I get ‘you must be logged in to reply to this topic’
Can you recheck your permissions
In reply to: Log In Problemsok, is it just that one user, or have you tried several?
and also try resetting the password for that user to see if that fixes
In reply to: Subscription email notifications not workingthanks for posting that full description – I have been through it, and only wish I could say “well in that case…”
Clearly subscriptions continue to cause problems. I am only a user of this software who tries to help others, I’m not one of the authors.
I’m not really sure what to suggest next – you would have though this was easy !
In reply to: no topics foundand for
Also, would like to change that “oh bother” to something less “cutesy”.
add the following
//This function changes the text wherever it is quoted function change_translate_text( $translated_text ) { if ( $translated_text == 'Oh bother! No topics were found here!' ) { $translated_text = 'new text'; } return $translated_text; } add_filter( 'gettext', 'change_translate_text', 20 );to your functions file
In reply to: URGENT – Nickname displays in address barHey great – glad we got there in the end !
In reply to: no topics foundok could be several reasons, but lets start with
Dashboard>settings>permalinks and just click save
this will reset the permalinks and quite often makes the above issue go away
ok so I can see a banner on

but no forums listed below
and in
http://new.stonemagegames.com/SMG-Forums/Forum/gaming/
I can see a forum but no banner
which one of the above (or is it both) are you trying to fix, or have I misunderstood the problem?
In reply to: URGENT – Nickname displays in address baroops sorry didn’t take the ); out of the previous line
try
function change_display_name( $user_id ) { $info = get_userdata( $user_id ); $args = array( 'ID' => $user_id, 'display_name' => $info->user_login , 'nickname' => $info->user_login ); wp_update_user( $args ); } add_action('user_register','change_display_name');In reply to: URGENT – Nickname displays in address barok, let’s try setting both
function change_display_name( $user_id ) { $info = get_userdata( $user_id ); $args = array( 'ID' => $user_id, 'display_name' => $info->user_login ); 'nickname' => $info->user_login ); wp_update_user( $args ); } add_action('user_register','change_display_name');This should set both display_name and nickname to the username
In reply to: URGENT – Nickname displays in address barHaving said that it does appear to be using the username now in the address bar ???
with my code in, or without?
In reply to: URGENT – Nickname displays in address baryes that’s to do with how wordpress stores stuff.
the code you need to use is in the post above, don’t use the email one !
Try again and come back !
In reply to: URGENT – Nickname displays in address barand do let me know if it works !
In reply to: URGENT – Nickname displays in address barok, that is buddypress adding the profile fields, so you may need to take it up with them if the next bit doesn’t work !
However whilst doing something for someone else today, I found a function on the net, which I have amended (but not tested) below
function change_display_name( $user_id ) { $info = get_userdata( $user_id ); $args = array( 'ID' => $user_id, 'display_name' => $info->user_login ); wp_update_user( $args ); } add_action('user_register','change_display_name');then on registration it should set the display_name to the username
put this in your functions file
In reply to: bbPress User Profile Manipulationgood start, but that approach gets very complicated, as whilst you have added the fields, you have not saved them or said where to save them – that requires a whole bunch of other code !
Easier approach :
bbpress uses wordpress registration, so it’s easier to hook to that.
The whole bunch of code below is not my original work (but I do use it on one of my sites, so know it works) but if you have a play with it, you should be able to adapt it.
`//add code for adding first and last name to registration
//1. Add a new form element…
add_action(‘register_form’,’myplugin_register_form’);
function myplugin_register_form (){
$first_name = ( isset( $_POST[‘first_name’] ) ) ? $_POST[‘first_name’]: ”;
$last_name = ( isset( $_POST[‘last_name’] ) ) ? $_POST[‘last_name’]: ”;
?>
<p>
<label for=”first_name”><?php _e(‘First Name as people call you eg Dave’,’mydomain’) ?><br />
<input type=”text” name=”first_name” id=”first_name” class=”input” value=”<?php echo esc_attr(stripslashes($first_name)); ?>” size=”25″ /></label>
</p>
<p>
<label for=”last_name”><?php _e(‘Last Name’,’mydomain’) ?><br />
<input type=”text” name=”last_name” id=”last_name” class=”input” value=”<?php echo esc_attr(stripslashes($last_name)); ?>” size=”25″ /></label>
</p>
<?php
}//2. Add validation. In this case, we make sure first_name and last_name is required.
add_filter(‘registration_errors’, ‘myplugin_registration_errors’, 10, 3);
function myplugin_registration_errors ($errors, $sanitized_user_login, $user_email) {if ( empty( $_POST[‘first_name’] ) )
$errors->add( ‘first_name_error’, __(‘ERROR: You must include a first name.’,’mydomain’) );
if ( empty( $_POST[‘last_name’] ) )
$errors->add( ‘last_name_error’, __(‘ERROR: You must include a last name.’,’mydomain’) );return $errors;
}//3. Finally, save our extra registration user meta.
add_action(‘user_register’, ‘myplugin_user_register’);
function myplugin_user_register ($user_id) {
if ( isset( $_POST[‘first_name’] ) )
update_user_meta($user_id, ‘first_name’, $_POST[‘first_name’]);
if ( isset( $_POST[‘last_name’] ) )
update_user_meta($user_id, ‘last_name’, $_POST[‘last_name’]);
}in essence start by looking at the end – 3. save
and the line
update_user_meta($user_id, ‘first_name’, $_POST[‘first_name’]);
this is updating a user_meta field called ‘first_name’ for the user_id $user_id with the information entered in $_POST[‘first_name’]
So it is saving the first name the user enters in a user_meta field for that user called ‘first_name’
My plugin stores the data in a user_meta field called ‘rpi_label1’, so a find/replace to change ‘first_name’ to ‘rpi_label1’ is what is needed throughout the code. then some tidying up of things like the prompts and you should have it working.
Give it a go, and see how you get on. IF you get it working, the deal is you post the result back here, and I can nick it for the plugin (and give you a credit) !
If you don’t then come back with how you are getting on, and I’ll help – too tied up to do all the work myself !
This code by the way goes in your functions file see

In reply to: Subscription email notifications not workingIn reply to: Whitelisting users?@douglsmith – hey thanks for that, and if you get it working, let us know !
In reply to: bbPress User Profile ManipulationThought you said you hated code?!! 🙂
Have you a specific registration template in mind, does your theme come with something?
In reply to: Significant trouble with a stubborn sidebarhmm…. bbpress plays well with wordpress, so that should not happen.
Usually a 500 error in wordpress a coding issue.
Do you only get the 500mn errors when you btry and do something wordpressy?
and when you get a 500 error, click the refresh on your browser, and usually it comes up with the specific error that is occurring – come back with that.
In reply to: Users Answer not in profileok, so
create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpresswhere %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme
find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/user-details.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-details.phpbbPress will now use this template instead of the original
Now edit that file so that you add a new line between line 16 & 17 which currently read
<div id="bbp-single-user-details"> <div id="bbp-user-avatar">so add
<h1> <?php bbp_displayed_user_field( 'display_name' ); ?> </h1>after this line so that you end up with
<div id="bbp-single-user-details"> <h1> <?php bbp_displayed_user_field( 'display_name' ); ?> </h1> <div id="bbp-user-avatar">as the three lines.
and save
It should now display
In reply to: How to add custom colors for each Role ?A quick code to achieve such will be much appreciated.
If it was I’d give it, but it would involve a rewrite of the function bbp_reply_author_link
It’s quite do-able, but I don’t have the time – sorry !
In reply to: 500 error when amr plugin and bbpress are activatedFatal error: Call to undefined function wpb_remove() in /home/f14life/public_html/wp-content/themes/effektive/functions.php on line 59
can you tell us what is on that line please, and give us a few lines before and after
In reply to: Subscription email notifications not workingEmails not working can be caused by many factors. Try working through the following :
1. Spam filters
You should be aware that many spam filters strip messages that do not come from the correct address. So if your site is mysite.com and your email address in wordpress settings>general is fred@gmail.com then it is likely that messages will be dumped in transit. You need to set up email to come from your site eg fred@mysite.com, your hosting provider can help if needed.
2. Just bbpress?
Then you need to see if this is wordpress wide or just bbpress.
Try https://wordpress.org/plugins/check-email/then come back
