I didn’t do much searching but I turned this pageup. MyCred looks like a pretty good plugin within some good support behind it.

After changing My forums from private to public They disappeared. They can still be found on my latest posts page but they appear as closed. when I open them, it says they do not exsist.

Im uisng latest versions of bb press, buddypress and wordpress

[dman578]

wordpress = 3.6.1
bbpress = 2.4
theme = twenty ten with bbpress child (css heavily modified)

so when a new user registers, i have a plugin that allows me to accept or deny the new user registration. PLUGIN = New User Approve(1.5.2)

the new user gets email being sent during the approval and acceptance process:

“You have been approved to access MySite Community
Username: testdan1
http://www.mysite.com/community/wp-login.php”

That is all that the users gets when i approve them? where is the password? If i deny the user, they get:

“You have been denied access to MySite Community”

Start by watching this, it’s a bit old, but will get you started.

Then

Create a page called “forums” or whatever you set the forums page to be when you were in settings (see video), if you are using a custom menu, add this page to it. That way your have a fourms page on your site which has all the forum stuff inc. login which we’ll add next!

Next – install a further plugin called bbpress tweaks https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-wp-tweaks/

This :

Adds a forum specific sidebar to your forum page, so this can be different to the blog and static pages.

Gives you login widgets which along with recent comments and recent topics widget makes your forum sidebar have everything it needs

hello. sometimes i feel like a senior citizen using a computer for the first time when it comes to WordPress…
i’m working on a site http://www.evangelicalassociation.org/EAWordpress and i’m hoping to create a forum that requires a log-in and can receive email notifications when a new topic is posted. i’ve downloaded the latest version of bbpress as well as bbpress email notifications today.

where do i start? how do i add the forum to my page? when someone clicks on the ‘forum’ menu option in the navigation, will it prompt to create a log-in?

i’m very new to wordpress and i know very little about coding and things like that, so please be gentle 🙂

thank you for your help!!!

Howdy,

I have upgradet bbPress 1.1 (standalone) to bbPress 2.4 integrated in WordPress. Some new written posts will not shown in the forum-index. In the topic-overview it shows the correct post order (post time and date). I have installed the GD bbPress Tools and when I klick on show the newest replys, the order of the topics is confused. I think there is a problem with user rights, because some posts are displayed correctly and some do not. If the administrator with id 4 writes a post, it will not display correctly. When the user id 240 (new user) writes a new post, it will shown correct.

I had searched for sich problem, but the solutions I found was for bbPress 1.

What can I do?

Kind regards

[MoniqueR]

My visitors can post new topics and replies. They don’t have to register. But, by default they can not give tags to their topics or replies. How can I enable visitors to be able to give topic-tags?
In my opinion I think it is strange that there is no option to enable or disable this.
BBPress give the option to enable/disable anonymous posting, so why not embed an option where you can enable/disable tags for anonymous posting

I use BBPress 2.4 and WordPress 3.6.1.

Create a ticket on Trac so we can work on getting something into bbPress core

Hi, what version of bbpress and wordpress you use? It is too generic your post, report details of your error…

[loradillenkoffer]

Hello,

I have a problem when I try to integrate bbpress to wordpress. At the beginning of the installation I get an error message.
When I get to the end of the installation, the error messages are still present, and the forum can be found at the bottom of the page, after all the error messages.

I hope you can help me, if you need further information, do not hesitate to ask me. Thank you in advance.
Cordially.

Hi all, I’m running WordPress 3.6.1, Buddypress 1.8.2 and bbPress 2.4
Users are not getting any email notifications despite an @mention.
Notifications are working normally for mentions in the Activity stream .

Anyone else experience this problem?

[Xevo]

Best way to test is just turning off anything custom (plugins / themes) and change back to a normal WordPress theme.

[jbuesking]

Yes I have the latest version you updated. Thanks

I reset the forum and started from scratch. Ran the installer again and now it threw this error:

WordPress database error: [Table ‘ixxxxxxx_xxxxxxx.jos_kunena_topics’ doesn’t exist]

Greetings,

My “All forums” and “New forums” submenus aren’t showing up, so I can’t add new forums 🙁

I’m using bbPress 2.4, with WordPress 3.6.1 (didn’t work with the previous WP either, but I haven’t got around to posting the problem here).

I am also using WishList Member.

When I look in the Member list, I see a column for “Forum Role,” but there is nothing under my user row (other members have “Participant” or “Moderator”). When I go to edit my account (a WP Admin account), I don’t see any options for Forum Role.

I have tried disabling all bbPress extras, but this has not fixed the problem.

I suspect that the problem is with WishList Member (it has a set of “Membership Levels” on the user settings page), but I thought I’d ask here to see if anyone has had this problem before.

Thanks for any help,

Lee

Sorry, 3.6.1 on WordPress.

[Ryan Hellyer]

I only looked at the first link that you posted, and it seems to be using Reddis for caching static pages. That should work just as well for bbPress as it does for bbPress.

I assume that a good object caching setup would be more important to concentrate on for bbPress since many people will be logged in users and hence not see the statically cached pages anyway.

For what it’s worth, I use APC to handle both static page caching and object caching with bbPress. I haven’t experienced any problems with it. The sheer number of pages being cached did mean that I needed to adjust my cache refresh time however. When I added a new bbPress site to my server, it maxed out my APC RAM very quickly. Forums tend to have a lot more cacheable pages than a typical WordPress site and so keeping an eye on your RAM usage is quite important.

[Stephen Edgar]

I just had a quick read of those links you mentioned and I like what I read.

I wondered if there was a setup of this using Vagrant as I have been playing with this recently.

I had a read of this and then cloned this GitHub repo to my local machine.

Copied the Vagrantfile.redis file to Vagrantfile. and made a couple of network chances to the Vagrantfile to suit my local setup.

Ran Vagrant Up from the console and made a coffee.

Configured WordPress’ 5 minute install and everything was up and running in under 10 minutes 🙂

Sadly I’ve hit a brick wall trying to install bbPress (or any plugin for that matter) that I will most definitely look further into tomorrow.

[Erlend]

After reading about some very encouraging results with WordPress and redis (eamann.com, jeedo.net), along with seeing redis included in the core of modern forum suites like NodeBB and Discourse, I can’t help but wonder if redis might be the ideal caching solution for bbPress as well.

If anyone has some first-hand experiences to share, I’m all ears.

[Stephen Edgar]

It looks right to me, did you download the latest version and upload it to the correct location?

Thanks for you reply.

I am not getting the following error:

WordPress database error: [Table 'insomnia_tccjoomla.tvc4d_user' doesn't exist]
SELECT convert(user.userid USING "utf8") AS userid,convert(user.password USING "utf8") AS password,convert(user.salt USING "utf8") AS salt,convert(user.username USING "utf8") AS username,convert(user.email USING "utf8") AS email,convert(user.homepage USING "utf8") AS homepage,convert(user.joindate USING "utf8") AS joindate,convert(user.aim USING "utf8") AS aim,convert(user.yahoo USING "utf8") AS yahoo,convert(user.icq USING "utf8") AS icq,convert(user.msn USING "utf8") AS msn,convert(user.skype USING "utf8") AS skype FROM tvc4d_user AS user LIMIT 0, 100

I believe the table it should be looking for is: tccjoomla.tvc4d_users not user

[TaylorNotThatSwift]

If you have BuddyPress installed, this should work: mysite.com/members/wordpressusername/

If it doesn’t work you can just go to a forum thread and click the link to the profile of someone who has made a post.

My wordpress sidebar in the way of my forum. I need to make my forum full page. Also, I can navigate up or down in my forum. I don’t think my forum pages is pointing to the front page of my forum. Please help. (my website isn’t online yet)

Hey all! We have just released bbPress Notifications, which will make your bbPress give all your users private messaging, global notifications, google search integration and friend requests, along with @user mentions, and a slick navigation system.

I’d love it if we could get feedback, and reviews, positive and negative.

I want to display in WordPress search results page – 10 or less found results from BBPress (plugin) forums. I know that BBPress use custom post types (forum, topic, reply) but I don’t know how to do it. I try with WP Query, but it didn’t show nothing. I don’t want to override BBPress search page and functions, I just want to show some results in WordPress search page. Is this possible?

Thank you all in advance.

Here is the query I try:

<?php 
    // The Query
    $the_query = new WP_Query( array (
        'post_type' => array('topic', 'reply'),
        'posts_per_page' => 10,
        's'=> $s
    ));

    // The Loop
    if ( $the_query->have_posts() ) {
        while ( $the_query->have_posts() ) { $the_query->the_post();
            echo '<li>' . get_the_title() . '</li>';
        }
    } else {
    // no posts found
    }
    /* Restore original Post Data */
    wp_reset_postdata();
?>
