In reply to: No replies issue
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, switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.
In reply to: BBPress Avatarsthere are several avatar plugins out there, but none I know of have the specific requirements that you want.
try my plugin
ok, given that I presume you want to get rid of all topics and replies in the forum, and then the forum itself.
First take a backup – after you have permanently deleted, there is no way back !
then delete the topics and replies for that forum (or they’ll still appear in searches)
Dashboard>topics
at the top click screen options, and select say 500 so that you can delete 500 topics at a time !
The filter for the forum you want to delete and choose bulk delete.
Repeat for replies
Then
Dashboard>forums and select your forum and edit
under ‘publish’ on the right hand side you’ll see ‘move to trash’
click this and move to trash
you may then want to permanently delete the topics, replies and forum, maybe after backing up first !
In reply to: Forum not showing in /forumyes, sorry that we have not picked this one up earlier

In reply to: Email notifications are not sentyou’re welcome!
In reply to: BB Press Forum – email / approval and picturesI use the plugin Confirm User Registration which does exactly what you originally asked for.
You do need a small mod to get the participant part to work, but if you want to approve all users before they go live, then try this and if it’s what you want come back and I’ll give you the mod that makes the bbpress participant role work.
I also use SB Welcome Email Editor to make the wohle thing make sense to the user
In reply to: Unable to view forum rootcould be many things
lets start by eliminating plugin and theme

In reply to: unregistered users can't see topicHow urgent? – I’m working on some other stuff at the moment, but I could load UAM in a few days and take a look.
In reply to: user profile link giving a 404 errorwhich of course is then not a localhost, so that’s why it doesn’t work?
In reply to: get search to show summaryI agree with you, but I am only a supporter here, I do not write the software !
I will take a look when I can and see how hard it would be.
In reply to: user profile link giving a 404 errormay be a local host problem.
when you hover over the username of someone that has posted you should see the intended URL at the bottom of the screen?
In reply to: unregistered users can't see topicok, I’ve seen UAM before but not used it.
If I understand correctly you want to protect posts and pages, but not the forums.
That should be doable.
bbpress uses 3 types of custom post
topic
reply
forumIt may be that you need to look that you’ve not set UAM restrictions on topics and replies thinking that these were WP not bbpress? That would explain the result you are getting.
In reply to: Forum list cutting offgreat – glad you’re fixed !
In reply to: Create new Column – Show Thread Status in ForumIt can be done, you would start with
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-forums.php
remove the number – that’s also on loop single reply – see my response on
take out line 27 on loop single reply
change word
put the following into your functions file
//This function changes the text wherever it is quoted function change_translate_text( $translated_text ) { if ( $translated_text == 'reply' ) { $translated_text = 'new text'; } return $translated_text; } add_filter( 'gettext', 'change_translate_text', 20 );and just change ‘new text’ to whatever you want it to say

In reply to: phpbb to bbpress converter and best practice?bbpress has a number of converters, including phpbb
https://codex.bbpress.org/import-forums/phpbb/
suggest you create a test site and give it a go. That will tell you if you need to get back to a vanilla version first.
https://codex.bbpress.org/creating-a-test-site/
to convert, just go into dashboard>tools>forums>import forums
Stephen Edgar is the bbpress converter guru, and if you hit difficulties I’d suggest you post a new thread, and I’m sure he’ll help.

In reply to: Forum list cutting offok, something is truncating this into excerpt
You need to see if it’s a plugin issue, switch back to a default theme.

In reply to: Shortcode Topic – Add Reply Formsorry, you need to put it at the end of your functions file
In reply to: get search to show summaryok, that’s deep within the search function, I’ll take a look if I get a chance, but that may bot be possible !
In reply to: Shortcode Topic – Add Reply Formok, interestingly (or not !) the forum code uses this shortcode.
Ok so plan b !
I’ve cut a quick new shortcode that looks for content-single-topicb.php
you can download it from my site
use the shortcode
[display-topic-special id=$topic_id]
In reply to: Shortcode Topic – Add Reply FormIt should work for just the shortcode, but let me test on my site
In reply to: get search to show summarynew version
very very important Robin
search by key does not look first in the title of the topic.
hmmm… I have done several searches and they all find the word both in the title and the content. Are you saying that search is not looking in both, or that you would like it to show title matches first, or that you only want title matches?
