If i go to the forum page http://www.apis.de/forum (then log in) and click on one of the two latest posts then bbpress/wordpress logs me out. If i press Ctrl + F5 then it logs back in. This does not happen when i click on a different post within the topics, but only on the two latest posts.
Please advise

I’m looking for a plugin that will add a simple “like button” for topic replies, but am having no luck on that front without paying for a plugin. This one is the only one I’ve found that works, but the free version only allows 1 button per page. https://wordpress.org/plugins/likebtn-like-button/

Does anyone know of any other plugins that can accomplish this, or any other solutions involving bbpress customization?

[Robin W]

the code goes in your functions file

Functions files and child themes – explained !

If you are just after changing the name -then the style pack plugin will let you do this

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

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

WP 4.7, bbPress 2.6a http://wordpress-6213-13994-191680.cloudwaysapps.com/forums/

Having converted from PHPBB 3.1.10 and run all of the repair functions I am having a few issues with things not being correctly reported.
1. All of the voices counts are set zero.
2. Last activity is incorrect; http://wordpress-6213-13994-191680.cloudwaysapps.com/forums/forum/general-hysterectomy/alternatives-to-hysterectomy/ says forum last updated 4 months ago but topics show from just 2 months ago.

I had to use 2.6a to get the import from PHPBB; should I switch to 2.5.11 now?

Wordpress Version 4.7
bbPress Version 2.5.12

I’m very new to all of this and I just installed and activated bbpress. I’ve searched and I cannot find instructions for connecting a menu item I created “Discussion Forums” to the actual forums. I see that there are slugs and short codes in the settings menu of the dashboard, but I can’t figure out how to make it all work.

Please help. thanks

My WordPress version is 4.7
My website link is http://www.theparadigmshiftgroup.com
I have already searched for my question in bbPress support forum (where I am posting now), there are previous threads on this question but the plugin mentioned at that time is now unsupported now (bbPress like topics, last updated 2 years ago). Another thread on the same topic don’t have reply. So I decided to bring this matter into the attention of bbPress authors again. If bbPress already contains this feature, please let me know as well.

bbPress don’t have a voting up feature built in. So the topics get sorted by just last activity and not popularity. A forum seems incomplete without a voting option for topics and replies.

I tried different plugins for this feature. There are many plugins on voting but they are mostly for WordPress posts, not bbPress topics and replies. Some plugins are able to put a “Vote Up” option above the topic, but it doesn’t help the topics to get sorted based on it. Some plugins only shows “vote up” written and instead of a button. Moreover these plugins only can vote topics and not the replies.

Please also include a feature to show the number of votes besite the topic in feeds. Because people choose which topic to read in the feed page.

I always found this community very helpful. I am sure this issue will get noticed.

I have just updated to WordPress version 4.7 and bbPress version 2.5.12. I am a web developer creating a site for a client, so the work is only locally on my machine; however, I’ve added the appropriate function to the filter ‘bbp_verify_nonce_request_url’ so that it should be working appropriately (I had to do this to fix the problem that led to this new one). Now, every time I try to post a new topic through the front end (rather than via the WordPress dashboard), the above error appears (“ERROR: Your topic needs a title.”) despite the fact that I have submitted a title. Any help would be appreciated!

[inderdeepbajwa]

I have the latest 4.7 version of WordPress and installed the latest bbPress plugin (updated 4 days ago).

When I click on Forums->All forums, in the WP Dashboard, it shows me a full white blank page. Upon typing website.com/forums, it shows a blank page. The newly created forum link website.com/forums/forum/forum is also completely blank. I’ve tried this on two themes – Twenty Sixteen and Twenty Seventeen. Both showed blank page.

I tried creating a new page and pasting [bbp-forum-index] but that gave me the following code as the result:
{{ partial “head.html” . }}
{{ partial “header.html” . }} {{ partial “sidebar.html” . }} {{ partial “post/header-cover.html” . }}
{{ $paginator := .Paginate (where .Data.Pages “Type” “post”) }} {{ range $paginator.Pages }} {{ .Render “summary” }} {{ end }} {{ partial “pagination.html” . }}
{{ partial “footer.html” . }}
{{ partial “foot.html” . }}

Hi,

First, a quick description of the issue:
When using a bbPress Login Widget in combination with Jetpack and its Protect module activated, logging in via the widget will
1. redirect the user to a stand-alone math puzzle page which in turn (whether the puzzle was solved or failed) will
2. redirect to the normal wp-login.php page where the user will have to
3. fill out login credentials and solve another math puzzle again (!) and after submission, the user is
4. redirected to the dashboard instead of back to the original forum page.

So, besides the inconvenience of having to pass the same login credentials twice and solve two different math puzzles, the user will find himself searching for the page he came from, which defeats the whole idea of the login widget…

I found a way to make Jetpack Protect and the bbPress Login Widget work together (by allowing the math puzzle to be inserted directly into the login form in the sidebar) but looking for users to test it in different circumstances like hosting environments, caching plugins etc.

The pull request can be found on https://github.com/Automattic/jetpack/pull/5647

The fix is this:

Open the Jetpack file modules/protect.php for editing (can be done in the WordPress plugin editor) and change:
1. line 53 from

add_action( 'login_init', array ( $this, 'check_use_math' ) );

to

add_action( 'login_form', array ( $this, 'check_use_math' ) );

2. line 61 from

add_action( 'login_head', array ( $this, 'check_login_ability' ) );

to

add_action( 'login_form', array ( $this, 'check_login_ability' ), 0 );

(notice the added “,0” there at the end too!)

Next Save, activate Jetpack’s Protect module and add the bbPress Login Widget to your forum sidebar. Then visit your site in an anonymous browser window and test logging in via the widget.

Please share your experiences. Thanks !

bbpress Version 2.5.12
wordpress Version 4.6.1
TwentyThirteen-Child theme

You’ll see I don’t know what I’m doing here. What follows is what I tried.

I put the following into my 2013 child theme:
1. a folder titled “bbpress” which contained the following all copied from the bbpress plugin folder:
2. a folder titled “bbpress”
3. a folder titled “css”
4. a folder titled “extras”
5. a folder titled “js”
6. a file titled “bbpress-functions.php

I replaced the top of the bbpress.css file which was in the “css” folder with this:

 /*
Theme Name: bbpress bbpress-child
Theme URI: http://neighborsconnect/neighborsnation/wp-content/themes/twentythirteen-child/bbpress-child/
Description: bbpress-child theme for bbpress
Version: 1.0
Author: Bruce Wilson
Author URI: http://neighborsnation.org/
Template: bbpress-default
Tags: bbpress, bbpress-child
*/ 

Then I increased the font-size for the bbpress forums from 12 px to 20px and other such changes to see if it worked.

Surprise! Surprise! It didn’t work.

What do I need to do to make it work?

Did you go through the support topics ?

Having the problem that my Forum just isn’t showing up. It’s there in the meno on the admin, alongside everything else. But when I click on it, I just get the grey Chrome page saying “this page won’t load” or “work” or whatever, alongside “HTTP ERROR 500”. No idea what this is, starting to get annoyed. Everything is set up as it should be, but the forum won’t load. When I click on my homepage on the middle “Forums” button: Same story. Just a Chrome error screen, not even a 404 page.

What am I doing wrong?

[PWDEV66]

I recently updated WordPress and BBPress. Everything appeared to be in good shape last Friday but today the categories for the forum show on the main menu but the forum and all the related content are missing. I can see that the plugin is active but I do not see it in the WP admin. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

here should be a solution https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bbpress-votes/ (if you’re still here or to other bbpress users) .. it should be working, I’m still trying to make it work for my forum http://www.lustjobs.com/forums/ (voting works – trying to understand how to display karma on user profiles).

Hello, i have installed the plugin wp-post ratings

https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-postratings/installation/

I want to show the rating in bbpress.

Find: <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
Add Anywhere Below It (The Place You Want The Ratings To Show): <?php if(function_exists(‘the_ratings’)) { the_ratings(); } ?>

In which files, i have to add the php code?

Thanks a Lot!

Best Regards
Sally

Can you share your code for how you’re defining your custom roles please?

If you’d rather keep the code private you could join the #bbPress channel in Slack

This has already been fixed for the upcoming bbPress 2.6

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/6044

[Chad R. Schulz]

OK. Well after some harrowing attempts to rebuild from older versions of bbPress and WordPress I ended up reverting back to the most recent of both, 4.7 and 2.5.12, respectively.

And presto! Everything is now as it should be. WTF?!

Maybe something got fouled up in the DB conversion or I simply needed to kick something loose.

Anyway, nevermind.

Thanks.
