In reply to: bbp Style Pack – styling and displaying forumssomeone else reported that (or may have been you) on the plugin page or by email.
I’ll take another look at it when I get a chance
In reply to: Roles being reset every now and thenbbpress stores its role in the same array as wordpress roles
ie in
usermeta[‘wp_capabilities’]
and an entry looks like
a:2:{s:13:”administrator”;s:1:”1″;s:13:”bbp_keymaster”;b:1;}
with admin being the wordpress role and bbp_keymaster being the bbpress role.
A pure wordpress user would look like
a:1:{s:13:”administrator”;s:1}
Now, and this is probably key, when a users registers they just get the wordpress role. When they then log on bbpress sees that it has no role set, so assigns the default role.
Now if emember is writing info to wp_capabilities, it could be overwriting part or the entire array (so by mistake deleting the bbpress role) or appending to it so that bbpress no longer sees it’s role. Then when the user next logs on, bbpress will see no role set, and set it back to the default.
This could explain why users would be going back to default
In reply to: change forum sidebarthe try widget logic
Download “widget logic”
https://wordpress.org/plugins/widget-logic/
This plugin lets you specify conditions for when widget items are displayed.
You would then put all the widgets for both the blog page and the forum page in one sidebar
Against each of these you then specify whether you want it to appear on the forum page, on any page with a sidebar that is not the forum (eg your blog), or on both forum and other sidebar pages.
you do this by putting the following code in the widget logic box that you will see appears against each widget
For a forum sidebar you put : is_bbpress() ie is this page a forum page
For any other sidebar you put : !is_bbpress() ie is this page NOT a forum page
For any item to appear on both, simply leave the logic blank.Give that a try and come back and let us know how it works
In reply to: Show latest reply author nameyes I’ve thought before that that would be good, I’ll take a look
In reply to: profile page links??yes but you’ll need to do some coding
see
http://generatewp.com/shortcodes/
the code would go in your functions file
and the code you’ll be seeking to shortcode is in
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/
in particular
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/user-details.php
In reply to: Moving Forums Root to sub pagethanks for the update – you are way ahead of me in terms of breadcrumb knowledge !
But please post back on how you get on, I’m interested !
In reply to: Won't Expand to Full WidthLong string in here on how to do it
with a link to another thread
If you fix, come back and confirm what you changed
In reply to: Roles being reset every now and thenhmmm, not heard of this in bbpress, I’d suspect emember is having issues with bbpress
In reply to: BB press registration problemSorry I am far from clear as to which parts are happening that are wrong, and which parts you would like to happen.
Please restate your question along the lines of
This is currently happening
I would like this to happen
In reply to: bbPress breaks WP_Query in certain casessuggest you raise a trac ticket
In reply to: Show latest reply author namesorry, have now just looked at this again
Isn’t this just the ‘latest replies’ widget that you need to use, or how does your request differ?
In reply to: Limit the number of postssomething like
function rew_max_shown ($args) { $args['max_num_pages'] = 2 ; return $args ; } add_filter ('bbp_before_has_topics_parse_args', 'rew_max_shown') ;in your functions file
In reply to: "Replies Created" shows pages as wellno problem – glad you’re fixed !
In reply to: How to add search bar and Breadcrumbs for Forum?ok, just had a look
You have made that topic ‘super sticky’ – which is why it is appearing at the top of every forum
Change to sticky to get at the top of just the forum it belongs to
or normal to be just a topic
In reply to: How to add search bar and Breadcrumbs for Forum?But the other problem is still there:
For example, I have A and B forums and I created a topic in A, then when I open B forum, the A topic will show up in B, too.
But I don’t want A’s topic showing up in B. How do I do that?Is the issue there with all plugins disabled AND a default theme?
In reply to: Sidebar IssueGreat – glad you’re fixed !
In reply to: "bbPress ready theme" means what?sorry no definition of ‘bbPress ready themes’ it simply means that the author has written ‘bbPress ready themes’ on his blurb.
Usually means that the theme has been tested with bbpress and recognises it in the theme page files.
Many themes work well with bbpress, some are too ‘clever’ and don’t play well.
In reply to: Sidebar IssueIn reply to: How to add search bar and Breadcrumbs for Forum?you should have breadcrumbs and searchbar by default
for searchbar look in
dashboard<settings>forums>forum features and make sure that ‘search’ is ticked.
Your theme can prevent breadcrumbs from showing, as can other plugins
Themes
As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.
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.
In reply to: forums link – add 'new topics' linkI’ve retitled you post as well to remind me 🙂
In reply to: forums link – add 'new topics' linkhmm not sure if that’s buddypress or bbpress.
can you post a link/url to the page that has the forums link
In reply to: Limit the number of postsI understood up until
after which point the oldest posts get replaced by the newest?
I expect you can limit a forum to only show the latest 50 topics, come back if that is what you want
In reply to: Show latest reply author nameThis is the ‘(bbpress) recent topics’ widget?
and you have it set with topics with recent relies – yes?
That widget doesn’t allow for the reply author.
It could be copied to a functions file, renamed and then edited to do so. If you are reasonable with coding, I will explain further.
In reply to: "Replies Created" shows pages as wellIt could be a theme or plugin issue

Themes
If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.
Then come back
