Site in dev mode-

Mulitsite install with sub directory
Wordpress 3.5
Buddypress-1.6.4
bbPress – 2.2.4

Buddy Press was originally not network activated – but is now after reading some threads of issues..

Can see and access most of the forum data once a member except when clicking on the the thread – it throws this error

Fatal error: Call to undefined function bb_get_id_from_slug() in /home/content/g/l/c/glca1/html/cagwp/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-forums/bp-forums-functions.php on line 178

Ideas or help?

Thanks

I am also getting this error, any help would be great.

the error appears in the title of the page for me and throws up a blank white page

Fatal error: Call to undefined function bb_get_id_from_slug() in /home/dtrboss/public_html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-forums/bp-forums-functions.php on line 178

It happens for me when creating a topic in the group forums. I started getting this error after following Set Up Group and Sitewide Forums on this page https://codex.buddypress.org/user/setting-up-a-new-installation/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums/#b-set-up-group-and-sitewide-forums

Ok I think I may have found a solution. Uninstall all forums installs and delete all groups then follow this old guide here

https://codex.buddypress.org/legacy/installing-group-and-sitewide-forums-v1-5/3/

It’s for an older version but it worked ok for me with bbpress Version 2.2.4 and buddypress Version 1.6.5

Once done with the guide created a new group with the group creation wizard and after it is finished go into admin>forums on the group page and save the settings enabling forums again as apparently there is a bug that sometimes doesn’t enable the forums but doing this fixes it.

I hope it works for you as it has worked for me.

I have a similar problem.
Last vanilla WP / BuddyPress / bbPress.
Hostgator is a repository of the problem.
