BBpress – Buddypress – Permalinks – Group and Sitewide Forums
-
REPOSTING-
I hope someone can help, I feel like I have tried everything, I have changed every setting in every way I can think of, I have resaved permalinks with every change. Ran all the repair tools I could find.
We are running WP 4.0.1 – BP 2.1.1 – BBPress 2.5.4 – My wife and I have been playing with this website I believe since Buddypress was new, 2010?. So we been thru every version and have lots of stuff in the database that I dont even believe is used anymore.
All forums were originally created before BBPress when Buddypress made you create a group to start a forum, now I am trying to make some forums sitewide and make some part of groups like before. All of this seems like it was possible a year or so ago and a few versions ago, I have found a bunch of instructions to follow to no avail.
The problem right now is: with the setting “Allow BuddyPress Groups to have their own forums” unclicked – (I have made sure that enable_forum is 0 in the database for all groups).
Example slug at this point is: /forums/forum/online-resources
I create new category type forum “Group Discussions” and click “Allow BuddyPress Groups to have their own forums” pointing it to the new form.
The slug changes to: /groups/forum/
I have group forums clicked, if you visit: http://godstuff.ablurk.com/forums (dynamically created by BBPress?) and hover down the list of forum links you can see which ones have bad links and give 404s, some still work, ALL these forums were created back in BP 1 as group forums with no BBPress and yet they act differently now, some permalinks change and some don’t???? Some change to this /groups/share-music-videos/forum/ ???
I have http://godstuff.ablurk.com/forums/forum/online-resources hard linked in the sidebar features menu, when clicked and it redirects to /groups/forum/ and 404s.
Anyone?
