Plugins in the old version of bbpress need to be uploaded by ftp, there’s no button or search for that. I advise you install wordpress and use the latest bbpress plugin version instead, even if you don’t want to use wordpress. I just converted from the standalone version a few weeks ago and I’m glad I did.

Why would you want to install a version that’s not supported anymore, when you have the option to start fresh with the latest version? You’ll run into a lot of problems eventually so might as well do it now.

Create a new wordpress page called “registration” (or whatever you wish to call it). On that new page add the shortcode [bbp-register] and publish it. Then add the link to the new page you just created on the sidebar widget, for example: your site.com/registration/

Here’s a list of all the shortcodes you can use: https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/

ok! I solved it now!

how?
I copied my header.php and renamed it to header-activity.php
in this file I copied the following code in the

in my index.php I`ve replaced
“

“

I hope it helps s.o. else with the same problem of using the post-box as stand-alone on any other wordpress-site!

I have just installed BBpress 2.2.4 into WordPress 3.5.1

I have a login widget on my sidebar.
In this widget there is a field for a URL that will take new (unregistered) users to a registration page.
What is this URL? If it is specific to my site, how do I create/define it?

Add new roles with a roles plugin. You don’t have to use code. See: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/members

Hello,

I am using WordPress 3.5.1 and bbPress 2.2.4

Site: http://meditationpracticeornot.com/

I added a new keymaster user to create forums and when they login the option to create a new forum is not listed. I was previously using User Role Editor and the s2member plugin, I removed them because of other issues, but I am still having problems. Any help is appreciated. If any additional info is needed let me know. Thank You

The widget works fine on the home.php. But when I load it on my category.php it shows recent posts from wordpress, not recent forum posts. Can someone help me and tell me why?

[Sergio De Falco]

Hi people,

It’s possible because I have seen it, but how-to insert breadcrumbs before page title in bbPress (without using css)?

The title is handled by Worpdress, but if I add

php bbp_breadcrumb

before the title in a custom content-forum.php page, it doesn’t work.

Using a thirdy part plugin (like WordPress SEO by Yoast) will work, but in some pages I see Topics, not forums in the breadcrumbs (maybe due to the post_type), and it’s not really “clean”.

Who can help ne?

Thanks 🙂

FAQ – https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-in-your-language/

The following shows the current progress of bbPress translation to French for the ‘dev’ & ‘2.2.x’ versions:

https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/dev
11% – 111 Translated – 879 Untranslated – 628 Waiting

https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/2.2.x
% – 0 Translated – 952 Untranslated – 533 Waiting

So quite a few are done but needs an authorised ‘validator’ to approve the ‘waiting’ translations.

You can contact your local translation time via https://fr.wordpress.org/contact/ to find out who the bbPress validators are or if no luck request to become a validator yourself via https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/

I am pretty sure this plugin has something with setting the forum hours.

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-vip-support-plugin/

It hasn’t been updated in a while but there is an unofficial update on GitHub

Hi all

I have installed BBPress version 1.2 to act as a standalone forum alongside my online shop http://folliclehealth.com/forum/ (we don’t have WordPress installed). I created it in a separate folder so it doesn’t interfere with the main website.

Everything has gone brilliantly but I have found that there is no Install plugin button in the admin area.

Is this normal and if so, how am I supposed to integrate plugins (eg anti-span, etc)?

Please advise.

hello all

I am enjoying working with wordpress/bbpress/s2member on a new website.

I would like to make the forum unavailable to users from 10pm-6am. This will depend on the users time zone.

Is this possible?

Thank you

[Gettinitdone]

hello all

I am enjoying working with wordpress/bbpress/s2member on a new website.

I would like to limit all users time, except for admin, to 1 hour per day.

Is this possible?

Thank you

[fuseful]

Did anyone help you out here?

Have to say bbPress support is absolutely useless – It’s a pity.

Perhaps someone could start an “unofficial” support forum where people actually do provide support other than:

– Ignore the issue
– Blame the issue on WordPress
– Blame the issue on WordPress theme

Hope someone can help with this simple request -How to insert a text (like adsense for example) above and below the forum page !!!

[gabrielstuff]

Well, this hack (https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1478#comment:7) correct the 404 error :
`
function fix_bbp_404() {
global $wp_query;

if ( $wp_query->bbp_is_single_user ||
$wp_query->bbp_is_single_user_edit ||
$wp_query->bbp_is_view
) {
$wp_query->is_404 = false;
// Unset nocache_headers
foreach( wp_get_nocache_headers() as $name => $field_value ) {
@header( “{$name}: ” );
}
// Set status 200
status_header( 200 );
}
}
add_action( ‘wp’, ‘fix_bbp_404’ );
`

I tried the trunk version but didn’t get any result… Hack above fix the issue… even if it return wrong title.

[Balztrap]

Ok so after a while I thought this might actually be a plugin issue instead, after deactivating and re-activating them one by one, WordPress SEO turned out to be the culprit. All works fine now!

Hi,

I have a new installation of WP/Buddypress that I’ve installed and I have a question regarding Group Forums. For some reason I am not seeing the “Notify me of follow-up replies via e-mail” checkbox that should appear below the “tags” option as seen in these forums as well as here:

http://mercime.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/bp-forums-19.gif

Driving me nuts. Is there a way to turn this feature on? What am I missing?

I am having trouble with running bbPress 2.2.4 and BuddyPress 1.6.4 on the Custom Community 1.14 theme with WordPress 3.5.1 . I have disabled all other plugins and rebuilt permalinks to different structures, to no avail.
The site is http://www.surprisecommunity.com
When my registered users click “Submit” to enter a topic or a reply, an error page results. It seems that there is some conflict in the slug/permalink configuration. The new topic/reply will post but not before the user is shown a page like this:

Additionally, a 302 Found

Any ideas about what is going on??

[Unsal Korkmaz]

@sadr No.  Before i started to write this theme, i inspect all Bootstrap+ WordPress solutions that i can use. After i see there is no solution for me that i am happy with it, i decide to write my own theme. In Roots theme, i like their solution for Walker_Nav_Menu so i used this section. Basically only this file is from Roots theme: https://themes.svn.wordpress.org/firmasite/1.1.7/functions/nav.php

A funny note: I was using Infinity theme as my parent theme until 2 months ago. I was using it because their option panel was letting upload images with 1 click (custom plupload implement). When they removed it, i decide to change my parent theme

Does Yootheme WordPress Integrate with bbpress??

If not, can someone let me know how to fix let the dates show?

Edit the file in wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/core

the file to edit is called capabilities.php

Incorrect; *never* edit any files in bbPress’s directory; you’ll lose those edits when software updates come in.

@anallabres – Research how WordPress’s actions/filters/plugins work. It’s a little dizzying at first, but a few lines of code can get you up and running.

[LChambers]

Please try this code instead:

add_filter ( ‘bbp_get_reply_post_date’, ‘act_fecha’, 10, 6);
add_filter ( ‘bbp_get_topic_post_date’, ‘act_fecha’, 10, 6);

function act_fecha( $result, $reply_id, $humanize, $gmt, $date, $time ) {
$date = get_post_time( get_option( ‘date_format’ ), $gmt, $reply_id, $translate = true );
$result = sprintf( _x( ‘%1$s at %2$s’, ‘date at time’, ‘bbpress’ ), $date, $time );
$return $result;
}

The above code would now work.

you could try buddypress, it has more control over groups and such

with the plugins i listed, you should be able to create 1 level of private forums, just use hidden forums for clan members or site mods group, assign access to hidden forums via user role editor

have a look a this plugin too

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/groups/

you could also try a plugin called s2member which allows protection of individual forums via “URI Level Access Restrictions” this (free) plugin is intended for pay sites but you could make all levels $0 i guess

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/s2member/

http://www.s2member.com/forums/topic-tag/bbpress/

but in the end, proper per forum group permissions as in phpbb etc are something i would really like to see in bbpress

for reference, from the bbpress docs –

Visibility: decide whether your forum is public, private or hidden.
Public – Anyone can see these forums
Private – Only logged in registered users can see these forums
Hidden: Only Moderators/Admins can see these forums
