Is it safe to remove all CRON jobs?

In general, yes. WordPress and most plugins will register the CRON jobs they need if they detect that job is not registered. There are, however, some plugins that register jobs on plugin activation, and they will not try to detect if the job is missing or not. But, most plugins will recreate missing jobs.

How can I see errors logged for attachments upload?

All files users attach to topics or replies are stored in the media library. But, before that, they are all checked to determine if they are allowed (size, format). During upload, various problems can occur to break the upload or corrupt the files. All these problems and errors will result in the file not being uploaded, but instead, an error entry is generated and saved and later displayed with the topic or reply or in a log.

All errors can be seen on the Errors Log panel in the Toolbox admin menu. This panel grid looks similar to the Attachments panel but shows errors for every upload problem. This can help you to debug problems with the upload process. But, with GD bbPress Toolbox Pro 3.3 and newer attachments process is improved to show validation before upload so that oversized files or files with the wrong file type are prevented from uploading, and this will result in fewer errors during upload and less errors displayed in the errors log.

To configure the logging process, open bbPress Toolbox -> Features -> Attachments. There you have an options group, ‘Errors Logging.’ This has several options. The first option is used to activate the logging process. If this is disabled, no errors will be logged! After that, you have options to control who can see the errors. This is related to displaying errors in the topic or replying to inform about the errors on the front end. Normal users or visitors can’t see these logs; they are reserved for administrators, moderators, and topic/reply authors, and in the settings group, you can enable or disable this.

What is Topic View in bbPress Forums?

Topic views are a very useful bbPress feature allowing you to list topics outside the forums based on different criteria or search parameters: activity, freshness… bbPress has few default views. bbPress also allows adding of new views. It is important to know that the bbPress implements Topic Views, and GD bbPress Toolbox Pro or GD bbPress Tools Free plugin can only register new views; they can’t do anything related to views.

Default bbPress topic views are:

  • Most popular topics: this will list topics by most replies.
  • Topics with no replies: this will list topics with no replies.

Views work on all topics, regardless of their forum, and the list displayed will contain only topics ordered by the view default criteria (they don’t have easy options to reorder topics or filter by the forum).
