install this plugin

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-genesis-extend/

try this CSS

#bbpress-forums .bbp-reply-content p,
#bbpress-forums .bbp-breadcrumb p {
font-size: 15px;
}

if you feel like just using bbPress there are these two plugins.

bbPress has a group plugin

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/

and a friends plugin

https://wordpress.org/plugins/friends-for-bbpress/

[Robkk]

i think maybe this plugin will help.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-members-only/

maybe also this if you want to try groups

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-private-groups/

if you are just using the shortcode , bbPress doesnt allow shortcodes for security reasons like users pasting the [bbp-login] shortcode

since i assume this is just for admins you can use this plugin to use the shortcode.

My bbpress is giving this error after activation in debug mode: Notice: bbp_setup_current_user was called incorrectly. The current user is being initialized without using $wp->init(). Please see Debugging in WordPress for more information. (This message was added in version 2.3.) in C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-includes\functions.php on line 3560

Also I noticed that after activation, some ajax features on my site will no more work, for instance, if i visit the media page on the dashboard, it will load forever without giving any result.

I need urgent help please.

Thanks.

Hi,

Is used the code snippet from the codex and it worked fine.

How could I modify the code to choose a specific menu?

E.g. primary oder secondary. Actually “Edit Profil” is shown in all my menues and I just want to have it on my Primary Menu.

// Filter wp_nav_menu() to add profile link
add_filter( 'wp_nav_menu_items', 'my_nav_menu_profile_link' );
function my_nav_menu_profile_link($menu) {
    if (!is_user_logged_in())
        return $menu;
    else
        $current_user = wp_get_current_user();
        $user=$current_user->user_login ;
        $profilelink = '<li><a href="/forums/users/' . $user . '/edit">Edit Profile</a></li>';
        $menu = $menu . $profilelink;
        return $menu;
 
}

Layout and functionality – Examples you can use

Thanks!

Hi all!
Its a pretty noob question, but i didn’t find anything related to my issue…

I added a quicktag to the wordpress default editor


function generico_quicktags() {

if ( wp_script_is( 'quicktags' ) ) {
?>
<script type="text/javascript">
QTags.addButton(
'pov_generico',
'POV (Genérico)',
'[pov-generico]',
'[/pov-generico]'
);
QTags.addButton( 'pov_generico', 'p', '<p class="fala generico">', '</p>', '', 'Fala (Personagem Genérico)', 10 );
</script>
<?php
}

}
add_action( 'admin_print_footer_scripts', 'generico_quicktags' );


But this don’t show in bbpress reply editor. How can i add this there too?

suggest you try

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbp-topic-count/

[Robin W]

it could be done with code, suggest http://jobs.wordpress.net/ if you dontl have the skills, come back if you have good php, and I’ll point you at a file.

[Robin W]

bbPress is tested with wordpress default themes. It maybe a conflict – you need to check plugins and themes

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 twentytwelve, and see if this fixes.

Then come back

[Robin W]

Not sure I understand the question, but you could try

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

and look at the breadcrumb settings

[Robin W]

That can all be done, but you will need to find someone to do it.

suggest you try

http://jobs.wordpress.net/

[Robin W]

yes use the shortcode

[bsp-display-topic-index]

available in

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

once activated see settings>bbp style pack> shortcodes for a full explanation of how to use this

[Robin W]

forums should be fully functional for logged in users, so your issue should not be there !

A request for guidance from a bbPress newbie, who has searched for help and tried various plugins but not found a solution.

I am setting up a WordPress site (V4.2.2) with bbPress (v2.5.7). I want most forums to be browsable by registered logged-in users but not by the public. A logged-in user should be able to subscribe to a topic without admin approval, so they can contribute and get notified of new discussions or comments.

If I make the forum Private that seems to stop unsubscribed but logged in users from seeing the forum. I need something like a ‘Logged-in users’ permission.

Any guidance on how to set this up will be much appreciated – thank you.

I followed the advice under: Using bbPress Forums with BuddyPress Group Forums

It is possible and quite powerful to use both bbPress sitewide forums as well as BuddyPress Group Forums. A few caveats apply in order to ensure an easy setup:

1. After installing and activating bbPress, please go to your admin dashboard under “Pages/All Pages” and find any page using the slug of “forums”.

2. If such a page slug exists, as would be normally be the case if you first installed BuddyPress, it is recommended that you delete this page so as to free-up the use of the “forums” slug for bbPress.

3. Be sure that you also empty the trash of this “forums” page to free-up the slug.

4. You can then create a new page slug for BuddyPress Group Forums, using a different name. Eg: “Group Forums”.

5. After creating a new page (Eg: “Group Forums”), go into Settings/BuddyPress/Pages and choose this new page to act as the placeholder for BuddyPress Group Forums

6. Finally, go to Settings/Permalinks and click “Save” to ensure that you update your permalink structure

All was going well until I got to Step 6 and when I saved it crashed the wp-admin. I have spent two days attempting to fix the problem to no avail.

I have to turn off User Groups in Buddypress to get bbpress to load. When I turn on the User Groups and set the Group Forums at Settings/BuddyPress/Pages it crashes. Then I have to FTP Delete the bbpress and change the settings back in order to reload bbpress and take another run at it. Something is wrong.

I am using bbpress 2.5.7, BuddyPress 2.2.3.1, with the BuddyBoss Theme and Child Theme and WordPress 4.2.2. All other plugins are deactivated.

Any suggestions?

Hi!

I am planning to create a new forum website using bbPress. I want to change / add / remove topic headings. Since, I am yet planning I will use latest versions of WordPress and bbPress

eg;

instead of : Topic, Voices, Replies, Freshness

I want : Posts (Number of replies to the topic) Views (number of views) Posted By (Name /username of topic starter) Latest Reply (latest reply by + minutes ago)

I even want to add a few more headings like catagories

Thanks a lot for the help 🙂

[fouldsy99]

New user:

I’ve recently installed bbpress on my wordpress website.

The freshness/voice columns look out of shape, how can I fix this?

Here is the link: http://worldinsport.com/forums/forum/sports-general/

Many thanks

The plugin comes to wordpress org! Checkout https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-permalinks-with-id/

Right now without auto flushing rules 😭

[DevynCJohnson]

@robkk , thanks. Actually, I had written some code like that for my website late last night. The result can be seen in action at http://dcjtech.info/forum/articles/operating-systems/linux/ . I even figured out how to migrate the bbpress-simple-view-counts data to my implementation. The migration was easy (a few SQL queries via phpMyAdmin) and not at all complex as other developers thought (https://wordpress.org/support/topic/sync-with-simple-view-counts).

Hello!

First, I want to say how much I appreciate the BBpress platform. I’ve been using it for over a year now and it has served the site well.

I have ran into an issue where every single comment ever made on posts now appear below the forums. I’m completely baffled as to how to handle this. It does seem to be a theme issue as this does not happen with the TwentyFifteen theme. Is there a way to remove showing the comments altogether on any forum page (which is preferred actually).

Has anyone had this same issue? Is there a way to simply have the comments not show up at all in the forums? Is there code that I can place in my functions.php that will make them not appear in the forums?

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. As of now, this issue is causing some confusion and making my pages extremely long.

Hey Rob,
Yes – thank you. Dan has been very helpful. At this point, I think it’s becoming more of a preference question … as I am struggling with what path to take.

We definitely already have sitewide forums w/ vBulletin, so we could easily just keep WordPress as our blog and use site-wide forums w/ bbPress. The thing I feel like I’m missing there is the added sense of community that can be built via the “add friend” type thing you get w/ BuddyPress.

Beyond that, my biggest question is the use of Groups in BuddyPress. My concern I expressed in the other thread was that you can get the discussion happening inside a group (via the comment/status system) that is NOT part of the forum, and vice-versa. So, discussion is not happening in the same place. The big idea we had was to bring it all together.

I suppose the simplest idea would be to not enable groups, and use site-wide forums … but if not using Groups, I’m not sure what other big plus there is to BuddyPress.

Again – I realize at this point, it’s all subjective and preference. I’m enlisting some beta-testers to hit our staging site from our existing forums to see what they like/dislike.

[Hope]

Actually I already added ‘style’ to ‘span’, I added the paragraph ‘p’ as you mentioned but still the same issue!

Here’s the part of the HTML page that is treated in the function but still HTML tags appear in the post:

<p>
<span style="text-decoration: underline; color:
<a class="hashtag" rel="nofollow" href="http://localhost/wordpress/forums/search/?bbp_search=%23000080">#000080</a>
;”>
<em>
<strong>
<span style="font-size: 12pt;font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif">test</span>
</strong>
</em>
</p>

Again, have I missed something?

Thanks for your help
Hope
