wordpress version: 4.2.2
bbPress version: 2.5.7
Normally after activation of bbpress, I would be directed to a new page and 3 items (forums, topics, replies) would show up. The new website site I am currently working on (with X theme installed), however, doesn’t happen to do so. What happens is that right after I active the bbpress, it stays on the plugin page and says the plugin is activated. But there are no items showing up on left menu bar and also in the setting I do not find bbpress. All other plugins work well except for bbpress…

Its the themes CSS causing an issue with the input box for the topic title.

This custom CSS should do it.

#bbpress-forums input#bbp_topic_title {
	float: none;
	padding: none;
}

#bbpress-forums .bbp-form p {
	float: none;
	margin: 0;
}

Tell your themes support this too.

THere is some solutions that might work but not a 100% , you might need to test this out in a test site first.

The center should be a tinymce button either by default or by installing tinymce advanced.

Well, my issue isn’t really laying in the website itself with the way it looks or the coding. My issue is, a fight heated up between me and an administrator on my site. He demoted me from Keymaster, without my permission. We made up, but the best he could get me back to was Administrator, not Keymaster. Now, we have no keymaster on the site to access certain things needed. How can I make my account back up to Keymaster?

It is just the quicktags api from WordPress. You see the same button when entering the html mode when creating a blog post.

See if this post helps, it says tinymce but there is also quicktags code in there.

Add TinyMCE and Quicktags visual editors to WordPress comments form

you can also use the basic comment quicktags plugin

Hello, I was wondering if I can have the same toolbar that is on my bbpress comments section in my blog comments section? So users can bold, link add images for my blog comments etc… Im not sure if this is a bbpress question or a wordpress question. Thanks

[Robkk]

There might be a way. I think there are a couple of hooks to change the users forum role??

But if phpBB added/removed forum participation capabilities then you might need to hire a develop to create this for you.

If it was just a rank then you can use this. I am not sure if its the points system that changes the rank or posts made.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/mycred/

There might be another plugin that ranks by just post count though.

I have no idea what is causing this but I would like to get rid of the white, boxy forum navigator and keep the sleek one below it. Here are some pictures:

WordPress: 4.2.2
Theme: StoreFront 1.4.6
bbPress: 2.5.7
JetPack: 3.5.3

Any ideas would be great.

I believe this is because of DB differences between phpBB 3.0x and 3.1x.

Current import only supports phpBB 3.0x

I was able to get rid of the error messages by creating the columns it complains about.

Hello,

As the topic says, i’m having issues importing from an upgraded phpBB v2.x forum.

I have approximately 4200 users, 1900 topics and 4400 replies on a phpBB v2 platform. I was able to successfully upgrade to v3.0.x and v3.1.x. As far as the phpBB upgrade goes, everything works, including authentication.

I am now trying to import into bbPress. I’ve tried using version bbPress 2.5.7 and 2.5.5. I’ve also tried using the new patch file that supports phpBB 3.1. I’m running WordPress 4.2.2, but also tried with 4.2. All on fresh installs with bbPress as the only plugin installed and activated.

I can see the passwords in user_meta. But I can’t login. No error other than the password is incorrect.

Would anyone be able to help? Am I out of luck coming form version 2.x of phpBB? If i’m out of luck, is the “Lost your password?” link the only route to fix passwords?

Thanks!!

SD17.

Try

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

go to the logion tab, and you’ll see an option to add a profile link to the menu

[Robin W]

If you install

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

and go to the login tab, you can set a redirect page

Hello zewitchi,

I had to change Register URI and Lost Password URI in bbPress widget. This was because I had previously WordPress installed on local server.

[Anonymous User 14235950]

Hi,

I am setting up a deployment site using BackupBuddy and wanted to kind of start with a fresh install of WordPress rather than just move my entire site and all of the files over all at once. I have tested out a lot of plugins in the past and I am always a bit of a clean freak and a little paranoid about what files the old plugin left or things they configured, so settings up a new WordPress installation from scratch and just moving over the plugins and data I use would be ideal (I think) since this way would leave all the unused files and old stuff behind.

So basically BackupBuddy told me to contact each plugin author to make sure that all of the files I would need to transfer that their plugin uses are located in their plugin’s folder.

Is this true? If there are any files that your plugin uses that aren’t in your plugins folder, could you let me know where they are located so that I can configure BackupBuddy to send those as well?

Thanks

On the wordpress I know is that plug. However, this system wp-monalisa does not work; /

[zuxxac]

for WordPress are probably a free plug-ins

[dfwpress]

Hello,
Thank you for your answer.
Meanwhile I have found where the problem is. There were residual links in bbPress widget from my local WordPress installation which I had to change after transfer to server.
After that I have combined bbPress login widget with Clean Login plugin pages to avoid redirection to WordPress login page after user registration. This combination seems to works OK.
Regards

Thanks @Robkk

I have a couple more regarding registration and login. In both instances, how can I control the page the user goes to after successful login?

I am using WordPress 4.2.2 running Jupiter theme and using bbpress login shortcode on a page.
(currently it stays on same login page with a successful login message)

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I have these exact questions, so thank you Robin!

@robkk, great appreciate that. The plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-notify-nospam/ is much better and does exactly what I was after. It actually caught me out for a few days that moderators were not receiving anything. Very strange that feature would not be part of the core plugin as there is little point for a moderator if they are not being notified of topics and replies and so on.

I think having a moderator per forum is a smart way to set things up. Again its a shame this feature has been requested over 2 years now. I will keep an eye on it and hopefully with a little luck it arrives soon. Thanks again for your help.

[Robkk]

So I guess my question is how do the moderators only get notifications of new topics posted?

Use this.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-notify-nospam/

Also is there a way to assign a moderator specifically to a single forum and not the entire bbpress forum set so to speak?

Not Yet. It has gained more attention in the last two years.

Hello to everybody,

I am currently working on a BBPRESS installation. I have 2 diferent parts on my website : a Blog AND a Forum.

I have a parent page for all my forums called “Forums” So, in my main nav, I have 2 items : “Blog” and “Forums”.

When I click on “Forums” in the nav, I go to the parent page of all my forums. In the nav, the item “Forums” gets the following classes in the HTML :
.menu-item menu-item-type-post_type .menu-item-object-page .current-menu-item .page_item .page-item-20 .current_page_item menu-item-22

Now, when I click on one of my forums, “forum 1” for exemple, my item “Forums” in the nav gets the folowing classes :
.menu-item .menu-item-type-post_type .menu-item-object-page .menu-item-22

and the item “blog” get the classes :
.menu-item .menu-item-type-post_type .menu-item-object-page .menu-item-23 .current_page_parent

I mean that “forum 1” should be a child page of “Forums” ?
Instead, it seems to be a child element of the blog. Does anybody know how to fix this ?

I have the latest version of wordpress and bbpress, work locally with Mamp, using Twenty15 as a theme.

If somebody have a solution, it would be great, thanks for your attention.

Guillaume

Thanks for your kind answer and have a nice day
