Hello,
I have been searching for something very similar. The “plugin author” label on all the plugin pages on wordpress.org is what I am after. The “plugin contributor” option too would be useful. Although I don’t want the text as it is, but this ability to label to indicate the users importance within a forum is essential to my project. My issue is that they Keymaster, participant, ect ect labels are useless as the forum master wont have any moderation/admin capabilities. So i need to be able to select a user to have a custom label like “offical representative”. I was looking at the code above, but I’m not sure if it would work as I need, and across a multisite install.
I guess I am asking the same question, but is there a plugin that can allow a user to be given a unique label in the forum per site?
Thanks in advance for any responce

Hello everyone
Sorry for asking a simple question, but i have just spent an hour figuring out how to increase the font-size in the html text editor. That is, the one we use to make replies or post topics. I don’t think it is related, but the font size is also very small when I submit a quick message on the Activity page in BuddyPress, ut just saying if somebody knows something about it.
I am using WordPress 3.8.1, Fruitful theme and WP USer frontend. The font size is small only on the Activity page in BuddyPRess and in bbpress. The comment section and WP user frontend seem to work fine picking up the 14px font size from my theme. To remind you, I am talking about the html editor, not the visual editor (which doesn’t even show up in topic/reply fields, I believe)
Thank you in advance!
Hi all.
What can be done to get bbpress page load faster ? What are best practices ? Is there a tutorial I have missed ?
It appears as if I have a redirection-problem, where my browser is stalling ?
Is there still a gravatar-issue where I have to remove some code for speed optimization ?
What ressources can be cached with htaccess or otherwise ?
And so on …. ?
BBpress is really looking better and better and the bbpress-for-wordpress-comments in 2.6 feature would be quite a fix for wordpress which doesnt even have an edit feature for commenteers. I like how things have gone so far. But seriously – SPEED, SPEED, SPEED.
I am definately no coder just an annoying end-user. But it is simply not decent for such a relatively simple set of functionalities to be so slow as it appears to me. I simply cannot annoy forum members with such page loads and also making wordpress load slower with bbpress installed.
What is a boy to do if he really would like to use bbpress ?
Thanks for anything.
‘I have probably checked 100 times if this is ticked’
Thanks, but always worth asking.
‘This is the default bbPress theme. ‘
No I meant the wordpress theme you are using. switch to one such as twenty eleven to see if that makes a difference
How you solve ? the problem becouse me I have the same problem…..
Everybody can see my forum but when a users log in all forum dissapear.
If i Log in with Admin don’t disappear.

Hello Robin,
I’m missing this toolbar:
it’s not available on my site:
I have the newest versions of WordPress and bbPress and have done this steps to fix this problem but nothing happened:
I have deleted every JavaScript and tested it. Nothing!
I deleted the code of the function.php. Nothing!
I deactivated every plug-in. Nothing!
…and the CSS can’t be the fault because the toolbar is not disabled. It’s not there.
I opened my forum for guests and created a test forum. Now you can take a look on it: http://plusthemes.de/forum/test
Thank you so much for your answer. I try to give as much information as possible. 🙂
That function calls wp_get_current_user() so it might be related to the $current_user global. WordPress’s get_currentuserinfo() function calls wp_set_current_user() which overrides the global with fresh data.
It’s plausible some other plugin is loading the current user too early, or that it’s trying to initialize WordPress more than once via a subsequent call to $wp->init().
It’s unlikely that bbPress is directly causing this, as bbPress doesn’t do any of the above things on its own. It does however reference currently logged in user data quite liberally using WordPress’s built in API functions, so it’s not entirely impossible.
Keep us posted, and we’ll try to help out where we can.
Ok, so this theme has an upmarket homepage.
Since this is a paid theme, with paid support, I’d suggest you go to their website for help, they should be familiar with bbPress and know how to get it to work with your theme.

This is the way this feature is currently designed. Hierarchical pagination is quite challenging to tackle; WordPress provides some help with this, but it wasn’t built into our first pass, and no work has gone into improving it since.
I have never seen any response from the devs/leaders of the bbpress team themselves, seems only volunteers
I have a few thousand replies that hopefully help prove otherwise, and sorry that your experience so far hasn’t lived up to that. Know that there’s a staff of about 12 of us that volunteer our time to both develop the software, write the documentation, and moderate the forums, and though we don’t hit every topic, we try to help out where we can.
I’d love to review what you have, and help get it into bbPress core properly.
Can you attach your progress to this trac ticket: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/459
It’s a feature we’ve talked about in some fashion for the past… oh… 7 years or so. 🙂
JJJ, totally agree, but until someone writes one, this is a quick and dirty method to achieve it !
(and for me to get rid of that horrible “keymaster” name !)
ps, if you want a count any combination of topics, replies or total posts under the role, then this plugin does that ! Gives a sort of rank.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-topic-count/
I might expand it to give ranks one day !
Users have both a site role and a forum role, and those are the specific terms used within wordpress and bbPress, respectively. Thank you for your concern, but I believe I understand the difference. I’ve never seen any reference to the word rank, but it would undoubtedly alleviate some confusion if bbPress were to use that term in place of forum role.
I would like to be able to allow forum users to earn ranks and titles like achievements. Notable badges or icons everyone can see. I think it would add a lot of depth to the forum, but maybe bbPress is not the best tool for that.

Wordpress 3.8.1
bbPress just installed
I have tried several times to create my first forum. Every time the same error occurs:-
“You are not allowed to edit this post.”
Huh??
‘So the pagination works fine on a standalone page, but if you embed it on your wordpress homepage, it’d fail. ‘
Is this a statement or a question?
What theme are you using?
and can you respond to previous questions
Where have you put the shortcode? on the homepage, on a page or on a post?
and where would you like the shortcode to go on the homepage, on a page or on a post?
I’ll then try to help you further.
offhand I’d say yes, more likely buddypress, try the support forums there and come back if needed.
You should give them the wordpress, bbpress and buddypress versions, any plugins you have and what theme you are using
https://buddypress.org/support/
It turns out it is an issue wiht Another WordPress Classifieds Plugin (AWPCP).
Thanks for the replies, Robin W 🙂
So the pagination works fine on a standalone page, but if you embed it on your wordpress homepage, it’d fail.
It’s not that I have a page called “Topics,” the pagination simply uses the Topics Started slug. Even if I make a standalone page with bbp-topic-index, the pagination will still pick use Topics Started slug.
Because of this problem, I think a better solution would be to simply get rid of pagination for the shortcode, bbp-topic-index. Do you happen to know the temple file for that shortcode?
@satrya
Looks like you’ve done the research – I have added your comments to the tracticket
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2175
and we’ll see if the experts reckon that’s the fix and put it in the next release
I have been on your site 6 times, and seen the error twice. It comes and goes, so is unlikely to be pure code related, as that stuff either works or doesn’t.
There seems to be a bit of buz about at the moment about a similar error, in particular for go-daddy customers
eg
http://www.cryoutcreations.eu/forums/t/fatal-error-cannot-call-overloaded-function-fowp-includesuser-php-on-line-217
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/fatal-error-1002?replies=14
although both refer to a different line, and maybe entirely unrelated, but posted just in case.
Let us know if this is you also?
Hi! I’ve just installed bbPress (so it should be the last version) and I have the last version of WordPress too. After installing bbPress I keep getting this error in like 90% of the times I refresh my page: Fatal error: Cannot call overloaded function for non-object in /home/xxxxxxxxx/public_html/wp-includes/class-wp.php on line 529
My website is http://www.travelersuniverse.com/
This error does not occur when bbPress is not installed.
Many thanks!
Hi, I’m using a wordpress theme, Brooklyn, that includes a contact section on all the pages including the bbpress forum I added. The contact section I designed uses shortcode the theme came with, but on the bbpress forum page the shortcode does not work. Instead the text of the shortcode is written out. I tried changing this to html instead of shortcode in the theme, but then it stack the icons into one column.
Does anyone have suggestions on how bbpress can recognize the shortcode for the theme.
Thank you,
Matt
@stagger-lee I just tested the code from https://codex.bbpress.org/enable-visual-editor/ and it worked fine.
You could also try the following as a plugin, it has options to enable the full editor, though it sounds like you don’t want this so don’t enable it.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-enable-tinymce-visual-tab/
Thanks for pointing this out. I’ve raised a trac ticket
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2553
so a developer should pick this up at some stage
Thanks again
Would appreciate feedback since it seems development has stalled. bbPress 2.6 is 5 weeks overdue according to trac:
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/milestone/2.6
There are only 40 tickets outstanding which is inline with previous releases so I don’t think the number of outstanding tickets is the cause (being so large in number that it would cause the delay).
And it has been more than 3 months since the last major release (2.5). The previous one before that (2.4) was released in a 3 month interval.
bbPRess 2.6 ??????????????????
bbPRess 2.5 November 25th 2013 (3 months)
bbPress 2.4 September 2nd 2013 (5 months)
bbPress 2.3 April 14th 2013 (5 months)
I’m not really quibbling over 3 months or 5 months or 5 weeks overdue, more than any of these it is the lack of activity and movement in clearing out tickets on trac that moves me to post this.
