Hi
I have 6 forums. I’d like to display 3 of them on one page and the other 3 on anoter page in WordPress. I thought that I could use the shortcode [bbp-single-forum id=32] but when using this, the single forum is added to the page but it’s already expanded showing all the topics within that forum. Is there a way to show single forums but in a collapsed format?

Thanks for any help that you can offer (I’m not a programmer, so please keep replies easy for a non techie 😀)

Thanks – David

If I could add my plugin to this really old thread, it does exactly what was asked in the OP. https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-voting/

I suspect 6.1 will break lots of things – I’ve have updated my test site and wordpress doesn’t like the menus I have with a twenty ten theme 🙂

I’d suggest you wait for 6.1.1 to see if they bug fix things.

Hello

wordpress 6.1
bbpress 2.6.9

I have been using the ‘bbpress toolkit’ link to manage member/poster subscriptions to the forum as well as to the individual topics.

Today when i try to upgrade wordpress from 6 to 6.1 my site broke and i lost access to it ven through cPanel and the hosting providers clinet log in dashboard. After hours of troubleshooting found out the above mentioned plugin which hasn’t been updated in 5 years is causing the site to break. Once the plugin is disabled the site updates fine and works just as it was before.

My question is, are there any other plugins that i can use to manage member subscriptions to threads and posts? It is not a paid website but it is a member only website and the primary concern is to unsubscribe members who are no longer welcomed from getting any notifications or copies of posts/replies.

Thank you.

Here is the test result.
This test email proves that your WordPress installation at https://santarosaphotographicsociety.org can send emails.\n\nSent: Wed, 02 Nov 2022 17:11:43 +0000
Notify me of reply checkbox has always worked it’s the subscriptions which don’t. I also have bbp stylepack installed which has subscription settings so I don’t know if there is a conflict?
thx

start by installing

Check & Log Email

and enabling logs – this will tell you if your site is sending

[ianhaneybs]

I’m worried if I deactivate the plugins, it will break the site and not knowing enough about wordpress I don’t want to mess it all up and have to start it all again

I had another go and doing one at a time and checking the front end and after enabling each one, the forum page is blank apart from having the header and footer

The only time the forum page displays correctly is when I enable the advanced custom fields plugin but unsure if that helps as I need to logout as admin to then see if solves the issue but then same happens as I’m not logged in as admin any more

I’m getting bit confused on what to do and unsure what plugin if any is causing the issue or if it’s the theme as getting quite lost to be honest as I don’t use wordpress often

ok, your issue was if I understood it that the bbpress login sent you to the wordpress login?

[Robin W]

I was going to say, do you think it could be because the bbpress plugin has only been tested up to wordpress version 5.9.5 and I am using 6.0.3?

bbpress works fine with 6.0.3

Thank you, I’ll try the health check plugin.

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Theme Support

This should be the first tab you see.

Tick the support option.

[Robin W]

ok, suspect that the membership plugin or another plugin is affecting that.

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

Health Check & Troubleshooting

Then come back

The issues I am having with it is below

1) On https://beechwoodsolutions.co.uk/sites/tftdirectorysite/forums/forum/forum/ I login and it redirects me to the wordpress default login page at https://beechwoodsolutions.co.uk/sites/tftdirectorysite/wp-login.php but if I click back in the browser, it has logged me in and I can post a new topic but don’t want front end users to see the default wordpress login page, I just want them to login and then create a new topic

Will that plugin bbp style pack solve the issue I am having with it?

[Robin W]

I have already got simple membership plugin installed and understand bbpress can integrate with it but not having much joy with it.

generally? or just the issues below?

I want users to login to the forum to be able to create a topic which then can be approved by admin if that is possible?

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>moderation>tick and save

then in

dashboard>settings>forums set to moderate all posts, but below that only moderate topics

Can bbpress work with simple membership plugin so users don’t have to sign up again to use bbpress forum if they want to post a topic? If so how do I set it up please?

once signed in with simple membership, they should be able to do this

After installing a plugin among those proposed by wordpress as an update, I can no longer access the blog and this message appears

Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_installing() in D:\inetpub\webs\ramonfonst-schermait\wp-content\plugins\bbpress\includes\core\options.php on line 272

how can i recover access?

[Robin W]

I’m not a bbpress author, just someone who helps out here. I can’t remember fully, but I have it in the back of my mind that there is an issue with that many forums, but don’t have time to set up 79 test forums to find out what it was.

Then simplest solution would be to amend the page to show all the forums

install

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Forum Display

and set item 11

I have read on here all day and tried some additional css doing amongst other things that have been suggested…I cannot for the life of me get rid of the bbPress Forum title on the following page…
https://hookdgear.com/forums
Any suggestions? I did not initially create a forum page as I simply went through the forums section in wordpress to create the forum layout…I create a page with a permalink to /forums to see if that helped but the title is still there…thank you in advance for your help

bbpress just uses worpdress posts, so it should work.

BUT ensure you can restore if it does something funny !!

Thanks for the response I have read through the Codex. I knew i wasn’t being very clear lol.

I created a Board Admin Role in Memberpress and assigned the roles needed for wordpress permissions i wanted the role to have.

The problem is, I can clone Keymaster, which is a bbPress Role, but it doesn’t show up in Forum Roles dropdown, I can give forum permissions, but by giving edit user she can edit site admin, if i restrict edit user, she can’t manage users.

I am looking for a way to restrict access to upper-level site admin, while having certain admin, yet needs Full admin rights in Forum, but not the ability to accidentally delete or change higher admin roles and create or manage lower level bbPress forum roles.

Basically, I Need a MODERATOR Role with adjusted Admin Privileges and forum roles that can still perform role functions based on their level rather than just on or off, weighted capabilities with if statements that disables edit links or delete links unless the weighted role is below the administrator that is performing the tasks.

This needs to be something that each role has the same ability to adjust for each role, like you would have in tech support with tech support roles but 3 tiers of tech support levels vs customer service vs billing department. Customer Service and billing have access to user profile to view, however billing can only see user address and phone number and payment information, customer service can only see name, phone, email, previous tickets, plan type and tier 3 tech support can see everything that customer service can see plus ipaddress, database, files where tier 2 can see tier 3 level plus has the ability to backup or reboot, where tier 1 can see and do everything… except travel agency type stuff with boards.

Good day to all the wonderful devs,

Site: https://h99.cd7.myftpupload.com/

I am Running Current:
Wordpress 6.0.3
PHP 8.0

Plugins:

MemberPress Members 3.2.1
BBPress 2.6.9

My questions:

#1 I am working on a travel agent site for my wife which will include the forums. I will be the main site admin and primary Keymaster, however i want to add a secondary keymaster for her. However i want to make it so she has access to use certain admin tools on the wp-admin dashboard which i have done using Memberpress Members Roles. However i dont want her to have full keymaster in BBPress.

So, the idea in thought is Primary Keymaster has obvious full permissions, secondary Keymaster has full rights as well but not the ability to modify the primary keymaster.

Currently I have Primary Keymaster which is also Site Full Admin, Secondary Keymaster, named Board Admin.

I still want the Board Admin to have Admin rights to Dashboard Menus but not the ability to edit the Keymaster like it shows for the current BBPress Roles with only view ability. I think I wrote that right.

#2 BBPress Forum page login for general users. Currently BBPress sends registration and login to the wp-admin page to login. Is there a way to edit the forum link to use another page by having the login shortcode embedded into a page of choice, same question for Profile. Currently the edit profile link on the forum takes users directly to the wordpress profile rather than their forum profile, what am i missing for the redirect?

Thank you in advance for the patience and assistance.
I have created a few websites for myself, but learning the plugin dev stuff and theme editing, still infantile.. lol

I already broke her site once and had to delete everything and start over.

single login, so not sure why @billz88 has a problem.

Woocomerce, bbpress and wordpress all use same login
