Hi

I’m also looking to do this – move my buddypress install to a new url. Is it possible to export/import everything? Do I just need to copy the tables from WordPress?

Regards

Just switched a Genesis based site I’m developing from 2.0 to 2.1-r3774. I was a bit confused by the broken templates, but then realized the Genesis code had been pulled out and found and installed Jared’s BBPress Genesis extend (0.8.1) plugin which now makes everything is look good OOTB again.

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-genesis-extend/

There are only a dozen dummy posts and _no_ custom templates yet so I wouldn’t really expect it to explode, but I start customizing forum templates in a few days and it seemed to make sense to start with 2.1.

I would like to disable ahref tags in the forum posts so users cannot add links to external websites within a post. In addition to that, I would also like to stop the automatic phrasing of links. For instance, if someone enters ‘http://www.bbpress.org’ I would like it to appear as plain text instead of a clickable link.

I made a plugin as mentioned by ‘jonich0n’ in the following post but it is not working:

How can I disable HTML in posts?

I uploaded this plugin in my wordpress plugins folder and then activated it from the wordpress ‘installed plugins’ page. Is there where it is supposed to be uploaded?

Since this topic tops Google SERP, just to note that for bbPress 2.0 (ie. bbPress as a WordPress plugin), there is a plugin bbPress Digest that does something similar as requested in first post.

I ended up overwriting my installed bbpress files with new ones via FTP. JJJ says you should delete all bbpress files and then write the new ones there.

I was testing and got the same error message using the standard upload (didn’t use the plugin you have listed) but after I clicked on Installed Plugins and went back to try it again, it went through fine. At that point, I see two bbpress installs listed with the 2.0.2 version active and 3786 inactive.

Very strange.

[intimez]

I’m testing with the following:

wordpress3.3.1, buddypress1.5.4, bbpress2.1r3786

After activating buddypress and then going all the way up to the forum part, what exactly is the step to get it configured? I do not want to use Group Forums. I click on Install Site Wide Forums it tells me it is installed.

This was a problem before the 2.1 beta so …

What is being done in the 2.1 beta that addresses this?

How should users configure it via upload if they are not using plugin search?

I installed bbPress 2.0.2 on my WordPress 3.3.1 site and I can’t get the shortcodes to work. If I add a shortcode to any of the forums it just shows the [shortcode].

http://www.rmminc.org/forums is blank the forums I created don’t show up on the page.

Below are two forums I setup

http://www.rmminc.org/forums/forum/homelessness

http://www.rmminc.org/forums/forum/poverty

Woot! Found it. I literally opened every .css file on my site (252 files) and searched. Turns out, the Gantry Framework css/wordpress.css file had the following code in it:

/* Other */

.rt-wordpress tr.even td {padding: 5px;background: #666666;border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd;}

.rt-wordpress tr.odd td {padding: 5px;background: #333333;border-bottom: 1px solid #ddd;}

That was overwriting the code in the bbpress.css file.

Mark this one as closed.

[Jared Atchison]

I’m I really can’t say because I use SVN to sync up with the latest version. Maybe jjj will have some input.

Having trouble installing 3786.

Extracted everything. Renamed plugin to bbpress. Put bbpress in zip archive bbpress.zip

From WP Admin > Plugins > Add New > Upload

Selected bbpress.zip

Selected Yes from “update existing plugin” dropdown (I am using Easy theme and plugin updgrades https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/easy-theme-and-plugin-upgrades/ )

Clicked upload.

Getting this message:

Unpacking the package…



Installing the plugin…



Destination folder already exists. ...../wp-content/plugins/bbpress/



Plugin install failed.

Please help!

Done https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1767

1. Unfortunately right now, without writing a plugin, there is no way accomplish this. So if you make someone a moderator, they will be a moderator for the entire site.

2. I’m not 100% sure on the compatibility with bbPress, but I would try https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/simple-local-avatars/

[Jared Atchison]

Sorry, I’ve been closing threads that are “done” due to getting bumped by spammers. Hopefully when the site gets upgraded to 2.1 this won’t be an issue.

I deleted the snippet because it is now a full plugin available here

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-custom-css-file/

[Jared Atchison]

Awesome, thanks for reporting back. If you find any bugs please come back and report them

[Jared Atchison]

My recommendation https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/simple-local-avatars/

Not 100% sure it will work with bbPress, but it *should*.

[jamieskella]

Just thought I’d post back in the event anyone else is considering doing the same but it hesitant:

Installation was seamless, and I have had no problems what-so-ever running it.

[kannued]

Thanks jaredatch! Found the plugin.

[Jared Atchison]

Thanks, reported!

Hello!

Files for Russian localization available at: http://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/plugin/ru/default

Instructions for downloading the current version of the plugin localization bbPress:

1. Go to the resource: http://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/plugin/ru/default
2. Bottom left click Export, the first field should be “all current” in the second field “mo”. Repeat this action by selecting the second box, “po”.
3. Download both files in the “[root of your WordPress] wp-content plugins bbpress bbp-languages ​​”

Note: The exported files will include only the localization of the green line (current, that is approved by the current version). Yellow highlighted recent changes in the translation, pending approval. They transfer will not be included!

There you can offer your translation.

Important!

The resulting files should be renamed, for example: was the bbpress-plugin-ru.mo, was bbpress-ru_RU.mo.

Thank you all!

Инструкция для загрузки локализации текущей версии плагина bbPress:

Примечание: В экспортируемые файлы локализации будут включены только строки зеленого цвета(current, то есть утвержденная текущая версия). Желтым цветом выделены недавние изменения в переводе, ожидающие утверждения. Они в перевод включены не будут!

Там же Вы можете предложить свой вариант перевода.

Важно!

Полученные файлы нужно переименовывать, пример: было bbpress-plugin-ru.mo, стало bbpress-ru_RU.mo.

Всем спасибо!

bbPress has a widget that can show the latest activity (you can set how many).

I would suggest creating a new sidebar area, place that on your homepage, and then use the bbPress activity widget in it.

Hello,

I really appreciate someones help here.

I put wp_debug to true as suggested by the creator of the Graphene theme and it wasn’t showing the forums.

Lot’s of errors came up and I deactivated all the plugins I had, bbpress was the problem. Never, at any time, did I delete and reinstall bbpress.

I set the wp_debug to flase and the errors went away, but now all my forums, that still show up in the backend dashboard of wordpress, come up as “Page Not Found” on the front end.

When I create a new forum and view it BEFORE it’s published, I can see it, but once it’s published again, it comes up page now found.

Please can you help me with this?

THANKYOU

Ok, I have BBPress working fairly well with one exception. I’m using WordPress Access Control and WP-Members to limit user access. My website is a completely closed, member-only site for my employee group. However, the BB Press forums appear on the main menu to unregistered visitors, unlike everything else that remains invisible until I validate them. How do I get BB Press to remain hidden until my users get bumped p in status?

Is there a way to have BB Press totally accessed via a page, so that I can control the page the same way I control other pages?

[kannued]

On my home page which is straight html/css, I would like to pull the latest discussions, about 3 entries, from my bbpress page. How would I do this so it would automically update on my home page as new posts occur?
