Hi all, I am currently creating a website which due it’s nature requires rather in depth terms and conditions, etc… There is the chance that at a later date I may be required to prove that users accepted these terms, as well as what the terms were at that date.

I am currently using the buddypress simple terms and conditions for registration, and cookie consent for privacy.

Will wordpress store this information automatically, or is there another step I need to take?

Many thanks.

it may be that your theme is overwriting it (or it could be lots of other reasons !)

try

#bbpress-forums {
font-size: 16px !important ;
}

or use my style pack, which will let you style fonts and much more

[Robin W]

not sure which bullets you are referring to, but this plugin will let you display without counts.

Hello,

I have a wordpress with some plugins and i can’t install bbpress properly (no links access to the admin menu)
The plugin i have is :
wpml
buddypress
yoast seo
woocommerce

is there an incompatibility with one plugin ?
i tested by unable those plugin and install first bbpress and it’s works.
if i install after no…

regards

[Robin W]

you can set up sections using the alternate template in my style pack plugin. This will also let you change how bbpress is styled.

Wordpress 4.7 bbPress 2.5.12. Need to globally turn off email notifications – they are triggering spam and shutting down other needed WordPress member notifications.

Is there a way to let them subscribe and keep notifications in the forum? I can’t find any solutions or plugins to at least turn the email sending on and off while I even figure out a solution.

Thanks!

Thx for your reply. I’m holding back on the migration in the meantime.

Other question, assigning a forum moderator to a forum (subforum not category) doesn’t seem to work. I assigned a user by his WordPress Username.

@mth75 Beta 2 was released yesterday, here’s the link:

Hi Installation went ok. When pressing the Forum button things looks ok and the way i want it.
But when choosing/pressing a specific forum the wordpress the primary widget and secondary widget area appears(left and right around the forum) so forum space shrinks in the middle 🙂
you could have a look at http://skunck.dyndns.org

Did create a new page with [bbp-forum-index] with Template options Full width, no sidebar.
Permalinks is still on Plain in my website… Please help !

Thank you for fast response. As you adviced, the content has been reposted:

https://wordpress.org/support/topic/post-track-seen-in-freshness-column-for-forbidden-user/

[mth75]

or when using buddypress:

BP Emails for BBP

would be nice if the function of this plugin could be integrated in BBPress.

[Robin W]

If this is an issue, then it will be caused by my private groups plugin, can you re-post this on my plugin’s support forum, and I’ll pick it up and progress from there

https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bbp-private-groups

[namruf15]

Hello, I’m not sure if I found a bug or it is a feature. I’m using WordPress website as a forum. I have three private groups where each have access for different forums. Under one category I have four forums – one group has access to three forums and other to the last one. When someone will put a post to one of the forums, person from group which is not permitted to see the post, can see in freshness column, that someone has wrote something (still he is not able to see the post but in fact he can see the action). Two screenshots for picture the issue:

http://screenshot.sh/m9itlEWm5RUbW

On pictures I’m logged into account which don’t have permissions to view the forum, to which post has been added. I’ll be grateful for any hint how to solve this issue.

Wordpress version – 4.7.1
bbPress version – 2.5.12
bbP private group version – 3.2.10

Hello,

I would like to know if it would be possible to have WordPress and BBPress using the same tags?

I thank you in advance

Kind regards

[Robin W]

4.7/4.7.1 and bbpress 2.5.12 work

If you have these then :

1. what php version are you running?

your host provider can answer this

or you can install

https://wordpress.org/plugins/display-php-version/

If it’s php7 then come back

otherwise

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 twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

@reedy I’m here if you need help. Can also use the #bbpress channel in WordPress’s Slack instance.

Beta 2 is out to fix these embarrassing little oversights.

The upgrade tools can be ran manually by visiting: Tools > Forums (they are at the bottom)

On WordPress.org, I manually ran a custom, stripped down version of this same tool, but mostly because 8 million users is a lot to trust without some supervision.

[Barry]

The WP Codex is a great starting point for learning how to do things like register a custom taxonomy … it comes to mind you might also want to explore plugins like Posts 2 Posts (which would offer an alternative way to go about this task).

[Robin W]

bbpress uses wordpress structure which works on a hierarchy, so a topic/post has a forum/post parent.

Would take a lot of customisation to make bbpress work differently to that – loads of functions would need total re-write.

Off-hand I can’t see how this would be achieved.

[senatorman]

@Thomas_Camaran first do this fix then do the upgrade

[courtneyleonis]

When I search my Forum I get a 502 error: the page request was canceled because it took too long to complete.

At first I thought it was only when you tried to search multiple words. But then it did work when I tried “crash cart” and “cell phone” and it did not work when I tried “annual” or “history”. So it seems very inconsistent.

WordPress version:4.6.2
bbPress version:2.5.11

Also please note that that ticket bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2685 that is referenced is fixed in version 2.6 of bbPress. So for the next version you will no longer need this.

Pascal.

Hello, I am having great difficulty getting any widgets to appear in my Forums sidebar. I believe now that it relates to the page I have bbPress running on. After initially installing bbPress I later added a new page and added [bbp-forum-index] as directed to do in the documentation. However, when I’ve tried to use the Forums page id to exclude the Forums link from automatically appearing in the footer it did not work. Also I had to use (.bbpress) in my css to style the header of the page as .page-id- was not working.
My issue still occurs when tested using Twenty Seventeen.

Just had a very long talk with Godaddy. Registration emails are simply not being generated. Other emails work. Registration emails do not. May have to re-install WordPress.
