Hello …

I’m using a theme called cheerapp that I purchased from Theme Forest. It has bbpress integrated. When I upgraded to bbpress 2.1, I received a fatal error: “Call to undefined function royal_login() in /wp-content/themes/cheerapp/header.php on line 69”

I found a comment on the theme’s support page from another user saying that he tweaked the functions.php to look like this:

if ( function_exists( 'bbpress' ) ) {
   $bbp = bbpress();

He mentioned that it had to do with the change from $bbp to bbpress().

This change got rid of my fatal error, but since then, whenever I try to click on a forum, it gives me a 404 error. The forums are there in my WordPress admin and it’s pointing to the correct URL, but I’m still getting these page not found errors.

I’m not sure if this is an issue with my theme or an issue with bbPress. I’ve tried to contact the theme creator but he is apparently on some extended vacation or something and isn’t responding to questions, and I’d really like to get my forums up and running again.

Any suggestions? Is there anything inherently bad with the tweak to the code I posted above? Any idea what could be causing those 404 errors?

Thanks in advance for any help you may have … Matt

Visiting the pemalinks page of the broken site, and clicking Save like I suggested above is how WordPress flushes out the rewrite rules, and replaces them with what should be a functioning set.

If the issue persists, it’s your theme or a plugin modifying the main query after bbPress is. This would most likely happen in the theme, or something hooked into a template action, probably by way of using the query_posts() function.

[John James Jacoby]

A few guesses.

• The theme is filtering every query that WordPress runs, and nooping the results.
• The theme is relying on output buffers, and isn’t cleaning up after itself correctly.

Either way, you were right to switch back to TwentyTen. If you paid for a theme, you’re hopefully paying for support. Ask the theme author what’s up, and see if they can track down the cause.

encountered an issue. I get this error:

> Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent by (output started at /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/bbpress-functions.php:12) in /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/htdocs/wordpress/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 934

Any idea what’s going on?

[matt_sich]

Hey! I got it to work! I just made a custom plugin with the BBP_Default class that you had in those public functions and just changed

$r = bbp_parse_args( $args, $defaults, 'list_forums' );

to

$r = wp_parse_args( $args, $defaults, 'list_forums' );

to make it work with the wordpress plugin version of bbp.

You should definitely submit this as a plugin!

John,

I’ve successfully restored the working version of the basic site at http://www.lamarzoccousa.com and followed the instructions for moving a wordpress install (which I’ve done a number of times before successfully), but though the appearance of http://www.lamarzoccousa.com/forums looks like it should initially, it presents a 404 error when trying to view any of the forums or users.

This is over my head, as I’ve been trying to solve this original issue for the last few days. Do you have any advice?

[matt_sich]

I don’t have a bbpress-functions.php in my wordpress theme (I forgot to mention that I’m using bbpress as a plugin.) is it just a file that I make myself? also, do I just include() it? or does bbpress have some way of connecting to it?

Thank you very much for all your help!

I am looking for the same thing : I’d like to be able to manage user access on a per forum basis.

Ie :
– Users A, B, C have access to forum 1
– Users C, D, E, have access to forum 2
– User A does not have access to forum 2
– User E does not have access to forum 1

I tried to look into the WordPress capabilities and roles management, but since a given user can only have one role, this does not solve my problem. In my example above, users B and C would not be able to access 2 different restricted forums.

I read somewhere on this forum (but can find where !) that user access management like this was planned for BBpress 2.1, but I realize this was not the case.

I searched for a plugin, with no luck. I also tried other WordPress forum plugins, some offer a feature like this, but I didn’t like the rest of what they offered in comparison with BBpress.

Any idea of a solution that would not be over-complicated ? Or is it a feature that’s being looked into for a future BBpress release ?

I’m using a WordPress theme that comes together with a bbPress theme, and it obviously doesn’t support the new bbPress version, so the Fancy Editor doesn’t show up at all when I activate it. How can I insert it manually?

I am using:
Wordpress Version 3.4.1
bbPress Version 2.1
BuddyPress Version 1.5.6
Tersus Theme Version 1.3 (http://themeforest.net/item/tersus-responsive-wordpress-theme/2343187)

I created a new Group, and then posted a new topic in that group. This is where the error is being thrown.

Here is a screenshot of what’s happening http://screencast.com/t/ZU0ohu061o4Q

Error says:

Fatal error: Call to undefined method stdClass::have_posts() in /home/…/…/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-reply-template.php on line 168

Notice also, that the page title being displayed is from one of the WordPress posts that came with auto-importing dummy data for the theme.

I know a link to the site would help, but I am working with a client who’s not comfortable getting the link out before site-live time. So, sorry about that.

I asked for help from WordPress Forum support, and was told that this was most probably a theme compatibility issue. So I went to the theme’s support forum.

Last night, the theme’s author/s were helpful enough to guide me through what I assume are the usual stuff in troubleshooting this kind of stuff.

Here are the things I’ve done so far:
1. Disabled all plugins apart from bbPress – this resulted to the forum giving me a 404
2. Enabled BuddyPress – this brought back the forums, but with the same issue
3. Emptied all sidebar widgets that have to do with the theme.
4. Used the other theme package (bbPress Twenty Ten).
5. Deleted the function referenced in the error. Led to some new error. This was a desperate, illogical attempt on my part so i undid that.
6. Deleted the wordpress post being shown in the page title. It just displayed the title of the next wordpress post in line.
Note: every time i check to see if that fixed it, i do a clear-cache-reload, just so i’m sure nothing in cache was giving me this headache.

I really hope someone could help out.. Has anyone seen this kind of error ever been documented elsewhere?

Hi John

That worked

Many thanks

Paul

[pimarts]

Great!

[TFUME]

Done: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1905

Thanks a lot

[Paul Bearne]

No it will just be a option the “link to” dropdown

[pimarts]

I use your plugin and bbPress, but I’m not using the bbPress profiles, so I hope I don’t have to write around this functionality you’re adding 😉

[John James Jacoby]

Try:

bbp_get_user_profile_url( $user_id )

…where $user_id is an integer.

Hi Guys

I am the author who looks after http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/author-avatars and I have been asked to add the option to link to bbpress profile verse the wordpress profile

Got my bit working

untill I got to here

if (function_exists('bb_get_profile_link')) {
    $link = bb_get_profile_link('id='.strval($user->user_id));
}

and found that I am get “undefined function bb_get_profile_link()” as this is a post/page and not a bbpress page so my guess that bbpress code is not loaded.

So what is the best way to get the profile URL / load this function?

Many thanks

Paul

Weird. If you could create a bug ticket on our trac would be great.

[Anonymous User 5853594]

There have been some changes in the repository to shift the “latest” to the plugin branche, so the links probably got broken there.

You can find the 1.1 branche here: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/branches/1.1.

[wvanderzee]

Hi there,

Like to download the stand alone version 1.1 as listed on: http://bbpress.org/download/legacy/. But the link doesn’t seem to exist.

FYI: At the moment, I have a forum running using the stand alone version. I’ve planned migrating it to WordPress/bbPress, but for now like a copy of the stand alone installation package.

Thanks!

Wouter

[Erlend]

Thanks for including SWNK in the examples list!

’twas my pleasure. Your forum does a very good job of being clean and readable, and you’ve clearly built a very active community around it.

NB bbPress site owners: You’ll want to follow this trac ticket to know when you can submit your bbPress-powered site to the official WordPress showcase.

The theme you are using ‘Nexus’ thinks that /forums is a WordPress page when in fact it is not and is reading the ‘subheader’ in this case ‘Suggestions’ from the last custom post type.

If you create a new WordPress page called ‘Forum’ and add the shortcode [bbp-forum-index] to this page and replace ‘Forums’ on your nav menu with the newly created ‘Forum’ page you should see the title now as ‘Forum’

You could also ask for help over at the Nexus support forum http://wpadaptive.com/forum/categories/nexus

Included with the plugin is a readme.html also other authors docs
