where can I download the latest Release Candidate 4?
thanks

[Robin W]

ok, not quite sure what is happening

1. are you using caching software? If so purge
2. try dashboard>settings>permalinks and just click save – this will reset the links

if both those fail, then it could be a theme or plugin issue

Plugins

Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

I installed bbpress in my site and followed instructions to create a new forum page from the main menu on my front page. Then I followed a tutorial to drop the log-in, register, and lost password widgets on my main sidebar that appears on every page, including the forum page. The problem I’m having is that when I test the registration from another computer, WordPress tells me that it cannot register new users? Did I do something wrong, or is it a temporary problem on WP end? I would assume I set something up wrong.

Thanks.

Hi,

My GD bbPress Toolbox Pro plugin has users online status tracking feature, enhanced statistics block for forum front end, enhanced statistics widget (and a lot of other features):

Thank you @robin-w, sad that BBpress does not offer it of origin…

Thank you @pinkishhue, but this plugin tested up to : WordPress 4.0.18
now the wordpress version is 4.8…

[ncrocketry]

I’ve disabled all of the un-related plugins, still same behavior.

All of my plugins are at the latest version, running the latest version of wordpress as of July 1, 2017.

Plugins that are active:
bbPress Version 2.5.12
bbPress Messages Version 2.0.7

Currently disabled:
gd bbPress Version 2.4

@lalitavalon I haven’t tested it but you could try the ‘display posts shortcode’ plugin, set the post type to replies and the category to the forum ID? Not sure if that would work exactly but worth a try.

Display Posts Shortcode

[Robin W]

the code only shows 50

put this in your functions file (untested, but should work)

add_filter ('bbp_before_has_forums_parse_arguments', 'rew_show_all' ) :

function rew_show_all ($args) {
	$args['posts_per_page'] = -1 ;
return $args ;

}

I found a bug with bbPress RC3 and BuddyPress. Tested with a fresh install using WordPress 4.8, and with only bbPress 2.6 RC3 and BuddyPress 2.8.2 activated. On the activity page the drop down box has duplicates. I’m running PHP 7.0.

Just lost and regained forums on one of my sites. Host support wrote:

We had upgraded php to 7.1 earlier this week. It appears that BBPress may not currently be compatible with the latest PHP. We have rolled back to PHP 5.6 and the forums are working again. However, to make sure that all sites are working on the suggested standards set by the WordPress core team, we will be upgrading all instances to PHP 7.1 within the next two months. It is possible that BBPress may make updates improving the compatibility in that time, but it is never a bad idea to be proactive on that front.

So what’s the deal with BBPRess PHP version compatibility please?

Hello,

I’m trying to make a link to a latest topic in forum page. I achieved topic name by bbp_forum_last_topic_title function, but can’t figure out how to get a link for latest topic.

I’ve tried to pull out something like this, but it links to forum index.
<p><a href="<?php echo $link; ?>"><?php bbp_forum_last_topic_title(); ?></a></p>

Widget issue in bbpress ( Version 2.6-rc-3 )

I have setup “Maximum topics to show: 3” on Recent topics, Recent replies
http://prntscr.com/fofhyb
But it doesn’t really work. it seems to display all.
http://prntscr.com/foffbz

I have just switched to v2.5.12 and tested. It works fine.
http://prntscr.com/fofj3j

I am not sure if it’s already reported or I have missed something.

BTW, Thank you for all of your work. I am so excited to use 2.6!
Can you please tell me when it should be released? maybe in a week?

Cheers!!

Hello,
i must edit the template from my last topics overview. Later it`s must show like:
Result

But now its look like: Now

I have add the bbpress.css to my theme and have chance some thinks (you can see, I have delete the counts, etc.). But I must add the big profile image (now I have only a very small picture who pixelated when I chance the size). Additionally I want to add the date and the time when the post are written and the first line of the content.
–> I think for this i must edit the template files.

Have you any idea which template file i must edit (I have tested some but without any result)?

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

Using latest BBpress, Buddypress and WP, and tested on a fresh install with WP default theme.

When viewing a member profile at http://localhost/mysitename/members/testuser/forums/replies/ there is no ‘in reply to:’ and link to the topic in the header of each reply. Just the date.

I thought perhaps it was theme related (I was using a child theme of the ‘Make’ theme) so have tested on fresh everthing, and it’s still happening.

I’ve created a new topic from the front end and the back end to see if that was related. I’ve used the forum tools to recalculate everything, I’ve ‘reset’ all forums and started again, still not there.

Can anyone else recreate this? Any suggestions? Am I misunderstanding something? Thanks

Wow am I so brain dead that I created that users end point on my own branch of your version 1.0.2 and don’t even remember? (just read previous posts and yes, apparently I did!) All I’m getting from that service is name and avatar, but that was because those were not in the latest topics or replies. If both of those had author name and avatar, I might have no need for a users endpoint unless one wanted to list posts or replies by user.

I’m very close to releasing a read-only version of my app. A day or two likely.

I just joined the WP slack but that’s way too busy and focused on wp core. I think a separate channel for bbPress or the api would be good.

You may want to try the latest 2.6 release candidate instead.

I’ve been successfully running BP and the forum plugin for several years now.
I did not add any new plugins but of course have been installing updates as they come up.
Sometime in the past month I lost the ability to create a new topic on my forum. The forums are not super busy but I post a monthly contest thread so I know it worked fine a month ago.

No error is generated, the page just reloads. I’ve tried clearing my browser cache in Chrome. I tried using Edge. I went to an entirely different computer from which I’ve never access the site and tried from there using IE. Same result.

I’ve switched to default theme 2015 and I am able to post but I can’t go back and edit or update the post. I also can not reply to the post using the 2015 theme. I am attempting to contact the theme creator for support but there is still some issue with the default theme so I’m asking here too.

Another user was able to post a reply finally but I can’t edit my original post. This seems to affect users at random off and on and then resolves itself but I have no idea what is happening.

Is there some place I can see what plugins were last updated so I can try disabling them?

I’m on my own domain, multi site install.
Apache Version 2.2.31
PHP Version 5.4.45
MySQL Version 10.1.22-MariaDB-cll-lve
bbPress 2.5.12-6148
Wordpress 4.8

Ok @mapofemergence it took me a bit to figure out how to fork on github (I use bitbucket normally). Here’s my fork which currently contains the addition of user name, user avatar, and forum name in the topics end point. This results in a huge speed increase over having to hit the forum api and user api while looping through the topics. So I’ve reduced the api calls from 20 down to 1 for a feed of the 10 latest topics!

Here’s the latest topics now that I’ve added reply count:

This problem suddenly arose recently. Eventually tracked it down to the PHP version I was using. I had php 7.1.3 was was designated as ‘Leading (edge)’. Went back to 5.6.30 which was designated as ‘Stable’ and all is well on 3 sites.

May be coincidence but it occurred only after the latest WordPress reelase.
