hey guys,
I have an external Frontpage, which is located under domain.at
My Blog is located under the domain.at/blog.
Now I want that the bbpress forum is located under domain.at/forum instead of domain.at/blog/…
What is the best way to reach this goal? Is it necessary to do this with .htaccess or is there an easier way?
I think it might be also possible to make the frontpage a custom page template in wordpress, and create a page post type based on it. Then I could make domain.at the site-root with my custom frontpage and user /blog and /forum.
Is there an other / better way?
Thanks!
bbpress 2.5.4 with WordPress 4.1
For a non-member of my web site and thus not logged in, they are able to see search results from bbPress from topics that are in forums marked as Private.
To be clear, I have all but one of my forums set as Private. The other one is set to Hidden. When I go to the forum front page I see a message “Oh bother! No forums were found here!”. Using the search bar above the forum (presumably default search) I am able to return results from content that is in the Private groups. The Hidden content is not returned. To make matters worse, not only are the topics from the Private forums returned in the search results, but the actual topic content is returned as well, so it is completely public.
I’ve installed the latest version of bbpress and WordPress, and am attempting to migrate my forum from XenForo using the built in migration tool. I am receiving the following:
No reply_to parents to convert
No replies to convert
No tags to convert
No super stickies to stick
No stickies to stick
No topics to convert
No forum parents to convert
No forums to convert
No passwords to clear
No users to convert
I’ve used my config.php file from XenForo to obtain the host, username, password, and dbname. I also used the prefix ‘xf_’.
Any ideas?
The “Edit” link is there in every post. For the test I just did the link takes me to the following address:
http://www.spatialhaze.com/wordpress/index.php/forums/topic/freqently-asked-questions/edit/
And the following error message is what pops up on the screen for every post I try to edit:
Not FoundIt looks like nothing was found at this location. Maybe try a search?
It’s like the the edit link is pointing to a place with no data.
I will go through the links you provided to see if there is something I missed. BTW, I have removed and reinstalled the bbPress plugin twice with the same results.
Thanks,

I have tried as many of the proposed solutions as I could find in this forum, but still no solution. I have deactivated all plugins except bbpress and tried four different Themes, Twenty Twelve, Twenty Thirteen, Twenty Fourteen, and Twenty Fifteen. I also tried changing the default time for the “Disallow after editing” from 5 minutes to 99999 with no success. Even admin with keymaster privileges cannot edit own posts. Are there any other things I can try before giving up on bbPress? Or, is there another Forum plugin I can try that may have better success?
Thanks,
mux
you can contact bbPress reply by email’s plugin author here

other than that you can post a job at jobs.wordpress.net and see if anyone will pick up creating your feature.

I this sentence i said you can do much with only CSS and styling. To “sell” bbPress to WP beginners.
WordPress has its own “demo” websites, all those nice and fancy themes around web. BbPress has it not.
this is the featured sites section on here bbpress.org/about/examples/
and maybe this site should show any heavily designed WordPress themes integrated with bbPress in the themes section of this site?? the section isn’t really being used anymore ,but it could be a cool place to show off cool themes. i think that would have to wait for the bbpress theme tag though??
There is a reason why WP holds so much of web, and bbPress is not in this league.
well ones a cms/blogging software and the other is a forum software.
alot of people would want to create a blog over a forum , a forum requires alot more responsibility to take of and handle.
@robin-w
I’m working on one now that adds some styling changes (the common ones asked for)
if you need anybody to test it out you can email me it if you want to.

Problems with other forum scripts are (if we forget about WP integration for a moment) like this, and i have seen it more than often.
People come to forum, relax, discussing, forget about time. But they forget about main portal too. It doesnt exist for them. I have seen many popular and crowded forums and people behind main portal lose money, time, energy to write editorials and news. Nobody is reading this, nobody “knows” about portal when they are on forum. And all try to make other forum scripts look a like something near CMS are madness, better not to go this way.
Here you have old brother WordPress, so popular in the world. You discuss in the forum, suddenly sidebar widget display new article from portal, as it says “did you forget to read news”. Just one example of many of them.
All is here, all exist to make bbPress (or BuddyPress) most popular forum script. To follow steps of WordPress.
Smart core coders, wish exist, older brother WordPress is there to push bbPress in the front of other forum scripts.
I read somwehere (or was it for BuddyPress, but it is the same logic), that you avoid new options and functions in core to reduce support. It is OK and understandable.
I this sentence i said you can do much with only CSS and styling. To “sell” bbPress to WP beginners.
It is very behind other forum software right now.
WordPress has its own “demo” websites, all those nice and fancy themes around web. BbPress has it not.
try
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/
This should stop bbpress forum entries displaying when they shouldn’t.
Old topic but. This can help. Check just if it doesnt interfere with sorting in backend and frontend for other things. Such plugins can do it sometimes and give undesired results. Watch your widgets too how they behave.

the filter is just applying to the reply content.
You probably want to amend a template – How php code/wordpress knowledgable are you?
Hello, i have same problem, https://wordpress.org/support/topic/404-on-forums-broken-permalinks still didint got anwser what to do from wcml plugin creators.
ok, that isn’t really that helpful.
Presume the error only occurs with the moderation plugin?
If so try their support site
https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bbpressmoderation
although it looks as though someone has already posted that problem
Wordpress 4.1 // bbPress 2.5.3 // bbPress SubScriptions 0.4dev // GD bbPress Attachments 2.0
I see where the data is being prepared before use of send_email():
self::$handler->send_mail($user_ids, $subject, $text, compact(‘topic_id’, ‘reply_author_name’));
Where I am stuck is what to include in send_email() so that the GD image file (d4p_attachment[]) is included in the reply email, as well as the reply post.
All thoughts and ideas appreciated.
Thanks.
How do I go about getting into and editing the coding for the “img” button?
Currently the code that is applied is (img src=”xxxxxxxx” alt=”ffs” /) with the ( ) being < > and the xxx’s being the images URL.
I want to change the coding to (url=xxxxx)(img)xxxxx(/img)(/url) with the parentheses replaced with square brackets and xxxxx with the photo’s url.
By doing so, the images can be clicked which would open a lightbox
Thanks in advance for the help.

Hello Stephen,
I’m trying to convert my punbb forum into WordPress 4.1, and I have a problem.
I used the integrated punbb converter inside WordPress 4.1, and it imports everything but the members’ posts are all assigned to me !
When I try to import the users, the users are not imported at all.
Can you help ?
After some tests, I tried to deactivate one-by-one the last plugins I’ve installed. And after deactivating Google Anlytics by Yoast, it made the trick!
Forums are back now! All are listed. Widget is back on all the pages, I can reply and create topics… I hope this helps other people. This plugin seems to be incompatible with bbPress plugin!
I want to add ShareThis sharing button at the top and bottom of every posts, but I dont know which file to edit and where exactly to add the code. Please someone guide me through. Am using bbpress 2.5.4 wordpress 4.1
you can have a look at this screenshot to understand what I really need,

This is a wordpress question rather than bbpress. bbpress just uses wordpress and allocates a role on first login.
so google something like
‘wordpress user registration plugin’
I did and got, and plenty of other references

Hi there,
I’m looking for an option to hold new topics by non-admin users in moderation for approval before they are visible. I’ve tried looking at this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpressmoderation/ but it deals with topics and replies together- you have to moderate both or not moderate both. I’m not interested in moderating replies, just topic starters.
Could anybody by any chance suggest a different plugin, a code snippet to use etc. to work around this issue?
(I’m running the latest versions on WordPress, BuddyPress and bbPress).
Thank you very much!
I do it with this snippet. For WordPress and bbPress together. Local links are opened normally, only extern are target blank. Dont forget to change your domain line.
// Make URL Clickable In WordPress, bbPress (plus target=”_blank”)
add_filter( 'the_content', 'make_clickable');
function autoblank($text) {
$myurl = 'http://your-domain.com';
$external = str_replace('href=', 'target="_blank" href=', $text);
$external = str_replace('target="_blank" href="'.$myurl, 'href="'.$myurl, $external);
$external = str_replace('target="_blank" href="#', 'href="#', $external);
$external = str_replace('target = "_blank">', '>', $external);
return $external;
}
add_filter('the_content', 'autoblank');
add_filter('bbp_get_topic_content', 'autoblank',255);
add_filter('bbp_get_reply_content', 'autoblank',255);
Remove nofollow if you need to !
function mtn_weekly_fix_rel_follow( $content ) {
// Find rel="nofollow", replace with empty space.
$content = preg_replace( '/rel="nofollow"/', ' ', $content);
return $content;
}
add_filter( 'the_content', 'mtn_weekly_fix_rel_follow', 20 );
add_filter('bbp_get_topic_content', 'mtn_weekly_fix_rel_follow',255);
add_filter('bbp_get_reply_content', 'mtn_weekly_fix_rel_follow',255);
yes actually the problem finally went away I’m trying to remember what it was that fixed it…
it was either an upgrade or this thing i think:
