bbPress.org

what additional bbpress related plugins are you running?

so just bbpress and learnpress?

Thanks

This is just a warning that WordPress 6.7 introduced.

bbpress in itself does not issue that warning, so I’d suspect that another plugin is affecting this.

so you need to test to see which other plugin or your theme is doing this.

I’d start with loco translate and LearnPress bbPress Integration as likely candidates.

If not you’ll need to work out which

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, 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.

If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

Health Check & Troubleshooting

Then come back

Same notice here, with v2.6.13. So I patched includes/extend/buddypress/loader.php

line 42 : esc_html__( 'Forums', 'bbpress' ),
to : function_exists('esc_html__') && did_action('init') ? esc_html__( 'Forums', 'bbpress' ) : 'Forums',

and line 119 : 'search_string' => esc_html__( 'Search Forums...', 'bbpress' ),
to : 'search_string' => did_action('init') ? esc_html__( 'Search Forums...', 'bbpress' ) : 'Search Forums...',

and it’s gone.

I had several similar notices from different plugins, and I suspect WPML to cause this issue. I can’t deavtivate it because last time I did it was a complete mess

I don’t have much time to go further this now, but I saw this topic so I guess Bbpress is not causing it.

it’s not really anyone’s ‘fault’ but bbpress would need to make the change to their code, so yes bbpress is ‘causing it’.

Thanks for the clarification @robin-w. I dont really understand anything about the WP translation scheme, or exactly when WP changed things so that these notices are shown (when I started seeing them doesnt seem to jibe with what I can find in the WP trac). Anyway, AFAICT this isnt in the bbpress trac (though there are similar things there). Should it be there?

Again, Im fairly confused about this. Im assuming that not everyone is seeing this, or there would be a lot more complaints about it. I dont know if thats because some special circumstances are necessary, or just because nobody has debugging turned on

yes – 99% of sites never turn debug on, so never see any warnings.

I just saw your message @mike80222

I said bbpress is not causing it. because Robin said that in this message : https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/php-notice-on-version-2-6-11/#post-243051

I have given up trying to find the source of the error tbh. I just deactivated debugging mode. It’s the best solution (for now), but it’s just annoying when you have to debug a problem and you have dozens of similar lines.

there are lots of causes that will show this error, many plugins load the bbpress text domain.

If you are running buddypress, then you can stop a bbpress file from causing the error by the fixes above, or by using :

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>bbPress bug fixes and go to

Fix bbPress domain triggered early if Buddypress also active
