can be done

try

This would need some bespoke coding

whilst in the forums list a sub private forum will not show, if the sub forum is set to public, then searches would show as the forum it belongs to is private.

So set every forum that you wish to be private to Private

If you don’t want the word private to appear – and I hate it showing! – then you can add this to your functions file

add_filter('private_title_format', 'ntwb_remove_private_title');
function ntwb_remove_private_title($title) {
	return '%s';
}

or add my plugin which has this and many other features

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/

and set this to hide in
dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>forum display item 4

[Robin W]

The reply form has an element which says

Notify me of follow-up replies via email

By default this is unticked, so unless you tick it, you are unsubscribed from the topic.

So remembering to tick it makes sure you stay subscribed.

You can change this default to make it ticked by default by using

Reply Subscribed

or using my style pack plugin which has lots of other extras

Hey everyone! Guess what?

bbPress 2.6, Release Candidate 3, is now available for testing.

Download it from here: https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/bbpress.2.6-rc-3.zip

Why is this cool? For starters, @jeffr0 may finally climb down off my back and stop giving me grief for how long it’s been since we shipped a major release.

bbPress 2.5.0 in 2014, 3 years ago.

Most people wouldn’t be proud to say that, but… I am. The 2.5 branch of bbPress has been so stable & well received, we were able to take our time with 2.6 and double-down on upstream improvements to WordPress.

bbPress 2.6 will come with:

* Per-forum moderators
* Improved favorites & subscriptions management
* Improved BuddyPress integration
* Performance improvements across the board
* UX improvements to meta-boxes and admin-area tools
* Tighter integration with WordPress’s Dashboard
* Template tweaks & clean-up
* About 110 other things

If you’re going to test 2.6 on a live site, maybe don’t just yet. It runs a database upgrade routine to migrate favorites & subscriptions from usermeta to postmeta, and for large forums that may take a while or possibly lock things up for a bit.

We are already running 2.6 here and on bbPress.org, so enjoy the speedier new posting experience, and we’ll let you know when the next beta is ready!

Hi there @iprg,

Sorry, but there isn’t yet. It wouldn’t be too difficult for us to implement this feature inside of wp-admin, though.

Are you comfortable creating a feature request over at https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org? If so, that’s the best place to log this idea, and we’ll try and get it into a future release.

Hello,

Our topics are no longer being listed on our forum except for sticky topics I believe.

Top blue box says “This forum contains 32 topics and 24 replies, and was last updated by…” but it then only lists 3 topics “Viewing 3 topics – 1 through 3 (of 3 total)”

WordPress: 4.7.1
bbPress: 2.5.12
Theme: Salutation by Parallelus v3.0.2

Please help. Thank you.

[marnieg]

Wordpress: 4.7.1
bbPress: 2.5.12-6148
theme: Zippy Courses

I have a new bbPress forum and just recently lost the formatting options–there’s just an empty rectangle where the formatting buttons formerly were. Under Forums and then Settings I have several things checked that don’t seem to be available in the forum. For instance: “Add toolbar & buttons to textareas to help with HTML formatting” and “Embed media (YouTube, Twitter, Flickr, etc…) directly into topics and replies” are selected. But these aren’t available.

I would love any direction so I can add basic formatting functionality. I added Forum Beginner Posts plugin but that didn’t change anything so I uninstalled it.

WordPress 4.7 bbPress 2.5.12 http://members.thesoulscripts.com

There seems to be no way for admins or users to unsubscribe from email notifications when they are no longer Participant. After they stop paying to be a member of our site, their Participant role is removed. They should be removed from all email notifications as well at that point. Many angry people! Help!!

[Stephen Edgar]

@mth75 Sure, kind of like how BP’s profiles, if active, replace bbPress’ profiles we could possibly do something similar for BuddyPress favourites.

Create a ticket on Trac and if you can, take a stab at writing a patch maybe?

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/newticket

[Robin W]

ok, I’ve just loaded your code to my test site, and I can set a user to member and it holds

Suspect either theme or other plugins

bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes

It could be a theme or plugin issue

Plugins

Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

I cannot log in as an admin. My site is artintheblood.net. I should have the latest update of WordPress, but I cannot confirm because I cannot enter the site. Any advice you can offer is greatly appreciated.

[Robin W]

I suspect it could be done, but can you repost onto my bbp user ranking plugin website, and I’ll take a look

https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bbp-user-ranking

[Robin W]

As far as I can see that is down to the rest api, not bbpress – it does the same with posts ie not show author.

I suspect barry is way ahead of me in knowledge but these two links seem to show that you write api callbacks into your website and then add them to the api

Hi, I’ve been working on migrating my large Drupal site to WordPress. I’ve managed to do the majority of the site but now I’m stuck on the forum.

I’m using Drupal 6 and Advanced Forum, I have 26K topics and 700K replies.

I’ve tried running the script on a couple of different local machines, and on my VPS server where I’ve had the most success; the script does the 26K topics smoothly but then hangs pretty early in the replies, around the 700th row. Locally, it gets stuck before. Weird thing is that a couple of times I’ve left it running for longer, eventually it manages to go past that sticking point and just continues extremely slowly.

Also: I’ve read the troubleshooting instructions, which make sense but I don’t understand how to pinpoint the line numbers within the database, specifically these points:

• “Now drop all the rows in the database that are not in the range of rows that failed during import”
• “Once you have your list of offenders and the import has finished delete these rows from the database and test again to make sure it completes without hanging

So question #1: if I look at my database in phpMyAdmin for example, and I know the problem is in rows 700-799 of my replies, how do I locate these rows?

Question #2: Is there a way to know for sure if the problem is performance/memory related or if it’s an encoding issue in a specific row? I don’t know if I should be directing my efforts to solving performance issues or pinpointing problem rows.

And finally question #3: Does anybody here have experience with these issues and would be willing to be hired to do this migration? Contact me if you do please!

Thank you very much for any help you can provide 🙂

I have the exact same problem. I’ve struggled to find anyone else in my situation. It’s a clean installation of wordpress, and bbpress is the only plugin installed, NOTHING else is done at all. I’ve tried different themes (like twentyfifteen), but that doesn’t seem to be the troublemaker. I’m allowed to make a new forum, but the “all forums” page results in this error. I’m running it on a localhost mamp server.

Hello,

I am running bbPress v2.5.12 on WordPress 4.7 with a child theme I’ve developed based on Imaginem Themes’ Sentric Theme.

The problem:
In my child theme’s functions, I have added the following code to make two custom roles, Professional and Member, for my Q&A/”Ask the Expert”-style forum called “Ask a Professional.” Essentially, Members can make threads asking questions, but only screened Professionals have the ability to reply and provide answers.

I want everyone to automatically be assigned the Member role upon registration. Then I can manually “upgrade” their roles to Professional once they’ve been successfully screened. However, when a user registers and logs in, they inherit Member capabilities, but are not assigned the Member role. Manually selecting the user and assigning them the Member role doesn’t work; their role immediately reverts back to “— No role for these forums —”

When I select the user and manually assign the Participant role, the role “sticks” — meaning, it doesn’t revert back to “No Role.” However, the “Member” capabilities remain.

Does anyone know why this problem persists and how to fix it? This is the final thing that needs to be ironed out before my site goes live. 🙂 Thank you!

Troubleshooting:

1. I’ve tried to disable plugins and see if any of them are causing this issue. This hasn’t yielded any different results.
2. I’ve checked with the Twenty Sixteen and Twenty Seventeen theme.

[Robin W]

yet unbelievably there seems to be no-one who has a solution after all the years of BBpress being around.

I suspect that this is because it is the symptom of many problems.

bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes

I deleted bbpress via ftp, and re-installed it. It still wasn’t working, so I deleted bbpress, and I was able to log into WordPress. I found that 4 plugins, and one theme needed to be updated. So I updated everything, and re-installed bbpress. No more errors!
