    Thanks for all the reports and not as I hoped in that it doesn’t look like there is a common denominator between you all except to say you all use WordPress & bbPress ๐Ÿ™

    I still can’t reproduce the error and share your frustration and we’ll keep trying to find this nasty little bug and get it fixed ๐Ÿ˜‰

    From what I can see if you use just ‘ar’ it should work for both as per https://ar.wordpress.org/

    Try contacting the Arabic translation via https://ar.wordpress.org/contact/

    You could also ask the question on https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/

    Wooo… Hang on a second… Why are you using the ‘unsupported’ old bbPress v1.x? (This was retired ~2 years ago)

    And to quote you “I know this is going to sound defeatist and lazy but I simply cannot believe that in this day and age of automation that BBP makes you have to do all of this technical stuff.”

    You should be installing WordPress and using the bbPress v2.x Plugin and that IS supported and instructions I gave were for the bbPress 2.x plugin.

    The extra info I had in my original reply was for ‘if’ you wanted to add some extra styling by adding the thumbnail pics of the YouTube videos as custom images to your topic descriptions. It was meant to just be a pointer that ‘if’ you wanted this type of look for your forums ‘it’ could be done with some custom customizations.

    The ONLY thing you need to do is make sure embeds are turned on for bbPress, that’s it and it is I believe enabled by default (I thought there was a setting in WordPress for this but the setting was removed and is enabled by default)

    Essentially you shouldn’t have had to do anything, just post a YouTube link in a topic or reply in your forum and it should work as you expect it should.

    Here’s the permalink to the translation ‘Search’ in GlotPress for English Australian.

    If you click ‘Details’ (you might have to be logged in) you will see each place ‘Search’ is listed for translation, one of those is templates/default/bbpress/form-search.php:17 and that is the one you are looking for.

    Thank you for your answer.

    Well, I must insist:
    If ‘ar’ is used, only BBpress is in arabic and if ‘ar_AR’ is used, only WordPress is in arabic.

    What you point out may be so in writing but pointing it out will not change the fact that it’s not working in real life.
    It’s quick and easy to verify and the marge of error of doing it wrong is very small.
    So, I’m quite positive.

    So, what are my options then?

    Thank you for your help.

    WordPress: 3.8 bbPress: 2.5.2 website: http://nacbrewclub.com

    When I (or any of the members of this site) hit “edit profile” we see a page like this..

    with just a list of all the user info and no way to actually edit any of it.

    tried adding “User Role Editor” but it had no affect.

    I would really like to turn off the WordPress user option but I’m using Woo Commerce to sell memberships to participate on the forum (and a few other things) so i don’t think that is an option.

    I can supply some log-in info if anyone needs it to help.

    Thanks,

    Jimmy

    Hi – thanks for your reply. I know this is going to sound defeatist and lazy but I simply cannot believe that in this day and age of automation that BBP makes you have to do all of this technical stuff.

    I run a blog for my client that you can see here on non-hosted WP. They’re very happy with it:

    http://hissign.wordpress.com/

    You’ll see in the blog that it’s so easy for me to just plug a YTV video in there. So now my client wants a forum where they can allow others to post a wide variety of YouTube videos presented in ASL (like the example in the first post). But what’s mind blowing to me is when I set up BBPress, I’m amazed that this feature of embed is not right there and ready to go; but instead, I have to tweak and do all kinds of complex stuff like adding codes and stuff. Wow.

    I chose WP because the blog (not the forum) does all of this for you conveniently so I can do my job of publishing and not have to worry or figure out all of these codes and stuff. Why in the world would bbPress be completely different.

    Anyway, thanks for your help and I’m not really sure what to do at this point about my client’s forum needs.

    Hey,

    I use some other plugins providing shortcodes. The work fine on every page, but not in topics or response of the bbpress forum.

    For example this progress bar plugin
    http://wordpress.org/plugins/progress-bar/

    How can I add the function that the shortcodes will work in bbpress forums?

    Thanks for your help!

    So, I went in to the DB and changed my s15:”bbp_participant” to s13:”bbp_keymaster” and can now see everything again.

    So, somehow the role still existed, though wasn’t able to be seen by User Role Editor plugin or the rest of WordPress.

    I hope that helps @jjj

    users -> delete imported_user with the option to move all topics/replies to the original users.

    Just go to your WordPress Admin Dashboard and select the the ‘imported_username’ and click delete, then select the ‘username’ from the dropdown.

    When bbPress does the import if a user already exists then it will be created with the prefix imported_ as part of the username.

    Typically this happens after doing the import a couple of times without previously having deleted the imported users.

    Thanks for this ๐Ÿ™‚

    Any chance you’d be able to update the codex so it isn’t out of date?
    https://codex.bbpress.org/step-by-step-guide-to-creating-a-custom-bbpress-theme/

    (You login with your normal wordpress.org/bbpress.org username & password as anyone can edit the codex)

    Strange that it failed but it is the only plugin of this type that I know of. It is probably in the ‘advanced’ category of setup and maintaining also.

    I’m kind of out of other advice here other than to say if you really want it maybe hiring someone to set it up for you would be the best way forward. http://jobs.wordpress.net/

    The codex page for this is outdated and a lot of the threads are for older versions so here is a version for WP 3.8, bbPress 2.5.2.

    Resources

    Here are the pages from which I pieced this together.

    http://codex.bbpress.org/step-by-step-guide-to-creating-a-custom-bbpress-theme/
    http://codex.wordpress.org/Child_Themes

    WordPress Child Themes – What, Why & How

    Initial Setup

    Install WordPress and bbPress.

    Step #1: Create a child theme of your WordPress theme.

    Even though what you’re wanting to change is bbPress and not your WordPress, there are not separate themes for plugins, so you need to create a child theme of whatever WordPress theme you are using to have a place to put the bbPress plugin child theme files. This will ensure that any updates to bbPress or your WordPress theme will not overwrite your changes. Here is how you create a child theme:

    1. FTP to your website
    2. Go to ../wp-content/themes
    3. Create a new folder for your child theme. Name it yourtheme-child for the sake of organization.
    4. Create a new file called style.css and add the below, changing the valuesto the value for your child theme. The critical fields are Theme Name, Template, and the the parent theme directory name (which should be the same as “Template”) in the @import. Everything else is used by wordpress.org for categorizing templates so don’t stress if you don’t know what to put there:

    /*
     Theme Name: Your Theme Name Child
     Theme URI: Your website if you don't intend to publish a separate site just for your theme
     Description: A brief description of your child theme
     Author: your name
     Author URI: your website
     Template: parent-theme-directory
     Version: 1.0.0
     Tags:  whatever tags you might want to use for your child theme
    */
    
    @import url("../parent-theme-directory/style.css");
    
    /* =Theme customization starts here
    -------------------------------------------------------------- */

    5. FTP your newly created style.css to ../wp-content/themes/yourtheme-child

    Step #2: Add your bbPress Child Theme files to your WordPress Child Theme

    1. Create a folder called “bbpress” on your local machine.
    2. FTP to ../wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates
    3. Download the contents of the “Default” folder to the “bbpress” folder on your local machine
    4. Edit the files you want to change for bbPress (see bbpress-theme-template-files link under resources above).
    5. Delete any files you haven’t changed. You can skip this step if it’s confusing, but you should try to only upload files you’ve changed.
    6. FTP to ../wp/content/themes/yourtheme-child
    7. Create a folder called “bbpress” inside yourtheme-child
    8. Copy the contents of the “bbpress” folder in your local machine to the “bbpress” folder inside your child theme folder.

    Step #3: Activate your Child Theme

    Once you have created your child theme and made changes to the bbPress files in the child theme, you need to activate the child theme in order to see the changes on your site.

    1. Log into your WordPress admin panel
    2. Go to Appearance -> Themes
    3. Find your child theme. It would be the same as the “Theme Name” you gave it in the first line of the style.css you created in Step 1.
    4. Click “live preview” and make sure nothing has gone horribly wrong.
    5. Activate the child theme.

    Since you didn’t change any files from your wordpress theme, the theme for the site will be inherited from the parent theme so the only changes you should see are the changes you made to the bbpress files that you uploaded to your child theme. The only problem I encountered was that because it was a new theme, my custom “header top menu” was not associated with the theme, so I just had to go into the menu and check the box to tell it to use that custom menu as the header menu.

    My problem is, as soon as I uploaded it, my site went blank. I had to get in touch with Bluehost to resolve the problem. I did use the WordPress plugin uploader. I don’t know if it would work using FTP through CPanel. My other problem is, I don’t think I’m good enough to ‘make’ it work. Does that make sense? I need plug-n-play type plugins because I can’t tell you how many times I’ve uploaded one and tried to follow the instructions for the various settings and once again, broken my site.

    You should use define(โ€˜WPLANGโ€™, โ€˜arโ€™); as both WordPress & bbPress Arabic translations use ar

    Hi,

    I installed WordPress (3.8) and BBpress (2.4) in arab for a client.
    But I can’t have both translations at the same time…

    If I want to have WordPress in arab, it only works if I to tweak the wp-config this way: define(‘WPLANG’, ‘ar_AR’); -> then, BBpress remains in english
    But if I want to have BBPress in arab, it only works if I tweak the wp-config this way: define(‘WPLANG’, ‘ar’); -> then, WordPress remains in english

    So far, it’s one OR the other, but I would like, logically, one AND the other.

    So…what can I do?

    Thanks

    How’d you go?

    If you’ve had no luck see the following article section where it gives you details to add a plugin from a .zip file (the .zip file you can get from the above GitHub link to the plugin ‘Download Zip).

    ‘Install a Plugin using Upload Method in WordPress Admin Panel’

    Surprisingly this method isn’t outlined in the WordPress Codex here (it should be) https://codex.wordpress.org/Managing_Plugins#Installing_Plugins

    You need to make sure embeds are enabled for both bbPress & WordPress

    Auto-embed Links
    Enable forum participants to embed links from YouTube, Twitter, and others by simply pasting a link into their topic or reply. This is done using the WordPress oEmbed API. More information and a full list of supported sites can be found on the Embed Codex page.

    https://codex.bbpress.org/forum-settings/ https://codex.wordpress.org/Embeds

    You could enable Featured Images for your theme and bbPress and also display the actual image just as the site you link to does (at the left of the topic/post)

    Find out if your theme supports ‘Featured Images’ and if so then enabling them in some customized bbPress templates would mirror that same look. ๐Ÿ™‚

    I see the issue covered in ticket 2493 as clouding the issue here – it certainly did for me. You post a new topic or reply, don’t check the “Notify me…” check box at the bottom – because you are already subscribed – get unsubscribed because you didn’t check the box and get no email notifications from that point onward! I am using WordPress 3.8 with bbPress 2.5.2.

    I would like a ”’Subscribe”’ link on the ”’Forums”’ page that gives me or any other registered forum user an email for both new topics and replies for any and all forum (including sub-forum) activity. Intuitive behavior for top level forum ”’Subscribe”’ is getting an email for ”’any”’ non-spam activity for that forum and all its sub-forums, if any. I deem anything else (ie, leaving out the sub-forums) as extremely counter-intuitive, even though some people may want that some of the time.

    RSS is either unknown, too much trouble, or potentially going away for my forum users who want notifications. I would also greatly prefer these emails to be sourced ”’after”’ the “Bad Behavior” and “Akismet” plugins have deemed the posting to ”’not”’ be spam.

    Right now I could hack something together for the top level, likely using the “bbpress email notifications” 0.3 plugin to generate email to a mailman distribution that my forum users could subscribe to. But it would be such an ugly hack and a nuisance to maintain. Setting it up so a spammer couldn’t do evil things with it would also be a pain.

    I’d suggest you create a WordPress page and use the shortcode [bbp-forum-index] and then after that short code at your disclaimer text and style accordingly.
