I think it’s bbpress, actually. I have wordpress set to give new users only Subscriber level access, which is fine. when somebody registers for the forum through bbpress, they are given administrator level access. If i register a new user outside of bbpress, they get Subscriber.

@madvibes

its not bbPress its a WordPress thing.

you can deactivate your bbPress then switch to a user that is a subscriber then see if you can reach the WordPress Backend.

usually if the role is not admin it wont show plugin settings , theme/plugin editor , or anything they shouldn’t touch. they should only edit their profile.

but like i said if the subscriber user has admin capabilities , thats a real issue.

[madvibes]

Thanks, i’ll look into that. BUT *why* would BBpress give a newly registered forum user admin-level access to wordpress. it makes NO sense at all.

[Robkk]

@madvibes

this plugin might help, subscribers and other roles usually can edit their profile in the wordpress backend, its not just for admins/authors/editors its just most users like it this way.

but if you do have it where your users register than have admin capabilities then go post a job at the link Robin provided.

@awpt

create an admin user for me so i can see whats causing the issue, and send the login details to my email.

Contact

[Robkk]

email me some login details for an admin account you will create , so i can see the plugins and try to see what plugins might cause the issue.

im not going to deactivate any, i just really want to see the whole plugin list so you dont have to write it down here for me.

when im done , ill tell you to delete the admin account you created for me.

Hi,

Im using a bespoke WordPress theme for my site which ive created myself.

Ive fully customized BBpress & put the theme inside my WP theme too.

So far so good, it looks great & works fine too. But one problem is that the Breadcrumbs at the top of my page throughout the website only display:

Home / Forum / HatWorks Forum

If i then go into the GENERAL DISCUSSION SUB FORUM / TOPIC I get the following:

Home / Forum / General Discussion

Instead i should be getting:

Home / Forum / HatWorks Forum / General Discussion

If i then go to click a topic in general discussion I get:

Home / Forum / Hello all forum members, what do you prefer?

instead of

Home / Forum / HatWorks Forum / General Discussion / Hello all forum members, what do you prefer?

The current code I have written in my functions.php for the breadcrumbs is:

<?php
function the_breadcrumb() {
    global $post;
    $post_type = $post->post_type;
    echo '<ul id="breadcrumbs">';
	if(get_post_type() == 'forum' OR get_post_type() == 'topic' OR get_post_type() == 'reply') {
		
	  echo '<li><a href="';
        echo get_option('home');
        echo '">';
        echo '<i class="ts-awesome-home" style="font-size:14px;letter-spacing: 2px;"></i> Home';
        echo '</a></li><li class="separator"> / </li>';
		echo '<a href="https://hub.driveworks.co.uk/forums/forum/">Forum</a>';
		echo ' &nbsp;/&nbsp; ';
		echo  the_title();

	}

    elseif (!is_home()) {
        echo '<li><a href="';
        echo get_option('home');
        echo '">';
        echo '<i class="ts-awesome-home" style="font-size:14px;letter-spacing: 2px;"></i> Home';
        echo '</a></li><li class="separator"> / </li>';
        if (is_category() || is_single()) {
            echo '<li>';
            the_category(' </li><li class="separator"> / </li><li> ');
            if (is_single()) {
                echo '</li><li class="separator"> / </li><li>';
                the_title();
                echo '</li>';
            }
        } 
		
		elseif (is_page()) {
            if($post->post_parent){
                $anc = get_post_ancestors( $post->ID );
                $title = get_the_title();
                foreach ( $anc as $ancestor ) {
                    $output = '<li><a href="'.get_permalink($ancestor).'" title="'.get_the_title($ancestor).'">'.get_the_title($ancestor).'</a></li> <li class="separator">/</li>'.$output;
                }
                echo $output;
                echo '<span title="'.$title.'"> '.$title.'</span>';
            } else {
                echo '<li><span> '.get_the_title().'</span></li>';
            }
        }
		
    }
   
}

?>

You can use this http://www.wptemplate.com/tutorials/create-a-custom-wordpress-plugin-from-scratch.html

this is a known issue and will be resolved in a future release of bbPress.

here is the trac ticket so you can see the progress of the resolution to this issue.

@madvibes

do you mean they can just see the backend of WordPress??

or that they have Admin Capabilities??

[Robkk]

use/look at Robins plugin

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-topic-count/

[Robin W]

Could be many things that have been set in your theme or plugins.

you best bet would be to hire someone to fix

Hello! I have installed bbpress to my wordpress site that I host on a private host. Everything seems to have installed fine. So here is the problem. No users, regardless of their role, is able to view the initial topic post. All replies are viewable, just not the original post.

Website: http://main.coto-online.com/forums/

I have tried repairing the forums, and it doesn’t work. I have tried disabling/re-enabling plugins and it doesn’t work. I’m hesitant to uninstall/reinstall the forums as I don’t want to lose the posts members have already made.

Please help me.
Thanks in advance.

[awpt]

Just tried with default theme of wordpress but nothing
If some one tell me how to remove it from database I will reinstall bbpress but I cand find the tables too.I want to remove bbpress tables for a new fresh Installation But there is nothing about bbpress in my database and the forums with topics are there in site.com/forums

[madvibes]

Hi. I have inherited a site using BBpress and there are some issues with new user registration. The forum settings are to give new registered users a Participant role, and my WP default is Subscriber for new users.

However, when somebody new registers for the forum, they are given full Admin access in wordpress. Obviously not something that is desirable.

I’m running the latest versions of both WP and BB. Please advise!

[Helene N – Insdigbord]

Oh got it, thanks. I was looking for where in WordPress it appears !

[Robin W]

Most of the filters are held in the templates that are located as follows :

wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/forums/template.php
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/topics/template.php
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/replies/template.php
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/users/template.php
wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/search/template.php

There are two typically filters, one on the final function usually within the ‘return’, and one that mimics wordpress’s ‘before’ filters
from the docs

Near the beginning of many functions we find :

// Parse arguments against default values
    $r = bbp_parse_args( $args, array(
        'before'            => '<ul class=&quot;bbp-forums-list&quot;>',
        'after'             => '',
        'link_before'       => '<li class=&quot;bbp-forum&quot;>',
        'link_after'        => '',
        'count_before'      => ' (',
        'count_after'       => ')',
        'count_sep'         => ', ',
        'separator'         => ', ',
        'forum_id'          => '',
        'show_topic_count'  => true,
        'show_reply_count'  => true,
    ), 'list_forums' );
 

This is a common format throughout bbPress, and indeed is similar to a function used throughout wordpress.

It uses a function called bbp_parse_args to create a filter against all the arguments.

The filter created is in the format bbp_before_ followed by X followed by _parse_args The X is the third argument from the bbp_parse_args function – if you look at the code above you’ll see that it is actually
bbp_parse_args ($args, Array(...), 'list_forums' )

so in the last line we see list forums which is the X above . In practice this is the function without the bbp start bit.

so an array filter for bbp_list_forums is bbp_before_list_forums_parse_args
and for say bbp_get_topic_pagination would be
bbp_before_get_topic_pagination_parse_args

i did find this topic that might help

Simple Rating plugin for wordpress – get it working for bbpress?

here is an old versions list of filters (its 2.0)

http://etivite.com/api-hooks/bbpress/triggers/apply_filters/

here is a gist that might be helpful (2011)

gist.github.com/farinspace/1372637

you can manually find topic/replies/forums filters in

by going to through the plugin files in

bbpress>includes>

then choose replies/forums/topics

then go into the template file to find all the filters used

[Robkk]

try using this plugin, use the logout link from this plugin and use a custom login link for the bbPress login shortcode if you want.

@awpt

bbPress uses the WordPress post tables.

but to reset forum go to tools>forums>reset forums

you should see these sub-menu items under tools

Tools
available tools
import
export
forums

@alaskanbob

Sorry sometimes topics can be lost from our attention sometimes.

the other guy is SPAM

if you want you can create me a dummy account and send the details to my email listed here.

Contact

if i cant figure it out , maybe going to the BuddyPress forums would help out to

[Robkk]

this seems like custom development please post a job at http://jobs.wordpress.net/

[Robkk]

there probably isnt a plugin like this for bbPress

if the plugin works for custom post types it might work??

you can contact the plugin developer to try to make it work on custom post types like the ones bbPress uses.

other than that i suggest you post a job at http://jobs.wordpress.net/ and see if a developer can custom develop this for you.

[Robkk]

this is a pretty common request here

there might be issues where you cant add the permissions to work on only the participants created topics only though.

i suggest searching the forums try finding topics only in the past 1-2 years past that will probably be unusable code.

other than that go to http://jobs.wordpress.net/
