I would like to support this plugin, but I didnt find the way to make a donation for Bbpress. I have already donated for WordPress Foundation, but I prefer to do it for this plugin in particular plugin.

Thanks,

Hi,
None of the H1 tags seem to be from bbPress. There is the global WordPress one and then another one at the bottom, probably from a plugin like ‘Backdrop’ or other.

bbPress is using WordPress standards, so if you have further questions on the use of h1, h2 etc, the best forum would be on https://wordpress.org/support/forums/

Pascal.

untested, but add this to your functions file or snippets

add_filter ('bbp_before_insert_forum_parse_args' , 'rew_order' ) ;

function rew_order ($args) {
$args['menu_order'] = 10 ;
return $args ;
}

ok, bit of code that does redirect but this is via wordpress login- this will be added to my style pack plugin shortly, with some further features, such as bbpress login

//add private forum check
add_action( 'bbp_template_redirect', 'rew_access_if_logged_out', 3 );

function rew_access_if_logged_out(){
	$topic_slug = get_option( '_bbp_topic_slug') ;
	//quick check if we need to do this function
	if (strpos($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'], $topic_slug) == FALSE) return ;
	$login_check=0 ;
	$forum_slug = bbp_get_root_slug() ;
	//if check is set (ie we prefix forums with the forum slug) then part 1 will be forum slug and part 2 will be topic slug, if not part 1 will be topic slug
	$check = bbp_include_root_slug() ;
	$link = explode('/',$_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);
	//next we need to topic id (post id) of the topic so we need to check if it is a topic and if so, find the topic id
	if (!is_user_logged_in() && $check && $link[1] == $forum_slug && $link[2] == $topic_slug ) {
		$post = rew_get_page_by_slug( $link[3], OBJECT, 'topic' );
		$topic_id =  $post->ID;
		$login_check=1 ;
		} 
	elseif (!is_user_logged_in() && empty($check) && $link[1] === $topic_slug) {
		$post = rew_get_page_by_slug( $link[2], OBJECT, 'topic' );
		$topic_id =  $post->ID;		
		$login_check=1 ;
	}
	//now we need to check if the topic belongs to a private forum, so can't be seen
	if (!empty ($login_check)) {
		$forum_id = bbp_get_topic_forum_id($topic_id);
		//if forum is private...
			if (bbp_get_forum_visibility( $forum_id ) == 'private' ) {
				$redirect = home_url() . '/wp-login.php?redirect_to=' .  urlencode( $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] ); ;
				wp_redirect( $redirect );
				exit;
			}
	}
}

function rew_get_page_by_slug($page_slug, $output = OBJECT, $post_type = 'page', $status = 'publish' ) { 
  global $wpdb; 
   $page = $wpdb->get_var( $wpdb->prepare( "SELECT ID FROM $wpdb->posts WHERE post_name = %s AND post_type= %s", $page_slug, $post_type) ); 
     if ( $page ) 
        return get_post($page, $output); 
    return null; 
}

bbpress sends the notification as a single email, with the noreply address as the to/from an the recipients are then bcc’d in.

So you can’t simply remove it.

you can amend how bbpress sends using this plugin

Hi,

ok, I have copied the phpBB database into a fresh one. It was UTF8_unicode before, the copy is now utf8mb4_unicode. I have linked the import routine to this new database. I still get this message:

WordPress-Datenbank-Fehler: [Unknown column ‘users.user_website’ in ‘field list’]
SELECT convert(users.user_id USING “utf8mb4”) AS user_id,convert(users.user_password USING “utf8mb4”) AS user_password,convert(users.user_form_salt USING “utf8mb4”) AS user_form_salt,convert(users.username USING “utf8mb4”) AS username,convert(users.user_email USING “utf8mb4”) AS user_email,convert(users.user_website USING “utf8mb4”) AS user_website,convert(users.user_regdate USING “utf8mb4”) AS user_regdate,convert(users.user_aim USING “utf8mb4”) AS user_aim,convert(users.user_yim USING “utf8mb4”) AS user_yim,convert(users.user_icq USING “utf8mb4”) AS user_icq,convert(users.user_msnm USING “utf8mb4”) AS user_msnm,convert(users.user_jabber USING “utf8mb4”) AS user_jabber,convert(users.user_occ USING “utf8mb4”) AS user_occ,convert(users.user_interests USING “utf8mb4”) AS user_interests,convert(users.user_sig USING “utf8mb4”) AS user_sig,convert(users.user_from USING “utf8mb4”) AS user_from,convert(users.user_avatar USING “utf8mb4”) AS user_avatar FROM phpbb_users AS users LIMIT 0, 100

Any thoughts where I could start searching for errors?

Thanks a lot!

Hi,

Thank you for your reaction! <3

For the forum site club.geef-model.nl I have set the mailaddress in settings>general in info@geef-model.nl. I have created, using incognito screen, a new user and confirmed it but I still don’t receive a notification mail of it.

I also installed the plugin check email and tested it. I received the following mail:
This test email proves that your WordPress installation at http://club.geef-model.nl can send emails.\n\nSent: Wed, 16 Jan 2019 15:32:08 +0000

What could I do now to solve my problem?

With kind regards,

The short and simple answer … is no 🙂

bbPress is a plugin for WordPress and it requires many of the features and facilities that WordPress provides in order to function.

What CMS are you using?

[qianjiu]

This is my website: https://www.9skymachining.com We are a mechanical processing company. I started with WordPRESS, but I changed it now. I am using CMS now, but I want to add a BBpress forum. I don’t know if there is any way?

[Robin W]

bbpress just uses wordpress registration, so the issue is with that.

Firstly check that you have membership ticked in dashboard>settings>general so that anyone can register.

If you are not receiving emails, then what is set in
dashboard>settings>general>email address
and does it match your site?
1. You should be aware that many spam filters strip messages that do not come from the correct address. So if your site is mysite.com and your email address in wordpress settings>general is fred@gmail.comthen it is likely that messages will be dumped in transit. You need to set up email to come from your site eg fred@mysite.com, your hosting provider can help if needed.
2. Just bbpress?
Then you need to see if this is wordpress wide or just bbpress.
Try https://wordpress.org/plugins/check-email/

Hi everyone,

I use WordPress 5.03 with BBpress version 2.5.14.
My website is http://club.geef-model.nl

The issue that I experience with my forum is that I don’t receive a notification when I new user is registered.

Most likely it is just one box I have to enable 😉
but I cannot find it.

I hope there is somebody who has the solution for me.

Thank you in advance for your help and response.

With kind regards,
Klaziena Waerts, the Netherlands

My site is in Dutch and when I must translate it, or change it (for a short while) to English is that no problem at all 🙂

bbpress just uses wordpress registration, so this should work for you

WP After Registration Redirect User Advanced

come back and confirm

[Robin W]

not a simple lift of code, so I’ve created the widget in my style pack plugin.

bbp style pack

Once activated, you’ll find the new widgets in the widgets section and can configure what they show there.

Note : these widgets only appear on the relevant pages, so you won’t see the single topic information widget unless you are in a single topic!

Hi,

i installed bbpress today on my wordpress site which have WordPress 5.0.3, bbpress 2.5.14. If i click on the Forum page in the admin panel it keeps loading forever. i tried reinstalling but still the same.If i try to create a new forum it keep loading for about 3 mins and then show this error:

” Create New Forum
“class=”help-tab-content”> Publish – You can set the terms of publishing your forum in the Publish box. For Status, Visibility, and Publish (immediately), click on the Edit link to reveal more options. Visibility includes options for password-protecting a forum or making it stay at the top of your blog indefinitely (sticky). Publish (immediately) allows you to set a future or past date and time, so you can schedule a forum to be published in the future or backdate a forum.

Any idea what is causing this error?

[mattbru]

WordPress v5.0.3
bbPress v2.5.14

Im using the function bbp_user_favorites_link() on my homepage post content to show a favorite link icon in the upper righthand corner of the post image.

When you click it, it goes to the single topic page. The “like” gets liked or unliked but I want to remain on the homepage. i dont want to go to the single topic page when clicking that icon from the homepage.

https://forum.thecritterdepot.com/

Note: You cannot “like” when youre not logged in. But I made a dummy icon that tells you you need to log in when clicked.

I tried looking through all the bbpress “favorites” functions but couldnt figure out how to remove this behavior.

Thanks!

@Gregg: thanks a lot for your problem and solution description. I think I have the same issue (phpBB 3.1, current WordPress/bbpress)

WordPress-Datenbank-Fehler: [Unknown column 'users.user_website' in 'field list']
SELECT convert(users.user_id USING "utf8mb4") AS user_id,convert(users.user_password USING "utf8mb4") AS user_password,convert(users.user_form_salt USING "utf8mb4") AS user_form_salt,convert(users.username USING "utf8mb4") AS username,convert(users.user_email USING "utf8mb4") AS user_email,convert(users.user_website USING "utf8mb4") AS user_website,convert(users.user_regdate USING "utf8mb4") AS user_regdate,convert(users.user_aim USING "utf8mb4") AS user_aim,convert(users.user_yim USING "utf8mb4") AS user_yim,convert(users.user_icq USING "utf8mb4") AS user_icq,convert(users.user_msnm USING "utf8mb4") AS user_msnm,convert(users.user_jabber USING "utf8mb4") AS user_jabber,convert(users.user_occ USING "utf8mb4") AS user_occ,convert(users.user_interests USING "utf8mb4") AS user_interests,convert(users.user_sig USING "utf8mb4") AS user_sig,convert(users.user_from USING "utf8mb4") AS user_from,convert(users.user_avatar USING "utf8mb4") AS user_avatar FROM phpbb_users AS users LIMIT 0, 100

If you say you exported the phpBB Database, do you mean simply with phpmyamdin? But then what do I have to do, simply create a new one in phpMyAdmin and import this database? this I would understand, but how do I tell bbpress to use this database?

Thanks for your help!!

Hi all, I know this is an old topic. Those days When I faced this problem and I reached here.
But I can’t find a satisfying answer from the forum. So I wrote a plugin to solve this problem. Hope it will help someone else has the same problem.

The post editor of bbpress is not fully displayed on mobile devices. WordPress version is 5.0 and bbpress version is 2.5.14.

I’ve tried different mobile devices and the problem remains. This is a recent problem, which has been normal before.

[InventiveWebDesign]

I am trying to allow users to embed videos by using links such as Youtube. When I do so the videos appears but is cut off because the box is to small to fit the iframe that is added to the site when wordpress adds the embed code. You can see an example here: http://b67.3d8.myftpupload.com/no-shift/topic/messed-up-divorce/

I did some searching and found some CSS that doesn’t work either. Basically it adjusts the width but breaks on the height.

.bbp-reply-content {
    overflow:hidden;
    padding-bottom:56.25% !important;
    position:relative;
    height:0;
}
.bbp-reply-content iframe{
    left:0;
    top:0;
    height:100%;
    width:100%;
    position:absolute;
}

Is there a way to make the WordPress auto embed code responsive in BBPress?
