    Hi Robin,

    Whilst playing around with the plugin I have found that if I enable the ” Remove ‘Private’ prefix” option the private does indeed disappear. However if I then disable that setting I get:

    Warning: Illegal string offset ‘activate_remove_private_prefix’ in /www/wp/wp-content/plugins/bbp-private-groups/includes/functions.php on line 140

    My setup is very default:
    Twenty Fourteen theme.
    bbP private groups 2.4
    bbPress 2.5.4

    Hi, and thanks for letting me know.

    I can’t immediately replicate this, I understand what you are doing setting wise, but can you tell me exactly when you see this error – eg when I click save, when I go into the forums list etc.

    Thanks

    I think I’ve worked out the issue and a solution, but can you test for me?

    Can you

    Go into site and deactivate and then delete bbp private groups – don’t worry you’ll not lose any settings
    Then go into https://www.rewweb.co.uk/bbp-private-groups/

    And download Beta version 2.5.1 and then activate

    The ONLY difference between this and your current version is the fix (hopefully) for your issue !

    Then can you test again and let me know if it works

    With private prefix removed you should not see it in the forums, but still see it in the calendar, and with it not ticked it should all work fine

    Let me know if this all works – if not come back

    Thanks Robin – I can confirm that that has fixed the issue. I’ll leave the beta installed for a while while I do some further testing…

    So I’m not sure if it existed before the beta ( I suspect it did) but I’m seeing an issue with forums that are marked private and assigned to a group.

    If a users is a member of a group which has a forum in the same group. That user can see the forum exists (now with or without private as required), however entering the forum shows:

    This forum contains 4 topics and 2 replies, and was last updated by Bat Man 34 minutes ago.

    Oh bother! No topics were found here!

    I probably should open a new topic if you would prefer.

    Glad problem 1 is fixed, I’ll release the version as a live version shortly.

    On your second issue – can you try that with ‘private groups’ plugin deactivated – we need to check that this is a Private groups issue, or your bbpress set-up, as I’ve seen issues before with just bbpress.

    Thanks

    I can’t seem to replicate the issue I was having. After changing the forum settings from private and removing from the group to public, I could see the topics as expected.

    Then I changed the forum back to private with a group and all is working! Strange.

    While I like that it has resolved itself, I hope it doesn’t come back…

    Thanks for all your help.
