I think it had something to do with my Woo commerce permalinks- once I changed product permalinks back to default, it seems to be working. However, the forums page is still full-width and I think it has something to do with Woo commerce too.

[Robin W]

I think the FRESHNESS field should display the date of the last reply or topic, but instead it only shows the date of the last topic.

This is what it should do (and does on my test site)

It could be a theme or plugin issue

Plugins

Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Themes

If plugins don’t pinpoint the problem, as a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

I had to create several new users but I could not just copied and paste the code again so I modified the code a bit

//code to add expert role 

function add_expert_role( $bbp_roles )
{
	/* Add a role called expert */
	$bbp_roles['bbp_expert'] = array(
		'name' => 'expert',
		'capabilities' => custom_capabilities_expert( 'bbp_expert' )
		);
	return $bbp_roles;
}
 
add_filter( 'bbp_get_dynamic_roles', 'add_expert_role', 1 );

function expert_role_caps_filter( $caps, $role )
{
	/* Only filter for roles we are interested in! */
	if( $role == 'bbp_expert' )
		$caps = custom_capabilities_expert( $role );
 
	return $caps;
}
 
add_filter( 'bbp_get_caps_for_role', 'expert_role_caps_filter', 10, 2 );

function custom_capabilities_expert( $role )
{
	switch ( $role )
	{
		 
		/* Capabilities for 'expert' role */
		case 'bbp_expert':
			return array(
				// Primary caps
				'spectate'              => true,
				'participate'           => true,
				'moderate'              => false,
				'throttle'              => false,
				'view_trash'            => false,
 
				// Forum caps
				'publish_forums'        => false,
				'edit_forums'           => false,
				'edit_others_forums'    => false,
				'delete_forums'         => false,
				'delete_others_forums'  => false,
				'read_private_forums'   => true,
				'read_hidden_forums'    => false,
 
				// Topic caps
				'publish_topics'        => true,
				'edit_topics'           => true,
				'edit_others_topics'    => false,
				'delete_topics'         => false,
				'delete_others_topics'  => false,
				'read_private_topics'   => true,
 
				// Reply caps
				'publish_replies'       => true,
				'edit_replies'          => true,
				'edit_others_replies'   => false,
				'delete_replies'        => false,
				'delete_others_replies' => false,
				'read_private_replies'  => true,
 
				// Topic tag caps
				'manage_topic_tags'     => false,
				'edit_topic_tags'       => false,
				'delete_topic_tags'     => false,
				'assign_topic_tags'     => true,
			);
			break;
 
		default :
			return $role;
	}
}

This creates the role Expert. I put this in my functions.php of my child-theme

[Robin W]

ok, thanks for the clarification.

You say that everything is working on the backend – this would suggest that the import is fine, and maybe that something else is affecting.

It could be a theme or plugin issue

Deactivate all but bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Then come back !

[Robin W]

bbpress works with 4.1 so it not/not only a 4.1 issue

It could be a theme or plugin issue with 4.1

[Robkk]

if you haven’t already copy all of your bbPress templates to a folder called bbpress in your child theme

follow this codex guide.

https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/

and also check if its a theme issue , switch to a default theme like twentytwelve and see if the issue is still there or not.

[v_dee]

On default theme, all displayed, but if I return to forums page, i se

Fatal error: ob_end_flush() [ref.outcontrol]: Cannot use output buffering in output buffering display handlers in /home/user1178811/www/procentovka.by/wp-includes/functions.php on line 3269

[atomicadam]

Any luck on this? This is something our forum users are requesting as well, and kind of seems like a no brainer default feature of a forum plugin.

Currently, when user is a “participant” and try to upload an image via the media uploader, this is the error they get “You don’t have permission to attach files to this post.”

Viewing the “participant” permissions via Roles plugin, upload image is checked off, while unfiltered is not. But I can’t alter these settings.

What gives?

WPML Support they neglect the issues.
I think, having WordPress installed “by default” the WPML plugin, bbPress should take this into account and find a solution. Do not you believe it appropriate?

Hey guys! I need your help,

actually, im bulding a web site with bbforum in my partage-dexpertise section
(http://localhost/bibliotheque/pour-les-bibliotheques-gouvernementales/partage-dexpertise/)

My breadCrumb work fine for all my website so I desactivate BBPress default breadCrumb.

Now when I go to my forum I got this link(http://localhost/bibliotheque/sujet/test/)
so my breadCrumb is(Services de bibliotheque>Sujets>test).

But I want something like this (http://localhost/bibliotheque/pour-les-bibliotheques-gouvernementales/partage-dexpertise/sujet/test/).

breadCrumb(Services de bibliotheque>Pour les bibliothèques gouvernementales>Partage d’expertise>Sujets>test)

My question is: Can I change my topic(sujet for me) parent page or something like that.

Thanks a lot fred

are you talking about breadcrumbs??

if so see if your theme author can help bring those back because bbPress displays this by default in a unmodified theme.

[olesolo]

I’m calling a login form by [bbp-login]
As I understand it’s using a wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/form-user-login.php
I want to rename “Username” label and remove “:”
But my changes don’t appear on site. It seems that [bbp-login] uses a different template?

[sha77ered]

Hi there,

Ive been searching all over for a solution to this problem and have tried extensively myself to solve it, but to no avail. Please if someone could offer some guidance i would really appreciate it.

So on the forum root if one display the topics directly, I would need the option allow the user to sort the topics alphabetically or by date. Perhaps this should be considered a default feature in bbpress?

Anyways, I realise that the ‘bbp_has_topics’ function in includes>topics>template.php needs to be hooked into and changed, but how to do that I dont know.

Any support would be greatly appreciated.

[Nicolas Korobochkin]

One more thing. I found some “bug” in my solution. If you use wp_signup_location in MU Plugins directory you need to pass three arguments to add_filter, because mu-plugins loaded before plugins or themes.

1. MU Plugins
2. Plugins
3. Themes

In MU Plugins:

add_filter ('wp_signup_location', 'selena_signup_page', 99);
// You can set up any number greater than 10 (default value).
// Otherwise your WordPress will be redirect users to wrong page.

In Theme or Plugin:

add_filter ('wp_signup_location', 'selena_signup_page');
// or
// add_filter ('wp_signup_location', 'selena_signup_page', 99);

ok, I’ve had a detailed look, and there is no simple filter, so we just copy the function, rename it, and the hook back

I suggest you start with the theme author and see if he can suggest how to fix.

yeah if you have the default settings in the permalinks section it would show a weird url like

example.com/?post_type=forum

try changing it to post-name

Hi !
hepdoll said (some times ago) that she couldn’t find page-front-forums.php file.
I like bbPress, also Markdown Editor I’m using (WP plugin named : “WP-Markdown”, produced by Stephen Harris, as I saw there…). BUT I have problems with both bbPress and Markdown.

It’s too chaotic there, hard to customize…
(.. Now I’m writing here … Brrr, how ugly it is, and how slow the writing is)

WELL, I give the path @hepdoll .. and others, and there one can modify.
Suppose the WP blog is installed in folder BLOG and the “theme folder” (as it is written above in a comment) is named TH. Well, TH is useless here. So, the path :
../BLOG/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/extras/ and here are those files…

(Concerning Markdown, it’s SOOOOO difficult to modify. I’m “jealous” on those from SO = StackOverflow, who managed so well with their Markdown … and their Instant Preview show also Math formulas written in Latex (using MathJax), also instantly…)
