Hi guys, im using the latest WP 3.6 + bbPress 2.3.2 + buddypress 1.8

All works fine until you try to either Edit a forum of an existing group (front end) or when creating a new group and then at step 3 adding a forum to this group, when then the page get broken.

The page will remain visible but the header and footer will disappear.

see image below:

I have disabled ALL plugins as well as switched theme to the WordPress / buddypress default one but still the issue remains.

Page end Source code finished without closing this are the last lines:

<form action="http://[domainname]/group1/admin/extras" name="group-settings-form" id="group-settings-form" class="standard-form" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" role="main">

Inspect Elements reports error:
Uncaught TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method ‘sortable’

This was also report on the Buddypress forum:
http://buddypress.org/support/topic/admin-bar-and-footer-broken/

Please help.

Hi guys, I’m having trouble showing the shortcode for recent posts on my home page after I entered in code to get my recent blog posts to show up on my home page.

Here is the code I used for recent posts:

$args = array( 'numberposts' => 3 );
$lastposts = get_posts( $args );
foreach($lastposts as $post) : setup_postdata($post); ?>
	<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
	<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php endforeach; ?>

I saw in another topic how to get 10 recent topics on your home page with shortcode, but it didn’t work after the above code. Could someone please help me with the code to get 10 recent topics to appear on my home page?

Using the current versions of wordpress, bbpress and buddypress. Working with a buddypress default child theme. I’m also newer to php, so go easy please 🙂

@johnjamesjacoby awesome.

thanks BBPress for such a well designed and useful plugin !!

[leanderbraunschweig]

I know this not necessarily is a bbPress-bug but it is closely tied to bbPress so I’ll post it here first, hoping that you have got an idea on how to debug / fix it.

>> WHAT IS HAPPENING?

My users get locked out of single topics after they access the link to their subscribed topic (“Notify me of follow-up replies via email”). I use a plugin called “bbPress Custom Reply Notifications” in order to easily modify the email’s output and thought of this one to cause the issue but I had to rule it out…

But from the start:

>> SYSTEM SPECS / INFO

Base_
// WP 3.5.2
// bbPress 2.3.2

The site in question is a membership-site which uses a membership-plugin in order to make our content accessable only after payment. We incorporated bbPress there and things are going OK (although the usage it is not offically supported by the membership-plugin’s authors – but that doesn’t say much). I use a plugin named “Theme My Login” in order to style the account-pages. We us OptimizePress as template.

Membership_
// WishList Member 2.7.1
// Theme My Login 6.2.3
// Optimize Press 1.5a (German version)

Although I am listing “Theme My Login” f.ex., I think this most likely has to do with the membership-plugin & bbPress.

>> THE BUG

The issue only happens with singular users & singular topics (= the other topics and forums are functioning as intended). We have had numerous complaints so this ain’t due to a certain system-environment. How it happens:

– User A creates topic X, sets subscription via mail to “on”
– User B replies
– User A gets an email saying “User B replied to your post, go see it here: “http://mysite.info/thema/neuer-post-ohne/#post-5812”
– User A (state: not logged-in (!) // works when already logged-in…) clicks on link
– link “http://mysite.info/thema/neuer-post-ohne/#post-5812” shows “you are not allowed to view this” (because User isn’t logged in yet)
– User A clicks on “login”, enters credentials, gets redirected to our default start-page (weak Usability, I know…)
– User A then navigates to the forum where he/she got the reply

— ERROR —
“you are not allowed to view this” (but user is logged in!)

>> WHAT I HAVE DONE SO FAR

– emptied the cache(s) (W3 Total Cache in use)
– deleted all the site’s cookies (problem persists!)
– (double-)checked the permission-settings fot the topic with the membership-plugin

>> HOW YOU CAN HELP

Maybe you have got an idea on how to fix / debug this – any help is greatly appreciated. I can provide to test-accounts within our development-system so you can check it out for yourself.

Again – thanks a lot & I am hoping for some insights on how to tackle this.
Regards!

I installed bbpress on a default wordpress theme, and it works fine, I have a feeling that this an issue with my theme. But I don’t know where to even start to solve the problem.

[Jason]

Hey JJJ,

Thanks for the response. So, going to Tools > Forums, definitely did the trick by applying my default forum role “Participant” through to all current users.

However, it seems the issue is that when new users are created (outside of bbPress’s registration), they do not have a forum role assigned automatically. This I guess was just never an issue previously, as bbPress would use the default forum role when one did not exist. Is this no longer the case?

Is this the expected behavior? Or should I be figuring out how to modify my signup process to ensure this Forum Role gets assigned to the new user?

[ozgurpolat]

In form-reply.php after the line:

<div class="bbp-template-notice"><p><?php _e( 'Your account has the ability to post unrestricted HTML content.', 'bbpress' ); ?></p></div>

I inserted <?php else : ?><div class="bbp-template-notice"><p><?php _e( 'PLEASE NOTE: Your post will be sent to AWAITING MODERATION folder, will be posted if approved!', 'bbpress' ); ?></p></div>

Which is not so good because I am changing the core file. Is there a better way to do this?

[ozgurpolat]

Hi,

I have just installed bbpress moderation plug-in, but my question is not about the moderation plug-in, it is about putting a default text into the reply field, so that the users can read before posting. This is because currently bbpress moderation plug-in does not notify the user that the reply/post is held for moderation. So the user posts something in the forum, but nothing happens, there is no message saying that user’s message is awaiting moderation. The plug in author was asked about this 8 months ago, and he replied that it would be difficult to do something about this, and apparently the color of the reply is yellow, hinting that the reply is held for moderation. But there is no way of knowing this. So I decided to put the default text into the reply field so that the user can read before posting. I don’t know how to do this, I am quite new to bbpress.

[adambware]

I see the Group Extension in BBPress checks to see if the BBP_Forums_Group_Extension class is already defined, but I cannot figure out which action I need to hook into so that my custom BBP_Forums_Group_Extension is used instead of the default BBPress Group Extension.

Please help!

Hello,

I recently just updated to BuddyPress 1.8 with the Default Theme and now my widgets are not showing unless members are logged in. Any suggestions? Thanks.

[littlesparrowblog]

How can I establish automatic (default) email notification for all our registered users, which they can opt out of? We just created a new website for our group and the users are not getting any emails unless they subscribe to the individual topics.

Also, as administrator, how do I send out a group email?

[Hugo Ashmore]

Had this issue for a while too. Checked once again with no plugins running, BP bleeding and bp-default theme, issue persists.

[janhoos]

Hey guys!

Just installed bbPress since a week. Loving it so far 🙂 I was wondering, if there was a way where I can let people subscripe to topics, but not have it on by default? Some of the users have complained that they dont want to recieve all that e-email for topics that arent that important.

[ethanandrew]

That is the default configuration of bbpress, you cannot omit the /topic/ as it will always coming back and besides that points to a discussion or specific topic of the page. According to my friend from seo gold coast Australia, it is part of the systematic method for bbpress to have that one.

[shaimart]

Hi, how can I remove the sidebar from my forum page? I’m trying to get a full width page for the forums. I’m using the 2012 default WordPress theme, http://goo.gl/kC0X2

Kindly advise.

Thanks!

[Tecca]

It’s possible that your theme has a bbpress.css file which is overriding whatever you’re putting in the default file. Regardless, you should be editing the file that’s in your theme’s directory, which would look similar to:

webroot / wp-content / themes / yourtheme / css / bbpress.css

If the file isn’t in there or you don’t have that folder in your theme, copy and paste the file over.

Also make sure you’re hard refreshing your browser to clear its cache, after making your changes (hold CTRL then press f5 on your keyboard, or press the browser’s refresh button a couple of times).

[yguvvala]

Hi Tecca,

That didnt work. changing this codes doesnt reflect any changes on my forums page. in my Godaddy account i am changing this under

webroot / wp-content / plugins / bbpress / templates / default / css / bbpress.css

if you think am editing wrong file please let me know.

[dvclmn]

Thanks for the reply, JJJ!

Really appreciate your time. I successfully uploaded my entire vB database into phpmyadmin on my server (dvclmn.com).

However I input all my details and unfortunately it still gave me ‘no forums to convert…’ etc.

To be honest I’m sure it’s just a matter of having input a small detail wrong; there’s just so many areas to make an error in!

Perhaps I could get clarification on each field, just to eliminate these areas.

Select Platform
Easy, that’s vBulletin.

Database Server
I am now trying to import from a database on the same server as the bbpress installation. Does this mean I use a) localhost b) my dedicated IP address or c) dvclmn.com OR http://www.dvclmn.com OR http://dvclmn.com?

Database Port
My server uses Apache, so it’s likely this is 3306; is there a way to find out for sure?

Database Name
Is it important to include the server username extension here? So username_database_name? Or is just database_name fine? (in this case it is [username]_anotherc_vb).

Database User
I have seen the option between username@localhost OR username@dvclmn.com OR just username. Which is going to work?

Database Password
Got that nailed haha

Table Prefix
I have just been enter vb_, as all the tables in the database look like this: “vb_access” and “vb_action” etc.

Have been keeping the Rows & Delay Time at their defaults, and selecting Convert Users (and sometimes Start Over & Purge for good measure).

I hope this is enough information for you. It is imperative I can get this working ASAP, as I mentioned before I am happy to pay for premium support if need be. Just need this to work.

Thanks,

Dave.

[dvclmn]

Hey guys, thanks for taking the time to look after this.

I know there are a lot of posts dedicated to vBulletin import issues, but after hours of searching I haven’t been able to find a resolution. Hoping you can help!

I have read the known issues page (http://codex.bbpress.org/import-forums/vbulletin/) thoroughly and have made sure every detail is correct:

Selected Platform: vBulletin
Database Server: IP or hostname (in my case another-castle.com)
Database Port Use default 3306 if unsure
Database Name Name of the database with your old forum data
Database User User for your database connection
Database Password Password to access the database
Table Prefix (in my case vb_)

I just get ‘no forums/users/etc to convert’.

No data is imported.

I know that you can’t know if I’m getting a password or username wrong, but I am using the details I use to successfully log in to my server/phpMyadmin etc.

I am in such urgent need of this to work that I am happy to pay for further support – whatever it takes. Please let me know if there’s any more information I can give to help this along.

Thanks so much.

Dave.

I am working on getting a drupal forum migrated to bbpress. I am using the bbpress importer tool. The forum I am migrating has about 4000 topics and 40000 replies. The migration works fine for a few topics, but seems to get stuck at random places after about a 1000 records are migrated. This makes me think that it is not a data problem. More likely some sort of timeout.

Have any of you experienced something similar? I am running things locally with the most recent stable versions of WP and bbpress.

Here is my script. It is not well-tested. Any suggestions for improvements are welcome and feel free to use it as part of bbpress in whatever way you feel like.

Thanks for that Lynq.

THis is the solution:

“Tools” -> “Forums” -> “Remap existing users to default forum roles”

You have an “export” link at the bottom of the page:

guys

I’m new to bbpress, my problem may be simple to other, but its twisting my mind.

anyways

once bbpress is installed, you have the links for forum at domain.com/forums, which shows all the categories. i would like the sidebar to be a different one from the default one. how do i go about doing this.

i cannot get the sidebar to change at all.

thanks

Ian

1. create bbpress directory in your theme directory
2. copy there loop-single-forum.php from /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress
3. add wherever you wish the image to appear:
<?php echo get_the_post_thumbnail($post_id, 'full'); ?>

I have the same problem with version 2.3.2. After updating the menu items for topics, forums etc. are missing. All new posts get blocked by the spam settings and I do not know how to activate them without the menu item.
I played around with Settings > Forums as jonboldendesign wrote. The items appeared. Then I put the settings back to default. Now the menu items are gone again and I do not have the permission to access the Settings > Forums page (as WP admin!) Great stuff… 🙁
