    Hi. Newbie here. Working with a bunch of retirees. We have a website (larcAlumni.org) that uses WordPress (5.7.2). I thought using a forum would simply our communication and keep records as well.

    We had bbPress plugin, but it was deactivated. When I activated it, I did not get intro screen nor did I get Forum menu item. I do get Topics and Replies menu items. I deactivated all other plugins, reactivated and reinstalled, no change. I ran Troubleshoot and got a critical error.

    DIVI is installed with a basic, blank theme.

    Any suggestions what I might try next?

    Thanks for help, Dan

    it could be a theme or plugin issue

    Themes

    As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.

    Plugins

    If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

    If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

    Then come back

    WordPress Version 5.7.2
    BBPress Version 2.6.6

    When I go to the forum on the front end, try to create a topic, first I get “A name is required for this term.”, then the created topic does not show on the user’s front end, only shows in the Admin backend.
    Can you please advise what might be the issue here?

    Thanks

    @gloriajameson you are now well beyond any support for bbpress!!!

    And into wordpress and the plugin you are using.

    I have no idea if that plugin stores uploads as WordPress media images, or in a separate folder, and indeed whether it makes multiple copies. I have no knowledge either of compressor, there are other compression plugins, but as I say not in my area to recommend or indeed say whether they would work.

    My personal general view would be that letting users exchange images privately, whilst leaving copies on your website sounds dangerous as without looking as each image you have no idea what images are being sent, thus leaving you open to possible action such as copyright, reputation damage though say pornography or indeed criminal action against you – eg in the UK holding bomb making instructions makes you liable to be sent to prison. Depends on how much you want to trust your users 🙂

    Thanks Robin

    Actually I have some further questions if you wouldn’t mind me tapping your knowledge again. There is a feature in Front End PM that allows attachments to the private messages. The size (default 4MB) and number (default 1) of attachments can be set in the FEPM control panel. I’m guessing the 4MB may come from a typical cellphone photo size (actually possibly a bit out of date these days) but my instinct is not to let big files in as I’ve only 5GB of space left on the account.

    Question 1: If I used a plugin like say compressor.io, would it intercept FEPM attachments and do the job? If so, do I need to set the max file size to the before or after compression figure?

    Question 2: I understand WordPress and Avada between them make multiple copies of any upload (18?) That means I could run out of space very quickly. Should I even be contemplating attachments to PMs given my site capacity? (reference https://theme-fusion.com/documentation/avada/media/how-avada-controls-responsive-images/ )

    Question 3: As administrator I can go in and delete old attachments. Would that instantly free up disk space?

    Hi Robin,

    The BBpress Messages plugin you mentioned isn’t appearing when I search for the plug-in in WP control panel. Alternatively, clicking through on the link you gave I found this, perhaps this is why it’s not appearing:

    This plugin hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress. It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress.

    How about this one, perhaps it’s a newer version? It pops up right away on the control panel:

    Hello,

    my site has 3 forums. We would like two of the forums to allow replies to topics to post automatically which is happening now. However, on one of the forums we’d like all replies to topics to be required to be approved by a specific keymaster.

    Is this possible?

    We are using bbpress on wordpress with the plugin ultimate member pro.

    Wordpress is free software, as is bbpress 🙂

    Some lunches are free, but yes you should add plugins with some thought.

    Hi,

    I’m interested in having a user-to-user Private Message function on my site. Simplest possible / no frills.

    My site is .org / wordpress v5.7.2

    Site (not yet in full use) http://forum.thehiddenpeople.ie/

    Currently activated plugins:
    Akismet antispam
    Avada Builder
    Avada Core
    Basic use avatars
    BBPress
    Disable Gutenberg

    I’ve come across a few plugins that sound like possibilities but none that have been tested with Avada. Any recommendations anyone?

    yes, this has been happening for a while (it happens on this site!) , and I’ve not got round to looking at why until you posted (I am a bbpress user who helps out here, not one of the bbpress authors).

    I’ve just dug into the code and created a trac fix ticket for it

    https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/3429#ticket

    in the meantime, this code fixes the problem

    add_filter ('bbp_bump_user_topic_count' , 'rew_new_topic_count', 10 , 4) ;
    
    function rew_new_topic_count ($user_topic_count, $user_id, $difference, $count) {
    	//check if count is 2 and should be 1 by seeing if user topic count is empty!!
    	if ($user_topic_count==2 && empty (bbp_get_user_topic_count( $user_id, true )) )$user_topic_count = 1 ;
    return $user_topic_count ;	
    }
    
    add_filter ('bbp_bump_user_reply_count' , 'rew_new_reply_count', 10 , 4) ;
    
    function rew_new_reply_count ($user_reply_count, $user_id, $difference, $count) {
    	//check if count is 2 and should be 1 by seeing if user topic count is empty!!
    	if ($user_reply_count==2 && empty (bbp_get_user_reply_count( $user_id, true )) )$user_reply_count = 1 ;
    return $user_reply_count ;	
    }

    Put this in your child theme’s function file –

    ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php

    where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

    or use

    I have a WordPress site using bbPress and I have some users that are randomly being redirected to a renewal page when they click on certain forum items (usually new posts). I have them delete their cookies and then it works fine. I am just unable to recreate it, so I don’t know exactly how the cookie is becoming invalid. Any ideas how to debug this?

    I would suspect this is a 404 error.

    it could be a theme or plugin issue

    If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

    On wordpress users can decide to cancel.
    When a user deletes his topics are they deleted?
    Are replies to other people’s topics deleted?

    The Plug-in section has just disappeared off my dashboard. I’m a user not an IT person so not au fait. The developer (who has now left me to my own devices) made me super-admin during development to open up more functions but now he’s gone I seem to have regressed to a mere Administrator and can’t see the plug-ins anymore. My reading about that suggests that even as an administrator I should be able to manage plug-ins but it’s not happening.

    What I do in this case is use client side JavaScript code to inject a new HTML element at the position you want it, with your custom code.
    I put a Custom HTML widget on the page which has all the required JS & CSS code.
    The advantage of this approach is that you don’t need to mess with the PHP files of your WordPress or bbPress setup, so when you do an upgrade in the future, you don’t have to worry about your changes being overwritten, or your site to break because of your changes.

    I use the code below to place a Reply button on top of the page. When it’s clicked, it will scroll down to the new post form at the bottom of the page (the most recent post is on top).

    <script type="text/javascript">
    	// Add the reply shortcut button at the top.
    	let btn = document.createElement("a");
        btn.href='javascript:document.getElementsByClassName("bbp-footer")[0].scrollIntoView()'	
    
    	btn.innerText='Reply'
    	btn.className='nj-replybtn'
    
    	let n = document.getElementsByClassName('bbp-replies')[0];
    
    	if (n !== null) {  
    		n.parentNode.insertBefore(btn, n);
    	}
    
    </script>
    <style>
    	.nj-replybtn {
    		color: white;
    		background-color: #007acc;
    		
    		padding: 5px;
    		margin: 2px;
    	}
    </style>
