I am using Search bbPress https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search-bbpress/. Initially, I didn’t post it on there because there is a total of 5 topics their entire shelf life with one resolution (resolved by the same user who created it). But I did just submit it there because I’m not entirely sure if it’s bbPress’s engine or the plugin.

I guess I’m trying to figure out if it’s a matter of how it’s finding the results, how it’s displaying the results, or how bbPress stores them. I assume it’s probably not bbPress itself at this point.

Search “bbPress moderation” on the WordPress.org plugin repo – there are some plugins that will help moderate and deal with email notifications.

Currently in bbPress 2.1.x there is no support to have specific moderators on specific forums, etc. However, this is in the works for 2.2, so this functionality will arrive this year.

It’d be great if you could submit a trac ticket.

I’ve done a bit of research on the current state of Syntax Highlighter support in bbPress 2. These are my findings thus far:

The “official” syntax highlighter plugin, Syntax Highlighter Evolved, does not yet support bbPress, and unfortunately the plugin does not seem to be well supported any longer. I still put a request in:

• http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/syntaxhighlighter/
• http://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-syntaxhighlighter-evolved-please-add-bbpress-2-support?replies=1

The best option available at the moment appears to be the Crayon Syntax Highlighter.

• http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/crayon-syntax-highlighter/
• http://ak.net84.net/crayon/crayon-with-bbpress/

Do note that at the time of writing, there appears to be a slight hickup with the WP backend upon activating Crayon with bbPress already installed, so you might want to wait for the patch. But other than that the plugin seems to be working marvelously, it’s packed with features and the developer is actively supporting it.

Alternatively, for the WP-Markdown users, there’s an enhancement available for those who prefer Gorbatchev’s highlighter over Prettify.js (might wanna try that on this forum).

TinyMCE has its own plugins: TinyMCE plugins. How can one use them in BBpress?

Thanks!
Martin

p.s. What version of TinyMCE does BBpress/Wordpress use?

[Pippin Williamson]

Read my reply above. You can create a page (just a regular WordPress page) and then place [bbp-forum-index] in the page content.

Hello, I installed the last bbpress version plugin on the last wordpress version.
Frist I created a new forum, I added it on my own menu.

But when I clic on it, an error occurred : “It seems we can’t find what you’re looking for. Perhaps searching, or one of the links below, can help”.

So what should I do ? thx.

Hi all,

I’ve got a fresh installation of bbPress within a WordPress site with a custom theme. The forum needs some styling work, but seems to be mostly functional, aside from the lack of posts within threads.

I’m including a screenshot of a test thread with one reply. As you can see, the contents of the post and it’s reply are absent and i’m unsure as to where to look to fix it.

WordPress 3.4.2 and bbPress 2.1.2.

Thanks in advance for any help,
Sam.

Hi there,

I am using bbp_topic_excerpt() inside loop-single-topic.php (in custom theme) to display excerpts in my forum topic listing page. The excerpt only displays 100 characters before it cuts off

I was wondering if there’s a way to increase the excerpt length (to say, 200 characters), without hacking any of the core files?

I’m using bbPress 2.1.2, Buddypress 1.6.1, WordPress 3.4.2

OK, but bbpress is running with

Custom root slugs to prefix your forums and topics with. These can be partnered with WordPress pages to allow more flexibility.

how I can find my page ID because forum based is “discussions” and I don’t have page name with “discussions”

Thank’s for help

… might not be to use bbpress at all.

I have a standalone bbpress that I would love to import & integrate. I assumed that the “forum” would be a category on my wp install, and the topics subcategories, and the forum posts seen as wp posts and comments.

This would allow my wp site to act as neither blog nor forum but a truly integrated website, with everyone acting like an author, and a central way for me to control the content flow.

But from my explorations I discovered that it doesn’t work this way at all. Forum posts are not wp posts, there’s still 2 separate systems in this “integrated” model. So the comments on my wp install have a different codebase than the comments/replies in my forum, for example.

I’m considering totally tricking out one of the many form plugins (Gravity Forms, etc) to create “posts” in the “forum” category in my wp install. So the whole concept of the forum is nothing more than having logged in users create guest posts in a truly integrated wp install.

Just curious if anyone has done this — I can’t be the first guy to think of this idea. The biggest drawback so far is that i would need to find a way to import the posts in my old standalone forum to become posts in my new setup.

I downloaded new twenty eleven (it’s for wordpress only, there is nothing about bbpress support) and it’s still the same, you can see it now. Is there twenty eleven made by both bbpress and wordpress teams just like twentyten?

Thanks! I hope we can reslove the problem soon

Log into your WordPress admin, go to Pages, click Edit on the page you want, then look at the URL. The post=xx part will show you the page ID, which you can then use in your code:

if( ! is_user_logged_in() && is_page( xx ) ) {
      // use get_permalink() to get the URL. 
}

This fits to the original question, so I am writing it here. What is the reason to have this bbp-login, bbp-register and bbp-lost-password code anyway? I’ve just spent a considerable amount of time customizing this bbp code to make it play nice with my theme. And then I had to realize that under certain circumstances the user ends up at the original WordPress login, register and lost password forms – which is certainly not waht I want. So why the … are those bbp forms there when obviously the original WordPress forms accomplish the same things. I could have customized the WordPress forms and all would have been good, no? To have this bbp forms seems to be redundant, confusing and – as it was in my case – time consuming. The bbp team, should supply such forms only if they go all the way, error detection and such included, or not supply it at all.

[Pippin Williamson]

OK first read about short codes here.

Basically a short code is a place holder for content (html, images, posts, etc). When you place [bbp-forum-index] into the content of a page, it will be replaced automatically with an index of your forums in bbPress. Try it out and you’ll see what I mean.

Hello,
I want to add a link with the “pagetitle” of bbpress forum page.

bbpress is running in a wordpress page but how I can find it? where it is?
I want to past a simply code as

if ( !is_user_logged_in()&&is_page('???') ) {my link...

thank you for helping.

WP: 3.4.1
bbpress: 2.1.2
theme: Frisco for BuddyPress

Hello, I’m trying to set a wordpress site, where for the forum, people fill a form : reach or propose a travel, place they live, number of seat in their car, and then enter the form that will appear with a css style and people can interact to it …
Any idea of how can I create a form forum like that ?
Thanks in advance,
Oli

Use bbPress String Swap plugin: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-string-swap/

[Pippin Williamson]

Only users with upload capability are allowed to embed images by default. I’d recommend that you install the GD bbPress Attachments plugin for this as it will give the option for users to upload images.

[Pippin Williamson]

There’s a lack of documentation at the moment because the site is being redone (slowly) and the individuals responsible for the majority of the documentation are also the main developers, who are busy writing code 😀

The location of the forums on your site depend on the settings you have set in Settings > Forums. Take a look at the documentation for basic settings.

You can also manually place the forums index on any regular WordPress page by using the [bbp-forum-index] short code. Short code reference.

I am trying to get rid of the text: “Add this topic to your favorites” and “This topic is one your favorites”, as I am using a background css image instead.

The icons are working beautifully, bar the fact that the text comes up.

You will also notice that if you click the star to add it to your favorites, another star appears, which is a link to all your favorites. It appears the link to the forum favorites doesn’t have its own css class, which is why both are coming up as stars. I’d like to get rid of that.

Not sure if this will fit in with your plugin bbPress String Swap David, if you see this.

If you want to see this in action on my forum (still being built), log in at http://netballscoop.com/log-in/ with Username: testing and Password: testing. The forums are at http://netballscoop.com/forums and click on a single topic to see the favorites and subscriptions at the top underneath the title.

I am using WordPress 3.4.2 and bbPress 2.1.2.

How do users register? Default WordPress registration form or a plugin?

[infuri0us]

Hey guys, my website is alphaonegaming.com, and I have installed the bbpress wordpress plugin, but when I go to make a user registration page, the template for making it so does not appear. I am using the lucid theme by elegant themes if that helps.

[hixsonb]

I have WordPress 3.4.2 and bbPress plugin version 2.1.2.

I recently used the migration tool to import the data from an old bbPress 1.1 forum. Everything seemed to go quite well. I did lose some topics but I can certainly live with it.

I have, however, noticed that the Login Notice “You Must be logged in to post a topic” is NOT showing when users are not logged in.

I can see the code (or what I think is the code) in the bbPress template but it just won’t show.

Yous assistance would be appreciated.
