goto

Dashboard>forums> and edit each forum.

On the right hand side under forum attributes you will see ‘order’ and enter numbers (0,1,2,3) for the order you want.

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 10 months ago]

depends what you mean by top menu, I suspect primary, in which case

add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_items', 'rkk_add_auth_links', 10 , 2 );
function rkk_add_auth_links( $items, $args ) {
if (is_user_logged_in() && $args->theme_location == 'primary') {
 $items .= '<li><a href="'. wp_logout_url() .'">Log Out</a></li>';
 }
 elseif ( !is_user_logged_in() ) {
 $items .= '<li><a href="'. site_url('wp-login.php') .'">Log In</a></li>';
 $items .= '<li><a href="'. site_url('wp-login.php?action=register') .'">Register</a></li>';
 $items .= '<li><a href="'. site_url('wp-login.php?action=lostpassword') .'">Lost Password</a></li>';
 }
 return $items;
}

all looks fine to me, so have taken out the link on the basis that this may be spam.

If you still have a problem, come back

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 10 months ago]

you put it into the content section of a page or post, so in your case on the homepage

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 10 months ago]

Glad it worked for you !

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 10 months ago]

for main page then use the forum shortcode in the main page

[bbp-topic-index]

or use on of the other shortcodes

Shortcodes

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 10 months ago]

you can add roles and/or change their names – see

Custom Capabilities

The following in an example that both adds new roles and changes the names of existing.

/* bbPress Custom Roles */
function add_custom_role( $bbp_roles ) {
 

$bbp_roles['my_custom_role2'] = array(
'name' => 'Craftsman',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() ) // the same capabilities as participants
);
$bbp_roles['my_custom_role3'] = array(
'name' => 'Journeyman',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() ) // the same capabilities as participants
);
$bbp_roles['my_custom_role4'] = array(
'name' => 'Adept',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() ) // the same capabilities as participants
);
$bbp_roles['my_custom_role5'] = array(
'name' => 'Artisan',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_moderator_role() ) // the same capabilities as keymaster
);
$moderator = bbp_get_moderator_role() ;
$bbp_roles[$moderator] = array(
'name' => 'Councilman',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_moderator_role() ) // the same capabilities as moderator);
$keymaster = bbp_get_keymaster_role() ;
$bbp_roles[$keymaster] = array(
'name' => 'Advisor',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_keymaster_role() ) // the same capabilities as keymaster
);
$apprentice = bbp_get_participant_role() ;
$bbp_roles[$apprentice] = array(
'name' => 'Apprentice',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() ) // the same capabilities as participants
);
return $bbp_roles;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_get_dynamic_roles', 'add_custom_role', 1 );

you can limit access to forums byh changing their visibility

Public – Anyone can see these forums
Private – Only logged in registered users with a forum role can see these forums
Hidden: Only Moderators/keymasters can see these forums

or if you want more control by using :
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/

sorry missed the word in caps from your enquiry !

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 10 months ago]

Use this plugin

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/

and go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>freshness display and select what you want

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 10 months ago]

This is a theme issue – there may well be a setting in the theme or the page or contact the theme authors

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 10 months ago]

Try the forum repairs

dashboard>tools>forums>repair forums and run one at a time

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 10 months ago]

You should see no perceivable impact from this plugin, but you can always check by using a tool such as https://tools.pingdom.com/

on format – if you want further options then use my style pack plugin instead which gives you these options – see the freshness Display tab

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 10 months ago]

If you are not a coder then use the last post plugin above which does it for you

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 10 months ago]

logged in/logged out is I think a buddypress thing.

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 10 months ago]

bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes

It could be a theme or plugin issue

Plugins

Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 10 months ago]

Most likely a theme issue

as a test switch to a theme such as twentytwelve to prove

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 10 months ago]

presuming this is not spam (website removed from the above) , then install via wordpress, and if you get an error, please post exactly what the error is !

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 10 months ago]

You will be able to with my plugin

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 10 months ago]

you should be able to with my plugin

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/

go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>forum display>item 9

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 11 months ago]

in menu or in dashboard?

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 11 months ago]

if you want to attempt it yourself, then download my private groups plugin
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/

and crack open includes/functions.php

you’ll find a filter around line 14 to check permissions on topics and replies and the function it calls further down.

You probably want to create a version of that for yourself.

Have fun !

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 11 months ago]

no problem – glad you’re fixed !

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 11 months ago]

Sorry, no simple solution to this – would require custom coding!

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 11 months ago]

go into

Dashboard>forums>and edit each forum

on the right hand side you’ll see Forum Attributes which includes ‘Order’ lower numbers are earlier, so just number them 1,2,3,4 to order

[@robin-w Moderator 8 years, 11 months ago]

can you list which plugins you are using?
