Hello,

I am trying to develop a forum in my wordpress site and I have installed bbPress…

My forum will have nested “categories” (down to level 3…)

let me explain better:

Forum category 1
—-> forum sub categity 1.1
———-> forum 1.1.1
———-> forum 1.1.2
———-> forum 1.1.3
—-> forum sub categity 1.2
———-> forum 1.2.1
———-> forum 1.2.2
—-> forum sub categity 1.3
———-> forum 1.3.1
Forum category 2
—-> forum sub categity 2.1
———-> forum 2.1.1
———-> forum 2.1.2

I don’t know if it is my theme or if it is a bbPress configuration, but I cannot see more than level 2

Forum category 1
—-> forum sub categity 1.1
—-> forum sub categity 1.2
—-> forum sub categity 1.3
Forum category 2
—-> forum sub categity 2.1

and to see level 3 I need to clock on level 2 categories….

on top of this I cannot see any breadcrumb navigation for the forum….. is there an option for that?

Many thanks

Regards

[Robin W]

thanks for the post

bbpress includes a version of the wordpress ‘after..parse_args’ which will let you do this so for

•File …/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/template.php line 1735:
change ‘tinymce’ => false, into ‘tinymce’ => true,
•File …/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/template.php line 1736:
change ‘teeny’ => true, into ‘teeny’ => false,

you could put this code into a functions file or plugin

//editor bbpress
function rew_enable_visual_editor( $args = array() ) {
    $args['tinymce'] = true;
    $args['teeny'] = false;
    return $args;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args', 'rew_enable_visual_editor' );

and the ability to filter functions so for

•File …/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/template.php line 1858:
Remove array_push( $buttons, ‘image’ ); to remove the ‘standard’ image insert button that asks for a full url to an image, since we are replacing this by the [photo] shortcode generator.

use this code in your functions file or plugin

function rew_remove_image_button ($buttons) {
	if (($key = array_search('image', $buttons)) !== false) {
		unset($buttons[$key]);
	}
return $buttons ;
}

add_filter( 'bbp_get_teeny_mce_buttons', 'rew_remove_image_button' );

The you don’t need to alter bbpress files

Let me know if I can help further

@heero I know this thread is old but it still shows up 1st page when I search bbPress themes. So I thought it would be worth providing an upto date answer for future viewers.

The 1st stop I would recommend is checking out wordpress.org/themes where you can find thousands of themes.

However, if you don’t want to spend all day looking through their directory then check out Softwarefindr a platform were forum owners using bbPress give a shortlist of their recommended bbPress themes.

[Robin W]

ok, much of this will be your theme or standard bbpress

add this plugin and use it to style

bbp style pack

on registration, bbpress uses wordpress registration, so looks like that needs troubleshooting

[skiank]

Yes, now the only plugin available is a wordpress plugin.
But some times ago Tapatalk relased an official and supported bbPress plugin.

[Robin W]

As far as I know there is only a wordpress version

[Robin W]

bbpress will use your wordpress theme. If you want to style and add features use

bbp style pack

[Perrorist]

I should add that the site is using WordPress 4.9.1, bbPress 2.5.14, and bbp style pack 3.6.9, and bbPress Enable TinyMCE Visual Tab 1.0.1.

Hi,
Here are the ones that are tied to email/Buddypress/BBPress. I’m wondering–do new topic notifications work for approved topics on a clean BBPress install? I don’t think I can disable many plugins on this site since it’s getting a lot of traffic, but I could probably test it out on a different live site. I think it would have to be a live site or at least have an SMTP provider set up for the notification emails to go out.

Plugins
1. Buddypress

2. AsynCRONous bbPress Subscriptions (added because the default method of BCC’ing all subscribers created too many recipients for our SMTP provider)

3. bbP Toolkit

4. BP Profile Search

5. BBPress Moderation Tools (allows us to put all new topics into moderation, seems to use default BBPress actions for moderation)

6. Fix Forum Emails (fixes issue where HTML tags/entities show up in notification emails: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2865)

7. WordPress Mail Queue (queues/chunks all mail from wp_mail so we don’t go over SMTP provider limits)

8. Wordfence Security

[strike3]

When a new topic goes to moderation and is approved, some, but not all, of the regular new topic actions take place. One thing that does not seem to happen is sending out the new topic notification email. If possible, can the bbp_notify_forum_subscribers action be added when a forum topic is approved by a moderator (after checking to make sure notifications are enabled)? The new topic notifications are a great way to drive visitors to our forums, so this is turning into an issue on our site. The site owners want to be able to moderate most (or even all) of the new topics, but then no notification emails are sent out.

If this is something I should try to figure out on my own, please let me know and I’ll give it a shot. I didn’t want to mess with the bbpress core code since it would get overridden on the next update.

Thanks!

Matt

Is it a reason why my two previous topics have been overlooked and unanswered? Are you not familiar with the question or is this not a support forum for BBpress users?

I am having issues with BBpress search bar. It is showing results for my entire site, as opposed, to just forum material. Please advise if you are able. Thank you

I am using BBpress 2.5.14, WordPress 4.9.1 and here is a link to my site. throughunity.org

You can try “bbPress WP tweaks” https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-wp-tweaks/ plugin for adding forum sidebar. There you can select which wrapper to use for bbPress and which sidebar of your theme replace with bbpress sidebar. Try different wrappers to find one with sidebar because some themes do not have sidebar on page.php, which is in most cases default wrapper for bbpress.

[veppa]

Hello, you can use bbPress wp Tweaks plugin for adding forum sidebar to your wordpress. Try different wrappers and add some widgets to bbpress sidebar to make it work. Plugin can be found on wordpress https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-wp-tweaks/

I just installed wordpress and bbpress. I’ve been able to setup the forums, add users, and everything looks like it’s working fine except for two things. When I click on a user profile I get sent to a not found page. This same thing also happens when I try to edit a post. Can anyone provide guidance on what could be causing this problem? I’ve tried multiple different themes to see if it was an issue with the one I had chosen.

I installed this on a raspberry pi. It used a mariaDB on the backend and I believe php7

[Robin W]

sidebars are a nightmare since theme developers went away from the wordpress tradition of having standard files for each page type.

Many now just have a page.php file, which frequently calls functions and stops any easy solution to the problem of getting a bbpress sidebar.

So let’s start with what theme are you using?

I’ve now incorporated the code above into my bbp style pack

Did a new install of bbPress and when using the built in Forum Wide Search, when a user clicks “Search” it just brings our WordPress site’s homepage.

I read on a forum that having spaces in the Single Forum Slug for Search under settings can cause this issue, but the slug used is just the word “search” so that’s not the issue.

Anyone else having this problem?

I’m fairly new to WordPress so I’m not sure how to troubleshoot the search. Can anyone help?

I have a BBPress login/register widget on my site. People can sign up to receive my blog.

I would like to change the text that appears on the sign-up page so that it is a bit more personal.
How can I do this?

[sanam25]

I used All In One Migration tool to create a local version of a WordPress site I am working on.

I am using these versions:
WordPress 4.6.6
BuddyPress 2.7.0
bbPress 2.5.10

The forum comes up fine, but when I try to post in my local instance, it is not working. The post does not go to the database, and I don’t see any errors (even in debug mode) using the Enfold theme.

I tried with the Twenty Fourteen theme and I see an error when I submit a post that just says:
“ERROR: Are you sure you wanted to do that? ”

What does that mean? How can I debug this?

Thanks!

I searched a lot but didn’t get any. Can anyone please help me on the issue ?

Thanks.

Hi,
after the 4.9 WP update, the de_DE-formal language was not working correctly (https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/42574). In this time I switched to language setting “Deutsch”. I then started receiving complaints that some users couldn’t login to the forum. Yesterday I switched back to de_DE-formal, as they have fixed this issue and this in turn fixed the login issue. But I wanted to report this to you anyway.
Is there anything I should be doing in BBPress settings when i change the WP language settings? thx.
