Hello,

when I set someone to forum role ‘moderator’, he’s displayed as ‘Super-Administrator’ on his profile and in the forum.
Why is that? I haven’t done any changes at the bbpress installation.

Wordpress: 3.5.1
BBPress:  2.2.4

Thanks in advance for any advices!

I don’t really know what this issue is called. I created several forums here and, for some odd reason, when I generate a new forum, it gives me a permalink with the name of the forum plus a number, like so: http://www.happynakedpeople.co/forums/forum/leaflet-2/. There is no other forum named Leaflet and I would like the permalink to be as clean as possible. When I try to change the permalink to just `/leaflet/` it defaults back to `/leaflet-2/`. Why is this?

I am using WordPress 3.5.1, bbPress 2.2.4, and my theme is built around Starkers 4.0.

Looks like it will add many things I don’t need.

I am surprised wordpress\bbpress\s2member doesn’t have a plugin to shut down a site based on users time zone.

Wordpress has a plugin: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/use-clients-time-zone/

this one picks up users time zone from their ip.

I was not able to find a plugin that will shut down a site based on the time of day?

I am looking to make my site unavailable from 10pm-6am for any user, no matter which time zone they are in.

Never mind. I found this in another post. Going to try it out.

Sorry for people that waiting, passed 7+ days from approved but theme is still waiting for WordPress.Org publish.  Its probably my fault that i released some newer versions before it gets published. I cant give a date but at least theme will be in WordPress.Org soon.

Meanwhile you can check my example child-theme: http://theme.firmasite.com/example.zip
This theme;

• adds Flatstrap custom style to theme style list
• selects it automatically
• removing default default bootstrap style from list.

You can edit this child-theme however you want 🙂

I allow the BuddyPress groups on my WordPress to create forums however for every group that gets created I get another forum added to my bbPress page (mydomain.com/forums/).

How do I hide the forums from individual groups on the main forums page?

Note: all these forums are children of a “Group Forum” category.

Thank you!

As per above can you please create a bug ticket on trac https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/

We need as much detail as possible so detailed step by step instructions will help us to recreate the bug and find a solution.

Plugins in the old version of bbpress need to be uploaded by ftp, there’s no button or search for that. I advise you install wordpress and use the latest bbpress plugin version instead, even if you don’t want to use wordpress. I just converted from the standalone version a few weeks ago and I’m glad I did.

Why would you want to install a version that’s not supported anymore, when you have the option to start fresh with the latest version? You’ll run into a lot of problems eventually so might as well do it now.

[fontadoni]

Create a new wordpress page called “registration” (or whatever you wish to call it). On that new page add the shortcode [bbp-register] and publish it. Then add the link to the new page you just created on the sidebar widget, for example: your site.com/registration/

Here’s a list of all the shortcodes you can use: https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/

[bergblume]

ok! I solved it now!

how?
I copied my header.php and renamed it to header-activity.php
in this file I copied the following code in the

in my index.php I`ve replaced
“
with
“

I hope it helps s.o. else with the same problem of using the post-box as stand-alone on any other wordpress-site!

I have just installed BBpress 2.2.4 into WordPress 3.5.1

I have a login widget on my sidebar.
In this widget there is a field for a URL that will take new (unregistered) users to a registration page.
What is this URL? If it is specific to my site, how do I create/define it?

Add new roles with a roles plugin. You don’t have to use code. See: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/members

Hello,

I am using WordPress 3.5.1 and bbPress 2.2.4

Site: http://meditationpracticeornot.com/

I added a new keymaster user to create forums and when they login the option to create a new forum is not listed. I was previously using User Role Editor and the s2member plugin, I removed them because of other issues, but I am still having problems. Any help is appreciated. If any additional info is needed let me know. Thank You

The widget works fine on the home.php. But when I load it on my category.php it shows recent posts from wordpress, not recent forum posts. Can someone help me and tell me why?

[Sergio De Falco]

Hi people,

It’s possible because I have seen it, but how-to insert breadcrumbs before page title in bbPress (without using css)?

The title is handled by Worpdress, but if I add

php bbp_breadcrumb

before the title in a custom content-forum.php page, it doesn’t work.

Using a thirdy part plugin (like WordPress SEO by Yoast) will work, but in some pages I see Topics, not forums in the breadcrumbs (maybe due to the post_type), and it’s not really “clean”.

Who can help ne?

Thanks 🙂

FAQ – https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-in-your-language/

The following shows the current progress of bbPress translation to French for the ‘dev’ & ‘2.2.x’ versions:

https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/dev
11% – 111 Translated – 879 Untranslated – 628 Waiting

https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/2.2.x
% – 0 Translated – 952 Untranslated – 533 Waiting

So quite a few are done but needs an authorised ‘validator’ to approve the ‘waiting’ translations.

You can contact your local translation time via https://fr.wordpress.org/contact/ to find out who the bbPress validators are or if no luck request to become a validator yourself via https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/

I am pretty sure this plugin has something with setting the forum hours.

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-vip-support-plugin/

It hasn’t been updated in a while but there is an unofficial update on GitHub

Hi all

I have installed BBPress version 1.2 to act as a standalone forum alongside my online shop http://folliclehealth.com/forum/ (we don’t have WordPress installed). I created it in a separate folder so it doesn’t interfere with the main website.

Everything has gone brilliantly but I have found that there is no Install plugin button in the admin area.

Is this normal and if so, how am I supposed to integrate plugins (eg anti-span, etc)?

Please advise.

hello all

I am enjoying working with wordpress/bbpress/s2member on a new website.

I would like to make the forum unavailable to users from 10pm-6am. This will depend on the users time zone.

Is this possible?

Thank you

hello all

I am enjoying working with wordpress/bbpress/s2member on a new website.

I would like to limit all users time, except for admin, to 1 hour per day.

Is this possible?

Thank you

Did anyone help you out here?

Have to say bbPress support is absolutely useless – It’s a pity.

Perhaps someone could start an “unofficial” support forum where people actually do provide support other than:

– Ignore the issue
– Blame the issue on WordPress
– Blame the issue on WordPress theme

Hope someone can help with this simple request -How to insert a text (like adsense for example) above and below the forum page !!!

Well, this hack (https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1478#comment:7) correct the 404 error :
`
function fix_bbp_404() {
global $wp_query;

if ( $wp_query->bbp_is_single_user ||
$wp_query->bbp_is_single_user_edit ||
$wp_query->bbp_is_view
) {
$wp_query->is_404 = false;
// Unset nocache_headers
foreach( wp_get_nocache_headers() as $name => $field_value ) {
@header( “{$name}: ” );
}
// Set status 200
status_header( 200 );
}
}
add_action( ‘wp’, ‘fix_bbp_404’ );
`

I tried the trunk version but didn’t get any result… Hack above fix the issue… even if it return wrong title.

Ok so after a while I thought this might actually be a plugin issue instead, after deactivating and re-activating them one by one, WordPress SEO turned out to be the culprit. All works fine now!

Hi,

I have a new installation of WP/Buddypress that I’ve installed and I have a question regarding Group Forums. For some reason I am not seeing the “Notify me of follow-up replies via e-mail” checkbox that should appear below the “tags” option as seen in these forums as well as here:

http://mercime.files.wordpress.com/2011/11/bp-forums-19.gif

Driving me nuts. Is there a way to turn this feature on? What am I missing?
