I am looking to create a forum for our site and am looking for a plugin to use. We have an existing plugin that we use for our members-only login system (Membee) can your plugin be used with an existing login system? We are using WordPress 4.2.1 running Minimal theme that we have made some customizations to.

Hi!

i set up a gallery in media uploader, inserted it in a topic i have in bbpres forum…

the gallery not work, instead of show the thumbnail and the image, show the gallery code:

[gallery link="file" ids="535,536,537,538,539,540,541,542,543,544,545,546,547,548,549,550,551,552,553,554,555,556,557,558,559,560,561,562,563,564,565,566,567,568,569,570,571"]

the same code in article, pages etc, work just fine and visualize the gallery, only in bbpress pages seems to not work.

wordpress last version, bbpress last version.

In the php-template displaying the forums, I want to check if the current forum/topic/… displayed is below a certain bbpress subforum/category.

The purpose of this is to show different wordpress menus depending on if the user is looking at the english part or the german part of the forums.

My question is: Is there a php-code to handle this?

Like:

if (we are under the german category) display german menu; 
else display english menu;

Thanks! 🙂

For anyone using the Warp framework from yootheme I found the resolution to compatibility issue that I was having:

Copy all the files from the plugin core across to the theme folder as if you want to override every single one of them. The locations are explained here: https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/

That’s it – now bbPress works seamlessly with my warp7 based WordPress site!

I’m trying to add sortable columns into the backend using
add_filter('manage_reply_posts_columns' , 'custom function'); and
add_action( 'manage_reply_posts_custom_column' , 'custom function', 10, 2 );

I was able to add thes columns to ALL custom post types except replies/topics.

Are Replies/Topics somehow handled differently than other Custom Post Types in WordPress?
Is there a workaround/fix/patch that I can use to get this working?

Not mission critical, just curious and love learning how machines work:)

Thanks,
Chad

Something related to this that I wanted to do, ad because I finally found the answer I want to put it here for others to maybe find…

To remove the url link fro all author instances in bbPress but leave the author names intact you can put this in the child theme’s functions.php:

/* Remove link urls from forum author instances...
*/
add_filter( 'bbp_get_author_link', 'remove_author_links', 10, 2);
add_filter( 'bbp_get_reply_author_link', 'remove_author_links', 10, 2);
add_filter( 'bbp_get_topic_author_link', 'remove_author_links', 10, 2);
function remove_author_links($author_link, $args) {
$author_link = preg_replace(array('{<a[^>]*>}','{}'), array(" "), $author_link);
return $author_link;
}

It was found here: http://www.digitspeak.com/web/wordpress/remove-bbpress-forum-profile-url-link/#comment-440

there is a bug reported for BuddyPress Groups here that is being looked onto.

you can see the trac ticket here

@Fred_L I’m sorry but I prefer to not share the URL of the converted forum. I just can say that I converted a Joomla site with +6000 users (Community Builder), +15000 forum posts (kunena) and +3000 articles (joomla) to WordPress successfully using BuddyPress and bbPress. It was not a single click operation, specially importing users and profile data and keeping posts and articles assigned to its original author. Another important thing is that all passwords will be reseted, there is no way to keep passwords unchanged during the migration, so users must be noticed about that.

As if bbPress is a good final forum platform, you have the best example here in bbpress.org forums. In my experiencie, Joomla + kunena + CommunityBuilder require a lot of less resources that WordPress + BuddyPress + bbPress, but there are also a lot of advantages; also disadvantages; in general I’m happy with the migration but you will need to decide yourself considering your specific needs and context.

[Robkk]

are you clicking the edit topic menu item in the wordpress admin bar??

or the edit link on the topic??

or are you just editing a topic from the backend??

[Robkk]

i cant think of a way using that function.

only thing i can think of is putting a custom menu in html where your current menu is

or just put the login widget into your sidebar since it provides a link to the suers profile , by clcking their username.

you can also hire a developer to build something custom for you.

[comixfreak]

Wordpress 4.2.1 and bbPres 2.5.7

[Robkk]

what version of WordPress and bbPress are you using??

[Robkk]

only thing i can recommend really is backup your site a few times then perform an upgrade to the latest version to see if that fixes the issue.

also make sure you have the latest version of WordPress.

and that your theme is upgraded to the latest version with and make sure you follow these guides if theme compatibility just doesnt work anymore.

https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/

heres a guide for backing up your site
https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Backups

[Robkk]

a frontend option to allow the forums to be public in a private group seems kind of custom.

maybe consider posting a job and hire a developer to add this functionality for you.

if your using BuddyPress for Groups you can contact their forum for help too.

https://buddypress.org/support/

if you are using the bbPress – Private Groups plugin contact Robin on the plugins forum or on his personal site.

[Robkk]

not sure but maybe this plugin would help.

Photobucket still works when i tested it out.

here is an example image from Photobucket.

http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk238/traderbillonline/Misc/wordpress.jpg

you check the ombed settings for forums in settings > forums and see if you unticked automically insert media.

[Robkk]

hmm threaded reply specific notifications , any replies to the 1st level reply send notifications to that user sounds interesting.

Im not sure if bbPress really does this as i barely used the threaded replies feature.,but i think its only topics/forum subscriptions.

if you want you could hire a developer to make this for you.

post a job at http://jobs.wordpress.net/

i might make a trac ticket on this as a feature suggestion though.

@joymoleta

can you receive regular topic notifications??

Hi,
I’ve got these 3 errors, please give me a dummy guide as I’m a dumb. But I’m loving these 2 plugins though.

Hi –
My client has all his images on Photobucket. I’m building a new forum for him and he wants all his forum users to be able to paste the link from a photo sharing service (such as Photobucket and others) and have the forum topic automatically show the image.

Through researching this site, it looks like Photobucket is no longer supported in WordPress. Is there a workaround? In general, what should advice be for linking to images that are stored elsewhere?

Thanks –
Lara

Hey guys and gals

Hope all is well!

First off, thank you taking the time to help, it’s appreciated.

I’ve started to build a wordpress blog ( Fat Burner Depot ) It’s wordpress 4.2.1, if that helps.

I’ve seen a site where bbpress loads into a standard static wordpress page. Shouldn’t I be able to copy and paste the index code into the body of the page text? Just as long as the paths to the rest of bbpress files are right? Is there a better way to go about this?

Anyone can help me out?
Thank you!!

[Robkk]

Really appreciate the response, I get NOTHING from yootheme which is a bit sad 🙁

yeah ive seen quite a couple people not get support on their end for this common issue.

i had a user with the similar issue say that the first wp fix resolved the issue they had with the warp7 framework.

for now you can install this plugin and find the file your forums are using for bbPress.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/what-the-file/

then maybe copy that into a child theme and rename it to bbpress.php from it and remove any unwanted code.

this guide will help hopefully

https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/getting-started-in-modifying-the-main-bbpress-template/

you can also create an admin account for me so i can check out your theme files and see how to fix this. send the login details to my email.
