Hi Robin and team,
I am using bbp Private groups plugin with bbpress. This has been of great help for many. However, I am having this strange issue with moderator type of forum user.
Moderator user though assigned to a single private group is able to view forum topics and create topic that belong to a different group.
Below are two users I created in the system. Both belong to same private group:

Name Private Group(s) Wordpress & bbPress Roles
—————– ——————– ————————–
nishant.moderator Group1 GroupA Subscriber/Moderator
nishant.participant Group1 GroupA Subscriber/Participant

I have created two forums. Below is a snapshot of Management information tab of bb private groups:
Group1 Group name : GroupA
No. users in this group : 2
Forums in this group :
ForumA
No. forums that have this group set : 1
Group2 Group name : GroupB
No. users in this group : 0
Forums in this group :
ForumB
No. forums that have this group set : 1

nishant.moderator is able to view topics and add topic for ForumB as well which should not be allowed ideally.

Please help me with this issue.

Thanks
Nishant

i found this plugin that does exactly what you say.

as long as you have allow anyone to register to site activated then it looks like it should work fine.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/dm-confirm-email/

there are plenty more plugins that also do this type of thing but they do additional things lik custom login forms. What i used in the past was a plugin called Register Plus Redux.

if you want something different and with more features go search the WordPress repository.

[Robkk]

hmmm thats weird

hopefully while your trying to fix it , you didn’t do more harm than good.

heres a list of things you can do

contact your hosting providers support

see if they can find any issues you might have if you installed an SSL certificate or any other issues that might cause it like a CDN setup or such in their environment but im only guessing.

post a topic here https://wordpress.org/support/forum/installation

im saying post a topic here because I don’t know much about this kind of issue , and im sure the people at their support team can help. I just know some stuff about bbPress and some stuff in WordPress to get by, like I said it’s highly unlikely that bbPress or BuddyPress could cause the issue im not ruling it out but its highly unlikely.

if your site is a live site do a scan also at sitecheck.sucuri.net

do a scan just in case something bad might of happened.

you can also wait until someone else picks up the topic from here and give you any other additional information.

[Robkk]

I haven’t found a plugin with that kind of functionality

you can create a sticky topic on your site, with guidelines , rules , and stuff to know about like whats the limit you held for editing a post.

other than that this kind of functionality seems kind of fancy so maybe some custom development is needed. go to http://jobs.wordpress.net/ and post a job.

[Robkk]

haha my bad typo

http://jobs.wordpress.net

[Brian]

I have renamed the plugins folder and i dont even get the wordpress login screen, its just going to my site ans saying

Sorry! That page doesn’t seem to exist.

[Robkk]

@editor-mike

you can try it , if it doesnt work deactivate it/uninstall it.

if it doesnt work then you might need some custom development

post a job at http://wordpress.net

mention that plugin though say that you just need an updated/customized to all your needs version of that plugin.

Hi

I have installed buddypress and then bbpress.

I created to users in another browser. I then logged out of the my wordpress site and when went back to loggin it wont allow me to. It will only accept the users i created for the buddypress site.

Now i am unable to login to wordpress ay help appriciated??

[Robkk]

i found this, i havent tested it though with the latest version of bbPress and WordPress though.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-ignore-user/

[Robkk]

maybe this plugin will work , only works without BuddyPress installed though

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

[Robkk]

i dont know about force but you could use this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-user-avatar/

then make a default avatar something ridiculous or a bland picture so they would want to change their avatar to not see their default avatar.

[Robkk]

also just found this plugin too , havent tested though.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-protected-forums/

Thanks, @Robkk I didn’t know how to use that – I didn’t realize it was as easy as adding it to my functions file.

Thanks for the addition @undergroundnetwork!

Since I posted I’ve been using this outdated-but-it-works plug-in.
https://wordpress.org/plugins/search-bbpress/

Although that plug-in, works, it also displays shows links to slides that I have on the homepage in the results – not a big deal as I don’t have too many slides but I’d rather that not happen.

In an effort to reduce plug-ins I’m going to give this code a shot.

Ciao,

L

I’ve added to the code as the above code does not search for Forum Titles, this code includes titles in the search as well:

/**
 * Include bbPress 'topic' custom post type in WordPress' search results */
 
function ntwb_bbp_topic_cpt_search( $topic_search ) {
	$topic_search['exclude_from_search'] = false;
	return $topic_search;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_register_topic_post_type', 'ntwb_bbp_topic_cpt_search' );

/**
 * Include bbPress 'forum' custom post type in WordPress' search results */

function ntwb_bbp_forum_cpt_search( $forum_search ) {
	$forum_search['exclude_from_search'] = false;
	return $forum_search;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_register_forum_post_type', 'ntwb_bbp_forum_cpt_search' );

/**
 * Include bbPress 'reply' custom post type in WordPress' search results  */

function ntwb_bbp_reply_cpt_search( $reply_search ) {
	$reply_search['exclude_from_search'] = false;
	return $reply_search;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_register_reply_post_type', 'ntwb_bbp_reply_cpt_search' );

@sceko

just checked and this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-enable-tinymce-visual-tab/

shows the visual editor in the edit page too.

if you still have issues reply back.

[Robkk]

try posting a job at http://jobs.wordpress.net/

or other freelance development sites like codible.com

[Robkk]

contact the plugin author about maybe improving it for other kinds of attachments.

other than that, http://jobs.wordpress.net/

[Robkk]

@melanie-bund

this is kind of complicated to me , im going to say this is custom development.

try to figure it out yourself or hire another developer at http://jobs.wordpress.net/.

or wait and see if someone else picks up this topic.

[Robin W]

go to https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress/developers/

all versions are there

[Robin W]

no it isn’t a default, I have a plugin that does this

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

what other plugins are you using?

[rmurdo]

I have the current version of bbspress and wordpress.

Most of my topics do not save, it brings back to a blank create a topic page. I have been able to save a couple of with very little text.

I have tried 2012 and 2014 themes and deactivated all other plugins.

If I add via the admin side and not the user interface it seems to work fine.

Anyone have suggestions? Thanks.

[Robin W]

ok, it is just a warning – see https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2309

[Robin W]

ok, the function needs the existence of a variable called $user_id (being the wordpress usreid of the profile user.

How/where are you adding this code?

[nicmak]

i am using WordPress 4.1

[stefaantje]

Hi

I’ve WordPress, latest version.
I installed BBPress.
Worked fine.
Installed ssl and connected it to my hosting.
Works fine.
Except BBpress suddenly returns 404’s.

I can find a few things on Google about this topic, but none seem to work.
Can anyone here help me out please to get BBpress working with SSL?

Thanks in advance.
