t needed to do this and so have not tried any of the following guides myself, but perhaps they’ll be useful to you:
Why would the short code for latest topics display the topics for some users but not for others?
Non-logged in users and subscriber/participant levels cannot see the Topics on the page where the shortcode is used – yet they can see everything fine when they go the actual Forums.
But I as admin can see the Topics fine when I visit the page where the shortcode is used.
WordPress 5.1.1
bbPress 2.5.14
I use a widget on my bbpress forum site for recent topis. It’s the standard bbpress widget. Before the topic title are 7 speech bubbles. I don’t know if it’s always seven, but it doesn’t look good and it has no real use. Can I change this to a emoji symbol, like fire, and maybe the number of replies to it? How can I find the right code?
Hello bbPress team and users
I am currently setting up my first bbpress forum. I am using buddypress and gamipress (didnt set it up so far) too.
I use a widget on my bbpress forum site for recent topis. It’s the standard bbpress widget. Before the topic title are 7 speech bubbles. I don’t know if it’s always seven, but it doesn’t look good and it has no real use. Can I change this to a emoji symbol, like fire, and maybe the number of replies to it? How can I find the right code?
Another question somebody could maybe anwser. Can I show gamipress ranks and points below the avatar in postings or other informations from buddypress profiles, or any bbpress related informations?
Thank you in advance and have a nice day to the whole in community!
Installed bbPress (2.7RC) to test and I like the improved dashboard for information but still having the import issue – though now I’m informed that it reaches step 6:
Step 6. No forum subscriptions to import
and just doesn’t move past that point. As a note there are no other plugins activated at all in my wordpress install – this is brand new and i’m starting out with the bbPress plugin since it’s the largest potential issue.
I created a site using buddypress. The shortcodes like [bbp-login], [bbp-register], [bbp-lost-pass] not working. It just shows the shortcode. I tested it with the theme Twenty Seventeen and NO other plugin installed. WordPress 5.1.1, PHP 7.3 (tested also with 5.6 and 7.2), and Buddypress 4.2.0.
You can see it here: https://bbpress.at-creation.ch/login/
Thanks for your help.
