 * As you can see, I even tried French as the site language just to rule that out

 * Only things I can suggest are:
 * **1.)** Try disabling EVERY plugin except for bbPress. Also disable the “Spice
   Software Dark” theme and enable a traditional default theme like[ twenty-twenty](https://wordpress.org/themes/twentytwenty/).
 * It should ABSOLUTELY work then.
 * If it still does not work, then there’s something not right with how you’re adding
   bbPress to the frontend of the site. In that case, I’d suggest:
 * **2.)** Not embedding the forum with the the bbp-forum-index and bbp-topic-index
   shortcodes. Instead, just use the default permalinks that bbPress uses by default.
   I didn’t see any specific need for you to use those shortcodes anyway. The default
   permalinks should be fine for your needs. You do not need to create pages for
 * It should ABSOLUTELY work then.
 * If it still does not work, then there’s something not right with your hosting
   server configuration. You may need to contact the hosting provider/server admin
   to look into it.

 * [@fabienmahot777](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fabienmahot777/) – got 
   a chance to look at it.
 * Both “subscribe” and “favorite” are not working.
 * If i right-click, “open in a new tab” they do work. But something is preventing
   them from reloading the page where they are displayed. It really does seem like
   a plugin or theme conflict.
 * I will try every plugin you listed to see if one of them breaks it on my test
   site, but my settings will not match yours so there’s no guarantee that I can
   replicate it.
 * I’m almost 100% sure it is a conflicting plugin or theme.
 * You can disable/delete that test user account before people start spamming your
   forum 😉

 * [@xpired](https://wordpress.org/support/users/xpired/) – I’ve been working on
   a HUGE update that changes quite a bit with the admin settings page. One of those
   things is to standardize all fields that have a URL/path as the input. It includes
   checks for path validity/accessibility, and can handle either absolute URL/path
   or relative URL/path from the site root. One of the main goals of the revision
   is to make the interface as user-friendly as possible. Issues like this certainly
   fit into that category.
 * Between work/life, and a recent family emergency that will be taking me out of
   state in a few days, it may be a few weeks until the update is ready. It’s such
   a large change, that we will be testing it against some BETA testers first before
   publishing it to the WP Plugin Directory. I’ll tag you when the time comes.

 * [@fabienmahot777](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fabienmahot777/) – I was
   not able to replicate the subscription button issue. Using the following shortcodes,
   subscribe/unsubscribe was working fine:
 * [bbp-forum-index]
   [bbp-single-forum id=##] (## was an actual forum ID)[bbp-topic-
   index][bbp-single-topic id=##] (## was an actual topic ID)
 * I tested against default WP twenty-x themes and against the “[Spice Software Dark](https://wordpress.org/themes/spice-software-dark/)”
   theme. Working fine in all cases.
 * One note is that with the shortcodes, the AJAX file is NOT loaded, so the page
   defaults to using the PHP functionality, which reloads the page to perform the
   actions. Not as elegant as no-page-reload AJAX, but it is functional.
 * It does not appear to be an issue with bbPress core. Working as expected.
 * Only things I can think of left to try to help you is:
 * **1.)** On the page where you’re having the issue, right-click and select “view
   source code”. Then within the source code hit “ctrl” and “f” keys at the same
   time to “find a string” and search for “engagements.js”.
 * If that file is not found, this simple code snippet could be added that would
   force-load it. It may fix your issue and should also enable AJAX functionality
   for subscriptions, favorites, and other bbPress actions when shortcodes are used:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       /*
       * Force-Load bbPress engagements.js script
       */
       function force_load_engagements_script() {
           wp_enqueue_script( 'bbpress-engagements-js', WP_PLUGIN_URL . '/bbpress/templates/default/js/engagements.js', array( 'jquery' ), ( function_exists( 'bbp_get_version' ) ? bbp_get_version() : get_bloginfo( 'version' ) ), false );
       }
       add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'force_load_engagements_script' );
       ```
   
 * ^ That should be added to your theme functions file [ONLY if you’ve setup a proper child theme](https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/advanced-topics/child-themes/)
   for “Spice Software Dark” so that it doesn’t get lost if there are any future
   updates for that theme. You could also add that code snippet with one of my favorite
   code plugins [Code Snippets](https://wordpress.org/plugins/code-snippets/). Or
   you could get slightly more involved and write your own plugin to hold all of
   your custom code snippets.
 * That code snippet above can be improved to target ONLY the bbPress pages you 
   need engagements.js enqueued for, but you need to know those specific page slugs.
   You could wrap the wp_enqueue_script() with an additional check for those specific
   page slugs like this:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       /*
       * Force-Load bbPress engagements.js script on specific pages
       */
       function force_load_engagements_script() {   
           if ( is_page( [ 'custom-forum-index-page', 'custom-topic-index-page' ] ) ) {
               wp_enqueue_script( ... ); // NOTE: '...' used to simplify example code and must be replaced with actual enqueue code!
           }
       }
       add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'force_load_engagements_script' );
       ```
   
 * ** 2.)** If you send me the URL to the page where the problem exists, I can inspect
   it myself. You can post the link here or email it to me at [codejp3@gmail.com](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codejp3/replies/page/19/codejp3@gmail.com?output_format=md).
   I would need an account on your site so that the subscribe/unsubscribe button
   shows for me. It can be a regular user account without admin access. I would 
   just inspect it, but not to do anything about it. Doing something about it would
   require admin access, and that’s not a good idea unless it’s a test/development
   site without anything important or any live users. Your site, your decision.
 * There’s something not right with your server/site environment that I can’t replicate
   on my test server. It will take some digging to find out the root issue.

 * [@fabienmahot777](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fabienmahot777/) – Thank
   you for your detailed reply! It helps a lot!
 * You’ve ruled out an issue with plugins, and with Style Pack itself. The issue
   seems to be with bbPress core, and it’s either a possible theme conflict or an
   issue with the shortcode embeds.
 * Does it work if you use a different theme? If so, then the theme needs some code
   changes to fix the issue. Probably not a theme issue, but still worth trying 
   to rule it out.
 * More than likely it’s an issue with the shortcode embeds. bbPress had issues 
   with that in previous versions, but I thought it was fixed in more recent versions.
   Perhaps not.
 * I’ll play around with the shortcodes to see if I can replicate the issue and 
   come up with a fix to submit to bbPress core, or to add as a new “bbPress bug
   fix” feature in Style Pack. Before even looking into it, my guess is that the
   AJAX file that handles subscribe/unsubscribe actions isn’t being enqueued when
   the shortcodes are used. I’ll let you know what I come up with.

 * [@fabienmahot777](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fabienmahot777/) – I’ve
   been playing around with forum and topic subscriptions, and they are working 
   fine in every scenario I’ve tried. But it did make me think of a few more possibilities/
   suggestions:
 * 1.) Have you tried disabling Style Pack and confirming that Subscribe/Unsubscribe
   is working with bbPress itself? This plugin uses the default bbPress functions
   for forum/topic subscriptions. The only changes made are wording for “Subscribe/
   Unsubscribe”, and maybe adding a CSS class for styling reasons. It does not change
   any functionality. If it’s not working with bbPress, it won’t work with Style
   Pack. If it is working with bbPress, it should also work with Style Pack.
 * 2.) Is your forum using any custom templates (specifically bbPress templates –
   wp-admin/options-general.php?page=bbpress > **Forum Theme Packages**)?
 * 3.) Is your forum using any shortcode embeds to embed the forum within pages?
 * 4.) Does your site theme offer any direct bbPress support/features/options?
 * 5.) Is your forum doing/using anything “non-typical” or custom?
 * If so, let me know so I can test against those conditions to try to replicate
   the issue you have.

 * [@fabienmahot777](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fabienmahot777/) –
 * I’d like to confirm that you do have JavaScript enabled in your browser since
   that button uses AJAX to handle subscribe/unsubscribe actions.
 * If you do have JavaScript enabled, then I suspect it’s a conflicting plugin. 
   Can you copy/paste the list of plugins on your site from the “Plugin Information”

 * I don’t want to let it go “unresolved”, but nothing jumps out as “wrong” within
   the code, neither myself or [@robin-w](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robin-w/)
   can replicate the issue, no one else is complaining about the issue, and even
   you say it’s fine with 2 local versions.
 * This may have just been a 1-time fluke. [@robin-w](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robin-w/)
   just pushed another update – 5.3.8. Pay close attention when you upgrade to that(
   and all future upgrades) to see if it works properly or if this issue happens
   again to you.
 * If it does, before clicking “save” to force a regeneration, take a look at the“
   Plugin Information” tab (options-general.php?page=bbp-style-pack&tab=plugin-info)
   and copy the values it shows for “**forums index styling**
   bsp_style_settings_f”.
 * That will help zero in on whether it’s an issue with the value being pulled from
   the DB before file generation, or an issue with the generated file.

 * [@clivesmith](https://wordpress.org/support/users/clivesmith/) –
 * You said the update “messed up your styling”. Correct me if I’m wrong, but that
   means all of your custom styling was not applied and the default bbPress styling
   was what you were seeing. Right? Or was it only fonts, like you specifically 
   mentioned, and if so, are they custom/external font files?
 * The reason I’m asking is because the Cloudflare issues we’ve seen have to do 
   with NEW settings not being applied and visible instantly when caching/CDNs are
   used. We modified the plugin so that everytime the files are regenerated, they
   get a new file version number. That SHOULD trigger all browsers and CDNs like
   Cloudflare to use the new file versions, and seems to have resolved that problem
   overall. This file versioning also happens every time the plugin is upgraded.
 * Several others use Cloudflare, but you’re the first to mention any new Cloudflare
   issues in the past 5 or 6 updates. Not convinced that it is a Cloudflare issue.
 * What you’re describing sounds like no files were generated, or something was 
   not right with the files generated. Even if Cloudflare were using the old cached
   file versions instead of the new file versions, it shouldn’t have messed with
   any styling and should have showed the forum according to the OLD styling file.
   I wonder if something wasn’t generated correctly, Cloudflare cached that, and
   then it took another file regeneration or two for Cloudflare to recache new good/
   working style files.
 * Can you clear up whether ALL custom styling was lost, or just fonts, and if so,
   what kind of fonts and font sources you’re using?
 * If it was just fonts and you’re using non-standard fonts, that’s one thing to
   look into. If ALL custom styling was lost, that’s a whole new thing to look into.
 * And as [@robin-w](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robin-w/) mentioned, if
   you do experience it again, jump on a device that has never been to your forum
   before and check it out there. That could help narrow down whether to include/
   exclude Cloudflare as a possible culprit.

 * [@wbuser2022](https://wordpress.org/support/users/wbuser2022/) – Got a chance
   to play around with Astra theme.
 * It is one of the very new FSE (full-site-editor) block themes that has already
   added internal integration with bbPress.
 * What that means is that you do NOT need to enable “Theme Support” for bbPress
   within Style Pack, since Astra theme has already done so.
 * The compatibility issue is because you DO have “Theme Support” enabled in wp-
   admin/options-general.php?page=bbp-style-pack&tab=bsp_block_theme and it is overwriting
   the fix that Astra theme has already implemented.
 * Disable that option in bbp Style Pack, and both bbPress & Style Pack will work
   fine with Astra theme. 😉
 * Marking as resolved, but will re-open this if you come back with any additional
   issues related to Astra theme.
