In reply to: WP 4.1.1 Forum not logging in
would definitely be worth you changing that back as a test and seeing if that fixes.
In reply to: Topics and Posts not counted correctlyI presue you did an import (40K posts in 6 weeks would be pretty amazing !)
ok, next question is did they all come across?
Can’t see any widget area in your forum, can you post a link/url to a page showing the issue.
Thanks
In reply to: Cannot post in the forumsorry for delay in response, very busy time !
I can create topics in beauty forum, but not in the Healthy Food forum?
can you
a. not see the reply form
b. see it by not type in it
c. type in but it doesn’t save
d something else?In reply to: how to see forums ?In reply to: Topics and Posts not counted correctlyhas it always done this?
is it a new installation?
when did it start?
and apart from you, will anyone really care??? 🙂 🙂In reply to: Multiple create topic formswhy not just have one form, referenced by a button at the top.
function bsp_create_new_topica () { $text='Create New Topic' ; if ( bbp_current_user_can_access_create_topic_form() && !bbp_is_forum_category() ) echo '<div style="text-align: center;"> <a href ="#topic">'.$text.'</div>' ; } function bsp_create_new_topicb () { echo '<a name="topic"></a>' ; } add_action ( 'bbp_template_before_single_forum', 'bsp_create_new_topica' ) ; add_action( 'bbp_theme_before_topic_form', 'bsp_create_new_topicb' ) ;(not tested as its cut down code from one of my plugins)
adds a link which lets you add a link to the top of the page which sends you to the bottom, which you can easily make a button.
add to your functions file https://codex.bbpress.org/functions-files-and-child-themes-explained/
or take the guts into the template you’re amending.
You could probably send it to a collapsing div at the bottom if you tinker
That way you only have one form
In reply to: Forum SetupGreat – glad the plugin is working for you !
In reply to: WP 4.1.1 Forum not logging inok, it’s working fine on my test site with bbpress and twentyten.
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 twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.
Then come back
In reply to: Paginate recent topcis pagemy shortcode
[bsp-display-topic-index show=’100′]
in
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/
will let you change the number displayed, but only one page I’m afraid !
In reply to: bbp Style Pack – styling and displaying forumsI tried it again and it works.
But you will need to reload your page, and a simple refresh won’t get it to load. If in doubt, close your browser and re-open it.
Let me know if you continue to have difficulty
In reply to: Show latest reply author nameok, I’ve just finished coding a ‘latest activity’ widget that should do what you want.
I’ve added it to my bbp-style-pack
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/
which you can load to the site and just use (there’s lots of other stuff in there), or if you’re code savvy, you can fork it form includes/widgets.php into your functions file
Hope you enjoy it !
In reply to: "bbPress ready theme" means what?You’re welcome !
In reply to: Different Titles – bbpress additional shortcodesI think what you want is the template from my plugin bbp style pack
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/
you can install this plugin if you like, it has lots of stuff in it, but if you just want the styling above then download the plugin to your pc, and do the following
1. 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
2. Find bbp-style-pack/extras/loop-forums.php and make a copy
3. Paste this copy into the directory called bbpress that you created in 1. above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-forums.php
4. Reload the site (don’t just refresh)
To stop using this just delete the file wp-content/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-forums.php
In reply to: Different Titles – bbpress additional shortcodesYou would add the titles in between
eg
title a
[shortcode]
title b
[shortcode]
and use the page styling to make the titles header, or bold or whatever
The ‘forum’ is a column header
interesting, looks like it has been discontinued.
I have a version, but I’ll look to see if there are alternatives
In reply to: profile page links??no, sorry but the site uses a database and php to call the code
if you know html, then getting into php is not so bad, but maybe do some training first, this is a good intro
In reply to: change forum sidebargreat – glad you’re fixed !
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
