One of the webmasters for our organization set bbPress to handle the blog comments and disabled wordpress comments. I want to change it back and use bbPress as a separate forum and not the Blog comments. Can I switch it back without losing all the current replies/comments?

Thank you.

I was removing the BBPRESS plugin from my wordpress install, following these instructions:

Deleting bbPress

But after I deleted, the screen locked up, and now my website will not load.

Please try http://www.kambocleanse.com

Can anybody help me – can pay $$$ to get my site back up.

Thanks

Hi!

Im using buddypress and wordpress in general with bbPress. I want to know if somebody knows a way to give ALL forums a set of default topics. So for every new buddypress group if there is a new forum they already have a basic set of topics. Anyone know how to achieve this without setting it up yourself everytime a new group is added or a new forum is being created.

Wordpress version: 4.8.1
BBPress version: 2.5.13-6410.
Theme: Vantage
Toolbar is missing in bbpress for new posts and comments when using MSIE version 11.0.9600 but it is visible with Chrome.

Any ideas. Thanks.

Am I not tagging this right? Heeeelp. I want to build my site with wordpress+bbpress but if I can’t get this answer I’ll need to find another solution.

Hello all, I’m using WordPress 8.0 and bbPress2.5.13.

I have added this function to add the visual tab to the editor:

function enable_visual_editor( $args = array() ) {
    $args['tinymce'] = true;
    return $args;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args', 'enable_visual_editor' );

When I signed in as admin is everything OK, the editor tab is selected by default and I can start to type. However, when I do as a participant no tabs are selected and I have to select one of them in order to start to type. This is not intuitive at all for participants that want to write a post in the forum and eventually they will leave.

Why is happening that? Can anyone give me support? Thank you in advance 🙂

Hi,
I’m developing a site for a client (Worpdress 4.8.1) and I’m using bbPress 2.6-beta-2 to handle forums. The client’s main administrative account uses the WordPress role “Editor” and the bbPress role “Keymaster.” I want my client to keep most of the Keymaster capabilities, but I want to remove the Forum Settings page from their admin dashboard menu. I’m wondering if this can be done with the hide_menu() function.
For native wordpress pages, the function looks something like this:
remove_submenu_page( ‘<filename>.php’, ‘<filename>.php’ );
Can this work with the bbPress Settings page, and if so, which filename should appear in the function?

Peace,
Angela

I’d say this is an appropriate article on how to properly enqueue jQuery:

How to Properly Add jQuery Scripts to WordPress

Also, if you know what script is inserting itself above jQuery, and you have control over how it is enqueued, make sure you enqueue to the footer:

wp_enqueue_script( $handle, $src, $deps, $ver, $in_footer );

Make sure your ‘$in_footer’ is TRUE:

wp_enqueue_script('script-handle', plugins_url('js/script.js' , __FILE__ ),'','1.0',true);

Wordpress 4.8.1 bbpress 2.5.13
hello,
This is a multisite, site 1, admin is https://swissinformatics.org. bbpress is activated on https://magazine.swissinformatics.org. so bbpress sends mail to noreply@magazine.swissinformatics.org. WRONG, no mailer for this mail. In WordPress settings of the magazine subsite, the address is sidm@swissinformatics.org. noreply@swissinformatics.org also exists.
I looked everywhere in bbpres and wordpress settings. WHERE can I change this noreply address?
Thank you very much

[Robin W]

I’ve just released bbp style pack version 3.6.0

bbp style pack

if you go into

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>forum dispay and check item 5 Add “Create New Topic” link O(and change text if you wish)

it will add a link at the top and a form at the bottom.

Sorry – about to go on holiday so haven’t time to style this as a button !

I am now using WordPress 4.8 and a theme called Newspaper X, installed bbpress 2.5.13. As you can see in my website:

Home

http://tomorrowlan.gg/forums/

It displayed some texts and most of them are non-functional. I have tried to disable all plugins and stuff like that, still not working. It kind of worked when I tried some default theme. Is there a way to fix it? Thanks

not sure if this does that

GD Topic Polls – New plugin for bbPress on WordPress.org

if not would be worth contacting the author to see if he would add it

[Robin W]

bbpress has separate roles, so if for the wordpress roles you set the user to ‘no role for this site’ and for bbpress you set as say ‘participant’ then it should work, but you will need to test as I don’t know your site’s exact configuration

[Milan Petrovic]

GD Topic Polls is a plugin for WordPress and bbPress, and it works with bbPress topics. Users can create polls for new topics, or add a poll to existing topics. Each topic can have one poll.

More information and download is available on WordPress.org:

GD Topic Polls

Pro version of the plugin is available on Dev4Press:

Is the following feature available in 2.6?

Blog Forum Cross-posting Feature, where the comments on particular blog post will also be posted as Forum Replies.

I am aware of this plugin BBPress Topics for Posts :

The problem with this plugin is it won’t allow further comments to be posted. It replaces the comments section with a link to discussion where all the comments are moved to the forum.

I want the comments to be enabled so a user with no time can just leave a comment and go.

I read this feature is going to be part of core BBPress 2.6. Could somebody confirm on this?

Regards
Gana

Hello,

if i start using bbPress i cannot acces to any Profile-site, not even the bbPress-profile site. I already tried to deactivate all plugins, but still the same: this page doesnt seem to exist. if i try to acces my ‘Ultimate Member’ profile site it gave me an redirection loop. I already tried another theme if bbPress would work with that, but no, still same (i used a standard theme of WordPress)
-was usein wordpress 4.8
-with WordPress 4.7 still same

1.

I’m wanting to move the Edit/Move/Split/Post bar down

create a directory on your theme called ‘bbpress’
ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

find
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php
Make a copy of this file, and put in in the directory called bbpress that you created above, so you end up with
wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/bbpress/loop-single-forum.php
bbPress will now use this template instead of the original
and you can amend this

then around line 29

<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_before_reply_admin_links' ); ?>

		<?php bbp_reply_admin_links(); ?>

		<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_admin_links' ); ?>

this is the bit you are wanting to move.

2.

Is there a way to have the join date underneath their photo beside the post?

yes it can be done, but would need some coding.

Same template, around line 57 you’ll find

<?php do_action( 'bbp_theme_after_reply_author_details' ); ?>

That’s where you want to add the join date, either as a hook to the action above, or as additional code.

I suspect you’ll want to pick up the date from the wp_posts table user_registered field.

using bbp_get_reply_author_id() should get you the user, and

https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_userdata

should give you how to use it, with say

<?php $user_info = get_userdata(bbp_get_reply_author_id() );
      $registered = $user_info->user_registered;
      echo $registered?>

probably being close to what you want, but you’ll probably need to do some date stuff to display how you want

https://www.w3schools.com/php/php_ref_date.asp but possibly a strtotime() function

Hopefully that’s enough to get you somewhere !!

– WordPress Version: 4.8
– bbPress Version: 2.5.13

– I’m wanting to move the Edit/Move/Split/Post bar down below the content of the post, and was wondering what theme template I would need to modify for that.

– Is there a way to have the join date underneath their photo beside the post? We’re wanting to move the post date over to the main box, and have the author’s join date where that was.

I know you all don’t do custom work, so we’re just looking into being pointed in the right direction.

Thank you for your time!
