I’ve made 2 groups in UAM, one for partners and one to lock pages. Both aren’t bound to WordPress / bbPress Roles. If i create a page or a post i can choose one of this groups or not. If i choose one, only the members of the group can see the page / post (this works) and all subpages too (recursively).
The forum is open to all users so the forum page has no group selected. I can’t change anything else without knowing more about bbPress or UAM. And i know nothing about it =P
Could something in the topic template cause this problem or is it more a core problem?
Do you maybe know an other plugin to lock pages (with user groups) if we can’t find a solution for this one?
1) Permit forum users to reply to an email
only plugin i know is https://github.com/rmccue/bbPress-Reply-by-Email
which uses mandrill and postmark for sending emails
2) Send new forum applications (registrations) to the moderator to either approve or disapprove
that plugin user profiles made easy should work on bbpress.
3) Permit forum users to post pictures e.g. .jpgs
you can use the img button in the toolbar which will use a url of a picture then embed the picture in a post.
you can use oembed which is already in wordpress core, where all you have to do is add a link to an image in a post then it will automatically embed. (imgur, flickr, are some examples that can do this.
and yes bbpress attachments plugin
Thanks for the answer. I’ve tested all plugins and the theme like you told me to.
The problem comes form the UAM – User Access Manager (http://www.gm-alex.de/projects/wordpress/plugins/user-access-manager/). I need this plugin to protect some parts of the website (not the forum). Any idea how to solve this?
Hi all,
We are working on a forum in BB Press but wish to have the following:
1) Permit forum users to reply to an email (e.g. to their yahoo or gmail account) to respond to a post rather than logging in and posting on site.
2) Send new forum applications (registrations) to the moderator to either approve or disapprove
3) Permit forum users to post pictures e.g. .jpgs
We have been told that 3) is possible via a plugin: http://wordpress.org/plugins/gd-bbpress-attachments/
Can you assist?
Regards,
Simon
P.S.
Software is out there that can do 2) but not BB press
E.g. http://codecanyon.net/item/user-profiles-made-easy-wordpress-plugin/4109874
See User Profile Approvals allows admin to manually approve users before they login (New Feature)
Update
Well and there also the same problem with my customers. Short overview:
Wordpress Role | bbPress Role | Works?
Super Admin | Keymaser | Yes
Subscriber | Participant | Yes
Customer (WooCommerce) | Participant | No
Unregistered | Unregistered | No
Nothing bad 🙂
It can take me up to 1/2 hour to investigate a problem before I even start to reply. Since your are fixed here, you wouldn’t want Justin wasting time trying to find a solution to a problem that has been fixed elsewhere, so was suggesting that you closed the tickets you created at
https://wordpress.org/support/theme/stargazer
suggest you try
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/
which should let you set them up the way you want
i use wordpress a plugin bbpress
i dont know that make difference
how to remove the author box on left page post completely?
please help
@ttmt place this code into loop-topics.php above the <li class="bbp-header">
<a class="bbp-most-popular-button" href="http://sitename.com/forums/view/popular/">Most Popular</a>
@robin-w I think the second one would require PHP and i hate PHP , but i can tell you the second one is going to use scraps of this
<a href="<?php bbp_user_replies_created_url(); ?>" title="<?php printf( esc_attr__( "%s's Replies Created", 'bbpress' ), bbp_get_displayed_user_field( 'display_name' ) ); ?>"><?php _e( 'Replies Created', 'bbpress' ); ?></a>
and some of this , basically the wp-get-current-user and output a link
Layout and functionality – Examples you can use
anyone please help how can i put name email title put into one table when user post topic or reply?
another question is how to change these name email title font bold and larger and the table boarder color too?
thank you i use wordpress with bbpress plugin
No, I am not using this plugin. I just implemented the bbpress forum and have not made a full switch to it.
oh my bad , easy confusion when you said you replaced wordpress to a forum, i guess you ment user engagement.
When you said, that this functionality will be implemented in the future, you meant bbpress topics for posts?
yes , but the feature you suggest could be good for topics for posts, and going to Dashboard>replies
Now, on the other hand, I have to click the forum, the subforum, the topic, and scroll down to the end, to be able to reply.
Robin said go to Dashboard>replies , so you can see every reply and just click view to go straight to the reply, and make time a little faster , but yes a reply button would be great
Because I would like to see a reply button on the Dashboard–>Replies section
I would too , this is actually not a bad feature implemented in the core since it would be great for workflow for moderators in my opinion
so suggest a feature in the trac
@netweb should look at it
Hmm… not sure what’s going on here. Have you tested it on a default theme?
My avatars were not doing that the last I checked. I’m pretty sure they were auto-resizing smaller, and fitting in quite nice. But, I stopped using this bbPress theme before the last couple WordPress updates because it’s not responsive, and the default bbPress is. It’s possible something changed in the WordPress code to make it act different.
If you can make a child theme, you could try this to change the avatars’ size on the page where they’re squished with css:
bbp-topic-meta .avatar {
width: 30px;
height: 30px;
}
To make everything more organized, I decided to switch to forum instead of wordpress comments.
so you are you using bbpress topics for posts plugin??
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-post-topics/
well this functionality will be implemented on bbpress in the future
so you could add a suggestion for a feature in the trac topic
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2498
You might be able to so something with multi-site, but beyond my knowledge
I’d just install wordpress and my theme in the sub-domain and add the bbress plugin, and have maybe a coupe of menu items, eg forums and login
Best way to find out if it is their plugin is to deactivate it and do a test post to see if that goes through.
Email is at best a shaky medium, and many things from host provider, server, links, wordpress, plugins and just plain complexity can make something that worked stop. Switch it off and on again can fix quite a lot, so even deactivating a plugin and reactivating it can fix.
good luck !
Don’t know ay plugin that restricts wordpress based on bbpress roles.
I use the plugin ‘restrict content’ to limit wordpress pages and then my plugin ‘bbp private groups’ to limit forum access.
On one site I then use manual registration to give users wordpress ‘subscriber’ and bbpress ‘participant’ roles, and on another automatic registration that does the same
Is there a way to create simple WordPress pages with limited access to users based on their bbPress roles?
For instance, only Participants can access forums and see topics. Similarly, I want to create a normal WP page which would be accessible only to Participants (and admins of course).
Hi!
On my site I have to reply to hundreds of comments daily. To make everything more organized, I decided to switch to forum instead of wordpress comments.
I like the organized layout of the forum but I really don’t like to answer to topics on forum, because I have to click so many times for every topic… With my previous arrangement, where people posted comments, I could just open the comments section on WordPress backend and would reply one after another with just clicking the Reply button, and all the comments were on the same (backend) page no matter where they ere originally posted.
Now, on the other hand, I have to click the forum, the subforum, the topic, and scroll down to the end, to be able to reply.
Is there any way to combine “the best of both worlds?” So – to be able to reply to all the topics (from all the forums and subforums) from one single page?
Thanks!
Hi!
The screenshots were supposed to be just to give a rough idea… Not to look at the details. At the incorrect one, one should see that the forum is at the top, and only then the logo image appears, whereas on the correct one, the logo image is at the top and the forum is on the left and the sidebar on the right, footer at the bottom.
I am using s2member for the membership management.
So, as an aministrator of the wordpress blog I can see the correct layout. As a s2member with an access to the specific forum, I see the incorrect layout. But, only at the parent forum, the subforums have the correct layout.
Thanks for your help!
have to say I am struggling from the screenshots to see what your issue is, the ‘correct’ one is all squashed up and impossible to read !
What plugin are using for the ‘paid’ bit? suspect that this works at wordpress user levels (subscriber, author, admin etc. ) not bbpress (participant, keymaster etc.)
ok, this theme has annoyed me so much that I have down loaded it.
I then saw that it claims to be a bbpress friendly theme, aghh!!! why not include a fullwidth forum????
so had a little play
on my test site the following works
bbpress.php looks like
<?php get_header(); // Loads the header.php template. ?>
<main>
<?php if ( have_posts() ) : // Checks if any posts were found. ?>
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : // Begins the loop through found posts. ?>
<?php the_post(); // Loads the post data. ?>
<article <?php hybrid_attr( 'post' ); ?>>
<?php if ( is_singular( get_post_type() ) ) : // If viewing a single page. ?>
<header class="entry-header">
<h1 <?php hybrid_attr( 'entry-title' ); ?>><?php single_post_title(); ?></h1>
</header><!-- .entry-header -->
<div <?php hybrid_attr( 'entry-content' ); ?>>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php wp_link_pages(); ?>
</div><!-- .entry-content -->
<?php else : // If not viewing a single page. ?>
<header class="entry-header">
<?php the_title( '<h2 ' . hybrid_get_attr( 'entry-title' ) . '><a href="' . get_permalink() . '" rel="bookmark" itemprop="url">', '</a></h2>' ); ?>
</header><!-- .entry-header -->
<div <?php hybrid_attr( 'entry-content' ); ?>>
<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php wp_link_pages(); ?>
</div><!-- .entry-content -->
<?php endif; // End single page check. ?>
</article><!-- .entry -->
<?php endwhile; // End found posts loop. ?>
<?php else : // If no posts were found. ?>
<?php locate_template( array( 'content/error.php' ), true ); // Loads the content/error.php template. ?>
<?php endif; // End check for posts. ?>
</main><!-- #content -->
<footer <?php hybrid_attr( 'footer' ); ?>>
<div class="wrap">
<?php hybrid_get_menu( 'social' ); // Loads the menu/social.php template. ?>
<p class="credit">
<?php printf(
/* Translators: 1 is current year, 2 is site name/link, 3 is WordPress name/link, and 4 is theme name/link. */
__( 'Copyright © %1$s %2$s. Powered by %3$s and %4$s.', 'stargazer' ),
date_i18n( 'Y' ), hybrid_get_site_link(), hybrid_get_wp_link(), hybrid_get_theme_link()
); ?>
</p><!-- .credit -->
</div><!-- .wrap -->
</footer><!-- #footer -->
</div><!-- #container -->
<?php wp_footer(); // WordPress hook for loading JavaScript, toolbar, and other things in the footer. ?>
</body>
</html>
Ok, now I’m noticing this.
If the forum content is at
http://www./forums which is where my forums page is at ( the page content bbp-index )
It wont show sidebar as the page is using the full width layout.
If the content is at http://www./forum which is where bbpress root is at, it will have the sidebar.
Maybe you’ll figure something out from that
And I’m just curious why is it hybrid_get_sidebar and not get_sidebar ?
Remove the hybrid caused problem with line 21 which is the
Copyright © 2014 The young marketers community . Powered by WordPress and Stargazer sentence.
The fact that your theme has coded the sidebar in the footer is really annoying !
No idea why that isn’t working, but plan b
change footer.php back to how it was, that way all the other pages will work.
now go back into bbpress.php and instead of the
<?php get_footer(); // Loads the footer.php template. ?>
paste the footer.php code, but without the two sidebar lines
</div><!– #main –>
</div><!– .wrap –>
<footer <?php hybrid_attr( ‘footer’ ); ?>>
<div class=”wrap”>
<?php hybrid_get_menu( ‘social’ ); // Loads the menu/social.php template. ?>
<p class=”credit”>
<?php printf(
/* Translators: 1 is current year, 2 is site name/link, 3 is WordPress name/link, and 4 is theme name/link. */
__( ‘Copyright © %1$s %2$s. Powered by %3$s and %4$s.’, ‘stargazer’ ),
date_i18n( ‘Y’ ), hybrid_get_site_link(), hybrid_get_wp_link(), hybrid_get_theme_link()
); ?>
</p><!– .credit –>
</div><!– .wrap –>
</footer><!– #footer –>
</div><!– #container –>
<?php wp_footer(); // WordPress hook for loading JavaScript, toolbar, and other things in the footer. ?>
and see what that does ! Sorry without having your theme, I’m guessing at some of the code, and am as before likely to miss some grammer so you may need to play a bit with it.
BBDT Forum will bring you to enter username/password, but no link to new user registration. That page is using: [bbp-forum-index] and is one I setup in wordpress, no link. Does that answer your question? Also, do I need to have a page called Forum Registration using: [bbp-login] that seems redundant. When I initally started I used this link as a guide if that helps: https://codex.bbpress.org/step-by-step-guide-to-setting-up-a-bbpress-forum/
