"Call to undefined function wp_cache_add_global_groups()"

I'm not trying to cache bbpress per se, I just want to cache my entire wp site that bbpress happens to be on.

Is there a better method than adding define( 'WP_CACHE', true ) and object-cache.php?

Anyway, I'll remove the links. This is what my post said:

Hey there! I just installed the bbPress plugin on a site I have been assigned to at work. Unfortunately, nothing is showing up at the index for the forum:

[link]

But when I link directly to a category, you can view what's under that category:

Got any ideas? Thanks in advance for your help!

Anyone know how to fix this!?

Nevermind, I panicked. Removed all themes except default and reset itself.

"Topic: This is a new topic."

I think I know the reason of adding this feature, but it looks pretty ugly in search results and when you share the topics on facebook.

Is there any way of removing them?

Version 2 of bbPress's theme compatibility is now in the 2.1 plugin branch of code for your perusal. This second iteration removes the need to add current_theme_support() to your theme, and totally automates the process.

If your child or parent theme contains the template files that bbPress looks for, bbPress will use them. If not, bbPress will fall back on it's default templates and styling. No more logic necessary.

Please test it. It's new code with a new approach, so I'd like to get some fresh eyes on things right away to avoid a long beta period like 2.0 had.

Cheers!

I have used the forum on a basic wordpress template and it works fine so I know the settings are correct but do I need to do something extra to get it working on WPzoom?

...am i missing something?

Thanks in advance

The styling must be in the a file somewhere yeah? So why not have some sort of file map or layout so people could get in and play with it a little at their own peril?

I'm running bbPress 2.1 (plugin) and put on my blog's sidebar an RSS parser from forum. Problem is: when it gets an answer, the label starts with "Anwser to: Topic title" — in my case, since my site is Portuguese written, "Responder a: Topic title".

I want to change this "Responder a:" for something shorter, like "Re:". Do you guys have any idea where I change this behavior?

[]'s!

Does anyone here know how to make this work for bbPress?

I did some googling, and found this plugin for WordPress

Any help would be great,

Thanks in advance.

I wonder if a topic can be assigned not just to a single forum, but to a multiple forum, just like WordPress posts can be assigned to multiple categories.

Imagine I have a question related to computers and medecine. Can I create a single topic under both forum categories computers and medecine ?

Thank you.

This question is not about bbPress but about this site. I have edited my profile but I don't see how can I change my picture (avatar). I tried on Internet Explorer and also on FireFox, but it looks like there isn't a field for doing this.

Thanks.

I want to run Buddypress with a forum and I as wondering if someone can clearly explain to me the following;

1. What is the difference between the build in buddypress forums and the bbpress plugin?

2. What is the best way to install it so that both plugins sync and work together properly? Is there a set order they should be installed in?

Many thanks

Keeping users, passwords, posts and discussions?

I´m not too skilled with databases, but it looks like I can export and import in MyPHP Admin in Cpanel. And if doing so, will I still be able to keep the data on that other existing database as well?

I´m really stuck in a pickle here because when I installed BBPress 1.02, everyone was saying "screw migration". And it simply didn´t work. So I had to install it on its own database.

Now if I want to convert to version 2, I need to have all the data on one common database.

if ( !is_user_logged_in() || ( is_multisite() && !current_user_can( 'manage_network_users' ) && bbp_is_user_home() && !apply_filters( 'enable_edit_any_user_configuration', true ) ) || !current_user_can( 'edit_user', bbp_get_displayed_user_id() ) ) {

The key portion of that being:
( is_multisite() && !current_user_can( 'manage_network_users' ) && bbp_is_user_home() && !apply_filters( 'enable_edit_any_user_configuration', true ) )

This appears to be written intending to disable the ability for site admins on a network to edit users. However the code here does not seam to do any tests for what the user id is and who's currently logged in.
This has the unwanted effect of removing the ability for a normal non-superadmin user to edit their own profile because this code activates when multisite is enabled and doesn't take the fact they are trying to edit their own profile into account.

But while I have your attention, allow me to share my perspectives as someone who has been using Opensource Bulletin Board software for many years, but is just starting off with bbPress.

It's great that bbPress can leverage WordPress's autoupdate function to update itself and its plugins. phpBB (http://www.phpbb.com/mods/automod/), SMF (http://docs.simplemachines.org/index.php?topic=93) etc. are still trying to figure it out...they have some rudimentary patches, but nothing as elegant as WordPress's system.

Another brilliant thing is the ability to use seo/pretty URLs/permalinks. Amazingly, at phpBB (http://area51.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=105&t=35616) they are fighting over whether this is even desirable!

But what's pure genius is the ability to use any WordPress theme! bbPress ships with a bbPress TwentyTen theme, and if your active WordPress theme does not have special support for bbPress, that is ok, because bbPress will use bbPress TwentyTen's styling to present the forums in your active theme. Genius! Pure genius!

Add to this the fact that because bbPress is a WordPress plugin, there are additional benefits such as: SSO with WP, ability to use WP plugins (like Use Google Libraries), extendability, lightness, etc.

It is a massive shock to me that the number of people are using bbPress is incredibly smaller than what it should be.

I've thought about my experience, and think that the following factors could be critical in this regard:

1. Discovery: Discovery is an issue. I don't know what the relationship is between Automattic/Wordpress/bbPress/BuddyPress, but I am sure you have considered putting bbpress.org link in wordpress.org's "See also:" footer and decided against it. But what I do struggle to understand is wy wordpress.org would not even permit you to put a credit line (Powered by bbPress) in wordpress.org forums. That is a bit harsh. To add insult to injury, if I search for forum on wordpress.org forums (http://wordpress.org/search/forum?forums=1), Mingle is at the top and Vanilla forums show up on page 1, but bbPress doesn't.

Google SERPs aren't much better. bbPress is not on 1st page for any of "forums script", "opensource forums script" and "php forums script". I'm sure that would change if you could convince wordpress.org to show you a little more love.

2. Freshness: Even if someone chances upon bbPress plugin on wordpress.org (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress/), there is little joy. The bubble is burst as soon as the explorer clicks on forum posts (http://wordpress.org/tags/bbpress?forum_id=10). There doesn't seem to be any support and users appear to be completely lost without a paddle.

Of course the main reason for that is that you handle most support here at bbpress.org but the poor visitor doesn't know that. He looks at wordpress.org forums for bbpress, concludes there is lack of support and goes away.

I think unifying support in one place (at wordpress.org forums), will be good for the community. You can have a clearcut, loudly stated division - bbpress WP plugin support at wordpress.org forums, legacy bbpress standalone support at bbpress.org

http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-bbpress-why-separate-forums

3. Migration: bbPress needs to face the fact that most people who want a forum, have already had a forum. The *new* market for forums is much smaller than the *installed base* of forums.

Consequently, most of the people who would want to use bbPress probably are already using another forum script and need help migrating. It is collossal mistake to leave this for community plugins.

If I have a forum software in a production environment, then one of the major factors influencing my decision regarding migration is whether or not there is a robust, stable, tried and tested and reliable migration path to the target software. This is extremely important for me. In fact, I would suffer a somewhat inferior software willingly rather than move to a better software if there is no clear migration path or there is a high degree of risk in migration.

It is a mistake on part of bbPress to leave migration to community plugin developers. Even if there were some plugins out there that did the job, it would be much less reassuring to prospective users compared to a migration/import path created by the bbPress team. As it happens there are only 2 import plugins (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/forumconverter/ and http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbconverter/) out there and both of them are broken and not supported.

WordPress does it right in building an importer directly into the core.

I think it would be greatly beneficial to the project if the bbPress team build a bbPress importer that supports the top 4 forum software: phpBB, Invision, SMF and vBulletin.

Over the next 18-24 months, I expect to see a mass exodus from phpBB as they rewrite the software from ground up (http://area51.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=75&t=41583). If bbPress provide a good migration path, it stands the chance to capture some of fleeing population.

4. I18n: 80%+ translations of bbPress are available in 13 languages, which is nothing to be scoffed at. But delivery is shambolic.

It is a nightmare trying to figure how to get bbPress working in a language other than English, even if you do the translation yourself.

There are 2 places to find translations: http://svn.automattic.com/bbpress-i18n/ and http://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/plugin

You can also use the .pot file found in /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-languages folder to create a translation, or you can translate at http://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/plugin with proper access.

It still doesn't work. Very frustrating.

As it turns out, what you need to do is go to http://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/plugin, download language file by exporting to .po file, use poedit to covert to .mo, and upload it to wp-content/languages/bbpress/ (not to /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-languages which has the .pot file or /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/languages as most other plugins would). And the name of the file should be somewhat like bbpress-de_DE.mo not the standard de_DE.mo

Who would be able to figure that out? There's not a single word about this in the documentation.

What a mess!

While some of the sharpest web developers comes from non-English-speaking countries, a high proportion of non-English-speakers are quite venturesome and decide to handle the technical aspects themselves as site owners, instead of farming them out to expensive developers, who are busy charging high rates for remote work.

These are the people that greatly appreciate the simplicity of WordPress. And these are the people who are a captive audience for bbPress, only if bbPress could make life a little bit easier for them.

bbPress should either be delivered in multiple language-specific packages like WordPress, or should be delivered with all translations included like most other plugins.

The .pot as well as language .po .mo files should be located in /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/languages

5. Documentation: This is another disaster area that is dragging a good software down. Documentation is just plain bad.

First of all, bbPress should clearly mention on the home page (http://bbpress.org/) and the download page (http://bbpress.org/download/) that while standalone version continues to be supported, it is not being actively developed.

Secondly, all the current documentation (http://bbpress.org/documentation/) is about the standalone version, and doesn't say anything helpful for plugin users. This should be reversed.

6. Lack of basic features: Forum users, whether or not they own/manage forums, have come to expect certain basic features like:
- quote, multiquote
- topic view stats
- unread posts link
- Signature
- Profile photo/avatar
- bbcode
- WYSISYG editor
- forum search, context search
- uploading images
- members online
- private messaging
- smilies/emoticons
- forum moderation
- user registration approval
etc.

I understand that bbPress is built to be modular, and I think bbPress is right in leaving this functionality to plugins.

However, there are 2 problems:
- On wordpress.org plugin directory (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/) there is no good way of listing all bbPress plugins. Perhaps you should create a special nomenclature or special tag that bbPress plugins should use?
- If you look at bbPress plugin browser (http://bbpress.org/plugins/), most plugins are quite old...updated in 2010, 2009, even 2008! This is not very reassuring or confidence inspiring. Now, many of the old plugins may still be working fine, but when I see the "last updated" date is June 2010 for a plugin, I assume it is outdated, not developed and not supported anymore. I perceive that this will be a trouble plugin if I install it, and consequently end up with less functionality than I want. And I blame bbPress for it, saying bbPress doesn't have all the features I want.

My suggestion is this: Every time there is a new version of WordPress or bbPress, the bbPress plugins should release a new version too, even if the only difference is to add a comment line that says "compatible with version so and so". This will go a long way in reassuring prospective users that can install the plugin with confidence.

7. Forum sidebar: There is a plugin called bbPress WP Tweaks (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-wp-tweaks/). What it proposes but in my experience fails to do should be part of the core software. bbPress WP Tweaks was created so that the admin could relace the WordPress standard sidebar with a forum-specific sidebar on forum pages. This, in my estimation, would be useful for 90%+ of all bbPress users.

8. Custom fields: One of the most powerful features of WordPress is custom fields. bbPress should not disable this for forum pages.

9. Custom headers code field: bbPress should have provision for a custom header code field, wherein the admin can put in some code, which bbPress then inserts in the header on forum pages. In one flick, this would make bbPress customization so much more powerful.

To sum up, it takes a lot of persistence and determination to love bbPress. This is not great to attract new users. The software has a lot of potential, and I believe the number of installations can be increased multifold if the above issues are tackled in earnest.

Thanks for listening to my ramblings. And if you went tl;dr I have only myself to blame.

This works http://DOMAIN.com/forums.

However the forum and post I created do not load
http://DOMAIN.COM/forum/forum-name
http://DOMAIN.COM/topic/topic-title

Does anyone know what's wrong?

PS I don't think people who are seeking help should have their posts marked as spam. If a mod or user has an issue with a post, how about you allow the user to know what the problem is so it can be corrected. And if you have enough time to mark a post as spam, then you have enough time to assist with my questions in the post. I should not be submitting a second thread in 2 days for troubleshooting support. Not good at all.

The next poster's message (regardless of user role) overwrites my tags or erases them all together.

In fact, every post overwrites the previous tags.

Que? Have I setup something wrong? This happened in a fresh install with the default template too.

Is it possible to have a page-forum.php file in my WordPress theme, and have the plugin use that?

Most of my template files have a sidebar, and I'd like to remove that for the forum.

I recently activated Buddypress and now want to convert my existing Forums created using the SimplePress Plugin to the BuddyPress Forums and wanted to know if there was an easy way to do this.

Thanks for any suggestions…

Didn't find any resources in source, so I posted this thread. Any idea how this happened? I'm not using WP default theme, currently using the following plugins:
- Akismet
- Breadcrumb
- Formidable
- Gravity
- Gravity Forms with Addons
- s2Member
- and WP UI

Any known conflicts?
