One at a time and retested and retested with both unplugged and it still wouldn't post a new topic from the "home" page of the forum.</p> <p>This still only appears to be an issue of posting from the home page? Is it possible that the "add new topic" link on the home page is tied to a forum that doesn't exist anymore?</p> <p>How does bbpress decide which forum to put a new topic into when it is started from the home page? Does it give you a drop down box to pick the forum?</p> <p>thanks. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/add-new-topic-broken#post-16981 Sat, 28 Jun 2008 02:01:54 +0000 chrishajer 16981@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>It would be a good idea to remove the plugins and retest.

I used two plugins "private forums" and "approved registration", which has also worked well.</p> <p>A couple posters pointed out to me an issue today? The "add new topic" link pulls up the form to add a topic... but when you "send post" it gives an error message:</p> <p>"This topics has been closed"</p> <p>The only way for users to add a new topic is to choose the forum they want to add it to and then scroll down and use the form on the forums page. It works and with the small number of users is ok... but hopefully the number of users grow, which it will become an issue.</p> <p>Can anyone point me in the direction of a fix?</p> <p>Here's the link to the bbpress on our site: <a href="http://www.ditschfitness.com/forum/" rel="nofollow">http://www.ditschfitness.com/forum/</a></p> <p>thanks </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/clicking-on-topics-takes-me-to-wp-home-page#post-16650 Sun, 08 Jun 2008 02:29:31 +0000 chrishajer 16650@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>You did not set up permalinks on your server, or the server does not support them.

I think it's this simple.

There is a privilege built-in for <code>bb_current_user_can( &#39;write_topics&#39; )</code> which means it is technically possible to control who can start topics by taking away that role privilege from the "member" role. </p> <p>In theory a small plugin should be able to do this - I'll take a look at how it might be done as an exercise in learning more about bbPress roles... </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/only-key-holders-add-topics#post-15075 Sun, 06 Apr 2008 02:47:21 +0000 SmileUK 15075@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>How can I make it so only key holders can add topics.<br /> Sorry I'm new to use these forums </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/filter-out-particular-forum-from-latest-discussion#post-13919 Mon, 18 Feb 2008 05:03:20 +0000 uwemekpenyong 13919@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Found the answer!<br /> <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/limit-forums-included-in-latest-discussions" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/limit-forums-included-in-latest-discussions</a> </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/filter-out-particular-forum-from-latest-discussion#post-13918 Mon, 18 Feb 2008 03:25:25 +0000 uwemekpenyong 13918@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Hello,</p> <p>Can someone help me with listing the latest topics but excluding one of the forums from the list?</p> <p>Thanks,</p> <p>uwem </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/is-there-a-way-to-close-forums#post-12103 Tue, 20 Nov 2007 00:47:32 +0000 livibetter 12103@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Check this post: <a href="http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/disable-posting-and-registration?replies=8" rel="nofollow">http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/disable-posting-and-registration?replies=8</a> </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/is-there-a-way-to-close-forums#post-12102 Mon, 19 Nov 2007 23:20:24 +0000 monickels 12102@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Is there a way to close the forums so that no comments, topics, or anything can be changed or posted, but everything can still be read? </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/forums-not-being-created#post-12039 Sun, 18 Nov 2007 00:13:24 +0000 JeffVoegtlin 12039@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>When I changed something in the config.php file to "false" from "slug" it fixed itself. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/forums-not-being-created#post-12023 Sat, 17 Nov 2007 02:38:54 +0000 JeffVoegtlin 12023@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>OK, that fits with what i'm seeing.
