Group Forums: Edit Details: forum_desc not updating in bbpress forum table

[nuprn1]

Create a new group forum and forum_desc is inserted into the bbPress forum tables.

Edit the group detail description and nothing is updated on the bbPress side.

Expected behavior is to update both set of tables.

This issue goes beyond forum_desc - when you change a group name, there is no change in the forum_slug or forum_name in wp_bb_forums.

Hi JJJ,

could you please fix this issue in BP 1.2.5 as I am using the Plugin "BP Forums Extras" and this bug seems to be limiting the full use of that plugin.

Many thanks,

I've attached a rough patch. By default the slug is not updated, as it's not updated in the groups table either. Automatically changing the slug whenever you edit group details is bad for SEO, and for bookmarks. However, I did add a filter to allow you to edit the slug.

@nuprn1, @3sixty, @erich73
If this you need soon, the action hook 'groups_details_updated' would easily allow you to update everything you need.
