Ah, okay.

I guess I was looking to see if you had an idea of where I should look next for the issue given the behaviour I’ve noticed. I don’t expect you to troubleshoot my whole system, but here it is as it stands:

* WordPress 3.4

* bbPress 2.1b1

* a Thesis child theme with Thesis 1.8.5

* a bbPress-thesis plugin I wrote to apply bbPress templates in Thesis

(bbPress pages didn’t appear at all with Thesis until a recent change in 2.1)

My child theme is a BuddyPress child theme for Thesis (but I don’t have BuddyPress active right now), it can be downloaded at http://www.kristarella.com/snaps/thesis-bp-child_0.3.3.zip

The only difference between that version and the one I’m using is that I’ve added a header.php file that is the same as Thesis’ index.php (which builds the whole page, including the head). I did this because it seemed that if the active theme had no header.php the bbPress template would force a default header, and therefore default page contents too.

The bbPress-Thesis plugin is at http://www.kristarella.com/snaps/bbpress-thesis_122.zip

All the plugin really does is insert the template part into the middle of the page, because Thesis doesn’t use separate page templates, it has one index.php and then specifies the loop contents in a class, determining the page type from the query. So the plugin filters the loop class to add the bbPress loop content.

All of this seems to be working fine except for the visual editor, which looks like this at first:

http://www.kristarella.com/snaps/Thesis_visual-broken.png

Then if I make the one change of moving the files from bbp-theme-compat/extras to bbp-theme-compat, it looks like:

http://www.kristarella.com/snaps/Thesis_visual-working.png

I don’t know enough about the bbPress templating to know where to look next for the fix.

Thanks for your replies so far!

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1669 which was the major blocker for 2.1 has actually been punted to 2.2

So the integration originally planned for BP 1.6 / bbp 2.1 is now scheduled for BP 1.7 / bbp 2.2

Of course, a lot of work has already been done in the background.

Thank you Spence! This link saved me. I have been trying to get my forums working again after installing BuddyPress and was about to give up. This pointed me in the right direction and taught me a little extra about the layout of pages and shortlinks for wordpress. Perfect! Thanks.

I’ve had similar issues trying to add pages or post with WP 3.4 and I’m not sure what is going on.

Really? No post on devel yet http://bbpdevel.wordpress.com/

Yay! BP 1.6 Beta is out. https://buddypress.org/2012/06/buddypress-1-6-beta-1/

bbp 2.1 Beta can’t be far behind, considering that lots of people have been using 2.1 SVN for a while and the only major pending issue was compatibility with BP 1.6 and that BP 1.6 and bbp 2.1 are supposed to be released at the same time https://buddypress.org/community/groups/installing-buddypress/forum/topic/1-6-timelines/

Also, in bbp Trac, the BP compatibility etc. tickets are closed and only 1 ticket remains

Hi All.

Please see: http://i47.tinypic.com/z6ays.png

I upgraded to 3.4 and now have a strange spacing in the author box.

Stock bbpress plugin with stock template.

Can anyone help me out?

Thanks,

-George

[Reflecting]

I thought that the latest version of bbPress resolved the issues that cropped up with the WordPress 3.4 upgrade. However, some of the admin on our site are still getting the following out of memory error message when trying to add a new post to our site http://www.optionmillionaires.com

Fatal error: Out of memory (allocated 15466496) (tried to allocate 19456 bytes) in /home/optionmi/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-user-template.php on line 558

At first I wasn’t even able to install bbPress, but our web host increased our memory limit to 64M, and I thought everything was fine. I was able to add the forum, several related bbPress plugins, and have been adding forums and topics today. However, I just got word from two of the admin that they received the above message when attempting to post. It eventually lets them, but there’s obviously something going on. Any ideas on a fix?

[katmmad]

I can create new topics on my development site, but if I click on the link to view the topic it takes me to a 404 page. This happens on the front end (http://dev.corporette.com/boards/) and the back end (if I go to the wpadmin dashboard, click Topics, and then click “view” from the menu for whichever topic.

(Once I create a new topic it also automatically takes me to a 404 page, even though the topic has been successfully created.)

Any idea what’s wrong? Thank you in advance. I’m running WordPress/Genesis/Prose, the bbPress that’s in beta (2.1?) and Buddypress as well. Thank you!

Hi, I am new to both WordPress and BBpress.

I am trying to figure out how to change the page name from “Sample Page” on the forum breadcrumbs(I think that’s what it’s called). I also need to figure out how to stop the forum index page from being named after my MMA/Boxing/Wrestling forum…

I hope you understand what I mean because I really don’t know the proper terms…

If you go to http://www.sportsdebates.net/forums/ you will see what I mean. In your browser tab you will see MMA/Boxing/Wrestling rather than SportsDebates.Net and where it says “Sample Page › Forums” it should say “SportsDebates.Net > Forums”…

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi! I have bbPress as a plugin on WordPress and BuddyPress powered website. On my WordPress I have users set up as Editors, Authors, and Contributors.

For the forum, I’d like editors and authors to also have forum moderation abilities in addition to their preexisting WordPress capabilities. I don’t want them to *just* be moderators.

Is this possible? I looked at the roles documentation, but I can’t figure it out.

Thanks!

I’ve noticed that the phrase “Topic Description:” is not present in the list at http://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/plugin/nl/default

It is properly localised in the template files (line 82 in form-topic.php) so that’s not the issue.

[trueuser]

ok, now im sick of this.. i have tried like 6h to find a plugin or solution of my problem..

i just want wordpress posts show up as topic in bbpress.

i tried

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-bbpress-syncronization/

but i get stuck in:

URL is incorrect or connection error, please verify it (full variant): my-plugins/wordpress-bbpress-syncronization/bbwp-sync.php

and get

(Not allowed: [WordPress part] Cannot establish connection to bbPress part)

even if i put in the full path to bbwp-sync.php and place the files correctly

…

i even tried

http://bbpress.org/plugins/topic/bbsync/

but it tells me to find bb-load.php but i cant find it, i even extract the installation zip file and searched for it there but no go..

—

i tried

http://www.generalthreat.com/projects/bbpress-post-topics/

but i cant find the box, so i cant setup how it gonna work.

so.. is there any plugin that allows me to create topic in bbpress automatic from wordpress post OR RSS..?

thanks for reply.

[richardpd]

Nice-thanks for sharing.

For myself I have had major issues trying to run BuddyPress/bbPress on my blog and yet still I want to try bbPress forum plugin on another WordPress site of mine. Viewing yours is a help-I may have to look at your css styling & I certainly will want to look at what plugins will help run bbPress forum.

Thanks & best wishes (enjoy your minecrafting!!it’ll never beat chess lol!)

I found that, even though registration is allowed in my WordPress installation plus bbPress, that registration is hidden until a user enters some bogus information into the login widget and clicks login. They then get the error page and a chance to register.

Same seems to be true for password change possibility. It’s nowhere to be found. Or do I need a plugin for those things indeed?

[John James Jacoby]

Fixed: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1854

[Anonymous User]

Here are the details:

website.com is setup for multisite with just one add-on site website.com/kittens.

Now when test registering a user for website.com everything works as normal. User is registered, receives activation email and can login.

However, after logging in the user and attempting to post a bbPress topic the following message is received:

“You cannot create new topics at this time.”

My initial thought was “Okay, 3.4, probably some hiccups to still be worked out with all these variables and all the plugin authors making the mad dash to fix unforeseeable issues that arise.”

However, after further investigation I realized what the issue was that the test user failed to be registered as website.com’s user and instead as some sort of pseudo network user hence not having the right privileges.

Thanks, Bryan

When I upgraded to the newest version of bbpress, I was getting the error:

Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.

Looks like it may have been a memory issue. I bumped up my wp memory in wp-config.php and all is good.

Your mileage may vary…

[Jeff Sebring]

If you are using persistent cacheing, you may need to use wp_cache_flush() to allow the upgrade variable to be set.

I kept being sent to the upgrade database page from the admin after updating on a heavily cached site.

I hope this helps someone.

[Martin]

I’ve got a reasonably complex set of plugins myself.

I’ve upgraded to WP 3.4 and bbPress 2.03 with minimal issues.

I’d suggest that you’ve either got a plugin conflict and/or a theme that isn’t 3.4 compatible.

Your first port of call is to revert to the bog standard WP theme for testing and then if that doesn’t resolve things, start by disabling plugins.

And then report back here

[John James Jacoby]

Look harder. Plenty of examples in the forums here and the codex.

What your site looks like is not the intention. Your theme is not compatible with bbPress, since it’s doing something o override the WordPress template loader.

[John James Jacoby]

Not experiencing any of these issues on several installations. Can you please try your updates again? If you have anymore feedback other than ‘it broke’ would also be great.

[DarwinsDream]

WOW scary results here. I have a stable thing with WP 3.3 and bbPress 2.0.2 im down right frightened to uprade either of these. I’m not touching a thing right now and I recommend that to everyone.

[Todd – WireFlare]

I would suggest creating a backup of your database before performing this. Once you have a backup create a PHP file and paste the below code in it:

<?php

require_once('wp-load.php');

$posts = get_posts(‘post_type=revision&post_status=any&numberposts=-1’);

foreach($posts as $post)

{

echo “{$post->post_title}n”;

wp_delete_post($post->ID,true);

}

?>

Place the file in your WordPress root folder and load the file in your web browser by typing {domain}/{filename}.php

It should output a list of revisions that were removed.
