BBpress has reduced the text editor to a minimal one that is really sub-par, in my opinion. I would really like to use something like a TinyMCE version that works for all of the users. There is this one, set up for bbpress, but only authors and above see it: http://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-enable-tinymce-visual-tab/

We are an arts org and we need to have good ways to share visual content. I loaded GD BBPress Attachments which is fine for uploading images and docs, but you can’t insert them into the text: http://www.dev4press.com/plugin/gd-bbpress-attachments/

I found this one: http://premiumsoftware.net/CLEditor/Index, but it’s not as nice as the TinyMCE ones that I’ve used and it shows the bbpress one (the minimal one) right above it, so that is confusing, too. Do you have any recommendations of what would work well for us?

We’re using the latest updates of bbPress, etc.

I’m pretty savvy (even though I don’t write code) and I don’t even know what “ol” means, much less the other artists who are using our forum…

hi there. the problems seems to be not a normal behaviour. dont know why, but on a testpage i have no problems.

i think thats this behaviour has nothing to do with my theme. perhaps with the following:
– wordpress with german language file
– many plugins installed

someone can help me? do you need more information?

Hi

I’ve got a problem with custom functions. I would like to modify tag link, but I can’t find proper file to put add_filter in. I tried functions.php in the:
template directory, bbpress/, bbp-themes-compat/, bbp-themes/, bbp-twentyten/, but with no luck. I also created my-plugins/plugin.php but where do I find that plugin in the wordpress admin menu?

Second question: is that bbp_get_tag_link or something else? I can’t find proper documentation for that.

Hi, how can I remove the sidebar from my forum page? I’m trying to get a full width page for the forums. I’m using the 2012 default WordPress theme, http://goo.gl/kC0X2

Kindly advise.

Thanks!

I am attempting to import bbpress 1 forum into the new bbpress plugin on a new site using the Import Forums tool in WordPress. I successfully did this in a test – once. I tried to do another test and haven’t been able to do it again successfully. When I start the conversion I get the yellow box at the bottom “Starting Conversion” and the turning wheel… the wheel keeps turning… an hour later, it’s still turning. It’s not progressing. I have to quit out of it. There is no new data in the DB. What is the issue here?

FYI: I have looked at Debugging in WordPRess.

I did install the “debug bar” but the amount of queries and info after a post is not telling me why it did not post.

Are there other factors that can make it that such a post will not be posted?
(ie. mod_secure on the webserver, etc – any logs I can snoop through, etc)

Hi there,
I am new to BBPress & would like to know the answer to a few questions please.

1: My current WordPress website uses a 3rd party plugin called “Capability Manager Enhanced” which allows my visitors to register to access specific content. I have created and named these user catagories:
Light
Standard
Professional users

I have created 3 forums on BBPress with the name names – Light, Standard and Professional customer forums. Will it be possible to use a 3rd party plugin to only allow specific user roles to access one of these forums?

Thank you

It just a plugin for WordPress!

[McMinnville_Mike]

I’m helping some friends with their website. I set it all up using WordPress and BBPress and they have asked me if I could setup a moderator user roll for the forum that would give a user limited powers but allow them to open / close / lock threads. Is there a plugin for this, or a way to set that up in BBPress already? I looked around in the plugin settings but don’t see that option anywhere.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have a section in my bbPress Forums (bbPress 2.3.2 + WordPress 3.5.2) related to SQL.
So … users will post SQL example code, but it appears bbPress is simply rejecting the entire post, without even a warning.

Is this a “standard” filtering by bbPress (to avoid injections)?
Is there a way around this limitation?
Does it involve only a few keywords/characters?

(Yes; I did try Google and searching this forum)

Any help or insight would be very much appreciated 🙂

Hey guys!

I’m using the genesis framework with the Metro childtheme (http://d1021797-400.nedlook.com/airsoftclubnederland.nl/forums/) and Metro has these (imo) cool big titles. But its really unneeded on the forums.

I already know I can put the CSS file in my theme folder but when I mod the title attribute, the titles on normal pages and will also be smaller. Its not being restricted to bbPress as both (WordPress and bbPress) use the same title attribute.

Where can I add a class to the bbPress titles? I imagine I need to modify a core file somewhere.

That way I can simply copy the CSS from the metro title and put something like: div class bbpresstitle in front of it and make it so that only bbPress uses that bit of CSS.

Hello,

Could anyone point me in the right direction so I can identify the filters used in bbpress so that I might remove wptexturize?

I have identified those required for WordPress itself, but bbpress appears to use different filters. The WordPress ones I successfully used are:

remove_filter( ‘the_title’, ‘wptexturize’ );
remove_filter( ‘the_content’, ‘wptexturize’ );
remove_filter( ‘the_excerpt’, ‘wptexturize’ );
remove_filter( ‘comment_text’, ‘wptexturize’ );

Which I added to functions.php of a child theme.

I then identified what I thought were the required filters in bbpress from here:

http://etivite.com/api-hooks/bbpress/trigger/apply_filters/bbp_get_topic_content/

…and added the following to functions.php to no effect:

remove_filter( ‘bbp_get_reply_content’, ‘wptexturize’);
remove_filter( ‘bbp_get_topic_content’, ‘wptexturize’);

These filters do not work, so I assume they are not the correct ones. Any ideas what the correct filters are?

Thank you!

It’s a plugin for WordPress so you’d install with your current website. The domain would be something like mywebsite.com/forums

The style will be inherited by whatever WordPress theme you’re using.

Hello,

I was wondering if it is possible to set up a private support forum via BB Press and if so how much would it cost. Would it matter if the website is not WordPress version?

Hi, Im real new to wordpress and bbpress. I have a similar issue with the bbpress sidebar not showing up. I have my forum page setup as a static page and would like to have a sidebar to login etc… can you help?

[Martyn_]

With BWM the fancy wordpress editor breaks for me – you are unable to switch between visual and text modes.

Versions:

Better WordPress Minify 1.2.2
bbPress 2.3.2
bbPress Enable TinyMCE Visual Tab 1.0.0
GD bbPress Tools 1.4
buddypress 1.7.3 (not relevent I think)

I’ve no idea how to debug this but can post more – does anyone have a fix/workaround?

I have trying to find a way for all users to upload images and embed them into the post not attach. Any suggestions?

[CooperDevon]

Hi,
i getting an error in WordPress
Notice: bbp_setup_current_user was called incorrectly. The current user is being initialized without using $wp->init(). Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information. (This message was added in version 2.3.) in /var/www/vhosts/xxxxx/httpdocs/wp-includes/functions.php on line 2962

How can this be fixed?

[filmmannen]

This solved itself partly when I removed the User Role Editor and replaced it with the plugin Members – then i where able to administer the administrators rights. And i where able to get the bbpress updated to the newest edition without loosing control over it.

However im still unable to restore my topics and replies list in the forum. I have three .xml backups of the forum, the topics and the replies, but i struggle with getting them back up again.

And it may be that the .xml files isn’t enough?

Anyone know of a good .xml importer for the bbpress? To get my forums back online, or is this case lost?

All right, I haven’t used bbPress without BuddyPress for a long while and forgot that avatars aren’t a native option. This plugin seems to work very well:

Hi,

I did a large migration about a year ago (20,000 total topics and replies). You will definitely have timeout problems with an import that large, what I did was import items separately like so: users first then forum 1 topics, forum 1 replies, forum 2 topics, forum 2 replies and so on.

Of course back then there wasn’t an importer and we had to rely on custom scripts for all of it. The script was also run outside of WordPress/bbPress in an effort to stop timeouts. We also ran post-meta separately and did not attempt to transfer passwords (this was a migration from DNN/Microsoft SQL server so it wasn’t possible to retain passwords).

I am happy to help with specific question, I do agree it is a timeout issue.
