Hi everyone loving bbpress and just had some questions. How do I export just my forums? I know the normal wordpress port allows me to export all my pages etc, and I can choose individual items, but I can’t choose say replies and forums.

Is there a plugin or some other function that will let me export all forum related data and users only? The reason I ask is because I have a running site, and I have a test version of the site with working forums. I want to put the working forums into the actual site, without overwriting existing content

Thanks
Rodolfo

So, it appears that bbPress on my site does not like the word “fuck” or any of its derivatives. When users try to post a topic or reply containing this word, after submitting, they see “ERROR: your reply cannot be created at this time.” My account, the keymaster, is able to make posts with this word. If I give other users a keymaster forum role, then they may also make posts with this word. No other roles (not even moderator) can make posts with the word. This is all independent of the users’ site roles. All other forms of profanity, no matter how strange and distasteful, seem to pose no problem. How can I fix this and allow my users to use the word “fuck” to their hearts’ content? I have already tried everything on the bbPress troubleshooting site. I have no words listed in the ‘Comment Moderation’ and ‘Comment Blacklist’ boxes in the WordPress discussion settings, and the maximum rating is set to X. All forum topics on my site are private.

Info:
WordPress v4.52
Theme: SiteOrigin North
bbPress v2.59

Hello I have a website which relies on user roles such as administrator to show certain content. I have installed BBPress which seems to break my user roles for example all Administrators become Keymasters also which is fine but if I run a query such as the code below it evaluates to false.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

<?php
         if (is_user_logged_in() ) { 

         $user_ID = get_current_user_id();
         $user_info = get_userdata($user_ID);
         if(isset($user_info->roles) && implode(', ', $user_info->roles) == 'administrator') { ?>;
         <?php } >;

To see their edits you have to go to the edit post screen for the reply in the WordPress backend and then cycle through the revisions as you would any other regular WordPress post.

There is a trac ticket to make this easier, like being able to cycle through the post content history with ajax.

@soulkitchen

Can you link me to the exact patch you worked on??

@kineta

Create a ticket in the bbPress trac. Login using your WordPress.org/bbPress.org login credentials. Find any more bugs, please report them.

Yeah not having wp_footer(); will mess up the editor because the script is enqueued in the footer of your page.

[Robkk]

This is caused by some styles from your theme that is for WordPress comments reply link.

Add this custom CSS snippet to a custom css plugin or in a child themes style.css file

#bbpress-forums .reply {
  text-transform: inherit;
  font-family: inherit;
  font-size: inherit;
  letter-spacing: inherit;
}

There are lots of ways to achieve a login

Via Widgets – Dashboard>appearance>widgets
Via a login page – put this shortcode on a page [bbp-login]
or using say my plugin – https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/ Install the plugin and then Dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>login

[Robin W]

For the benefit of others…

1. use my style pack plugin

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

and go to the login tab

[Robin W]

try my private groups plugin

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

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.

Hi, I am using wordpress 4.5.2 and bbpress 2.5.9. I activated the bbpress plugin in dashboard and created a forum. But I got a blank page when I clicked the link to the forum. Then I found all other pages on the website become blank.

I removed the plugin then the website works again.

I suppose it is a template problem. But I don’t know how to fix it.

My website is http://www.rcaonline.ca . Does anyone know what the reason is and how to fix it?

Any help is appreciated.

Hello! I have on my wordpress admin one email, contato@vidroid.com.br , but I have other email that I like to use to mu forum: forums@vidroid.com.br . How I configure to send emails of bbPress’s forums by this email, not changing the principal email of my wordpress admin?

Thanks!

bbPress version : 2.5.9-6017.
WP version : 4.5.2

When creating a topic in the WordPress admin area, When I fill in the the the editor with some content for the initial reply/discussion of the topic nothing shows in the topic and it still displays there are 0 replies.

Any one have any ideas on to why this would not be outputting ? anything in forum settings ?

I have disabled all plugins and tried switching themes as well as create a new keymaster user with no luck.

i think this plugin will help you to hide the top bar https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-admin-no-show/ and about the size try this code

bbpress-forums .bbp-topic-content p,
bbpress-forums .bbp-reply-content p {

font-size: 12px; /* enter the size u want */

}

without seeing the site it is impossible to say

can only suggest

Here is the message I receive from a forum member:

i”ve been trying to post a response for days now… have tried many times to reply, but when I hit submit, nothing happens. Tried another forum topic, nothing is showing up. I’ve looked all over the site for any ways to get help…and hope i don’t need to start dealing with WordPress. I’ve also tried logging out, but it won’t let me do that either. I’ve checked in my profile to see if i could change anything. The whole thing just doesn’t seem to be working at all for me. Talk about frustration! I was SOOOOo looking forward to connecting with everyone on the forums.now the site won’t load for me at all. Can you help?

Another member reported a similar issue, so I’m guessing there are others who just didn’t bother to message me. I’ve already tried to disable Askimet and that didn’t work. I also had a member whitelisted by my host, which also didn’t make a difference.

Wondering if anyone’s had trouble with Paid MembershipsPro and bbPress together? Could that be it?

Hi all:

I’m using wordpress 4.5.; bbpress 2.5.9.
I learned that when user reply to a topic, their forum role display right next to their profile image. Is it anyway I can move the forum role beneath the profile image instead next to it?
Your help is greatly appreciated.

From the Popup Maker author, via https://wordpress.org/support/topic/issue-with-bbpress-plugin?replies=8#post-8381778

From the looks of that error it appears that bbPress is actually the culprit here. Looks like they are applying a filter to all queries of every post type, and for whatever reason the data they are looking for is empty. Basically they are missing what we call a sanity check (making sure data matches the type we expect. In this case calling in_array without making sure that the data is actually an array. Likely the error is common( not just with popup maker but potentially other custom post types), but your only seeing it because your site because you have WP_DEBUG enabled and WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY turned on. Without those on the error would be logged but page load just fine.

I have not seen this before, but am happy to investigate.

Is this an existing install of bbPress or a new one? IE Can I easily duplicate the problem simply by enabling both or could it be that you have 1000s of topics and replies which for whatever reason is leading to issues.

[jkuzma]

Finally found the culprit. Popup Maker appears to conflict, which was tough to locate because it wasn’t activate, then was activated.

I will create a support ticket with them (https://wordpress.org/plugins/popup-maker/) Thank you again for your help.

Greetings,

I made some languages tweaks in my bbpress-fr_FR.mo and bbpress-fr_FR.po files to make sure that when the forums are browse on mobile (portrait), then the strings ‘Participants‘ and ‘Articles‘ would not overlap (horizontally) each other. I translated those to short and sweet: ‘Voix‘ and ‘Posts‘

I used to edit the French language file with Loco Translator but now, for some reason I don’t understand, Trying to save the translation generates an “ERROR: Forbidden”

Also every time you upgrade bbpress language files and that I upgrade some plugins, the languages files are forced in and my French custom file gets overwritten. That is starting to be irritating. A chance I have a backup, but… this should not be the default behaviour. Isn’t it?

Please note, I found this “Error: Forbidden” problem with some other plugins where the .pot file had a missing language header.
