This is an s2member problem.
BBpress uses the same database meta_key to store both the wordpress and bbpress names. So there are two entries in the wordpress database
so in usermeta the meta-key against a user for wp_capabilities will be set to something like
a:2:{s:13:”administrator”;s:1:”1″;s:13:”bbp_keymaster”;b:1;}
I would suggest that in bulk mode, s2member is just overwriting the whole of this value with the new s2member level, thus deleting the bbpress value.
If you post the above to the s2member support site, they should understand the issue
not sure if this is spam as I can’t find a forum.
Come back within 24 hours please
yes, use the latest activity widget in my plugin
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/
The ‘something happened’ is unfortunately the key to this.
Users will have a role, and the default roles are stated in
bbPress User Roles and Capabilities
so as long as a user has the right level, then the default will tell you what they should have.
But an plugin, or change to functions code can change the default roles, so without pouring over the code, it is impossible to say whether a user has a particular level beyond seeing what they can do.
So you’ll need to come back to ‘something happened’ to wpork out wthat that was and why it affected.
So have you done
theme updates
plugin updates
changed themes
added or deactivated plugins
ok, found the link in your other post.
Posts and comments are a wordpress thing and controlled by wordpress roles
Forums, topics and replies are a bbopress thing and controlled by bbpress roles
You’ll find wordpress roles at the top of a user edit, and bbpress at the bottom
Dashboard>users>all users>edit user and that’ll get you to the screen
and yes functions.php is where you should put it, but generally in a child theme
Functions files and child themes – explained !
Always worth composing a long post on your PC first :-), I’ll come back with an answer on your other post
@celticsweb – ok, let’s see if we can help.
Firstly
Hi okay so I added 2 more roles by following the link above
I appreciate you probably tried to add a link, but it didn’t come through. Without knowing how you did this, it’ll be hard to help further, so come back with that first
ok, we’ll need a link, as I suspect that ‘page into bar ‘ is either a theme related thing or your theme is doing something with the wordpress toolbar.
how is this bbpress related?
ok that’s just because you can have only one function name, and this is duplicating an existing oine (in a plugin I wrote!)
Do this instead
//This function changes the text wherever it is quoted
function orko_change_translate_text( $translated_text ) {
if ( $translated_text == ‘Forum’ ) {
$translated_text = ‘new text’;
}
return $translated_text;
}
add_filter( ‘gettext’, ‘orko_change_translate_text’, 20 );
No problem, glad you’re fixed !
You are, but I suspect that you’ll need to move to manual menu’s to make it work
go to
appearance>menus and create a menu there
ok, bbpress use pages slightly differently.
Are you trying to get the sub page to show in the menu?
hmmm. not really sure exactly what you are trying to do.
How did you create your forum page?
you must have another plugin as well.
I can only suggest you contact you administrator
create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress
where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme
find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/user-topic-created.php
Make a copy of this file, and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/user-topic-created.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
Then modify or overwrite woth your modified file
I see you’re getting some help in the buddypress site, and hopefully they can fix you
you can put a button on the forums pages using
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/
go to settings>bbp-style-pack>forum display and no. 5
admin and keymaster are two seperate things
If you are an admin (or someone who is does this)
go to
Dashboard>users>all users and select your profile and edit
Near the bottom, you’ll see your bbpress lkevel, set this to keymaster
bbpress doesn’t auto subscribe to new topics
try
topic subscribe
and whilst you’re there this is useful too
