Greetings!

Do I have any options to alter what happens when users “subscribe” to a topic or forum? Specifically, I would like a way to display something like “There is a new topic on our forum”, but not the actual text of the new topic or reply.

I work for a church that occasionally needs to delete/moderate inflammatory or inappropriate topics and replies from our members. We don’t want the content of these topics and replies to go to anyone’s inbox, if possible, but we want members to have a “subscribe” option and be alerted of new posts.

I’m using the most current BBPress and WordPress editions on an Envato theme called “Risen” (we are not married to the theme, and it can change if it is the problem). Our forums are all private and access is controlled with user groups in a plug-in called UAM.

Hi All,

My site is http://www.buyineastvale.com

I am using the latest version of WordPress.

I downloaded the bbPress plugin to use for my site’s forum.

Now I want to add a page of Forum FAQ’s as a sub-page underneath the “Forum” parent page.

However, when I create a new page on my site’s back end and then designate the “Forum” page as its parent page and upload it, that page on my site then gives me a message on the front end when clicking on it that says “Sorry, no such page. It seems we can’t find what you’re looking for. Perhaps searching, or one of the links below, can help.”

For the sake of this example, I created a page called “My Name Is” and assigned its location as a sub-page (with “Forum” being its parent page on the back end). And when clicking on the “My Name Is” page on the front end, I get the same “Sorry, no such page” message.

This leads me to believe it is an issue with bbPress (and not my theme, which is Weaver Xtreme).

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Thank you SO MUCH in advance!

Is there anyway to add image to the BBpress toolbar besides the “img” quicktag? Im afraid my members on my forum will not know how this works or there image wont have a link. Right now i have the GD bbPress Attachments plugin which can make a user add an attachment but the problem is when someone adds an attachment it gets added to my wordpress media which I do not want. Is there anyway to add an image to the visual side of the BBpress toobar?

[Robin W]

you can put a button on the forums pages using

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/

go to settings>bbp-style-pack>forum display and no. 5

Is there a way to redirect bbpress user profile to wordpress author page? Can anyone tell me some hooks that can be possibly put in the function.php?

Your help is highly appreciated.

I am still not able to understand it. First I dont know how to create a child theme and second I dont know how to do what you are suggesting. I am also facing some issues with buddy press. The buttons are not displaying properly.
Can you suggest any other good community plugin?

There is no plugin to just fix it. bbPress is inheriting a template from your theme that is causing this issue. Since all themes are different creating a plugin to fix them all would be really difficult.

To create a child theme you can read this: https://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

If you need help with anything , please tell me exactly what you need help with or at least tell me what you understand.

And what buttons are not displaying properly?? This is probably CSS so I could do this for you easily.

Also since you are using a paid theme (Canvas) , you might want to consider contacting your theme author for help.

I cant just do it for you for free, you can contact me through email if you want me to do it for you.

How can I do?
I also installed
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-do-short-codes/ but nothing has changed I could explain what I do?
Thanks!

Users are experiencing issues logging into and posting to forums at contracostabee.com

Even as Admin I log in on the front page in the MY FORUM and select News Tip (a forum with nothing posted in it as yet)

I get the oh bother you must be logged in and oh bother nothing is here.

I do this several times. I am logged in but same error.

Then I go to the wp-admin and re login there in the wp-admin login window. And then it works. I thought registration and login was supposed to be seamless between bbpress, buddypress and wordpress user database. Why is this happening and confusing and frustrating user to no end?

Hi, Firstly thanks for making such a great plugin, which once I can get working, will really change the lives of so many people.

I have clean install on XAMMP of just the following;
WordPress 4.2.2
BuddyPress 2.3.2.1
BBPress 2.5.7

However when both BuddyPress and BBPress are activated i get the following error message across the top of most screens

“Strict Standards: Declaration of BBP_Forums_Group_Extension::display() should be compatible with BP_Group_Extension::display($group_id = NULL) in C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-content\plugins\bbpress\includes\extend\buddypress\groups.php on line 28″

If I deactivate either BBPress or BuddyPress it goes away…

I have no other plugins install as only just started trying to use them.

I have seen some old previous messages about this same issue with a patch, however they see to be talking about the very different file structure to what this BuddyPress has…

Thanks in advance

wordpress version: 4.2.2
bbPress version: 2.5.7
Normally after activation of bbpress, I would be directed to a new page and 3 items (forums, topics, replies) would show up. The new website site I am currently working on (with X theme installed), however, doesn’t happen to do so. What happens is that right after I active the bbpress, it stays on the plugin page and says the plugin is activated. But there are no items showing up on left menu bar and also in the setting I do not find bbpress. All other plugins work well except for bbpress…

@lilmisskatie

Its the themes CSS causing an issue with the input box for the topic title.

This custom CSS should do it.

#bbpress-forums input#bbp_topic_title {
	float: none;
	padding: none;
}

#bbpress-forums .bbp-form p {
	float: none;
	margin: 0;
}

Tell your themes support this too.

THere is some solutions that might work but not a 100% , you might need to test this out in a test site first.

The center should be a tinymce button either by default or by installing tinymce advanced.

Well, my issue isn’t really laying in the website itself with the way it looks or the coding. My issue is, a fight heated up between me and an administrator on my site. He demoted me from Keymaster, without my permission. We made up, but the best he could get me back to was Administrator, not Keymaster. Now, we have no keymaster on the site to access certain things needed. How can I make my account back up to Keymaster?

It is just the quicktags api from WordPress. You see the same button when entering the html mode when creating a blog post.

See if this post helps, it says tinymce but there is also quicktags code in there.

Add TinyMCE and Quicktags visual editors to WordPress comments form

you can also use the basic comment quicktags plugin

[stiffmeister12]

Hello, I was wondering if I can have the same toolbar that is on my bbpress comments section in my blog comments section? So users can bold, link add images for my blog comments etc… Im not sure if this is a bbpress question or a wordpress question. Thanks

[Robkk]

There might be a way. I think there are a couple of hooks to change the users forum role??

But if phpBB added/removed forum participation capabilities then you might need to hire a develop to create this for you.

If it was just a rank then you can use this. I am not sure if its the points system that changes the rank or posts made.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/mycred/

There might be another plugin that ranks by just post count though.

I have no idea what is causing this but I would like to get rid of the white, boxy forum navigator and keep the sleek one below it. Here are some pictures:

WordPress: 4.2.2
Theme: StoreFront 1.4.6
bbPress: 2.5.7
JetPack: 3.5.3

Any ideas would be great.

I believe this is because of DB differences between phpBB 3.0x and 3.1x.

Current import only supports phpBB 3.0x

I was able to get rid of the error messages by creating the columns it complains about.

You can also try this: https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/attachment/ticket/2716/2716.1.diff

Hello,

As the topic says, i’m having issues importing from an upgraded phpBB v2.x forum.

I have approximately 4200 users, 1900 topics and 4400 replies on a phpBB v2 platform. I was able to successfully upgrade to v3.0.x and v3.1.x. As far as the phpBB upgrade goes, everything works, including authentication.

I am now trying to import into bbPress. I’ve tried using version bbPress 2.5.7 and 2.5.5. I’ve also tried using the new patch file that supports phpBB 3.1. I’m running WordPress 4.2.2, but also tried with 4.2. All on fresh installs with bbPress as the only plugin installed and activated.

I can see the passwords in user_meta. But I can’t login. No error other than the password is incorrect.

Would anyone be able to help? Am I out of luck coming form version 2.x of phpBB? If i’m out of luck, is the “Lost your password?” link the only route to fix passwords?

Thanks!!

SD17.
