Yeah this could be bbPress subscriptions having the issue.

See if installing and using this plugin will help you out.

Thank you for all your amazing work on some really nice bbPress plugins…

I made a coupe requests, here: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/feature-request-385?replies=1#post-7594550 and here: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/feature-request-386?replies=1#post-7594604

Bonsoir leirof,

For the blue, if you want to make it yourself easy, go for bbP Toolkit (https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-toolkit/) to remove the breadcrumbs and other messages.

For the avatar, I will have a look later.

I can’t reproduce this behavior on bbPress 2.5.8 or trunk using the default WordPress themes. Topics and replies in private forums are listed. Are you using a custom theme? Are you running any plugins that effect user profiles? Are you running BuddyPress?

[Pascal Casier]

Ciao tomtower,

I have been looking around on your site but didn’t find anything so far…

The only thing I can advice is to deactivate all plugins (except bbPress), change to a standard theme and then see if it works.
Otherwise some users seem to be very happy with the search plugin : https://wordpress.org/plugins/search-everything/

Just one warning for your site: On page http://www.monsterbashpincab.com/forums/ you have the 2 search boxes, so people might not know which one to choose.

Hi,

This is to restrict a forum, not a category.
If you want to restrict a forum, I have it inside my plugin, just give it a try: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-toolkit/

This is the plugin, it is exactly what I am looking for … but I dont know if its safe to use since its has not been updated for over 2 years!

What is your advice ?

Thanks 🙂

Hi,

I have an ornery, but hopefully easy to solve problem. When I “create a new topic” in my BbPress forum it posts nicely, but then duplicates that post as the first reply. This makes it look like I posted the same information twice. This happens to every new post. It has been going on forever; I just got tired of it. I think it is a checkbox or something level issue. Does anyone have any ideas please?

Thanks in advance.

WordPress 4.2.5 running OneCommunity theme. Yes, this happens on all themes.

But isn’t that for the wordpress roles? Because that returns 0 users.

The roles I’m talking about are the ones you specify at the bottom of a profile page. Forum roles. Apologies if I wasn’t specific enough.

[Pascal Casier]

Ah ok,

Then how about:
$mykeymasters = get_users( array('role' => 'keymaster') );

[Pascal Casier]

Hi Rourke,

If you just want to list them in the backend, you could use https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-manage-subscriptions/

Hi,

Just to close it here in case somebody else would look for it, I have it implemented in bbP toolkit (https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-toolkit/). Still need to review Robkk last update, but for now it works.

Pascal.

[Pascal Casier]

Hi ChrissiLisa,

You would have to check with the support of that plugin, but from what I know the plugin uses the standard WordPress media library, so images are uploaded where wherever media library is set to do it.

Pascal.

[Pascal Casier]

@nmschaller,

In the end, did you manage to get most of the things done ? Just for your info, I see that some things you request are in my bbP Toolkit plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-toolkit/) already and some others (like securing profile page) will be in there soon.

Pascal.

Hi,

I just want to make you aware of an error thrown by WP Debug mode. Everything still works fine though.

Notice: bbp_setup_current_user was called incorrectly. The current user is being initialized without using $wp->init(). Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information. (This message was added in version 2.3.) in …\wp-includes\functions.php on line 3622

Hope that helps,

Ben

If you don’t want to add yourself all the functions for the breadcrum, you can find them also in my bbP Toolkit plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-toolkit/).

This is a known bug. This might be resolved in the next release of bbPress though.

There is a workaround listed in the ticket also.

A workaround is to select the topic(s) to restore and use Bulk Action to restore.

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2734

[Robkk]

I bet you just closed the topic as well and the color of the text is a gray color that is hard to see.

Use this CSS to fix that.

#bbpress-forums .status-closed,
#bbpress-forums .status-closed a {
	color: #aaa;
}

You do not have to use the bbPress shortcode for registration, you can use alternative plugins for frontend forms if you want.

Do users need to register with the forum first to see the content of a post?

bbPress by default has nothing that would hide the content of a topic post. It will make a whole topic hidden if the forum is private and the user is not logged in, and the topic and forum could also be hidden if it is a hidden forum.

If you want a menu item for registration you can create a custom link to the default WordPress registration form, or if you have another plugin that adds frontend forms you can link to that page if you want.

Question really is: how does a user of the educational material get to see the forum questions/posts?

It really depends on the LMS plugin you might be using with your bbPress forums really. By default though a sticky/closed post should be kind of visible, the gray is hard to see sometimes.

[Robkk]

Use a plugin like this to hide any bbPress pages if the user is not logged in. It hides the bbPress feeds too.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-members-only/

And you do not have to make a topic private if the forum is private. Make sure to make the forums private by going into Forums > All Forums and editing them from there.

Edit: Just saw I pasted the wrong url haha sorry
