Try

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

go to the logion tab, and you’ll see an option to add a profile link to the menu

If you install

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

and go to the login tab, you can set a redirect page

Hello zewitchi,

I had to change Register URI and Lost Password URI in bbPress widget. This was because I had previously WordPress installed on local server.

[Anonymous User 14235950]

Hi,

I am setting up a deployment site using BackupBuddy and wanted to kind of start with a fresh install of WordPress rather than just move my entire site and all of the files over all at once. I have tested out a lot of plugins in the past and I am always a bit of a clean freak and a little paranoid about what files the old plugin left or things they configured, so settings up a new WordPress installation from scratch and just moving over the plugins and data I use would be ideal (I think) since this way would leave all the unused files and old stuff behind.

So basically BackupBuddy told me to contact each plugin author to make sure that all of the files I would need to transfer that their plugin uses are located in their plugin’s folder.

Is this true? If there are any files that your plugin uses that aren’t in your plugins folder, could you let me know where they are located so that I can configure BackupBuddy to send those as well?

Thanks

On the wordpress I know is that plug. However, this system wp-monalisa does not work; /

[zuxxac]

for WordPress are probably a free plug-ins

Hello,
Thank you for your answer.
Meanwhile I have found where the problem is. There were residual links in bbPress widget from my local WordPress installation which I had to change after transfer to server.
After that I have combined bbPress login widget with Clean Login plugin pages to avoid redirection to WordPress login page after user registration. This combination seems to works OK.

Thanks @Robkk

I have a couple more regarding registration and login. In both instances, how can I control the page the user goes to after successful login?

I am using WordPress 4.2.2 running Jupiter theme and using bbpress login shortcode on a page.
(currently it stays on same login page with a successful login message)

Any assistance is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I have these exact questions, so thank you Robin!

@robkk, great appreciate that. The plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-notify-nospam/ is much better and does exactly what I was after. It actually caught me out for a few days that moderators were not receiving anything. Very strange that feature would not be part of the core plugin as there is little point for a moderator if they are not being notified of topics and replies and so on.

I think having a moderator per forum is a smart way to set things up. Again its a shame this feature has been requested over 2 years now. I will keep an eye on it and hopefully with a little luck it arrives soon. Thanks again for your help.

[Robkk]

So I guess my question is how do the moderators only get notifications of new topics posted?

Use this.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-notify-nospam/

Also is there a way to assign a moderator specifically to a single forum and not the entire bbpress forum set so to speak?

Not Yet. It has gained more attention in the last two years.

Hello to everybody,

I am currently working on a BBPRESS installation. I have 2 diferent parts on my website : a Blog AND a Forum.

I have a parent page for all my forums called “Forums” So, in my main nav, I have 2 items : “Blog” and “Forums”.

When I click on “Forums” in the nav, I go to the parent page of all my forums. In the nav, the item “Forums” gets the following classes in the HTML :
.menu-item menu-item-type-post_type .menu-item-object-page .current-menu-item .page_item .page-item-20 .current_page_item menu-item-22

Now, when I click on one of my forums, “forum 1” for exemple, my item “Forums” in the nav gets the folowing classes :
.menu-item .menu-item-type-post_type .menu-item-object-page .menu-item-22

and the item “blog” get the classes :
.menu-item .menu-item-type-post_type .menu-item-object-page .menu-item-23 .current_page_parent

I mean that “forum 1” should be a child page of “Forums” ?
Instead, it seems to be a child element of the blog. Does anybody know how to fix this ?

I have the latest version of wordpress and bbpress, work locally with Mamp, using Twenty15 as a theme.

If somebody have a solution, it would be great, thanks for your attention.

Guillaume

Hello Oyeben6, i have the same issue than you. Have you find any solution to solve this problem ?

I have the latest version of wordpress and BBpress, Twenty Fifteen as a principal theme, no other plugin working, reinstalled everything 2 times, changed the permalinks but work locally.

Thanks for your kind answer and have a nice day

Guillaume

This is a good one

Ajax comments might affect this , I think , I had a theme awhile ago that would mess with reply threading if I had Ajax comments enabled. If you have ajax comments then disable that and see if it works.

Other than that , you can allow me to test how your reply threading is doing. You can create me an account for your site with subscriber/participant capabilities and send the login information to my email.

If you want to develop it manually you can use any of these conditional tags for bbPress and WordPress.

bbPress Conditional Tags

https://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags

or you can use a plugin like

• Restrict Widgets
• Widget Logic

[Robkk]

That guide was for earlier version of bbPress ,it might be archived later for a new guide to take its place.

The following is written for version 2.2 of the bbPress WordPress plugin. Information in this tutorial may not be applicable to earlier or subsequent versions of the plugin.

See if the creating a theme section would help you.

Right now there is really just some placeholder links and text that I just wrote up real quick , so this guide might be improved in some later days.

It should help you create a child theme, understand what is usually in a theme. and how to customize it to your needs.

Customizing

[rolyestemonio]

Hi Everyone,

I am just newbie on this forum bbPress and i guess something is not right with this part:

Step 6: Copy the Default bbPress Theme to Your Child Theme Folder

The default files are no longer stored in wp-content > plugins > bbpress > bbp-themes. There is a folder called default at bbpress > templates > default, but which files need copying I do not know.

While still in FTP and looking at the root folder of your WordPress installation, go to bbPress’ theme folder. That is, go to wp-content > plugins > bbpress > bbp-themes > bbp-twentyten. Download all the files from this folder except style.css. These are the files that will style your bbPress theme.

Now return to your child theme folder (wp-content > themes > yourthemefolder-child). Upload the default bbPress theme files to the child theme folder. You can change the image you see for your child theme in the admin area by uploading a new screenshot.png image to this folder.

I did not saw wp-content > plugins > bbpress > bbp-themes > bbp-twentyten the plugin directory so maybe it was mess i guess. What i saw is this wp-content > plugins > bbpress > templates > default.

Any helps should highly appreciated.

Thanks.

Do the default bbPress notifications work when you subscribe to a topic or forum??

Test this without the wp-smtp plugin to test just bbPress.

You may need to use this https://wordpress.org/plugins/asyncronous-bbpress-subscriptions/ , but test the default bbPress subscriptions without wp-smtp and this plugin first.

ACCORDING TO THEMEBUILDER YOUR PLUGIN DOES NOT ALLOW DESCRIPTIONS

The forum description should show at the top of the forum to introduce the topic, between the title and the blue bar. Without it, it’s like walking into a room wanting to have a conversation and no one is there. Please fix this very basic common sense request. It’s simple, allow the dashboard text editor content to show up at the top of the page. Why wouldn’t you include it? Makes no sense. You want people to interact on a title alone.

FROM THE THEMEBUILDER

I have researched this in the BBPress support forums, and the description on the single forum page is not an option in BBPress.
You can even try changing to another theme and you will see that the description on the forum page will not display, it is not a theme issue, rather a BBPress issue.
Who ever told you otherwise was misleading you. Sure it can be done with customization, however it is not how BBPress operates out of the box.

In my research I came across this plugin, it will allow you to do what your after: https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-style-pack/

My forum is set to Public, but you cannot see any posts unless you are logged in.

Is there a way to change the visibility to allow visitors who are not logged in to see topic posts?

I’m also using the Ultimate Member plugin, in case that matters.

trying to get the feature image funtionality on front end so user can have the option to upload image about the Topic

This sounds like custom development , you might need a developer to do this type of thing.

get the feature image on Widget “Forum list” Default widget of BbPress plugin

You would need to create a new “Forums list” widget mostly based off the original bbPress default widget.

Then use get_the_post_thumbnail to render your featured images
