Hi,

I am using the latest buddypress version with wordpress but a different theme (from rockettheme.com).

The “register” link on the frontpage is not linked to the “register” page. I can fix that in the admin dashboard by going to settings–>buddypress–>pages.

Here I need to create a site called “register” first.

My problem now is that this site is indeed called “register” but has no registration function whatsoever.

Can someone help me?

Thanks a lot for your support,
Fabian

I’m attempting to convert a phpBB2 forum to bbPress version 2.3.2.

I’ve selected the option to convert users, but it’s failing with the following error:

WordPress database error: [Unknown column 'users.user_form_salt' in 'field list']
SELECT convert(users.user_id USING "utf8") AS user_id,convert(users.user_password USING "utf8") AS user_password,convert(users.user_form_salt USING "utf8") AS user_form_salt,convert(users.username USING "utf8") AS username,convert(users.user_email USING "utf8") AS user_email,convert(users.user_website USING "utf8") AS user_website,convert(users.user_regdate USING "utf8") AS user_regdate,convert(users.user_aim USING "utf8") AS user_aim,convert(users.user_yim USING "utf8") AS user_yim,convert(users.user_icq USING "utf8") AS user_icq,convert(users.user_msnm USING "utf8") AS user_msnm,convert(users.user_jabber USING "utf8") AS user_jabber,convert(users.user_occ USING "utf8") AS user_occ,convert(users.user_interests USING "utf8") AS user_interests,convert(users.user_sig USING "utf8") AS user_sig,convert(users.user_from USING "utf8") AS user_from,convert(users.user_avatar USING "utf8") AS user_avatar FROM users AS users LIMIT 0, 100

Is there anything I can do the resolve the issue?

Thank you

Hi there,

I’m new to WordPress and BB Press so if this is a stupid question I am asorry!

My website forum is located here: http://www.clinicalrecoveryspecialists.com/forums/

2 questions:

Is there a way to Create a Header or Welcome Announcement at the top of the page above the forum itself?

Also, it loooks like the name of the Forum is pulling from the Title of the Website, is there a way to change that? I would like to rename it if possible.

Just a note: I am using most updated versions of WordPress and BBpress as well.

I appreciate the help!!

Oh no, poor you! Jack should be able to re-set them via the database as here – https://codex.wordpress.org/Resetting_Your_Password . I’m guessing your WordPress admin password and username are different to those for the control panel for account with the hosting company.

He can’t log in either, can he? I realise that’s a pretty obvious question but thought I’d ask. Good luck and congrats on the wedding! 🙂

Hi – I’d like the same tags allowed in my WordPress comments – <a href="" title=""> <abbr title=""> <acronym title=""> <b> <blockquote cite=""> <cite> <code> <del datetime=""> <em> <i> <q cite=""> <strike> <strong> – to be allowed in my bbPress posts. In particular, I’d like people to be unable to link to images in their posts. I think the allowed tags in WordPress comments are determined by the wp_filter_kses so was trying to use that.

I’ve tried many many different things and have the img tinymce (which I’ve enabled) button disabled and the html editor disappeared, so the only way to get an image is to type in <img src="whatever" /> to the visual editor, but I’d still like it to just not be possible.

I thought this would work but it hasn’t (I’ve also tried making a custom filter function which, of course, didn’t work, so I think it’s something here):

remove_filter( 'bp_get_the_topic_post_content', 'bp_forums_filter_kses', 1 );
add_filter( 'bp_get_the_topic_post_content', 'wp_filter_kses', 1 );

Anyone know? Or just stripping the img tags somehow would be great.

I have bbPress 2.3.2 installed and WordPress 3.5.1. Thanks. The site’s not live so I don’t have a link, apols.
(have edited so I can tick “follow up replies via email”)

Hi everyone.
First, my system:
wordpress 3.5.1.
buddypress 1.7.1 (with bbpress 2.3.2 integrated).

I’ve changed my site from buddypress group forums to bbpress 2.3.1. The transition went fine, but now I have this problem:

Users can’t edit their own messages.
I have also set option “Disallow editing after” to 15 minutes, but still users can’t edit their own posts.

Then, I have some difficulties to understand how forum visibility settings of bbpress (public, private, hidden) correlates to group visibility settings (public, private, hidden). If I set a group as hidden and than bbpress settings to “private” or “public”, new topics of groups forum appears in “latest topics”. Users that are not members of group that try to enter the forum get 404 error, but they still can read the topic, and this is not a good thing. If a users sets his group as hidden I think he don’t want to see it visible in latest topics, don’t you? 🙂

Hello!

I’ve been having this problem for so long I didn’t really notice it until some members on my site complained about it. Apparently, my forums page’s load time is quite long when you’re loading mysite.com/forums. I have buddypress running and I’m not able to configure my wordpress page to buddypress forums, I guess since bbpress is running. Everything is updated to the highest update. My breadcrumbs directly links most of my pages to the forum index; is there a way to have my page not redirect to itself?

[zeaks]

Great thanks, i never even thought of using the import/export options.

Is there any way to clean up the original sites database after moving the forums? Looks like forum information is within the WordPress tables instead of its own wpbb_ whatever tables, I don’t know much about databases so I could be wrong.

[dubbinz]

I am also facing this problem. At first I thought it was the various programs I had to deal with spam and general bad behaviour (akismet, wanguard and sucuri) but I disabled all the plugins and I also increased the amount of links in a post to 10 before it gets moved to pending in discussion settings. All settings for discussion have removed any need for moving posts to pending or marked for approval. Settings for akismet are unchecked in forums settings and comments blacklist and moderation list have empty fields. Topics or replies should not be going to pending but they are still going to pending and this is destroying my community. There is no message to the user saying that his reply or topic is awaiting moderation (unlike the OP) and the user continues to edit his topic or reply and post again which also ends up in the pending queue and then I have a load of the same topic edited in the pending queue.

Whatever is causing this is inside bbpress core. I need to know which setting to disable to ensure no topic or reply goes to pending. Yes I know the risks, this is another issue. Can anyone please tell me how to stop this happening. which files in bbpress do I have to edit.

BBPress 2.3.1
Wordpress 3.5.1

[Robin W]

Yes

Just set up the new area, and add the bbpress plugin

Then export (dashboard>tools>export) from the old area – you’ll want post and forums as minimum, but you can take everything if you want.

Then import into the new area. You will need to install the wordpress importer, but that is part of the process, so just say yes when prompted.

Part of the import process will ask you who to assign imported posts to, and you can decide to allocate them to admin, an existing user in the new site or (if you exported everything) to the imported users.

[zeaks]

Is it possible to move bbPress to another (new) WordPress install and keep all existing posts and forum content? I don’t care about users, I just want to keep the information on the forums.

[drobato]

The [bbp-topic-tags] shortcode works fine in my custom theme…but all the tags come out with the same font size. How do I get it so the tags display with different font sizes like on this forum?

Sorry for such a basic question…I’ve looked but can’t find an answer that applies to bbpress 2.0+.

I’m using wordpress 3.5.1 and bbpress 2.3.2

Thanks.

[John James Jacoby]

Good question. bbPress uses roles in a different way than BuddyPress does. BuddyPress does not have custom user roles the way WordPress and bbPress do. Instead, right now roles are just a way to identify what user’s have what position in the group member hierarchy: admin, moderator, member, banned, etc…

Which is to say, one does not directly effect the other in any real way.

[John James Jacoby]

Is something wrong with the code tags here that you’re unable to use them? I’m having a hard time following exactly what to do to duplicate the issue you’re having.

I’ve tried each permutation of posting code and swapping between editors, and it appears to work correctly for me in what is now bbPress 2.3.2. I’ve also synced up dev trunk with deploy trunk, so the beta tester plugin should have the most recent changes in it too.

(Keep in mind that the beta-tester plugin doesn’t grab the latest version directly from trunk; it gets what I merge into WordPress.org Extend’s trunk. This helps me keep what the beta-tester plugin gets stable, even though bbPress.org’s trunk might not me.)

[Ted Thompson]

Create a post in the visual editor it performs normally. Click “text” tab, and you see the tags as expected. Click the “visual” tab and again it appears normally.

Once POSTED, if you then attempt to edit it, you get the visual tab, and SEE the HTML tags. They are not however the actual tags, when you click the “text” tab you see they are actually & l t ; HTMLTAG & g t ;Whatever the text is& l t ;/HTMLTAG& g t ;

(I do believe that before 2.4-alpha that clicking the “text” tab would result in the same thing BEFORE posting, so it’s “semi” fixed)

WordPress 3.5.1
bbPress 4.2-alpha
bbPress – Mark as Read 0.3
bbPress Beta Tester 0.1
bbPress Enable TinyMCE Visual Tab 1.0
bbPress Unread Posts 1.0
GD bbPress Tools 1.4

Drop feedback about bbPress 2.3.2 here.

See the 2.3.2 milestone on Trac for changes.

I would like to display bbpress topic tags on top of each forum. I tried several template tags:

bb_tag_heat_map()
bb_get_topic_tags()
bb_list_tags()

None of the tags worked no matter where I inserted them (sidebar, bbpress templates, wordpress templates). Usually the rest of the code in the template won’t be executed anymore if I insert one of these tags.

The short code [bbp-topic-tags] works and everything else about tags works too.

Can someone tell me how to display topic tags? Is there a documentation for this template tags?

[NewSha]

Yaay! I found the solution: this plugin https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-notify/

The AIOSEO team is aware of it and it should be fixed soon.

[Ferdizz]

Hello! I’m very new to WordPress and bbPress/Buddypress, but I know a little bit about customizing.

My problem is that the navigation tab “Forums” (for the bbPress forum) won’t get the “current_page_item” class while active. Exactly the same happens with the “Members” tab (using Buddypress).

Is there an “easy” way to fix this problem? It’s quite annoying when it works for every tab except the “Forums” and the “Members” tab…

hmm, the other plugin i listed earlier seems to have been pulled from the wp plugin directory, authors page for that plugin is here – http://www.vinojcardoza.com/cardoza-wordpress-poll/

this poll plugin is still avail and also works fine w bbpress 2.3.1 via shortcode

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-polls/

note that shortcodes in bbpress may create other probs as jared mentioned above, using plugins like these will allow you to specify allowed shortcodes via whitelist and exclude [bbp_login] etc

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress2-shortcode-whitelist/

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

and this one will allow shortcodes by user role

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gd-bbpress-tools/

[Jared Atchison]

Hmm, strange. The plugin should trigger the download of https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/bbpress.zip which is 2.4 alpha (trunk).

We’ll have a look and see if the version compare isn’t running right. Thanks.

[chuckingit]

just a follow up in that i did some additional testing on a live production site and confirmed bug behavior so i just submitted a bug ticket here ->
