I am on the latest WordPress and I installed the new bbpress plugin.

I created a forum. I made it private so that non-forum participants cannot see it.

I created a test forum participant.

I logged into as the forum participant via another browser. The forum participant cannot see any of the forums at all. Unless I make it public.

(Sorry, I just realized this should be in the troubleshooting forum)

If I make it public, anyone can see the topics, which I do not want.

Is there a solution?

Could you tell me where can I find this version of bbPress? Why look at this link [https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress/download/] not found.

Thanks.

I installed WordPress, and then BuddyPress. As far as I know, BuddyPress comes with bbPress 2.0.2.

In BuddyPress’ components, the “Discussion Forums” component is NOT ticked, it’s off.

Instead, I have a bbPress 2.0.2 plugin on the wordpress’ list of plugins. I unfortunately don’t remember if I installed the plugin, or it got installed as I installed BuddyPress.

My question is, can I install bbpress plugins on this type of setup? I’m looking to get for example youtube embedding etc. going on them as well as the b or img or other shortcodes.

Any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Hey everyone, I’m having a bit of trouble with my query. I’m display forum posts on the home page of my wordpress site so they kind of look a bit like a blog post. What I’m having a hard time figuring out is, how can I exclude spam, hidden, and closed topics from veiw on that page.

Basically, I only want to show open topics on the home page, the part o the code in question is…

$bbp_loop_args = array(

'post_type' => bbp_get_topic_post_type(),

'orderby' => 'date',

'order' => 'DESC',

'post__not_in' => bbp_get_super_stickies(),

'posts_per_page' => 10,



);



if ( bbp_has_topics( $bbp_loop_args ) ) :



if ( bbp_topics() ) : bbp_the_topic();



global $more;

$more = 0;



get_template_part( 'content', get_post_format() );



echo '<ol class="other-recent-posts">';



endif;

endif;

I’m able to exclude super-stickies easily enough, but excluding hidden, spam, and closed topics is eluding me.

Anyone out there have any Ideas?

Thank you for the reply. I did try resaving the permalinks via wordpress main settings and then under the bbpress settings (changing prefix from forum to allforums and then back again) but it didn’t work. Hmmmmmmmm This one has me stumped.

Before I answer, I have a bbPress forum site that create for some times and I don’t really make it public. So there is no other post than mine and team (and spam that i deleted already). I still manage others projects with other team.

1 – Are there any anti-spam measures on sign-up? (I just had to enter an email address to register here)

Yes, I use WangGuard and reCaptcha for bbPress 2.0

2 – Do you have to have wordpress already installed? (I was thinking of testing bbPress by itself first)

Yes, because bbPress is a plugin

3 – When you have wordpress installed, can it load in ‘latest posts from the forum’ in wordpress pages? Such as on category listing pages or actual blog posts.

Yes, sample:

Newest topics at http://themescommunity.com/newest-topics/

Newest post … no idea yet since I don’t need it for now.

4 – Is bbPress server efficient? vB has always been good on that front.

vB still the best choice if you want the best forum IMHO

5 – Is it easy to customise? The style I will want to port over is at http://www.gameslurp.com

Yes, but not the same. The feel maybe can be achieve by styles but not the features.

6 – Does bbPress track unread/new posts? So any new posts can be shown in bold on the forum listing page if they contain new posts since the last visit/page refresh?

Some modification needed, but no idea yet since I don’t even think about yet.

Hope satisfy your need, not much but that my little knowledge about bbPress that I can share. I believe others will answer more and detailed.

First latest bbPress don’t have custom theme, instead it (merge) using your WordPress theme. And off course you can edit how the way bbPress look by customize the styles of bbPress css but it will use your wp theme not your custom bbPress theme.

I believe bbPress theme that you download are for bbPress 1.x

[Themes Community]

I have visit your links and you did have the problem.

Can you resave permalinks for both bbPress forums and WordPress, and try again.

Hi, I’m thinking about converting a vBulletin forum over to bbPress and have a few questions I hope someone can help with.

1 – Are there any anti-spam measures on sign-up? (I just had to enter an email address to register here)

2 – Do you have to have wordpress already installed? (I was thinking of testing bbPress by itself first)

3 – When you have wordpress installed, can it load in ‘latest posts from the forum’ in wordpress pages? Such as on category listing pages or actual blog posts.

4 – Is bbPress server efficient? vB has always been good on that front.

5 – Is it easy to customise? The style I will want to port over is at http://www.gameslurp.com

6 – Does bbPress track unread/new posts? So any new posts can be shown in bold on the forum listing page if they contain new posts since the last visit/page refresh?

Think that’s it for now – any input from people who have converted a vB forum would be great appreciated too.

I am also very much concerned about this. I run a WordPress site with almost 1000 users that is integrated with standalone bbPress 1.0.2 forum and everything is working just fine, so if anything went wrong with the migration to bbPress 2.x it would be a disaster. Is there a guaranteed safe way to do this? Or, if something goes wrong, how to undo the changes?

[boriskourt]

Hello, I would like some feedback on a small issue I have been having where when the user submits their registration they are not notified that their form has been submitted successfully, rather the same page just reloads.

The data is submitted fine so the user gets an email. But I am not sure where to start with actually telling them that everything went right, or redirecting to a different page saying that their registration has been received and they should check their email.

I am using the latest version of wordpress and bbpress Plugin. The rest of the theme works fine, I am not using 2011, and have followed the instructions for turning my custom theme into a bbpress compatible theme. Just having this one issue now.

Thanks

I’m a php developer who wants to use WordPress and bbPress to create a forum. Where can I get a complete documentation of bbPress ? Is there a book of bbPress ?

What I want is to personalize bbPress. For example, I want to show all posts, with a function to filter by user, area, etc… Is this possible ?

thank you.

[karinecc]

I have already installed the bbPress on my wordpress. But I saw that the theme of my blog was not the appropriate forum and was very disorganized with the same (www.nosnagravata.com/forum/) and would like to know how to install a bbPress theme that I downloaded to my computer and put wordpress in it without messing with my blog theme (www.nosnagravata.com).

I merely wish to change the theme of the forum and not the entire blog (www.nosnagravata.com), as it has? Please if you could explain to me?

[Hedgehog84]

Bump!

If my question is not clear, please let me know.

I’m running the latest version of both WordPress and bbPress (3.3.1 & 2.0.2).

First you should disable all plugins manually using cpanel, just rename your ‘plugins’ folder into ‘plugins2’ then you should be able to enter the wp admin.

After browse to plugins page, you will see lots of errors because of no plugins located. Then rename your ‘plugins2’ from cpanel into ‘plugins’ again and try activate a plugin one by one to figure what the culprit.

[Themes Community]

First, forget any previous custom yet nice looking bbpress themes since it not usable anymore. It for bbPress 1.x

As Anoited said now bbPress (2.x) is using your own active WordPress theme and can merge with built-ed styles and layout of bbPress. You can find it at /plugins/bbpress/bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten

You can try temporary switch your active theme to Twenty Ten to figure out what the forum will be. Then you can use your wp theme as your bbPress theme with some modifications.

Can you describe more…

[Toothbrush]

I am using bbPress as a WordPress plugin, and I found it doesn’t fit well on my Android phone or iPod screens. Well, forum menu is crashed and topic-creating forms looks weird and so on.

It would maybe a templates problem, I guess.

How do I fix this issue? Is there any WordPress plugins or themes that solve this?

[karinecc]

Hello!

I downloaded the theme of bbPress for my PC. However, I do not know how I should proceed. Please could you tell me what I do to install the wordpress and can integrate it?

Thanks

@anointed

Hadn’t thought about any of that actually. I suppose a person could choose what existing forum to put the posts in, make replies anonymous temporarily on bbpress when doing the conversion, so that you could post comments as replies without having to register anyone.

Mostly I think the most important thing to transfer over would be to have the topic itself.

Not sure how much a demand for this there would be though, I know I’m not the only one who is looking for a way to do this though. I’m hoping to use bbpress in such a way that it replaces the blogging function entirely, so hopefully i can figure this out.

I think there might be a way to do it actually. I thought I saw something once upon a time that converted wordpress posts into bbpress topics for the standalone version. I guess once you convert to the standalone you could then convert it yet again to the plugin version.

I’ll give it a shot and see what happens.

[aravoth2011]

what theme are you using?
