Hi all,

Been googling and searching here and WordPress etc for days and no luck. Previous threads here showing plugins that no longer exist.

I’m looking to disable users from changing their display & nicknames on the forum so only their username is displayed.

Currently using bbPress with WP User Manager

[rf0854]

Please note that the text editor is now missing after updating to 2.5.9. Currently running wordpress 4.5.1

Any fixes available for this?

Hi im new to bbpress and have some questions to ask.

1) How do you hide the wordpress top bar for subscribers, subscribers dont need to use the top bar to access to the forum. I dont wish users to know that they are using a wordpress website.

2) How do you increase the size of the font for the main forum? The description of the sub forums are too small, would love to change the font type and its size.

When you go to edit a topic or reply what filter is used to render the content in the editor.

The issue I’m having is I have markdown support for the forum instead of the normal code button.

So I use three back ticks at the beginning and end for code blocks. It works fine until you go to edit. Something is stripping out 2 of the back ticks on the code block.

I figure its a filter, but I can’t figure out which one.

bbPres v2.5.9
WordPress v4.5.1

Found the cause. I’m posting to o-norge.no/ and the i get redirected to the site url o-norge.no/wordpress/forum, and then the POSt is gone

HI. I have the following structure:

– Private Group
– – Private Forum Category
– – – Private Forum
– – – Private Forum
– – – Private Forum

So, a private group that has a forum. The top level forum is of type category, then the child forums are all private forums.

If a user that is not a member visits the Group or Forum Category they cannot see anything and are shown the option to request membership.

But if they go directly to the child forum they can access it and post. Even though they are not a member of the group.

I have the latest versions of WordPress, BuddyPress and bbPress as at today.

I just ran 2 forum repairs:
– Recalculate private and hidden forums
– Repair BuddyPress Group Forum relationships

and now I have a another problem. I’ve actually been experiencing this problem on and off now for about 2 weeks and I’m starting to pull my hair out!

So now if I go to the forum list (at the category level) I can see that there are topics in the child forums. But when I click through to the child forum it tells me “Oh bother! No topics were found here!” This is for a group that the user is a member of. There are definitely topics in that forum.

If I change the user from a Participant to a Moderator they can see the topics.

If I change them back to a Participant and then toggle the forum from private to public to private they can see the topics again. I have done this toggling of forum visibility several times over the past week and it only lasts for a day or two, then I’m back at this problem.

Further testing:
– I’ve changed to TwentyFifteen theme
– deactivated all plugins except for BuddyPress and bbPress

I still can’t see topics that the user should be able to see. And they can access a private forum they aren’t a member of.

Where do I even begin to figure out what is going wrong with this site? Thank you!

PS I have logged this in trac: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2947

This is just what I need for the project I’m working on. I have the same question about how to do this without hacking the core files. Any guidance for a wordpress/bbpress beginner?

[David Tierney]

Yes, if a functions file exists, you would copy and past it there, anywhere before the closing php tag if there is one at the end of the functions file. You should see bunches of code in your functions.php file so you do not want to break up any group of code, just like the group above needs to be together with itself as he wrote it.

IF you do not have a functions.php file in your child theme, you can create one. Read up here to learn more. https://codex.wordpress.org/Functions_File_Explained

Thanks! 🙂 I figured it’d been a while since I last posted so who knows? Maybe something would have popped up in your head 😀

I actually started it off in a totally clean wordpress this time around so I know that’s not the bottleneck. It really does just seem to take this long – I setup a new logging mechanism to watch the rate of insert statements and the highest I got it to with tweaking was ~6.7 p/s with 3500 posts and 0 seconds wait between.

It’s really quite odd because as far as I can see, it basically changes the posts to WP posts and populates the post metadata. It checks to see if this is a sticky etc and that’s about it. I’m wondering if a purely SQL based approach would work or if that’s too complex.

I am assessing installing this for a client and am new to bbpress, but have 9 years with WordPress.

What default user profile fields come with the basic single site installation of bbpress, and how customizable are they.

Specifically, my clients wants to have name, company and a question answered (i.e. why are you here). And no other fields other than what is desired.

And are their options to require fields if so desired?

And as a side question: Is there any recommendation or advice on whether to install this in a client’s existing website or duplicate their theme and install that theme with WordPress and bbpress on a subdomain and have the forum there?

Thanks so much,

David

Anyone know about this?

During regular research audits of our Sucuri Firewall, we discovered a Stored XSS vulnerability affecting the bbPress plugin for WordPress, currently installed on 300,000 live websites, one of them being the popular wordpress.org support forum.

Exploitation Level: Easy/Remote
DREAD Score: 6/10
Vulnerability: Stored XSS
Patched Version: bbPress 2.5.9
As a Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability, it could allow this user to hijack other user accounts, perform actions on their behalf (like administrators, moderators, etc.) to escalate its user’s privileges.

Now I had many plugins going but shut Every single one down except bbpress/buddypress. Even required theme plugins. Ive even deleted 90% of them and still cant fix the issue…

I know this is not my ‘support’ Im just at wits end and cant fix it, Im reaching out hoping someone can help… I can pay. We have 200+ members, while not a lot its a lot for us as we are so new.

I’m trying to limit the permissions to assign topic tags to just ‘keymasters’ through the bbp_get_caps_for_role filter.

This is working, participants can’t see or edit the tag input field

if ( $role == ‘bbp_participant’ ) {
$caps[‘assign_topic_tags’] = false;
}

but the moderator level is ignored and not working:

if ( $role == ‘bbp_moderator’ ) {
$caps[‘assign_topic_tags’] = false;
}

I’m a newbie to wordpress development & php. Any insight or advice would be much appreciated. Thanks.

which on the login tab lets you have a ‘register’menu item

Hi there Kelly,

I’m the developer of WP-SpamShield. I’m sorry to hear about the issue you’re having and I’ll be happy to help.

That sounds like you have a some type of conflict that is more specific to your site setup or configuration. We have a lot of users on bbPress, and most are having no issues. (We do a lot of testing to ensure compatibility.) So, there shouldn’t be any generalized conflicts with bbPress.

We have put together some excellent troubleshooting options for our plugin users, including FAQs, a Troubleshooting Guide, Known Conflicts page, and Support Request page.

Please take a few minutes to work through the Troubleshooting Guide and FAQs, as these solve over 90% of issues users have.

One of the things that the Troubleshooting Guide and FAQs will ask you to do is turn on logging. When logging is enabled, anything the plugin blocks will be logged. If you feel that there is a conflict, and something is being blocked that shouldn’t be, you can test it out after you enable logging. If it doesn’t show up in the log, then that tells you that something other than the plugin is blocking it.

If the information provided doesn’t solve the issue for you, we’ll need a bit more info from you on the specifics, and we’ll need to email back and forth, so please head over to the WP-SpamShield Support Form, and take a moment to fill out a support request. That will allow us to help you diagnose this, find out what the real issue is, and get things working right for you. (If the issue does by chance turn out to be a bug in the plugin, we always try to fix those within 24 hours, and get a new version out with the fix.)

Please note that the WP-SpamShield Support page is our main support venue, not the WordPress or bbPress forums here, so that will always be the best way to get a quick response and resolve any tech support issues.

@janeakshar if you don’t mind, could you contact me through email and send me login details so I could see what could be causing this issue on your site.

@bwarntzen

Okay definitely not just CSS.

So any new simple text post will not submit in the frontend of your site in a topic?? If a participant say had the the link limit you set in Settings > Disscussion their post would have the status pending which won’t show up regularly in the topic list of a forum.

It could be a possible tricky caching issue.

If you do not mind, you can contact me through email, and give me login details of a participant user so I could test out what is the issue.

It probably needs an update, I’m pretty sure its the same one I worked on but just cannot find right this second 😉

Grab me a link to it and post it here, also make sure your database you want to import from is on the same database server you are using for WordPress, doesn’t have to be the same database, just the same MySQL server.

[Stephen Edgar]

This seems to be after 24-36 hours of run time, so I am not sure if I am running across some sort of session expiration or what.

Yes, that is exactly what you are coming up against, on the technical side, its WordPress dropping the MySQL session, the work around is to every few,4,6,8,12 hours even is to open a new browser tab and refresh a WordPress admin page and that should stop those ------

Is it possible to re-run an import, picking off where it left off?

It’s supposed to, there’s some improvements here coming in bbPress 2.6, I also strongly suggest using 2.6-alpha available from https://bbpress.org/download, there will be no more import changes before 2.6 ships and there are vast improvements to importing in 2.6.

Give it a try and let me know it goes 🙂
