  • Keywords has-patch added; needs-patch removed
  • Milestone changed from Awaiting Review to 2.6

Attached patch should fix things up.

One thing that stood out. The bbp_get_topic|reply_status functions were returning a publish status when the topic/reply id was 0. This is because when using theme compat, we're setting a dummy post with a post id of 0 and a status of publish. So, a get_post_status() check on an empty topic/reply id is returning as publish and making bbPress sad.

I'm wondering if we should be more deliberate of using the default of -9999 for the dummy post id to avoid conflicts elsewhere.

  • Component changed from Component - Replies to General - Performance
  • Keywords 2nd-opinion added
  • Milestone changed from 2.6 to 2.7
  • Version set to 2.0

A few thoughts, then I'm going to punt this to 2.7 to clear out the 2.6 milestone:

  • There are actually _many_ more functions that exhibit this type of behavior
  • All template functions assume you're using them within the appropriate context
  • Calling template functions out of context will yield inconsistent results
  • Also see bbp_open_forum() for another example, where an empty $forum_id doesn't bail early

If we want to continue, I think there is more to do, and I recommend we repurpose this ticket to reflect that.

I'm also moving this to to the "General - Performance" component, since a global bail-early for empty IDs is likely to bypass a bunch of processing across the board.

Note: See TracTickets for help on using tickets.
