Hi!
I have made a forum on my WordPress website. Someone tried to register but he got this error:
Authorization Required
This server could not verify that you are authorized to access the document requested. Either you supplied the wrong credentials (e.g., bad password), or your browser doesn’t understand how to supply the credentials required.
To test it, I have used an old mailaddress and everything worked just fine. Is it his computer which is causing the trouble or is it something else?
Hi Pascal, thanks the these links. However those addressed the problem seen in WP REST Api version 1 and version 2 is the refactor code for WP REST API which will eventually go into WordPress Core. Version 2 is what I’m using and it doesn’t work as explain in those blog.
I’ve changed the loop-single-forum.php template file so that the frontpage contains all the forums on a single page. It look like this.
I’m also trying to implement a plugin called bbPress Unread Posts v2. It’s placing an icon before every forum title to notify the user when new posts/topics have been made in a forum.
As you can see in the template I’m firing bbp_list_forums() to list the forums. However this function does not fire the action bbp_theme_before_forum_title which means a plugin won’t affect these lists of forums.
I can imagine I need a manual way to list all forums so I can fire a do_action. But how would I be able to do that?
I think as far as wordpress can go is, but you have to create a custom folder in the uploads directory.
<img src="/wp-content/uploads/images/image.png" />
And possibly this if you have the images in your theme.
<img src="/wp-content/theme/images/image.png" />
You have to have all these images on your site for it to work.
It might be possible to change the image source, but it might depend on how you are sending this data to bbPress.
Tell me exactly what you are trying to do. It kind of sounds like you just want to borrow code from bbPress and use it somewhere else.
Are you trying to create a function that is related to the bbPress plugin and other WordPress pages??
It depends on what you are looking for. There are plugins for all types of different captchas.
Math Captcha
Google noCAPTCHA reCAPTCHA
Honeypot (Hidden FIeld)
Questions on Registration
There are various other captchas that are there too.

If you are looking for a plugin that I think is the best out the types that I listed, pick one and I will recommend a plugin that I think is quite good to use in conjunction with bbPress.

Would a user Login and Registration mechanism created by me for my WordPress site also work for the bbPress forum within that site?
Yes, bbPress is integrated with WordPress.
Would a participant-level user logged into my WordPress site be able to see the back-end?
Yes they can, but they usually can only edit their own profile. Moderators can moderate topics and replies in the backend too. Since their are different roles for WordPress and bbPress, you are able to have more flexibility with how you want to users to contribute to your site.
Can I restrict him only to viewing the front-end
You can disallow them from being in the backend by using a plugin like WP Admin No Show

Would plugins, like ‘Profile Builder‘, for simplifying the creation of WordPress Login and Registration mechanism also work for bbPress?
It should work fine with bbPress.
Might need some help from @netweb since he is part of the polyglots team. I am not that familiar with the translating process yet.
You may need to make a post on the polygots page to notify them that you have a bbPress project translation and where to submit the translations, I am sure they will be able to help.

You may be able to just contact your team here to see if they can also help you.

You may have to edit the translations here, and just wait for the team to approve the strings.

Hi,
1. Would a user Login and Registration mechanism created by me for my WordPress site also work for the bbPress forum within that site? What I mean is, if a visitor user with ‘participant’-level permission registers with and logs into the main WordPress site using the user registration and login pages of the WordPress site created by me, can he also then go to the bbPress forums in that site and create new topics / post messages there? Or do I need to create a separate user Login and Registration mechanism for the forums? Can I create a separate user Login and Registration mechanism for the forums?
2. Would a participant-level user logged into my WordPress site be able to see the back-end? Can I restrict him only to viewing the front-end, ie. the published pages only, and commenting in my articles (and perhaps create topics in bbPress forums as mentioned above)?
3. Would plugins, like ‘Profile Builder‘, for simplifying the creation of WordPress Login and Registration mechanism also work for bbPress?
My wordpress version: 4.3.1, bbPress version: 2.5.4 (don’t want to update bbPress at this moment).
Please help!
Thanks.
Hi,
If you look for features image, I did not try it myself yet, but somebody seem to has found something:
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/new-post-featured-image-section-not-showing-after-bbpress-code?replies=2
Hope it helps.
Pascal.
I created a new page, I added the shortcode, I choose the template with no sidebar on the page I created, and bbpress just ignores it completely. I also tried a suggestion in another post about adding code to the style.css but that didn’t work as I was never very good with css. The wordpress theme I am using is called point and can be found here: https://wordpress.org/themes/point/
If anyone could perhaps nudge me in the correct direction I would appreciate it, thanks.
Hi
After two months, I have translate bbpress to the Persian language. How can I send it to you to be add in the core of translations?
i want to be your representative like wp-persian.com for wordpress.org .
Regards , Hamed .
It seems to me that when they were added (through the dashboard, not the forum) they were not liked by the server.
I couldn’t duplicate this issue you are getting by not assigning a reply a topic and forum.
You can try these steps listed in this guide to possibly resolve an internal server error.

Hi
I embedded the Forum Index inside a WordPress page: http://tsalawchamber.org/?page_id=251 . Created a new forum (‘General’). But when I open the new forum and afterwards want to go back to the original WordPress page where the Forum Index was embedded, I can’t. When I click the “To Forums List” blue button at the top of the new Forum, it goes to a new page – which is I guess is called ‘Forum Root’ (?). This page also displays a list of existing Forums like the original WordPress page where I embedded the Forum Index, but I don’t want to go to this page by clicking “To Forums List” button – I want to go back to the original WordPress page. How can I do this? How can I change the destination of the “To Forums List” button and point it to the original WordPress page (not just for one forum, but automatically for all new forums) ?
I tried this by deleting the default Forum Root Slug “forums” from Settings and leaving the field blank, but this didn’t work. It only rendered the “To Forums List” button inactive. I also changed the default Forum Root Slug to the original wordpress page slug, but this did not work either. So, how can I do this?
Also, if this cannot be achieved through the “To Forums List” button, then how can I stop this button from appearing in new forums and insert a custom button which will point to the original WordPress page?
Please help me!

Is it the free theme on wordpress.org??

I am trying to delete everything from an import I didn’t like but hostgator is timing out when I try to delete forum with 82,258 posts. Even if I delete plugin and all files, reinstall, it brings back everything. Hostgator support doesn’t know how to help me with this. Any methods I can try to clear out my bbpress and start new so I can try the import again?
WordPress version 4.3.1
bbPress version 2.5.8

Error below:
ERROR 504 – GATEWAY TIMEOUT
The server that your request has reached is acting as a gateway or proxy to fulfil the request made by your client.
Web Browser => Web Front-End => Web Back-End
This server (Web Front-End) received an invalid response from an upstream (Web Back-End) server it accessed to fulfil the request.
In most cases this will not mean that the upstream server is down, but rather that the upstream server and the gateway/proxy do not agree on the protocol for exchanging data.
This problem is most commonly caused when there is a problem with IP communications between the Web Front and Back-Ends. Before you attempt to resolve this problem you should clear your browser cache completely.
@blacklavaa
No that is not what he meant.
When your users sign up to your site, you should be able to see the emails of the users in Users > All Users in your site WordPress backend.
@tomtower
Is that an extra avatar or just an image to show that the user donated?
This might be possible if you have something that tracks what users have donated. Like if the data was stored in the user meta table.
https://codex.wordpress.org/Database_Description#Table:_wp_usermeta
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/add_user_meta
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_user_meta
This might be considered custom development and you may need to hire a developer to create this for you.
Hi Denaize,
Any extras around bbPress are welcome. Let me know if you scripted something, or upload your plugin/theme to WordPress.org so others can benefit from it also.
Pascal.
It’s a shame. For 10x cheaper the author could 20 or 30x more orders…
To be great BBpress need only an ergonomic and simple input interface adapted to non-IT (no tag and html code visualisation, direct entry and final appearance ) as an ultra simplified tinyMCE.
+ attachement of course.
Finally I got bored , wordpress is great but does not have a simple but ergonomic forum 🙁 or not free at all !
I’ll take a little time for study how to improve the toolbar myself…but I am worried
That’s one of the downsides of taking the WordPress – bbPress – BuddyPress route. Either you’re gonna shell out a lot of cash for great plugins, or you add most of the functionality yourself and take a lot of time doing so. I’m going with a mixture of both time and money. When it comes to buying one plugin — cool. Then you start buying three or six, and your yearly costs skyrocket for just one site.
I’m looking to limit the “Edited by xxxx” to the last edit at the end of every post. I remember looking through the forum on the topic, and I found it suggested to another user to use WordPress’ own the_author and the_modified_time. This should work great, however, how do I include the revision notes from the last edit? In other words the reason a user adds for editing their post.
Hi denaize,
I did not try any of the below, but just to give you ideas:
For the smileys you could try https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-monalisa/
For attachments there is https://wordpress.org/plugins/gd-bbpress-attachments/
Hope this gets you started.
Pascal.
I am confused now, do you mean that only people who have wordpress can post on my forum? The intended users are just regular internet browsers, not people that would have wordpress.
Thanks for that idea but I’ve been through all of them, in several variants. I’m going to try to make a duplicate for my current left side bar with bbpress tools used for custom sidebars. If that works nobody will know the difference. My biggest problem is that when I build this site, at it’s permanent domain, I wanted to be able to hand it over in the most simple form possible. The fewer the plugins I have to explain the better.
I thought I had the forum issue nailed with WP Symposium until it wanted $99 before I could even add a file upload or subscribe to forum option.
This is my first time with WordPress and I love it to bits…other than right at this minute 🙂
Thanks again.
