I am very pleased to announce the release of my new plugin called Weaver for bbPress available for download from WordPress.org at Weaver for bbPress

This plugin makes bbPress essentially a turnkey install. Not only does it provide a collection of great looking bbPress themes that blend with about any WP theme, it includes many other essential options to control Forum and List layouts. It has enhanced features for both Participants and Moderators that makes running a forum much easier. And no custom CSS or PHP coding required!

Read the longer description on the plugin page, or visit our very active support forum for our theme, Weaver Xtreme to see this plugin in action on a real site: Weaver Support Forum.

all I can suggest is that you list everything about your site

php version
wordpress version
bbpress version
theme
all plugins

and if someone else has then issue, then maybe we can see some commonality.

Since switching to HTTPS you need to update your siteurl and homeurl to use HTTPS at /wp-admin/options-general.php

For multisite @ragir it depends how you have your site setup, this article covers your options on what you can, and can not do to switch to https for multisite 🙂

How to Set Up HTTPS on WordPress Multisite Without Headaches

Hello,

My website: http://www.yorkregiontutoring.com is showing the WordPress Dashboard on the top left when a participant is logged in. And when you do click on the wordpress graphic on the top left for example, it asks you to create a page..etc. How do you disable this?

Does everyone just have this turned on by default on their websites?

Furthermore, I don’t want to just disable the top bar as I want people to be able to see their user icon and click on the it and access shortcuts within the top bar if needed.

Thank you
Diana

Hi @russ8523,
I suppose you are talking about the bbp style pack plugin ? Could you post your question on the dedicated support forum for that plugin: https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bbp-style-pack ?

Thanks, Pascal.

Hi,
But you should not need to run anything from https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/bbpress-in-your-language/ . If you have a standard WordPress install, the language files are downloaded automatically.

How about other plugins that have translations available, do they work ? Like SEO or something ?

Hi,

I tried to start back from 0. I reinstalled wordpress 4.7.3, deleted loco translate, deleted and reinstalled bbpress. I then followed this guide : https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started/bbpress-in-your-language/ to download and install a translation which is apparently 100% complete for my language. Still it’s not completely working. I verified in /wp-admin/update-core.php and I have no updates. You cannot blame loco translate this time as it’s not even installed anymore on my website. Also, I can know my wordpress language is correctly setup because some translation does work as you can see on the following image :

Please help me, this really seem like a bug with your plugin…

Thanks

A common error after installation of BuddyPress from within the WordPress admin panel is to not set pretty permalinks. If you fail to do this then all of the links in the header will return 404 errors.

To fix this problem, enter the WordPress admin panel > Settings > Permalinks – set to any configuration other than the default configuration. The mod_rewrite must be enabled on your server for pretty permalinks to work.

Since I’ve installed some plugins, bbpress 2.6 beta 2 doesn’t allow me to login to wordpress admin console. After entering login and password nothing happens.
However, if I move bbpress folder from plugins I can login again. If I move it back or reinstall – can’t login to wordpress again.

I don’t know Loco Translate well, so try to ask on their support forum. The only thing I can say is that I have bbPress fully in English, in French and in Italian (on different sites) just by putting the whole WordPress into the correct language because bbPress is fully translated : https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/bbpress

@pcalexpc

If you switch your WordPress to Français in /wp-admin/options-general.php (Options > General), WordPress will download the French translation for bbPress automatically.

Hey,

I need a button to send a private message to a user. My thoughts:

I have here a function from Robin to show the first and lastname
add_action (‘bbp_theme_after_reply_author_details’, ‘rew_display_user_details’, 20);

function rew_display_user_details () {
$rew_id1=bbp_get_reply_author_id() ;
$rew_id2 = get_userdata( bbp_get_reply_author_id());
echo ‘<div class = “rew_display_user_details”>’ ;
echo $rew_id2->first_name ;
if ( bbp_is_user_keymaster() ) echo ‘ ‘.$rew_id2->last_name ;
echo ‘</div>’ ;
}

?>

I have the Plugin front end pm. In the documentation stand it is possible with that

User name pre-populate new message “To”

Where must a paste it in the function?

regards

Hi, I am trying to translate the frontend section of my forum, but I can only translate parts of it. Here’s a screenshot :

As you can see, I can translate the top sentence, but I cannot translate the form part. I even tried to manually edit the php files without success (reverted to default files after).

I am using Loco Translate for editing my translations and my wordpress language is correctly set because I can translate some parts. I also can see the sentences in the Loco Editor but event after changing them, they do not change in the frontend.

I hope I have given enough informations.

Thanks

Me again – same issue but slightly different scenario. The user above DID continue to have the same issues. The only way I was able to remedy it was to create a different WordPress user for her and she hasn’t had problems since.

Today, I got a message from another member. She can leave REPLIES, but cannot leave new topics. She has been in my forums for a year with no issues until now.

I cleared my site’s cache, she cleared her cache. So I did what I did last time – I created a new account for her in WordPress. Different user name, different email address. Under that new User, we STILL cannot get a new topic to post.

I’m at a loss trying to figure out what could possibly be going on – and not sure where to start to did in.

There’s been no profanity; I don’t think it has to do with Akismet.

Hello

I have only added style.css file with comment section and functions.php file with my_theme_enqueue_styles() function as it is advised in Codex (https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes). My website is not yet public, because I’m doing it for my customer and I don’t want to publish it before it is ready.

[lalit73545]

I am using bbpress forum plugins for my wordpress websites. so i just wanted to know how i can display all related post underneath the topic just like similar to word press blog post comment & reply. So you don’t have to click to another page to view the posts.

[mpnuu]

Hello

I installed bbPress on my website and added login sidebar to my forum page. It got working after some struggle. Then I had to create child theme for Twenty Sixteen theme. After that bbPress login sidebar moved to bottom of forum page. Can you give me some instructions how to get sidebar back to side of the page? Thanks!

I’m currently using WordPress 4.7.3 with Twenty Sixteen theme and bbPress 2.5.12.
My website is not yet public.

Hi

Bit of a beginner here so forgive me if I’m asking something which should be obvious!

I have installed BBpress on my wordpress site but when I click on the forums tab on the wordpress dashboard it seems the link is broken. It takes me to a “HTTP 500 error” default screen. I can click on “New forum” but not “All forums”. Similarly when you click on any of the forum links on the homepage, even those links appear broken as you don’t land on that forum. Even then, I get the same HTTP error. Any ideas?

[brettdarnesh]

Is there a way to add a list of topics users are subscribed to on a page so they can manage it?

I created a custom profile editor so they don’t go into the wordpress backend when users click on their forum gravatar seemed to be default on my installation. Or is there a front end profile editor I can use like in this forum (I can’t seem to find a plugin or anything for it)

I’m working an educational website that produces video content and uses a BBPress forum for discussion rather than the native WordPress comments. Here’s how it works:

I have a hook on wp_insert_post that creates a new BBPress topic when a new video post is created and saves this new topic_id to a _comment_topic_id meta field.

In my single-video.php template where the video is displayed, I’m using the BBPress [bbp-single-topic id=$topic_id] shortcode to display the topic thread and reply form for people to post comments.

All of this works great! I’m just having one problem – the “subscribe” feature of BBPress isn’t working when people post replies via the Video Single page. The reply is posted just fine, but subscribed users don’t receive a notification. If you’re not familiar – when a user subscribes to a thread, they receive an email whenever someone replies to the thread. This is still working fine when someone posts a reply via the actual Thread single page – it’s only a problem on the thread embedded via the shortcode on the Video single page.

I’ve tried digging into the core and I got so far as to discover that the bbp_new_reply action isn’t firing – BBPress uses a function called bbp_notify_topic_subscribers hooked into bbp_new_reply to send the notifications and that function isn’t running at all when a reply is made via the Video single page.

It seems that BBPress uses some hidden inputs to determine what actions to run after a reply has been submitted, but those seem to be included properly through the shortcode. These appear at the bottom of the Topic single form (that works properly);

    <input type="hidden" name="bbp_topic_id" id="bbp_topic_id" value="422573">
    <input type="hidden" name="bbp_reply_to" id="bbp_reply_to" value="0">
    <input type="hidden" name="action" id="bbp_post_action" value="bbp-new-reply">
    <input type="hidden" id="_wpnonce" name="_wpnonce" value="83ea236cd1">
    <input type="hidden" name="_wp_http_referer" value="/forums/topic/SLUG/">

And these appear at the bottom of the Video single form (that doesn’t)

    <input type="hidden" name="bbp_topic_id" id="bbp_topic_id" value="422573">
    <input type="hidden" name="bbp_reply_to" id="bbp_reply_to" value="0">
    <input type="hidden" name="action" id="bbp_post_action" value="bbp-new-reply">
    <input type="hidden" id="_wpnonce" name="_wpnonce" value="83ea236cd1">
    <input type="hidden" name="_wp_http_referer" value="/videos/SLUG/">

I’m at a loss for how to debug this issue further and could really use some help. BBPress has all kinds of page type/post type checks in the core that I’ve been ducking and weaving around, but this one has got me stumped. I suspect the problem is that SOMEWHERE it’s checking the post type of the current post, seeing it’s a video instead of a topic and bailing before the action runs, but I have no idea how or where to find that and how to patch around it.

Thanks!

Hello,

Sorry if I am bumping this old thread, but there’s already a thread open for this over wporg support forums at https://wordpress.org/support/topic/does-this-have-shortcode-can-use-this-in-wordpress-sidebar-as-form/. I left you a reply from there.

This is a clean install

Wordpress 4.7.3 – BBPress 2.5.12 – Buddypress 2.8.1

I have installed with Twentyseventeen theme and with BeTheme. Everything works fine except I have an problem and was hoping someone could help point me in the right direction to resolve an issue with the breadcrumbs.

When I am viewing the forums here is the breadcrumb string:

Home > Forums > “Forum name” > “Topic name”

That is exactly what I want. However, when I am viewing Buddypress pages, the breadcrumbs are:

Home > Forums > “Username”

I would prefer the breadcrumbs to be as follows:

Home > Members > “Username” when someone is viewing Buddypress pages.

Does anyone know how to achieve this????

Thanks in advance for your help.
