There could be a fix coming via BP Group Organiser plugin.

WP 3.4.2
BBPress Plugin – 2.2.2

1) Installed BBPress plugin. Did basic setting in admin for the plugin.
2) Copied archive-forum.php and single-forum.php from bbpress plugin directory to mytheme root directory.
3) Copied “css/bbpress.css” to mytheme root directory and then customized.
4) That’s it. I have not created any new template/page for the forum.

All look fine and working but I have this problem.

If you go to this link http://www.clouni.com/askquestions/

You will notice the title “Forums” in left side. How can I hide it ? If I understand correctly, it is page title generated through wordpress. But how to hide it only for forum pages and not other page in wordpress ??

Hello,

I have a clean install of
Wordpress 3.4.2 and
bbPress 2.2.2

When I activate the bbPress Plugin, I get the following message. Does anyone have an idea, how to fix this? thanks in advance.

Hi,

I installed bbpress on my website a few weeks ago, recently after plugin upgrade, i noticed that the forums topics no longer had the reply edit box, and the only thing i can see is a ‘comments are closed’ notification at the end. Previously it used to work correctly.

The website is http://www.funinfinite.com
Theme is atahualpa
Wordpress version is 3.4.2

use this plugin, it allows changing bbpress user role names and other bbpress standard text

I’m guessing I’ve just had an entirely different perspective. Many of my users are bbPress users. I don’t think I’ve once had a question regarding an issue between Members and bbPress. They just worked and everyone was in Happy La-la Land. 🙂

I definitely agree that multiple roles is the way to go. I just wish WordPress would support this in the UI for users out of the box or at least make it easier for us to do it. I’m not sure I’m sold on un-editable roles because some people just want to edit the caps of the bbPress roles. Of course, I deal with a higher number of people who like to dig in and get dirty with their WordPress installs.

Oh, definitely send over your feature requests for bbPress. I’m hoping to push out a major update for it early 2013.

@labsecrets

Cool. I’ll have to check it out.

[Shane Gowland]

What version of WordPress are you running? That error usually appears on WordPress 3.2 and older (current is WordPress 3.4.2)

[Shane Gowland]

I’m running bbPress on a WordPress Multisite install. Whenever a user with super admin rights attempts to create a new site (through /wp-signup.php, from the primary site), bbPress throws a PHP error.

Warning: array_keys() expects parameter 1 to be array, boolean given in/home/admin/public_html/beeforums.net/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/core/capabilities.phpon line 453Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/admin/public_html/beeforums.net/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/core/capabilities.php on line 453

The site creation completes successfully and there is no evidence that there is anything wrong. The errors are not shown when a non-superadmin creates a new site.

I’ve been able to reproduce this on two network installs, but they’re both on the same server so I’m not sure if this is caused by something specific on that server.

Can anyone reproduce?

I have filled out all the information correctly, and when I click Start, it tells me:

No posts to convert-

No tags to convert-

No topics to convert-

No forums to convert parents-

No forums to convert-

I have a standalone BBpress 1.02 installation, on a different database than my WordPress installation. But all on the same server.

I would like to update my old forum, because its now being attacked by spambots every day. I want to bring all my users and content over to my new BBPress 2.2.2 installation.

How do I do that?

[John James Jacoby]

@greenshady – Thanks for chiming in. Your Members plugin has always been our go-to while we sorted out Role/Capability issues in bbPress core.

Since 2.0, getting them dialed in and playing nicely with WordPress and Multisite has been a challenge. Creating update scripts for new functionality has a tendency to leave things in a semi-broken state, with some sites behaving, others not so much, and leaving users of bbPress powered communities sometimes wondering why certain functionalities of their accounts don’t work anymore.

Also, why can’t a blog Editor also be a Forum moderator? These are problems that should be solved with multiple roles, not with mapped blanket ‘moderator’ super capabilities like we tried to do previously.

I can’t say that storing roles and capabilities in the database is the entire problem, but moving to a dynamic setup like we have now all but eliminates the issues we’ve had the past year or so.

I appreciate you investigating things and updating Members. I haven’t had a chance to check out the updated version, but I have about a million feature requests for it. 🙂

Number of topics listed for each forum on my /forums page is not matching the number of topics in the forum!

It’s a recently installation so I only have 3 topics. and it’s saying there are 2…

I’m using the latest versions of wordpress and bbpress

Thanks!

Hi I was wondering what version of bbPress is in the GlotPress (here) I’m pretty sure it’s behind.

I’m trying to complete the Dutch one but in the reference files I see its referencing wrong (thus old?) folders like `bb-admin` instead of `admin`.

Also when using the `.pot` file that comes with bbPress it shows 952 strings while an exported version from the glot only shows 927 strings.

Is there any indication when the Glot gets updated? If it does get updated soon I will complete the Dutch Translation.

Not sure if you guys are still struggling, this far down the line. But in case you come back to the thread, we’ve created a video that will make it easy for you:

You should be able to do this inside your wordpress admin area, users > add user?

[Lynq]

I would suggest doing a google search for css dropdown menus – Once you know how you want to create your dropdown menu, then you can edit your bbPress 0r WordPress theme to add the menu in.

Good luck!

Making a child theme is beyond the scope of this forum, but there are plenty of good resources if you google “create a wordpress child theme”.  In a nutshell, you need “at least” to have a new folder, with a style.css file that references the proper header elements of your parent, including its name and the location of the parent theme’s style sheet.

If you are using the shortcode method, please try the default method instead, which is to change bbPress’s default root slug to something that is “NOT” an existing page (try “sitewide-forums” for example). This will allow you to keep your existing page / shortcut method index. Please show us what happens when you do this? (provide the URL)

There is a plugin that will accept WP post comments via a new forum topic… maybe not exactly what you wanted, but sounds like it might be interesting?

[Stephen Edgar]

When you are subscribed to a topic you will be emailed via WordPress of any new topic replies.

Favorites are like bookmarks and can be viewed/shared with other users on the site.

eg. Yours – https://bbpress.org/forums/profile/mia-pak/favorites/
Mine – https://bbpress.org/forums/profile/netweb/favorites/

Hi guys!

Having a huge struggle trying to make a custom loop in bbPress. I’ve tried to find the solution for 2 days no but I’ve had it. I’m too sucky at both wordpress and php to make it on my own.

So what i want to do is to make a loop for my front-page.php that contains all of the forums (I think). Like this

And for you who doesn’t understand swedish I want to grab all the forums (with description if possible), and for every forum I want to show a counter of both topics and replies. As well as I want to grab the most recent topic, display the author and the time it was published.

Now I might be able to do that i i just know how to make a loop like you do it in wordpress (). So if anyone can be a champ and point me in the right direction I’d be forever thankful!

Hey all,

I will be adding a Forum to an existing WordPress site, and I am familiar with both PHPBB and vBulletin, and I would like to use the “Category” features — where Forums are listed under an appropriate category.

I would like to use bbPress for the common look and feel, and single sign on four our users.

Can I set up Categories?

I wonder if anything has changed on this since last year.

I’ve got a WordPress Custom Taxonomy that i’d like the forum, topics and replys to be tagged with – has anyone ever got this working?

[Noodle Man]

Hello! I’m not very good at HTML, scripting and the like, and I was wondering if there was a plugin for the following.

On some websites, when you move your cursor over a button (much like the WordPress pages links) a menu drops down with other links. When you are logged in on bbPress, the same happens when you move your cursor over your Username. I would like the same, just with pages, rather than a username.

I’m having this exact same problem. Unfortunately my WordPress page does not win when I set them to the same slug. Because of this, I want to use different slugs for my WordPress page that contains the shortcode and my Forums Base. This works just fine, the only problem is in the breadcrumb the “Forums” link takes the user to the forum index instead of the WordPress page with the shortcode.

hi,

i’ve just installed bbpress 2.2 (released 19th november 2012) on a clean install (no other plugins have been activated) of wordpress 3.4.2. However, whenever a reply is added to a topic the browser is redirected to a 404 not found page. When i navigate back to that topic the reply has been added however. I’m using the default template without any modifications. Anyone know whats going on and how to solve this issue?

Thanks in advance
