which exact version of php7?
Same problem.
Site is running certified SSL and have had no issues with other plugins or wordpress itself.
Running PHP 7.1, latest version of bbPress
Problem exists in Firefox and Opera. Don’t use IE or Chrome.
Site is closed to public while in developement. Doesn’t seem to stop people accessing forum.
When clicking on Forums in Dashboard the url result is
https://mysimpleknitting.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=forum
Message on page is:
The mysimpleknitting.com page isn’t working
mysimpleknitting.com.com is currently unable to handle this request.
When I attempt to access forums from url directly:
When I type in https://mysimpleknitting.com/forums/
The result is the same error.
Clicking on Forums in the Settngs brings up the proper bbPress page.
Same problem on my page also using PHP 7.1 latest version of bbPress and SSL with valid certificate and also use forced SSL over cloudflare hope there will be a fix soon.
EDIT: Downgrading to PHP 7.0 will solve the problem for now, but anyway I hope PHP 7.1 support will be there soon.
7.1 will work with 2.5.13 when released
2.5.13 too late. Went with phpBB.
My php is 7.0.19 and bbPress produces blank page errors mentioned above.
sorry thought you went with phpbb ?
I installed phpBB and it worked fine, but I wanted something like the Ad Inserter plugin I’m using on WP and couldn’t find anything suitable.
phpBB is a good forum program with lots of good extensions. I’m hoping bbPress will ‘soon’ be updated to function properly with php 7.0.19 and 7.1.
In the meantime I’ve got to post another question elsewhere on how to cleanup the mysql database and get rid of the 7 forums I created using bbPress earlier – all forums named the same because none of them ever appeared as a forum in the listings or appeared anywhere except as a listing on my sidebar- so when I do try bbPress again I won’t endup with a mess of forums all named the same.
Installed bbPress Beta 2.6 Beta 2 and works fine on php 7.0.19. Whooohoooo!!!
This solved my error 500 to!
Mine is not working as well.
Suspect you are using php 7.1
so 3 fixes
1. downgrade to a lesser version of php
2. upgrade to bbpress 2.6beta-2
3. in bbpress 2.5.12 change line 1851 from
$meta_query = $posts_query->get( ‘meta_query’ );
to
$meta_query = $posts_query->get( ‘meta_query’, array() );
Since the next upgrade will fix that anyway, no issue in changing the bbpress file
best I can offer I’m afraid
