I don’t know Loco Translate well, so try to ask on their support forum. The only thing I can say is that I have bbPress fully in English, in French and in Italian (on different sites) just by putting the whole WordPress into the correct language because bbPress is fully translated : https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/bbpress

Pascal.

@pcalexpc

If you switch your WordPress to Français in /wp-admin/options-general.php (Options > General), WordPress will download the French translation for bbPress automatically.

Hey,

I need a button to send a private message to a user. My thoughts:

I have here a function from Robin to show the first and lastname
add_action (‘bbp_theme_after_reply_author_details’, ‘rew_display_user_details’, 20);

function rew_display_user_details () {
$rew_id1=bbp_get_reply_author_id() ;
$rew_id2 = get_userdata( bbp_get_reply_author_id());
echo ‘<div class = “rew_display_user_details”>’ ;
echo $rew_id2->first_name ;
if ( bbp_is_user_keymaster() ) echo ‘ ‘.$rew_id2->last_name ;
echo ‘</div>’ ;
}

?>

I have the Plugin front end pm. In the documentation stand it is possible with that

User name pre-populate new message “To”

Where must a paste it in the function?

regards

Hi, I am trying to translate the frontend section of my forum, but I can only translate parts of it. Here’s a screenshot :

As you can see, I can translate the top sentence, but I cannot translate the form part. I even tried to manually edit the php files without success (reverted to default files after).

I am using Loco Translate for editing my translations and my wordpress language is correctly set because I can translate some parts. I also can see the sentences in the Loco Editor but event after changing them, they do not change in the frontend.

I hope I have given enough informations.

Thanks

Me again – same issue but slightly different scenario. The user above DID continue to have the same issues. The only way I was able to remedy it was to create a different WordPress user for her and she hasn’t had problems since.

Today, I got a message from another member. She can leave REPLIES, but cannot leave new topics. She has been in my forums for a year with no issues until now.

I cleared my site’s cache, she cleared her cache. So I did what I did last time – I created a new account for her in WordPress. Different user name, different email address. Under that new User, we STILL cannot get a new topic to post.

I’m at a loss trying to figure out what could possibly be going on – and not sure where to start to did in.

There’s been no profanity; I don’t think it has to do with Akismet.

Hello

I have only added style.css file with comment section and functions.php file with my_theme_enqueue_styles() function as it is advised in Codex (https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes). My website is not yet public, because I’m doing it for my customer and I don’t want to publish it before it is ready.

[lalit73545]

I am using bbpress forum plugins for my wordpress websites. so i just wanted to know how i can display all related post underneath the topic just like similar to word press blog post comment & reply. So you don’t have to click to another page to view the posts.

Hello

I installed bbPress on my website and added login sidebar to my forum page. It got working after some struggle. Then I had to create child theme for Twenty Sixteen theme. After that bbPress login sidebar moved to bottom of forum page. Can you give me some instructions how to get sidebar back to side of the page? Thanks!

I’m currently using WordPress 4.7.3 with Twenty Sixteen theme and bbPress 2.5.12.
My website is not yet public.

Hi

Bit of a beginner here so forgive me if I’m asking something which should be obvious!

I have installed BBpress on my wordpress site but when I click on the forums tab on the wordpress dashboard it seems the link is broken. It takes me to a “HTTP 500 error” default screen. I can click on “New forum” but not “All forums”. Similarly when you click on any of the forum links on the homepage, even those links appear broken as you don’t land on that forum. Even then, I get the same HTTP error. Any ideas?

[brettdarnesh]

Is there a way to add a list of topics users are subscribed to on a page so they can manage it?

I created a custom profile editor so they don’t go into the wordpress backend when users click on their forum gravatar seemed to be default on my installation. Or is there a front end profile editor I can use like in this forum (I can’t seem to find a plugin or anything for it)

I’m working an educational website that produces video content and uses a BBPress forum for discussion rather than the native WordPress comments. Here’s how it works:

I have a hook on wp_insert_post that creates a new BBPress topic when a new video post is created and saves this new topic_id to a _comment_topic_id meta field.

In my single-video.php template where the video is displayed, I’m using the BBPress [bbp-single-topic id=$topic_id] shortcode to display the topic thread and reply form for people to post comments.

All of this works great! I’m just having one problem – the “subscribe” feature of BBPress isn’t working when people post replies via the Video Single page. The reply is posted just fine, but subscribed users don’t receive a notification. If you’re not familiar – when a user subscribes to a thread, they receive an email whenever someone replies to the thread. This is still working fine when someone posts a reply via the actual Thread single page – it’s only a problem on the thread embedded via the shortcode on the Video single page.

I’ve tried digging into the core and I got so far as to discover that the bbp_new_reply action isn’t firing – BBPress uses a function called bbp_notify_topic_subscribers hooked into bbp_new_reply to send the notifications and that function isn’t running at all when a reply is made via the Video single page.

It seems that BBPress uses some hidden inputs to determine what actions to run after a reply has been submitted, but those seem to be included properly through the shortcode. These appear at the bottom of the Topic single form (that works properly);

    <input type="hidden" name="bbp_topic_id" id="bbp_topic_id" value="422573">
    <input type="hidden" name="bbp_reply_to" id="bbp_reply_to" value="0">
    <input type="hidden" name="action" id="bbp_post_action" value="bbp-new-reply">
    <input type="hidden" id="_wpnonce" name="_wpnonce" value="83ea236cd1">
    <input type="hidden" name="_wp_http_referer" value="/forums/topic/SLUG/">

And these appear at the bottom of the Video single form (that doesn’t)

    <input type="hidden" name="bbp_topic_id" id="bbp_topic_id" value="422573">
    <input type="hidden" name="bbp_reply_to" id="bbp_reply_to" value="0">
    <input type="hidden" name="action" id="bbp_post_action" value="bbp-new-reply">
    <input type="hidden" id="_wpnonce" name="_wpnonce" value="83ea236cd1">
    <input type="hidden" name="_wp_http_referer" value="/videos/SLUG/">

I’m at a loss for how to debug this issue further and could really use some help. BBPress has all kinds of page type/post type checks in the core that I’ve been ducking and weaving around, but this one has got me stumped. I suspect the problem is that SOMEWHERE it’s checking the post type of the current post, seeing it’s a video instead of a topic and bailing before the action runs, but I have no idea how or where to find that and how to patch around it.

Thanks!

Hello,

Sorry if I am bumping this old thread, but there’s already a thread open for this over wporg support forums at https://wordpress.org/support/topic/does-this-have-shortcode-can-use-this-in-wordpress-sidebar-as-form/. I left you a reply from there.

This is a clean install

Wordpress 4.7.3 – BBPress 2.5.12 – Buddypress 2.8.1

I have installed with Twentyseventeen theme and with BeTheme. Everything works fine except I have an problem and was hoping someone could help point me in the right direction to resolve an issue with the breadcrumbs.

When I am viewing the forums here is the breadcrumb string:

Home > Forums > “Forum name” > “Topic name”

That is exactly what I want. However, when I am viewing Buddypress pages, the breadcrumbs are:

Home > Forums > “Username”

I would prefer the breadcrumbs to be as follows:

Home > Members > “Username” when someone is viewing Buddypress pages.

Does anyone know how to achieve this????

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hmm, maybe I’m working with two wordpress installations.

[Robin W]

because bbpress uses the wordpress login, you can’t have two logins on the same domain.

So your best bet would be to say to people

use the ‘world’ login for everyone, but individuals swap to an individual login and only use that once they have been given an individual that is all they use.

[Robin W]

you could use my private groups plugin.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/

you would create two groups

1. called say all
2. called say individuals

you can then put all the forums as members of the individual group, but no forums would have the world group.

Then all individual users would be added to the individuals group.

Then anyone logging in with the world username would not see any forums, but when logging in as individuals they would see the forums.

[alexpreyer]

I have an WordPress site where we have one login for many visitors, because not everyone should see the content.
Inside this WordPress installation is also bbpress installation. There we want to have each user separetly logged in with his own username. Because many users will login in the WordPress site, but only a few will use the forum we choosed this way.
Is it possible to get a separate login for bbpress when already logged in WordPress?

Thanks all for your help

I want to convert my bbpress forum to wordpress type posts. There are older posts about plugins for this but seems like they are not working now.

So… I tried exporting the topics and (separately the) replies using the xml exporter. I did a search and replace on the whole file for types [topics] _topics_ and replaced with [post] and _post_
(well I think they were the replacements as afterwards I tried several others for the replies).

Anyway, this worked when importing the topics as posts into wordpress – I was very happy with that. Then I though it would be great if I could also get the topic replies converted to post comments. I tried several replacement tags (changing reply to comment, comments …) but the only one to get imported was changing [reply] to [post].
It imported but did not add as a thread of comments but each one as a new post “RE: Topic title”.

Is there any way I can use the export/import function to get my topics and replies over to a blog style post with comments?
Or a way of editing the xml file to import correctly and add the replies as comments to the original post?

I was almost there but fell at the last fence.

Hello,

I need 2 User Names which have the same capabilitys. I have try it with this:

add_filter( ‘bbp_get_dynamic_roles’, ‘ntwb_bbpress_custom_role_names’ );

function ntwb_bbpress_custom_role_names() {
return array(

// Participant
bbp_get_participant_role() => array(
‘name’ => ‘Standard User’,
‘capabilities’ => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() )
),

// Spectator
bbp_get_spectator_role() => array(
‘name’ => ‘–>Premium User<–‘,
‘capabilities’ => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() )
)
);
}

Now I can swith between “Standard User” and “Premium User” which is perfect, but he Premium User can not write any reply or other things. So they have not the same capaboility.

Have anybody an idea where the mistake is?

Which Member Plugin works good with WordPress and bbPress? All I try were not good 🙁

[Pascal Casier]

I have added it for now into my ‘bbP Toolkit’ plugin (v1.0.8) while waiting for https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3046 to be implemented.

Pascal.

[Pascal Casier]

You would somewhere have to create a WordPress user, get the ID and change the post_author of all ‘topic’ and ‘reply’ in the DB to this ID.

I did a quick search but did not find a plugin for that…

Pascal.
