This is done by putting some code into the footer.php
If you’re into coding, then google ‘wordpress post footer’ and you’ll find several examples of how to put posts into footers. You’d be looking to add a parameter of ‘post_type’ = ‘topic’,
Alternately you could try
https://wordpress.org/plugins/nurelm-get-posts/
and see if that works in your footer – no idea if it will !
the code would be something like
[get_posts post_type=”topic” numberposts=15 orderby=”post_date” order=”DESC”]
or maybe order = “ASC” !
great – glad you’re fixed !

ok, lets start with eliminating plugin and theme conflicts
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.

You could try my plugin
bbp Private Groups
which lets you create private groups as you seem to want
@netweb – I’ll be adding it to wordpress plugins as soon as I’ve changed it unlimited groups!
suggest its a plugin issue – seems to have been found before
first entry missing on single topic page // visible only for admin
and when coding a plugin recently I had exactly the same issue, but as I’m now old and brain going I cant remember how I fixed it, but I did!
It is related to filters applied to bbpress functions – it may be in bbp_has_replies, but somewhere if you mis-filter for replies only, then the resultant wp-query doesn’t have the topic post_id to display as it’s been filtered out.
Anyway one for the plugin author I’m afraid !
I presume you mean the profile in the toolbar?
If so, I turn the toolbar off for all users apart from admin. It is ugly and takes away from your theme.
You can then put it as a menu item see
Layout and functionality – Examples you can use
for details
@pasquale-galasso – hey thanks.
Yes unless I get someone else with the issue, I leave it for the moment.
Do come back if you find other issues
The ‘group’ would be the area, so you’d create an area say called “north-west” and then users would belong to that group, and any number of forums can then be allocated to that group, and a fourm can belong to several groups.
8 is only a limit as I had to start somewhere, and I plan an unlimited number for a future release.
How many are you after?
@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

Themes

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 !
