Im in need of this code as well, however when i add it to functions in my wordpress theme folder it crashes my website. I tried adding to bbpress functions as well but same problem. Any advice? :/

I am using WordPress 3.6, bbPress 2.3.2 on http://www.hphe.net

On the bbpress forums pages, when I try to view so-and-so’s profile, it is not displaying properly…it’s all squashed to the left side and impossible to read. I am extremely new to any type of coding. I went with WordPress to avoid having to know a lot of coding.

I appreciate any help!

To find your ‘Table Prefix’ open up phpMyAdmin on your webhost and it should look similar to this:

So in my case the table prefix will be ‘sp_’ (This is most likely the default for SimplePress)

Navigate to http://example.com/forums to see your forums, you can add a link to your WordPress menu linking to that URL etc

Also don’t forget to run the repair tools after the import or things just won’t look right.

Regarding your question on StackExchange on removing excess <p> & <br> tags I’ll post an update to the converter that shows how to do this in the next day or so (I have to do this for ~6 of the new converters) so you can take a look at what needs doing for SocialEngine…

Works very well with wp 3.6, i just installed it today without a hitch.

I have a wordpress site and a bbpress forum. I have found hundreds of posts that are appearing from users that are not registered. I don’t know how they are posting content to my forum or if they have set up something under my domain. My forum has a template through suffusion and looks nothing like the forum that has all the posts. Our website is: http://allinclusivevacationandtravel.com We have a limited amount of posts and no registered users except for me.

There are 130 pages of posts here under our domain: http://allinclusivevacationandtravel.com/forum/

Can someone please help me figure this out?

Ive had a search through the forums here and cant find an answer to my question, i have just installed bbpress and it integrates perfectly into my current wordpress installation. I notice whenever a post is made in bbpress the authors ip address is logged and is visible to the administrator. I would like to disable this and set it so that no ip addresses are stored at all.

From what i can tell the ip’s seem to be stored in the following db field:

wp_postmeta/meta_value

I have a function i found online for wordpress which prevents the ip from being logged:

add_filter('pre_comment_user_ip', 'no_ips');
function no_ips($comment_author_ip){
  return '';
}

Can the above be converted for use with bbpress?

Any advice would be appreciated 🙂

bbpress is under active development by JJJ, so the latest versions should work with the latest versions of wordpress.

[Xevo]

As far as I know bbpress is already build on wordpress’s custom post types, you would be better off trying something like this with post meta.

Doubt anything like that has been made for bbpress though.

bbpress != wordpress

If your a programmer, you should read up on the codex, if not I do not recommend to do this yourself. I would recommend rehiring the designer/programmer (if he has the necessary knowledge).

This has almost nothing to do with bbPress, as it uses the info from wordpress.

Here’s a page about it.

I am also having this issue. I assume it has to do with this option being ‘disabled’ as mentioned in the plugin at https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bbpress-enable-tinymce-visual-tab.

I tried installing that plugin and enabling but the editor still doesn’t show up. Anyone have any information about this?

Hi guys!

I’m a newbie in this field, so excuse me if my question is stupid, but I know you are the best in WP and I could use some help.

A couple o years ago I decided to create an Online Currency Converter and I paid a web-desiger to build a new and functional design.

Now I want to move it on WordPress because this gives me more liberty but I don’t know if I can and how should I do that. Some tutorials or tips could help me a lot! Thanks!

Hi.
Somehow I managed to make my submit button disappear, while adjusting my child theme. Now it’s not possible to create a new topic nor reply to existing topics. You can submit by hitting return, but of course this is not very handy.

If I change to the parent theme the button is visible. But surely, I want to keep my child theme.
I’ve gone through all the adjusted css and it doesn’t seem as if any buttons has been set to “display:none”.

Can someone please tell me how I get my submit button back?

I’m using WordPress 3.6 and bbpress Version 2.3.2
My child theme is based on Magazine Basic

same me. I want to plugin support “Next/Prev Topics in bbpress plugin in for wordpress”. Please.

WordPress with bbPress. Just got this post:

Clicking the link to go to page 2 of the General Discussion forum or the Introduce Yourself forum directs one to page 2 of the Favorite Cuisine thread (which actually has no posts).

So I went to check, and he’s part-right. General Discussion is fine but Introduce Yourself takes me to another forum but not the one he landed on. I tried five times and always the same one came up.

(I left, tried again and realized the topic it goes to is up on page one in the first ten posts. Page two should bring up the eleventh post).

I checked the topic I landed on and all settings are fine in the admin area.

(I won’t post the URL as it isn’t for all ages) but any idea what could be wrong?

[SickSquirrelTwo]

… or words to that effect. I had it and another error.I panicked but could not log in here to post (the “lost password” link never showed up) so Googled the error; it brought me back here! But I read the first thread in the search results and it ed me to a plugin conflict with Spam Destroyer. Deactivated it and viola! People have been telling me for weeks that they posted but I could not find anything.

I’m used to phpBB and the “new posts” button. I had to go through more than two dozen topics in the sidebar to look for new posts. This feature would be nice for those using bbPress and WordPress.

This is a thank you for the help and a suggestion

Hi,

I am currently looking into an issue, for which I didnt find any solution:

Since I am using the WordPress backend for profile editing, i dont want to give the user any access to the build in bbpress profile page. How can I disable this? I think the easiest way is to disable the link from the user name, but if you have a better idea i will be glad to hear it 🙂

Any input is much appreciated!!

How can you change the background of posts and the table containing the forum titles? The background of my core wordpress site is okay (I have Responsive theme installed), but the forum area should have a different color, especially the posts. Where can I find the apporpiate code sctions for this in the CSS?

[JosiahW]

When users register to my BuddyPress + bbPress site they are not being assigned the default role I have selected for them in the forums settings. It simply does not assign them any role.
I have to go in and manually assign them the role or use the “Remap existing users to default forum roles” tool.

Any idea what could be causing that? I have all other plugins disabled with the exception of: Custom Login 2.0 which just themes the existing wordpress login and registration pages.

There is a thread on this on WordPress.org – https://wordpress.org/support/topic/error-on-forum-pages?replies=7#post-4519232

Genesis 2 does not fully support bbPress. A fix is needed either in Genesis core itself or the compat plugin, but is not yet in place.

If you run bbPress do not upgrade to Genesis 2.0. Keep an eye out on that plugin for a future update to hopefully address the issue.

Works fine for me !

I have a phpBB (3.0.11) forum since many years. After a good clean up, I am down at these stats
1 200 members
18 000 subjects
52 000 answers

My urls looks like this
http://www.mysite.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=27944

In Google i get 280 000 results if I type this
“mysite.com/forum/viewtopic.php”

I am feeling this forum software (thanks for all these nice years!) gets behind the actual social life these years so I am looking to change for another forum (hopefully with Facebook login!)

What will happen if I decide to switch to installing bbPress into my actual WordPress ? I have read the codex, but doest my urls and so my results in google would all be lost (as I can’t see how a rewrite redirect url could work here anyway) ?
