Any news on 2.6 it’s on RC 7 now.

It’s been on RC 7 since December of last year. You can check the dev tracker for 2.6 here (still being worked on) –

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/report/5?sort=modified&asc=0&page=1

It was listed at 99%, but now back to 98% as a result of some bugs.

Ok never mind it was the wordpress address url and site address url that was making noip not work so i fixed it so it should work but the error is still there when i try to make a topic or reply.

[frankimc]

Ok so my wordpress address URL is http://host.ip/wordpress
My site address URL is /wordpress
And I’m using noip
Now I haven’t tried the noip route and I think there might be a problem using noip as the site takes forever to load. But then I tried host-IP the loading was way faster then noip. (by the way my computer is on the same network as the device that’s hosting the website)

[frankimc]

Can someone please help. I have tried almost everything When ever I try to make a new topic I get the ERROR: Are you sure you wanted to do that? Same thing for replying. I can create forums and topics and replies manually but I can’t do it through the website. The issue still happens with the Twenty’s themes. and I also tried removing all other plugins. I am local hosting wordpress 5.2.3 using bbpress 2.5.14 and my website is craftnations.ddns.net (If you want to see for yourself). PLEASE HELP ME!!!

Hi there,

I’m a fresh out of water BBPress user and I have never coded in my life 🙂

We have just set up a BBPress forum on our WordPress website and we are looking into changing what is displayed in the profile section. At the moment it’s Forum Role, Topics Started and Replies Created.
I would like to create custom fields like Company, Job Title, Area, Email, Phone Number and Website to be displayed there.

First of all, I would need to add these sections in Profile Edit tab. Secondly, find a way to display them on the Profile page.

I have to mention, I have found a way to remove Forum Role, Topics Started and Replies Created by editing plugin file bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/user-profile.php

Also, I have just noticed that when you visit somebody’s profile page, his name is not displayed there, which would be something i would like to be displayed as well 🙂

Have anyone managed to do things mentioned above, and would be willing to share with the class? 🙂

Many thanks,
Dominik

yes private groups

Private groups

and enable topic permissions

[Robin W]

you could put the files in your theme directory, but unless you change them, there will be no difference on what you have now – that will require you to know and edit css files

This might be a better solution

WORDPRESS VERSION [Last checked on September 18, 2019 at 9:48 am. Check Again

BBPRESS VERSION: 2.5.14

I am using the bbpress [forum] plugin.
I do not want to use it in its default state. I want to have it maintain my site’s design.
According to what I have read [HERE; https://codex.bbpress.org/themes/theme-compatibility/ ]

to do so requires me to copy both the bbpress and the css directories
from the default folder and paste it or upload
it into the ‘theme’ directory/ folder.

Thing is I am not quite sure if I ought to paste them [ bbpress & css directories] into the wp-config.php folder
& if so where [in the wp-config.php folder] ? Is it Before or after the present info I see there now?

Hi. What is the expected timing for 2.6?

I recently installed BBPress and was surprised the latest version for installation was 2.5.14. I also get a notice that the plugin “has not been tested with your current version of WordPress.”

Performance/speed is important to me, and last I looked into it 2.6 was supposed to be a big improvement.

[RedPrez16]

WordPress version is 5.2.3
bbPress version is 2.5.14

Hello,
I am having a problem with bbPress. When I go to my forum, my welcome page is in that path. Like it is Welcome > Forum > Forum topic. I do not want my welcome page to be there. I have included a screenshot that will show what I am talking about. If someone can help me out here, that would be awesome.

Thank you in advanced!

How do I set my bbPress forums page as my home page in WordPress?

[Robin W]

bbpress expects to see a wordpress user, and if you current app doesn’t do that, then bbpress won’t work – it is hooked at every turn to user_id in wordpress.

best I can offer is

Login with Salesforce

Hello,

my bbpress version is 2.5.14
Wordpress version is 5.2.3

When a topic is created in a single forum, that topic is also displayed in all other forums aswell. So all forums include all the topics. How can I fix it?

I would add the website link, but under construction mode enabled so not accessible

[kbrennemaneab]

Thanks Robin, however we don’t use WordPress users for authentication. User management is handled outside WordPress and managed through a session cookie. I’m just wondering if anyone has had any experience with this type of setup, maybe using a hook that checks for preexisting authentication. Thanks.

[yaragad]

Thanks, i will try but it will take me a bit, as I need to understand/google some things.

Meanwhile, maybe it is easier if it is possible to use an icon instead. Like this:

[Robin W]

bbpress just uses wordpress user, so if your site authenticates to WP, then bbpress will work fine

[Robin W]

Try this :

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

Code Snippets

/This function changes the text wherever it is quoted
function change_translate_text( $translated_text ) {
	if ( $translated_text == 'Publicaciones' ) {
	$translated_text = 'Mensajes';
	}
	return $translated_text;
}
add_filter( 'gettext', 'change_translate_text', 20 );

If that doesn’t work try

/This function changes the text wherever it is quoted
function change_translate_text( $translated_text ) {
	if ( $translated_text == 'Posts' ) {
	$translated_text = 'Mensajes';
	}
	return $translated_text;
}
add_filter( 'gettext', 'change_translate_text', 20 );

I have tried deactivating memberpress to see if there was interference with that plugin, but that isn’t showing anything either. Does anyone have any suggestions?

[Robin W]

if you have a caching plugin, or your hoster uses caching, then this can prevent the pages from updating.

see this article

Other question, assigning a forum moderator to a forum (subforum not category) doesn’t seem to work. I assigned a user by his WordPress Username.

[Robin W]

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

Code Snippets

/This function changes the text wherever it is quoted
function change_translate_text( $translated_text ) {
	if ( $translated_text == 'old text' ) {
	$translated_text = 'new text';
	}
	return $translated_text;
}

and change ‘old text’ to what you want to change, and ‘new text’ to what you want it changed to

So 0 settings have been edited, 0 forums created. It’s essentially freshly installed on wordpress. When I click the forums link on the wordpress admin controls page, a 403 forbidden error pops up.
