sounds like this is the answer

bbp profile information

[trevorstokes]

Hi,
I have never edited any of our users’ roles. Some users have the bbp_participant role, but not all.
When does this (default) role get assigned?
How can I set all those that have no bbp role?
The checkbox “Automatically give registered visitors the PARTICIPANT forum role ” is checked.

Wordpress 5.2.4.
BBPress 2.5.14

[Chuckie]

I have created my own plugin:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/qf5hgv5ksm3z2fo/trucklesoft-autosave-tinymce.zip?dl=0

What it does is install the “autosave” plugin as provided on the TinyMCE website. This is version 4.9.4 which at the time of writing was supported by WordPress 5.2.4.

This plugin by design will warn you if you navigate away from a topic without pressing submit.

What is also good is that it is compatible with “TinyMCE Advanced” so it will not reset any changes you have made to the toolbar using that plugin.

sorry, i forgot wordpress version 5.2.4
bbpress version 2.5.14

[junky81]

good morning. I have a TWO GREAT PROBLEMS:
1) I noticed that within a category there are not all the forums I created but only the first 50! I would like to know how to increase this limit because I have not found any corresponding entry in any setting
2) I can’t create topics with a “high” number of words because the system loads for a long time and then returns an error and doesn’t save the created topic (I can’t even understand what the limit is). the thing is repeated on different PCs and browsers and instead it does not happen if the topic has a number of words not large. also in this case I have not found options to change this limit. I don’t think this limit could have been set by BBpress because it wouldn’t make any sense.

site http://www.forumunito.it, purchased and installed the Disputo theme (https://themeforest.net/item/disputo-wordpress-bbpress-forum-theme/21584099).

PLEASE HELP ME!

giancarlo from italy (sorry form my english and my lack of technical knowledge)

ps I take this opportunity to ask if it is possible, under the categories I created, not to have the complete list of forums or even to delete the data with the number of posts and replies (0,0) for example.

the [bsp-display-topic-index] shortcode in my style pack plugin may be what you need

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>shortcodes to see how it works

[Robin W]

ok, you may need to debug your email system

start with

WP Test Email

then it may be your host provider is stripping emails with many bcc’s in it – some do because of spam, so then look at

AsynCRONous bbPress Subscriptions

let us know how you get on

[stracy2]

Hi Robin. Thank you for responding.

database size should be no problem

I’m glad to hear that, thank you.

This is a custom convert that is a work in progress.

Forums, Topic, Replies all look good, along with a single word search, but we just noticed this issue with searching more than one word.

Another clue, after enabling debug output, “sometimes” a two word search will give this error:
“Fatal error: Allowed memory size of bytes exhausted in /opt/bitnami/apps/wordpress/htdocs/wp-includes/post.php on line 2272”

or bbp toolkit

bbPress Toolkit

[Robin W]

bbPress Notify (No Spam)

[Robin W]

bbpress version 2 just uses WordPress users, so look at WordPress list members plugins

for instance

Members List Plugin

[stracy2]

I’m using WordPress 5.2.4, bbPress 2.6 RC 7. I can privately give anyone in-the-know and willing to help a link to a test site.

Symptoms – A search with one word typically works, but a search with more than one word typically gives HTTP error 500. Another symptom, the search first results page isn’t themed.

The symptoms occur with any/all themes, with all plug ins disabled except bbpress.

The symptoms appear like a server resource issue, but this is an AWS machine and more memory/CPU, increasing memory_limit in php.ini, doesn’t change symptoms.

Is there a limit on database size bbPress can handle? The site has roughly 18K users, 100 Forums, 30K Topics, 160K replies.

I’m grateful for any help, direction, diagnostics.

[berry metal]

The idea is that I just simply want to display a topic with the same title as the post, under each post, as a comments section. Because they are post type, so I can achieve more with them in WordPress, as with comments.

[lightsourceptaah]

I’m using bbpress v2.5.14 with WordPress 5.2.4 running OceanWP v1.7.1
Website url: https://ptaah.com.au

How do I edit the Forum page?
I want to add an introduction paragraph and a Login button.

I’m a beginner, this is my first web adventure – please help!

With many thanks, Anne

Sorry for the confusion. I did mean that I had no access to the old database but I got the sql.gz file of the old database backup that I transferred to a new phpmyadmin that the service provider had made with a wordpress site install. I’m not sure where to continue this anymore. Should I just whipe everything and start over or try to work it out. Again sorry for the confusion. So to put it simply so there is not confusion as I know I’m not the most clear when trying to explain something. I’m making a forum site for father-in-law. He has a old forum still on that is running phpBB. I need to transfer the forum posts etc from sql.gz file to the new site. I don’t know how the transfer tool works and couldn’t find a tutorial. Also if I did get it right I have no idea how to make it show up in bbPress.

[tomijolkkonen]

Ok yes, starting with I’m completely new to this and I need to redesign my Father in laws, forum website. This would be my first time doing this and he said that there is no hurry as he heard from my wife that I know how to code but the thing is I’m only at the basics of C# so not sure if any use here but on to the point.

So he is not able to connect to the old website host site because I dont think it really exists anymore and/or was transferred to another host service. But he has a backup from the old database that used phpBB and he is not really willing to part with everything that was stored in that forum as it contains over 10 years of garthered info on the matter which is central to the forum. So I don’t feel that copying every post would be really a good way as there are around 200k posts on it.
So I have a wordpress site setup with BBpress and have the basics and the serviceprovider has the database on phpmyadmin. I’m looking to use the backup to somehow have the posts etc showup without messing with the actual site but im ok even if it wipes the new design.

I have tried using bbPress import tool but to no avail. I have not found any info considering this. So the old site is still active but I have no access to the old database but I have the old backup. The import tool did not make much sense to me but I tried.For example I am not sure do I use the root name when typing in the database name in the import tool so I have tried to look for a deeper explanation.Also I dont know how the old posts would show up in bbPress.

[Robin W]

there is a theme for this, and my style pack plugin contains some widgets

https://meta.trac.wordpress.org/browser/sites/trunk/buddypress.org/public_html/wp-content/themes/bb-base

bbp style pack

[Robin W]

you can use ‘gettext’ if you haven’t too many

gettext – The Most Useful Filter in WordPress

[Robin W]

hmm… suggest you read the documentation and also look at

bbp style pack

[Robin W]

do you really mean WordPress role subscriber or bbpress role participant ?

[Chuckie]

:)Side question – do the bbPress authors actively view these forums etc.? It all seems rather quiet. Apart from your grateful efforts. I raised one of those trac tickets:

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3266#ticket

[Chuckie]

It was suggested:

https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Filter_Reference/registration_redirect

But I tried:

add_filter( ‘registration_redirect’, ‘my_redirect_home’ );
function my_redirect_home( $registration_redirect ) {
return ‘https://www.publictalksoftware.co.uk/registration-complete’;
}

I used the “Snippets” plugin and it did not seem to work.

[Robin W]

This code will change the WordPress profile to bbpress profile

add_action('wp_before_admin_bar_render', 'rew_admin_bar_remove_wp_profile', 0);

function rew_admin_bar_remove_wp_profile() {
        global $wp_admin_bar;

        /* **edit-profile is the ID** */
        $wp_admin_bar->remove_menu('edit-profile');
 }

add_action('admin_bar_menu', 'rew_add_bbp_profile', 999);

function rew_add_bbp_profile($wp_admin_bar) {
	
			$current_user = wp_get_current_user();
			$user=$current_user->user_nicename  ;
			$user_slug =  get_option( '_bbp_user_slug' ) ;
			if (get_option( '_bbp_include_root' ) == true  ) {	
				$forum_slug = get_option( '_bbp_root_slug' ) ;
				$slug = $forum_slug.'/'.$user_slug.'/' ;
			}
			else {
				$slug=$user_slug . '/' ;
			}
			
			$profilelink = '/' .$slug. $user . '/edit' ;
			
			$wp_admin_bar->add_node( array(
				'parent' => 'user-actions',
				'id'		=> 'bbp-edit-profile',
				'title' => 'Edit Profile',
				'href' => $profilelink,
			) );

}

Put this in your child theme’s function file – or use

So we have the login/register widget.

– User clicks Register
– It then shows the custom Register page
– Fill in details

When a user clicks the “Register” button it then takes you to the default wordpress login page with a small message in the middle saying the registration is complete and to check email.

This is confusing to the user and provides an inconsistent experience. Is it possible in any way to either redirect them to another custom page with the “results” or display it on our page own register page?
