I haven’t tested or used this plugin with buddypress, but this sets up private groups to prevent search and /topics revealing topics, and has widgets for recent topics and recent replies

It is of course possible, but would require coding, suggest you hire someone

great – glad you’re fixed, and sorry we didn’t get to you before self-help !

Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1
for members only forums set these as private, and only logged in users will see them.
bbpress uses the wordpress function
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_avatar
to get the avatar, so you probably need to poke into how wordpress does this.
Yes use my private groups plugin has this option
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/
can you give an example of where and what you put in to get your error, I tried ‘hello’ on the home page and just got valid items.
I’d suggest you contact the theme authors support site. If they are advertising it as bbpress compatibl;e they should be able to tell you.
great – glad you’re fixed
PS in the spirit of open software, when he has cracked it, can you post the solution on here so others can use, I quite fancy it for the footer of one of my website’s home page !!
yes, start with
bbp additional shortcodes
This list the last 5 topics across all the forums, and your friend should be able to crack it open
the end function
function rw_display_topic_index_query( $args = array() ) {
global $show ;
$args['author'] = 0;
$args['show_stickies'] = true;
$args['order'] = 'DESC';
$args['posts_per_page'] = $show ;
return $args;
}
just needs an extra parameter to get the right forum,
If you get him to also look at
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/shortcodes
he’ll find some useful code to do that
I’m here, but this is beyond my technical knowledge – I was hoping that Stephen would pick this up, but he hasn’t – he may be away, or think that I have it under control 🙂
Ok, so with no other plugins and 2.54 you have this problem??
I have 2.54 with twentyten and no issues, permalinks are topic title.
So must be peculiar to your site – so something needs setting/resetting, and obviously permalinks aren’t the answer as they’re working with wordpress. So bbpress is not playing nicely.
How much of a test area do you have that you can try stuff in?
but I use Oblivion theme witch is compatible with bbpress
In which case it is a problem with another plugin.
If that doesn’t fix, then consult themefroest on how the compatible theme works.
Hey no problem, this has fixed two issues I didn’t know it had, so persistence paid off, and thanks for all your help with this !
Agree it would be useful, and could be coded, but there are many calls on the developers time (I’m not a developer).
Is there any way to completely skip the forums index? I don’t see why I would need multiple forums when I can have 1 main forum with different topics.
Yes you can skip the forum index, just create a page and put one of the shortcodes on it
https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/
In your case you’d use
[bbp-single-forum id=$forum_id] – Display a single forums topics. eg. [bbp-single-forum id=32]
Not without coding ! sorry !
Not a quick answer – how well are you able to code?
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.
and see
