Trouble with back-end editing in bbPress

  • I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong when trying to get the block editor to show up for back-end editing in bbPress. I’ve created a new site, installed the latest versions of Blocks Everywhere, Gutenberg and bbPress on it and added the following to wp-config.php:

    define( 'BLOCKS_EVERYWHERE_COMMENTS', true );
define( 'BLOCKS_EVERYWHERE_BBPRESS', true );
define( 'BLOCKS_EVERYWHERE_ADMIN', true );
define( 'BLOCKS_EVERYWHERE_EMAIL', true );
define( 'BLOCKS_EVERYWHERE_BBPRESS_ADMIN', true );

    Everything works fine in the front-end, but the back-end is a no go. I hope you can shed some light on what I might be missing.

    What do you mean by the back end is a no go? What are you looking at and what is it not doing?

    Nothing changes in the back-end. I am presented with the classic TinyMCE insetead of the block editor when I try to edit forums, topics, or replies. After reading the plugin description and looking trough the code I figured that is not what should be happening.

    I’ve tried to do some debugging and it seems that in the enable_editor() function is_admin() returns false so the $area variable is not updated to ‘.wp-editor-area’ in ‘blocks-everywhere/classes/handlers/class-bbpress.php’ al line 104. I’m not sure if this is the cause or just a result of some other issue, but I’m wondering if I might have skipped some step in the setup?
