Hi Brovashift,
Let’s see if we can add this as feature request in a next version or if there is any issue with this.
Pascal.
Hi Nicolas,
It works fine for me now on my mobile ! But I had to do a page refresh, so probably it’s your local cash on your phone/tablet.
Pascal.
Hi,
I see a (very) similar request on the buddypress forum. It also seems that BuddyPress updated some days ago (March 2, 2016). Do you think you have these issues since that upgrade ?
Pascal.
Hi,
Sure there is: https://codex.bbpress.org/features/reply-threading/
Please note the bottom 2 small ‘issues’.

Hi selenii,
From what I understand, you say that a certain user is posting topics, but the keymaster/moderator has to approve them ?
But you have another user that can post a topic without any problem ?
If my understanding is correct, can you please tell me:
– what is the role (participant, moderator, …) of the user that has the problem?
– what is the role of the user that can post a topic without the need for approval?
In most of the cases there is a security plugin or a setting that causes this, but please start by confirming my assumptions above are correct.
Pascal.
Hi @siparker,
If you have any info and a trac ticket is already there, then I would say add it there, yes !
I know that @netweb will be checking this also when dealing with Permalinks.
Thanks,
Pascal.
Well, it is fixed in bbPress 2.6 that should come up pretty soon, so if you can hold a bit longer… If not, feel free to install the alpha version (for testing) that is pretty stable : https://bbpress.org/download/
Any input would be welcome !
Thanks, Pascal.
Hi @blandow,
Styling can be done in a lot of ways. You can play yourself with some CSS starting from https://codex.bbpress.org/layout-and-functionality-examples-you-can-use/
Or you can check plugins. bbP style pack might be able to help you for the background.
Pascal.
Now this is teamwork ! 🙂
Thanks to all, Pascal.
@robkk, thanks for pointing to that one !
@robin-w, works on my site (just a slight overlapping of the picture on the name, but that could be another thing I did on the avatars.
@nicolasmahy, can you have a try ?
Pascal.
I have launched the question to some of the other guys, let’s see if they have an idea.
Pascal.
Hi Nicolas,
Ah, het studentenleven, waar is de tijd 🙂
It seems that any device with a screen going below 480 pixels in width will have this issue (try to use a browser on the PC and play with the window). You seem to be using a standard 2013 theme, but that does not seem to be the issue because I have the same behaviour on a test website with another theme.
Let me have a look around.
Pascal.
Ok, keep us informed.
Pascal.
Hi Pete,
Your questions on viewed by anyone and registration are a pure WordPress matter as bbPress is using WordPress users. What does not come out of the box can be accomplished with some plugins.
To restrict bbPress, I personally use ‘bbP Private Groups’ and ‘Members’ from Justin Tadlock, but there are others of course.
Pascal.
Hi,
Just for clarity, when you talk about ‘posts’ and ‘comments’, I suppose you mean ‘topics’ and ‘replies’, right ?
I have no idea about that plugin but as you describe it, it does not seem to work correctly with bbPress WordPress post types.
I use ‘bbP Private Groups’ and ‘Members’ from Justin Tadlock on some of my sites and that seems to work great.
Pascal.
Hi,
bbPress login is a WordPress login. I suppose woocommerce is also using standard WordPress logins ?
Check any of the snippets or plugins in this thread if it can help: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/setup-login-for-private-forum/
Pascal.
Hi,
bbPress was at 2.5.8 when this patch was given, but maybe buddypress changed ?
You could try on their forums…
Pascal.
Hi,
bbPress should be one of the easiest plugins to install, so it’s a pity to see you leave. Please remember to clean before deactivating (then of course this will not solve your issue that the site goes down, but it’s better to have a clean database): https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/installing-bbpress/deleting-bbpress/
Come back anytime if you want to consider bbPress again.
Pascal.
Hi,
Did you use bbPress 2.5.8 or 2.6 dev ? The new 2.6 has better conversion options, so you might try that one. But I think your problem is more related that it does not find the source correctly.
Pascal.
Category and then forums should be standard already, but indeed this is maybe not for moderators.
I will draw the attention to this ticket to the developers. Let’s see what they say.
Pascal.
If you don’t have a parent, then try Tools > Forums > Repair Forums and launch the first 3 repair actions (one at a time). If not working, launch also all the other repairs (again one at a time)
Pascal.
From what I remember, it restarts where it left off…
Pascal.
Hi ruuizz,
If you have already deactived all plugins except bbPress and switched to a default theme and you still do not see ‘Forums’, ‘Topics’ and/or ‘Replies’, then please try this in Settings > Forums (check after every step if you find the options back on your dashboard):
– ‘Settings > Forums’ : (de)activate ‘Anonymous posting’, save, (de)activate it again to get back to your original setting, save
– ‘Settings > Forums’ : (de)activate ‘Auto role’, save, (de)activate it again to get back to your original setting, save
– Deactivate the bbPress plugin, then reactive the bbPress plugin
– ‘Tools > Forums > Repair Forums’ : Remap existing users to default forum roles, click ‘Repair Items’ (WARNING: Make sure to have multiple admins in case the keymaster role would disappear from one account)
Let me know if this fixes anything,
Pascal.
