When I search using the bbPress search plugins (both of which do the same thing), my search results don’t include a hyperlink or info to any of the forum topics. It just includes the breadcrumb of the topic and says “viewing 0 posts”.

Here’s the link to the results: http://www.compusoftdevelopment.com/forum/?s=toolbar

You’ll notice of course that there are no actual posts showing up in the columns and rows below it. The only way to get to the topic is by clicking on the date it was posted where it says “1 week ago“. This is kind of an important feature, and I’ve deactivated my themes search.php file to isolate the issue and make sure it wasn’t my theme causing it.

Which search plugin are you using? Did you report the error int he .org support forum for those plugins?

I am using Search bbPress https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search-bbpress/. Initially, I didn’t post it on there because there is a total of 5 topics their entire shelf life with one resolution (resolved by the same user who created it). But I did just submit it there because I’m not entirely sure if it’s bbPress’s engine or the plugin.

I guess I’m trying to figure out if it’s a matter of how it’s finding the results, how it’s displaying the results, or how bbPress stores them. I assume it’s probably not bbPress itself at this point.

I’m not sure how the plugins are working so I can’t say.

There is a related ticket in trac for an improved search template page, see #1956.

I would suggest trying https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-search-widget/ as it is actively being developed.

netweb, that was the other widget I tried. I created a support topic on that one as well. Both widgets behave identically., which lead me to believe it could be a bbPress specific issue.

jared, thanks for the ticket reference. I hope they come out with something soon. Right now, I can’t figure out a workaround.
