ok, sounds like you need a test site
https://codex.bbpress.org/creating-a-test-site/
so that you can test things like installing bbpress prior to going live !
Anyway, back to your immediate issue, it will be very theme dependant, and sounds like your theme is doing something with search after you’ve disabled it
you say ‘our site continues to use the search functions that we setup. ‘ have you some special search function, or how is your search working?
In reply to: Forum subscription subscribes to all forumsok, thanks for the info, V useful, as at least it’s only a display, rather than changing what is subscribed, although obviously I appreciate that if you think you are subscribed to a forum when you’re not, you may be equally annoyed !
I really have no experience of buddypress, so let me have a think and I’ll come back shortly !
In reply to: Full Width for bbpress forums root page@lumartist – Good to have someone who is an expert on css on the forum – my css is rubbish !
In reply to: Forum subscription subscribes to all forumsIt could be a bbpress + buddypress + private groups issue
Buddypress filters some bbpress code, so my plugin may be overwriting a filter that buddypress is using to control either subscriptions or the info it is displaying about bbpres subs.
Did you check if subscribing to one forums ACTUALLY subscribes to them all, or whether buddypress is just saying that they are?
You could check this by unsubscribing from forum b, then subscribing to forum a, checking that buddypress says you’re subscribed to forums a & b, and then posting in forum b to see if you get an email.
In reply to: Forum subscription subscribes to all forumsmy plugin private groups should do what you want
ok I looked and it would require a filter to re-write
bbp_get_reply_author_link
held in
bbpress/includes/replies/template.php
This is beyond the time I currently have available – sorry !
In reply to: Forum subscription subscribes to all forumsPresume this doesn’t happen when you switch to a default theme?
Also test whether it is actually subscribing to all forums, or just saying that it is.
In reply to: Topics and Replies Not Showing UpOk so sorry it looks like a theme issue.
I don’t thin k it will help, but just might, so try
In reply to: Not seeing forum sidebarok, with the code in, try the following
Deactivate bbpress tweaks
Dashboard>plugins>bbpress tweaks>deactivateGo into widgets
Dashboard>appearance>widgetsAnd look at the bottom of the left hand side. You’ll see an “inactive sidebar”, with your entries on
Below this is an “inactive widgets”
Drag all the entries from the inactive sidebar to the inactive widgets area.
This then allows wordpress to delete the sidebar
I normally log out and in again at this stage – probably not needed, but I’ve never bothered to check
Then basically reverse the above
Re-enable bbpress tweaks
You see the bbpress sidebar returns
Drag the entries back from the inactive widgets area to the sidebarok, sounds like you have a conflict
try
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: Per Forum Permissions by GroupTom,
am struggling to keep up with your testing 🙂
Ok, so can you let me have your ‘private group’ settings for
forum visibility
general settingsso that I can replicate what you are seeing
ok, ignore the code (it is confusing me)
So you have a topic started and this displays in the ‘post author’ part an avatar, the topic author name, but no role
Next someone replies and this displays in the ‘post author’ part an avatar, and the reply author name, but nothing else
Next is a reply by the original author, and in the ‘post author’ part this display an avatar, and their name in say a green block (and nothing else)
Is that what you want?
In reply to: login fails and no html formatting optionsThough dashboard access is restricted and allows only to edit the profile page, I don’t want that to happen. How to prevent that from happening?
add the following to your functions file
//disable toolbar for non-admins if (!current_user_can('manage_options')) { show_admin_bar(false); }In reply to: Problem with permalinks after bbpress-update to 2.54Ok, I’ve spent some time this morning looking around, and a solution is well beyond my current knowledge – sorry 🙁
In reply to: Not seeing forum sidebarOk, the ‘page template’ you are using probably doesn’t have a sidebar.
Your theme has a sidebar template from the demo I just looked at.
So have a look at you page templates to find one which has ‘sidebar’ mentioned
If that’s not working, then you may need to take out the current sidebar line and replace it with
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
come back if you need further help !
In reply to: Capability needed for subscription notificationIf a user who has capability “participate” subscribes to a forum and then is demoted to capability “spectate”, will the user continue to receive notifications?
Yes, spectators can subscribe to forums, and this is against the user, not their access level.
It is certainly possible to code to prevent this, you be looking at filtering the functions
bbp_get_topic_subscribe_link
bbp_get_forum_subscribe_linkBut whilst I’d love to, I have too much on at the moment to code it – sorry 🙁
@robkk – do you still want help or are you now ok?
In reply to: Showing "Only" related topics under ForumsOk I had a quick look.
I’d suggest your two topics are both sticky or supersticky.
Sticky will put a topic at the top of the forum it belongs to
Super sticky will put a topic at the top of every forum.In reply to: Help with creating member's only sectionforum access, then for how you want it to work, then they would need to be users
Website access – you said that the rest of the website would have free access to everyone, so they won’t need usernames etc.
In reply to: Problem with permalinks after bbpress-update to 2.54Ok, suspect that since bbPress authors have change how this works, then that is how the authors want it to work.
But I’ll take a look when I get a moment !
In reply to: Help with creating member's only sectionExample of my set up: On forum topic is open for all member’s to see and comment on
the other topic is set for Officers only.You’ll need my plugin :
In reply to: Forum Settings Viewable By Spectatorgreat – glad you’re fixed !
In reply to: Showing "Only" related topics under Forumshave you used
In reply to: How to have members registerYes wordpress does like to try and show the toolbar which I hate !!
Put the following in your functions file
//disable toolbar for non-admins if (!current_user_can('manage_options')) { show_admin_bar(false); }This will mean that only admins can see the toolbar
If you don’t know how to add code to the functions file, work you way through

so apart from your dashboard display, I can see what you see.
Does your dashboard issue disappear with twentyten (which is what I am testing with) ?
And now since I can see what you see, what would you like to happen ?
