Hi, i would like to use WordPress native posts as topics with bbpress.

and I would like to install bbpress in a subfolder. but if I do that bbpress creates unnecessary slugs

I do not want bbpress to create an extra slug for example domain.com/folder/topic/orignal-post

I want below slugs ? is it possible?
domain.com/folder/
domain.com/this-this-a-post/

probably a combination of

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Breadcrumbs

and

dashboard>settings>forums>forum slugs to change the names

ok, now in – nice site by the way !

Not sure why changing in bbpress had no effect – I can’t see your theme is doing anything.

my first suggestion would be to install

bbp style pack

and once installed go into

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Forums index styling

and set some of those to a larger font – just start with 1 or 2 and see if they work.

If so you can work though the rest to get what you want.

If not come back, BUT leave a couple in place and tell me a couple you have changed.

I can then look at what is being downloaded to my browser and maybe help further

bbPress requires at least one Keymaster, and only keymasters can set other keymasters. However bbPress does allow you to change the last keymaster to another role without warning – leaving no keymasters, and no ability to set a keymaster.

I’ve added some code in the bug fixes tab of my style pack plugin that detects if this has happened, and allows creation of a new keymaster.

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>bug fixes

and you’ll see a tick box at the end.

Once you have ticked and saved, you can deactivate and delete this plugin, but I hope you’ll find a bunch of useful things in there and keep it going 🙂

I have been using this plugin successfully for years now to allow my members to post images in the forum without having to host them somewhere else. However, although it still works perfectly with my current WordPress version (5.4.2), it has not been updated in 2 years.

Can someone “update” or check it (it is open source) or suggest another one if/when this one no longer works?

Hi everyone,

I don’t know if the right place where to ask this is on the bbpress support or in the to Better Notifications for WP support. I looked for this problem but couldn’t find anything.
I’m using Better Notifications for WP to send notifications to new users of my bbpress forum and to alert administrator for new comments. This notifications are working perfectly.
I’m trying as well to create a new notification that would be sent to all users upon creation of a new topic in the forum.

This is not working no matter what I try.
The forums are private, I tried as well to set it up for private topics and not but still is not working.

The wordpress version is: 5.4.2
The bbpress version is: 2.6.5
The Better Notifications for WP version is: 1.8.3

Thank you

bbPress Version 2.6.5 <

WordPress 5.4.2

Among other instructions I used bbPress Styling Crib (https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-styling-crib/). I copied bbpress.css into the wp-content/themes/%your-theme%/css/ folder as directed in the Step by step guide to setting up a bbPress forum – part 2 (https://codex.bbpress.org/step-by-step-guide-to-setting-up-a-bbpress-forum-part-2/).

The bottom line is that I changed every “font-size:” tag in bbpress.css (and there are 40) trying to have SOME effect. Nothing.

The tiny text makes the forum unusable. Changing the font size, from much of what I’ve read, is simple.

What am I doing wrong???

Thanks in advance

That is very hard to do because the rule would conflict with default WordPress rules. It is possible, but there is no plugin that can do something like that as far as I know. For my purpose (not forum related, but similar), I had to create custom rules and override and intercept default rules to make it work. And, it can highly depend on other rewrite rules added by other plugins. I never managed to find universal solution that will just work.

Hello , i have vbulletin v3.8 and tried to import data by bbpress plugin on wordpress last version i got issue its like a loop and never stop keep repeating i left my pc over 3 hours after i back i found it still stuck in this step >> Step 8 <<

https://prnt.sc/thn6go

any idea of how to fix or pass this step to finish importing ?

[teichhorst]

Hi there,

there have been two posts that kind of go into this topic, but the solutions offered there didn’t help (yet). Maybe I did something wrong, idk.

I’ll back up a little. Here are the steps and error(s):

1. Click on registration
2. Type in the username to be used
3. Type in the e-mail address
4. Hit submit
5. Loading until ERR_TOO_MANY_REDIRECTS

Funny thing is that even if I didn’t fill in the required fields, the registration runs into the error.

What I tried so far:
– De- and re-activating plugins
– looked in the error.log and Plesk Protocols
– Updated the permalink structure
– … maybe more

but nothing’s to be found, nothing’s changed. Latest versions of WordPress, Avada (Theme) and bbpress are installed. There also are no SSL or htaccess problems that I know of.

Hopefully there’s someone who knows a solution to this issue.

Thanks and best regards
Tim

no the opposite they are never subscribed.

you can use

bbPress Notify (No Spam)

to get everyone to receive, but they can’t opt out !

[Robin W]

I’d suggest you start with

bbp style pack

this will let you change fonts and loads more

Please help! (not that I’m desperate or anything :))

I’m new to WordPress and ppPress so my CSS knowledge is thin, so I may need a little point in even how to get to some things.

I’ve just made a child theme of it this evening ready for tinkering about though, which I’m guessing would be the first stage 🙂

Any help very much appreciated.

Thanks

I might be wrong but is that not handled by WordPress? When you delete a user you are asked what you want to to with their content. You can assign it to someone else or delete it etc.

Looking for some help changing the colors for the forums. I downloaded this as a widget for my WordPress site and the forum pages I have are coming up with white text over a white background….can anyone help me please?

[Robin W]

ok, I think I understand, but guessing form names is also possible.

Maybe this is what you need

Private groups

[biggersworld]

I’m not going to lie, this has been very frustrating and it shouldn’t be. All I want to do is allow people to interact in my forums and reply to topics anonymously! I’m not here to con people into giving me their emails (that wouldn’t lead to sales anyways). Bbpress makes a setting that is titled…”Allow guest users without accounts to create topics and replies” but it does nothing and still ask for email but says “not published” REALLY “that sounds real not scammy.”

My wordpress theme is completely up to date as well as my bbpress that I installed today. Im working with “publisher premium theme” that works directly with bbpress.

I would really like to know why this is an issue and why bbpress has a button (box check) that does nothing that it says it will?

Thank you

[Robin W]

nothing I know of out of the box.

On this forum, spam users tend to post 2 or 3 replies before spamming a topic, so I suspect that your approach might not work.

you could use

bbPress – Moderation Tools

to control initial posters, so approve them manually

[Robin W]

the latest version changed some phrases and they have yet to be added into the translations.

you can use

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>translations

Some users on my bbpress site are facing ” ERROR: Duplicate topic detected; it looks as though you’ve already said that.” when they are trying to create a new topic. Issue persistent even when different terms are used, and crosschecked that a topic with the same name doesn’t exist.

bbpress version: 2.6.5
Wordpress Version: 5.4.2

I am using the default Twenty Twenty theme.

[Chuckie]

I have not really sure how to solve your issue. Have you tried with a default WordPress theme?
