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

[Robin W]

ok, so try

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

and go to

dashboars>settings>bbp style pack>forum templates to get one that is closer to what you want

and use

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

to have private groups

I also have this problem and am running the current versions of WordPress and bbPress. Is there a fix for this yet? Thank you!

I’m currently working on a project for a client who wants to have the latest reply from any topic in a forum show up on the main bbpress page under the forum name. Is there a way to get this reply from the database using either built in functions or a wp_query. I also need to show the persons avatar, name, and when it was posted. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Dev site is at http://realestateinvesting.how/topics/. I can’t tell you exactly what version of bbpress they are using as the client hired a developer before me who hid the plugins unless your at a user level higher than admin. WordPress version is 4.5

@Robkk any thoughts?

So I made a clean install of WordPress and bbPress (and then after a few test posts I installed buddypress which didn’t change anything) and made 2 users. When I @mention a user in the forum it links correctly regardless of how many spaces I enter. HOWEVER, it does always strip the leading spaces down to 1 in the presentation of the post. If I click Edit on the post the original number of spaces can be seen. Is this intended behavior?

I’m going to make the changes to functions.php to enable the visual editor and to enable buddypress @mention suggestions in bbPress visual editor (like my production site) and see if the error reproduces.

Hello, I Installed wordpress correctly with an mySQL, installed a theme, then installed bbPress. When I click on Forums, I see they exist in the control panel, but when I visit the pages, they just don’t exist. My theme comes with a Basket because it comes with a market, and even the URL/Basket is missing. I’m not sure what is going on as I am new to WordPress. This site is keeping me afloat so any help i really appreciate.

Hi,

New to bbPress and finding it great to work with.

I have an issue though – on forum listings all topics get the wp-sticky class regardless of whether or not they’re sticky. This is the same whether or not there are any sticky topics in a forum.

Is this is a bug or am I missing something?

WordPress 4.6.1 / bbPress 2.5.11

[Daethian]

Something has gone wonky and suddenly none of the original posts in my topics are visible. You can see all of the replies and make a reply.

bbPress 2.5.10-6063

I’m running the latest version of WordPress and Buddypress.

Hello everyone,

I have a lot BBpress related questions that i can’t find a good answer to. Is there someone that has some good experience in customizing and setting up BBpress who has Skype and is willing to help me trough Skype?

The answers i am looking for are related to these subjects.

*When user account is created, user logs in but when button log in is clicked, page refreshes and doesn’t show logged in account information. The same screen as when not logged in.

*When the user finally gets logged in there is a wordpress menu on top, how to delete this? (atleast on mobile we’ve seen it)

*We want a different page for the user that already has an account or for the new users that aren’t already logged in (forum page).

*BBpress sidebar is not showing up, tried many different things. Adding code manually, installed plugins etc. Only the main theme sidebar is showing.

*Breadcrumb path is displaying forums twice. We did some php code to hide the homepage but don’t know how to hide these double words.

Help would be really appreciated. If there is no way around i am willing to pay a small fee.

Thomas

WordPress 4.6.1 running Avada theme, bbPress 2.5.10, and Userpro plugin

Using bbPress forum with UserPro plugin to manage users. You need to be logged in to view forum so “Restricted Content / Members Only You cannot view this content because It is available to members only. Please Login or Register to view this area” message appears when you click on forum when not signed in. After clicking on Login, I sign in and the forum appears, but it still has the same Restricted Content message above the forum. The support team at UserPro said “Can you please try contacting to bbPress and ask them about how the private groups and forums are created in their plugin, as they will be the best to understand the structure and functionalities of the plugin.”
Site is http://www.numoa.com
Thanks for your help.

[Robin W]

you can add roles and/or change their names – see

Custom Capabilities

The following in an example that both adds new roles and changes the names of existing.

/* bbPress Custom Roles */
function add_custom_role( $bbp_roles ) {
 

$bbp_roles['my_custom_role2'] = array(
'name' => 'Craftsman',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() ) // the same capabilities as participants
);
$bbp_roles['my_custom_role3'] = array(
'name' => 'Journeyman',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() ) // the same capabilities as participants
);
$bbp_roles['my_custom_role4'] = array(
'name' => 'Adept',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() ) // the same capabilities as participants
);
$bbp_roles['my_custom_role5'] = array(
'name' => 'Artisan',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_moderator_role() ) // the same capabilities as keymaster
);
$moderator = bbp_get_moderator_role() ;
$bbp_roles[$moderator] = array(
'name' => 'Councilman',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_moderator_role() ) // the same capabilities as moderator);
$keymaster = bbp_get_keymaster_role() ;
$bbp_roles[$keymaster] = array(
'name' => 'Advisor',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_keymaster_role() ) // the same capabilities as keymaster
);
$apprentice = bbp_get_participant_role() ;
$bbp_roles[$apprentice] = array(
'name' => 'Apprentice',
'capabilities' => bbp_get_caps_for_role( bbp_get_participant_role() ) // the same capabilities as participants
);
return $bbp_roles;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_get_dynamic_roles', 'add_custom_role', 1 );

you can limit access to forums byh changing their visibility

Public – Anyone can see these forums
Private – Only logged in registered users with a forum role can see these forums
Hidden: Only Moderators/keymasters can see these forums

or if you want more control by using :
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/

[wafadul]

by default, Private Forums and topics can be viewed by logged in users. Hidden Forums and topics are only for Admins.

but in my forum, Private Forums and topics can only be seen by admins. when a user enters a private forum, he/she can’t see the topics.

what’s with this behaviour? is this a bug? this is a very basic feature how come it’s not functioning properly?

i have the latest versions of wordpress and bbpress, and have tried it with the default themes.

Hello

My configuration is:

wordpress 4.6.1
bbpress 2.6 alpha

phpbb 3.1.8 with:
146477 messages
3207 topics
860 users

Server configuration:
MySQL(i) 5.6.23-cll-lve
PHP 5.6.27

When i do the migration from phpbb to wordpress, and i have done this several times, some users stay as anonymous, and are not the same users, is random, this after run the repair tolls one by one.

There is another problem with the repair tool “Recalculate the position of each reply”, it gives several errors like “Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /home/aquaforu/public_html/wp/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 2276” or “Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /home/aquaforu/public_html/wp/wp-includes/wp-db.php on line 1832”

But if i run this tool several times at the end it says “Recalculating reply menu order … No reply positions to recalculate!”

Thanks

Hi there,
I’m using KLEO theme, and my site is paperscrappers.pt,
I’m using: wordpress 4.6.1; buddypress: 2.7.1 e bbpress: 2.5.10

[angeljs]

I’m not sure if this is the correct place to post this, but it seems that a lot of people have been looking for a lightbox plugin that works with bbPress, too. The only one I’ve found that does, is Huge IT Lightbox:
https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/lightbox/

[Robin W]

Use this plugin

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

and go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>freshness display and select what you want

[lalas]

Hi there,

I have “bbpress private groups” and “Paid Memberships Pro – bbPress Add On” installed on my WP site and have 4 memberships levels (Modul 1 – Modul 4) and 4 forums and 4 private groups — Modul 1 for group 1 with access to forum 1. I would like to show all forums to all logged in users and show the membership pro message for group forum restriction if applicable.

The problem is: it only works with user role “keymaster” or when I deactivate “bbpress private groups”. Deactivating “bbpress private groups” doesn’t seem to be a problem, except that I would also like to restrict who can post new topics (Admin only.)

Is there a way to achieve both?

Thanks so much!

Kat

PS. WordPress version is 4.6.1 and I have installed multisite

[Robin W]

You should see no perceivable impact from this plugin, but you can always check by using a tool such as https://tools.pingdom.com/

on format – if you want further options then use my style pack plugin instead which gives you these options – see the freshness Display tab

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

[Fuskeduske]

Hi Division123,

You could use something like this maybe?: https://da.wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/

-Fuskeren

[Fuskeduske]

Hi Sam,

I sadly do not know the plugin, but you might be able to set up a redirect from your 404 page that goes directly to the login page, this will however also affect if people try to access a ressource on your website that does not exist.

I know https://da.wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/ have the functionality of redirecting to the login page on restricted content.

Hi,

I’m trying to re-do a site.
Now the new site is using the latest version of WordPress (4.6.1) and bbPress also the latest version (2.5.10)
The previous site is using WordPress 4.5 version with the latest version of bbPress.

I exported my old forum, topics and replies and imported those data into the new site.
When I click on the forum, I got this messages, below:
This forum contains 6 topics and 55 replies, and was last updated by xxx 1 month, 2 weeks ago.
Oh bother! No topics were found here!

I also tried to disable all the plugin, switched to default themes and used this little plugin – http://www.rewweb.co.uk/bbpress-wp4-fix/. But it doesn’t work at all.

Is this plugin compatible with the latest version of WordPress?
Does anyone have the same issue? Any solution for this issue?
Can share with me how to solve this issue?

Regards,
CL

[Fuskeduske]

Hi Milan,

I would look at some SEO plugins, i am not sure exactly which are compatible with bbpress but you can try in here: https://bbpress.org/plugins

Seems like this might have the functionality you’re looking for:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpsso/

[gerhardjvr]

I have the same issue… Immediately after I try to activate the bbPress pluging, I’m redirected to a page the says “Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page.”. I have to use the browser’s ‘back’ button to get back to the WordPress dashboard.

When I check in ‘Users’, I notice that I (Administrator) now has a new credential ‘Administrator, Keymaster’ and there is now a new column, called ‘Forum’, where the new role ‘Keymaster’ has also been assigned to me.

However, I do not see the ‘Forum’ item anywhere in the sidebar or top bar, nor in the Settings or Tools items.

What’s up?
