When i want to reset permalinks, do i habe to change it and save or just save it?
I am questioning because i found this.

“I would try resetting your permalinks. In your WordPress Administration Screens navigate to Settings > Permalinks, select a different permalink structure and save. Then select your preferred permalink structure
and save again.”

Is this part of the htaccess file …
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ – [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

… synonymous with the activated Apache mod_rewrite module?
Or do I still have to activate the module although this is configured in my htacces file?

I have hope again that I find out what it is 🙂 I am looking forward to your answers.
All the best
Daniel

Hello,

I made an analysis on the existing user profile avatar / photo and I couldn’t find one that is free and works for my experimental forum. For sure there is a setting problem in my project, but I cannot find it. There are is not very useful conversation in the console (we will extend the discussion here if required).

Here is the list:

1. Avatar Manager there is the upload button, select the picture but nothing is uploaded

2. WP User Avatars there is the upload button, select the picture but nothing is uploaded

3. Basic User Avatars there is the upload button, select the picture but nothing is uploaded

Maybe for these 3 there is a settings that prevents uploading?

4. Simple Local Avatars http://…/wordpress/forums/users/…/edit/ doesn’t load anymore

It break somehow the bbpress.

5. Simple User Avatar the select (upload) button does not work

6. User Photo the plugin activate button does not work

7. WP Custom Avatar maybe its not compatible with bbPress, doesn’t appear at http://…/wordpress/forums/users/…/edit/

8. User Profile Picture maybe its not compatible with bbPress, doesn’t appear at http://…/wordpress/forums/users/…/edit/

9. WP User Avatar the option is not free for bbpress, maybe it works fine

10. User registration & user profile – Profile Builder il avem deja the option is not free for bbpress, maybe it works fine

What are your suggestions on this?

Please reply if you have some experience with one of the plugins.

Thank you !

Looked to be due to the Simple Local Avatars plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-local-avatars/

Commenting out some lines in the get_avatar function seemed to fix the issue.

you can create an index with particular forums using a shortcode in my style pack

[bsp-display-forum-index forum= ‘2932,2921’ title=’main forums’] Displays the selected forum indexes

bbp style pack

my style pack has a shortcode

[bsp-display-topic-indexforum =’101′ ] Displays the latest topics, optionally from a forum or forums

Hello!

May I ask if this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpressmoderation/ will work correctly despite not being updated with new WP version?
Or, maybe is there another plugin/way to do the same as this plugin do?
Thanks in advance.

bbPress is following along with WordPress GDPR implementation, once that is sorted out we’ll implement what needs implementing for bbPress.

WordPress’ GDPR progress can be followed along via https://make.wordpress.org/core/tag/gdpr-compliance/

I can create a page with a single forum using the shortcode [bbp-single-forum id=19743] but I also want it this particular forum not to be seen in the main forum index where I use the shortcode [bbp-forum-index]
Is this possible?
Is there another way of achieving the same effect?

I have:
Wordpress version 4.9.5
BBPress Version 1.4.1
main Forum page
specific forum page

if you google ‘WP Super Cache bbpress’ you’ll find lots of help – including how to disable bbpress for supercache

WordPress Dashboard
> Settings
> WP Super Cache
> Advanced tab
> Scroll down to “Accepted Filenames & Rejected URI’s”

> Add here strings (not a filename) …

I found the following entries in that text box:

wp-.*.php

index.php

I added:

/forums/

(My bbPress application is installed under my WordPress directory in the /forums sub-directory).

Now all URL’s that include the string “/forums/” are ignored in terms of caching.

which sound like what you may need

Hi so I’ve got a problem with a forum. It’s not my first one but the first time i’ve got that problem. When I post something/ create a Topic etc. it is not being shown. only after a long time (like a day or so) it will show the changes. i guess it is a problem with the cache but I can’t figure out what. clearing the cache doesn’t help and even if it would… i mean who clears his cache after each post of every user…

WordPress 4.9.5
bbPress Version 2.5.14
WP Super Cache Version 1.5.9

if you want to take a look at it yourself: turngemeinde.com/forum (its in german)

bbpress uses the wordpress default avatar as set in

dashboard>settings>discussion

There are plugins that let you add additional defaults eg

Add New Default Avatar

or use code in your functions file or a snippets plugin (https://en-gb.wordpress.org/plugins/code-snippets/) such as

add_filter( 'avatar_defaults', 'mytheme_default_avatar' );
function mytheme_default_avatar( $avatar_defaults ) 
{
    $avatar = get_option('avatar_default');

    $new_avatar_url = get_template_directory_uri() . '/images/default_avatar.png';

    if( $avatar != $new_avatar_url )
    {
        update_option( 'avatar_default', $new_avatar_url );
    }

    $avatar_defaults[ $new_avatar_url ] = 'Default Avatar';
    return $avatar_defaults;
}

@editor-mike,

If it does not seem to work, you can also find the option in my bbp-toolkit plugin in the ‘Extras’ tab.

Let me know if that worked after you activated the plugin and the option.

[Robin W]

bbpress just uses the display name as set in

dashboard>users>all Users>edit user

so you could change your users to what you want.

users can change their individual if you give them access to their wordpress profile or their bbpress profile.

There are some plugins and code that can change stuff eg

Quick Tip: Set the Default Display Name for WordPress Users

I googled ‘wordpress change display name for all users’ and lots lots of stuff.

Can’t do a treeview (whatever you mean by that), but my plugin

bbp style pack

has an unread posts tab

I’m having trouble replying to my own thread I just created on a forum. All the options available say “Edit”, “View” and “Trash”. But I want to reply & post in my own thread that I created. Can you please help me? I’m quite stressed out trying to get my forum to appear not only as a page but with the ability to reply. I cannot reply to my own thread and forum?

I reached out to wordpress.com, wordpres.orf (who redirected me to wordpress.com); and Wordspress.com told me to reach out to bbPress saying, “It is a design issue , You need to add it with the web developer. Please check with the plugin providers also for that. Its not the server settings . Its a forum settings you need to check with the forums developers.”

So that is what I am doing. If you need me to provide links, I will. I just am desperate for help so that I can get my post and website up and working.

Please advice and thank you.

I almost had it done converting it to simple machine and then to BBPress but it kept getting an error at the end. I was converting to 4.4 (I believe) it was using the latest converter someone posted on the VB Forums. I apologize for not saving the links. I finally gave up. Went back to VB 5.0 and am hosting it myself. vBulletin is by far the best software out there for forums, but not great when you want integration. My forum was pretty good sized..

HH Forums Statistics

Topics: 59,495 Posts: 385,220

I didn’t use the cloud like I did and went back to self hosting like I had before. If you host vBulletin yourself you have total control over it and you can install 3rd party plugins. I use DragonByte. It is inexpensive and great customer support. With the new vBulletin interface and mobile support for apps it is again top of the line.

I waited well over a year for a solution to the problem and WordPress and BBPress were obviously not willing to take a good portion of the crowd wanting to jump from vBulletin. But they waited too long and vBulletin worked their issues out.

It does not work as it used to before.
Here the faults:
1) Under Settings > Discussions when I try to select the Forum, and click on “Apply settings to existing posts” it shows an error.
2) When I go to the posts I find all the wordpresss comments removed, and no bbpress replacement
3) However It works only if I edit individual posts and select the forum under the individual posts.

That means if somebody has 1000 posts he will have to edit 1000 posts for enabling the import?? How time consuming that will be
And during the time the individual posts are being edited the existing comments will remain hidden

Earlier this fault was not there, the import could be enabled for the all the posts with one click…

Hi @thebeeobee,

That looks like a nice bug. Would you be able to add that to https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/newticket , describe in short the issue and the steps to reproduce? Also put a link to this topic.

Thanks a lot!
Pascal.

Ciao Fabio,
As you can see on https://translate.wordpress.org/locale/it/default/wp-plugins/bbpress , bbPress is translated in stable and dev at 100%, so I confirm that all strings have been translated in Italian.

What you show in your screenshots is however coming from a theme or an extra plugin and not from bbPress.

So identify the theme or plugin that adds this string and translate it. More information on how to translate can be found on https://it.wordpress.org/traduzioni/
