Buddypress username autocomplete breaks when using TinyMCE.

[ajoyce2016]

When enabling TinyMCE in forum replies, the autocomplete with Budypress usernames breaks.

Enabled using this code block in functions.php:

function bbp_enable_visual_editor( $args = array() ) {
	$args['tinymce'] = true;
	$args['quicktags'] = false;
	$args['teeny'] = true; 
	$args['media_buttons'] = false; 
	return $args;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args', 'bbp_enable_visual_editor' );

Can you define breaks? Do you see any errors? Is it broken in group forums, or just in non-group forums?

[ajoyce2016]

It is broken in all forums. Don't see any errors, HTML is present but never gets brought to the front/used by a script. I'm guessing the functionality is built in to call to an HTML class name or something similar, that is not present in the TinyMCE editor code vs. the default editor.

Edit: Is it possible this is a buddypress issue and not a bbpress issue?

Spent some time looking into this. This was not something that was ever supported by bbPress. It's also not currently supported by BuddyPress, unless you're running trunk. The fix in ​#BuddyPress6972 will not be widely available until 2.6 is released.

@ajoyce2016 You can try testing with BP trunk, but since bbPress never supported this, and it's not officially supported, even with the fix, I'm closing this ticket. If you have any further questions please continue the conversation via your forum topic ​https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/buddypress-autocomplete-breaks-with-tinymce/. If something changes, we can reopen this ticket.
