@pasquale-galasso
two more questions :
Does it work if you have a correct url in the boxes?
Can you try it with a default theme such as twentytwelve to rule out a theme issue
thanks
Have you tried copying and renaming your full width page template as per
Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – Part 1
great, glad you’re fixed !
Within the default bbPress you cannot do this – forums are either visible or not depending on whether you’re logged in, and you cannot assign users to forums
However the following plugin allows you to assign users to one of up to 8 groups, and have multiple forums belonging to those groups, so should probably achieve what you want.
bbp Private Groups
ok, presume this is a new install?
also presume that you have set yourself up as at least participant in the user profile – the forums permissions are near the bottom when you edit a user
If so then
maybe a plugin or theme 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.
Think your next step is to the theme author
have you tried switching themes to a default one such as twnentytwelve to eliminate a theme issue?
@funin
Not quite sure I understand
You can have multiple forums with multiple access levels
In combination with the default bbPress access a forum can be
totally public – everyone can see and contribute – even anonymous users can make posts
public – everyone can see, but only registered users can contribute
private – only logged in user can see the forum exists, and can either contribute as participants or just see as spectators
group visible – everyone can see that a forum exists, but only logged in users with permission for that forum can see forum topics and replies, and can either contribute as participants or just see as spectators.
Group invisible – only users with permission for the forum can see that they exist, and can either contribute as participants or just see as spectators.
Basically you have a great deal of flexibility on how you set your forum site up.
so if you want a forum that people can see and contribute to alongside ones that are either private or with just topics visible, then this is possible.
ok thanks – I can only assume that this is related to how wamp deals with local urls, as I can neither see how the code could get to that stage, nor can I replicate on-line.
However leave it with me, and I’ll see if I can add some code that checks to see if it looks like a url.
If you leave these both blank, does it go to a login or 404 page as it should?
great – glad you’re fixed !
Great, glad you’re fixed !
Hey Dimonza – never any harm in trying, and wish your business success !
But I have removed the links

By default users are not notified, they have to tick a box on each topic/reply to say that they want emails for anyone who posts to that topic. Is that what you are after?, or do you positively want to stop any emails? Seems a bit harsh for your users not to let them know that someone’s just rubbished the post that they made, but am sure you have valid reasons !
‘When post are made I would like Keymaster users to get an email.’
use a plugin such as bbPress notify
‘When Participants post I don’t want them to get an email.’
Do you want to actively stop them, or do you just mean don’t mail to all participants?
Maybe not the most elegant, but this is quick and easy and should do it
In you theme, create a folder called ‘bbpress’ eg
wp-content/themes/your-theme-name/bbpress
then create a file called
content-single-user.php
into that put the following code
<?php
/**
* Single User Content Part
*
* @package bbPress
* @subpackage Theme
*/
?>
<div id="bbpress-forums">
<?php echo 'Sorry access not permitted' ; ?>
</div>
then save this file to the bbpress folder you created above
If you want to completely hide the page, you could just put say your homepage url into the echo line and they would just be taken to the homepage.
suggest it is a theme issue – try changing to a default theme such as twentytwelve and see if that fixes.
If so, then contact woothemes for a fix to their theme.
If not come back
Ok so you’re a wordpress site – so see
Codex
for step by set how to install
hmmm…
I’m not very sure quite what you are doing 🙂
Bbpress doesn’t really have themes (the old version 1 may have done)
Can you post a link to the theme you downloaded?
Ok, so I cannot replicate either
Mine just saves correctly
or
‘If in the fields as in the image I write random words, the plugin stops working and all the forums are visible for all’
mine appends the random words to the current forum url, which then just send you to a 404 page
Can you confirm that you are still having both these issues?
Hey thanks for continuing to test – really appreciated it !
on the settings page – I can’t replicate this – I just tried a new install, and whatever combination of activate I use in the general settings, they still save ok. I am not sure what to suggest next – let me have a think.
For the random words, I’ll take a look later today and fix.
ok,
so given
No other plugins than bbpress
a theme of twentyten
and that you as user are set up with ‘participant’ or above authority
what exactly do you mean by ‘I cant add topic to forum’
Is this :
as a user in the front end?
as a participant or above in the back end?
what message are you getting, and when – eg “you cannot post topics…”
thanks, does this happen as you enter this page, or as you try to exit?
great – thank you – I will update the code to stop the error for future users !
and another thought – have you been into settings to set up the groups? Dashboard>settings>private groups
It may be that I’ve not allowed for this – so if you have just downloaded the plugin and gone straight into setting up a page it might fail – I’d need to test, but please let me know.
