If you’re a super admin, you always have access to everything in a stock install. Some custom modification caused this to break.
Try:
- Update your permalinks.
- If you have custom roles and capabilities setup, revert back to normal.
They’re new in bbPress 2.2.
- Spectators can view the forum, but cannot contribute.
- Visitors are what you are before you become a participant. You have the same capabilities as a participant, but you haven’t participated yet.
Could probably remove/hide the Visitor role from display, since it’s not really useful for anyone to manually select it.
I don’t think this guide is 100% accurate anymore, so not worth keeping stuck until it’s corrected.
Looks like a CSS issue in your theme. Try display: block;’ing the main content div, or the wrapper around your content. Possible you have some other weird float/overflow CSS that’s causing this also.
If users show up as anonymous, and post_author’s are incorrect, then something was wrong with the migration script. You can try the Importer that comes with bbPress 2.2, but I’m not sure what “ImportForums” is to be much more helpful.
No database connectivity. I suspect something else besides bbPress is broken.
Also, there is no bbPress 2.2.1 yet; it’s what comes next to address any bugs in 2.2.
The TwentyTen files were pulled out of bbPress core. I’ll be releasing it as a plugin this week, for anyone that still wants the old table-based templates.
Disable BuddyPress’s Forums component. If you’re using bbPress 2.2 on a brand new installation, it will power everything n
As an admin on your site, you have the ability to post unfiltered HTML. There should be a warning above the post box that says this.
Regular user’s HTML is filtered to prevent malicious code from peeking through, and it’s possible images and/or specific attributes aren’t allowed on your installation, and they are getting filtered out.
Doesn’t matter. You need to update your permalinks.
Visit Settings > Permalinks, and hit Save.
Disable BuddyPress’s Forums component.
Thanks for the error message, but why not include a description of what you’re trying to do?
John – You’ll want to update to bbPress 1.1 first; the schematic changed from 1.0 to 1.1.
If there’s missing user data, then the fallback is to Anonymous. The only way there’s missing data is if that user information was deleted or manually altered, directly in the database. In that circumstance, bbPress has no other place to look for user information.
To avoid this problem in the future, but them in:
/wp-content/languages/bbpress/bbpress-ja.*
It’s not the permalink that’s broken, it’s the rewrite rule attached to it. If the rules were correct, WordPress would be serving the page correctly.
@xurxog – To the best of my knowledge, neither of those plugins includes a cleaner script to revert user capabilities back to normal, so you’re going to need to dream up a solution.
The reason this is a problem now, and not before, is bbPress has moved entirely to a dynamic roles system, even ahead of WordPress core (which in the future will move to something like what bbPress has now.)
@xurxog – Did you customize your roles and capabilities with some plugin (like Members?) If so, it’s possible your user capabilities are mucked up somehow.
Check permalinks, and make sure your theme isn’t calling query_posts somewhere before the main loop of content.
Maybe some caching plugin is keeping the rewrite rules option persistent somewhere? Resaving permalinks should fix this right up.
Looks like a CSS issue with your theme. Use Inspector to figure out what CSS is causing the avatar to be in the wrong place. Maybe a float to the left that should be right?
Awesome. Apologies once again. New zip is up already.
Fixed now. You can safely remove the last line of the file of bbpress.php manually if you’d like; the part that says:
exists check
That last line somehow got duplicated on Subversion export. The official logs here do not have that bit in it, just on WordPress.org. Sorry for the inconvenience y’all.
Well, that’s annoying… Fixing.
