Hello!

Im registering a journalist who will be an author on my site.

Registration is done through the administrative part of the site, section – Users.

But after registration the user gets a link to the profile like this: website.com/forums/users/username/.

I don’t need it to be a forum member and it should have a standard link to wordpress profile. How do I do that? I couldn’t find a setting that would allow me to fix it.

Thank!

I double checked, it is not only forums not working all the pages and post is not working on classic visual editor, I will try to reinstall wordpress

this is a known bug.

either

if( !function_exists( 'bbpress_browser_supports_js' ) ){
	function bbpress_browser_supports_js() {
		echo '<script>document.body.classList.remove("no-js");</script>';
	}
	add_action( 'wp_footer', 'bbpress_browser_supports_js' );
} 

Put this in your child theme’s function file –

ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

or use

Code Snippets

or

install

bbp style pack

which has the fix built in

bbpress now requires wordpress, but you can set these two up with bbpress version 2.x, and then import the bbpress1 forum

so once installed go to

dashboard>tools>forums>import forums and select bbpress1

Hi there. I discovered bbPress circa 2007. I might have updated the version since, and most likely did. I probably stopped using it by 2010. I don’t know how to even determine what version it is (filename ?).

At that time, I was not using WordPress on that domain. I used bbPress as a standalone forum software.

Bottom line: is it possible to upgrade that installation? What would be my steps to at least salvage the db, perhaps install a WordPress and re-use the old bbPress. Quite honestly, just curious.

bbpress (here and on your site) uses the gravatar system, so upload you pic to there

https://en.gravatar.com/

or for your site you can also use a wordpress upload plugin such as

WP User Avatars

it could be a theme or plugin issue

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentytwenty, and see if this fixes.

Plugins

If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

If you cannot do this to your site (say because it is live) then use the ‘troubleshooting’ features of this plugin to let you test without affecting other users

looks like a theme issue- your theme is seeing this url as a post and showing a ‘post excerpt’

try

bbPress WP Tweaks

to see if changing the default wrapper will help

I’ve been battling this bug for months now and it’s driving me up the wall.

When a forum user has more than one page of forum topics or replies, the pagination links do not generate correctly.

Take this user, for example: …com/members/adaptprep/forums/

For forum topics, the URL that is generated for the page 2 link is:
…com/members/adaptprep/page/2/
when it should be
…com/members/adaptprep/forums/topics/page/2/

For forum replies, the URL that is generated for the page 2 link is:
…com/members/adaptprep/page/2/
when it should be
…com/members/adaptprep/forums/replies/page/2/

I have seen many users with similar issues, but so far no solutions. Can anyone help?

I should say that I simply help out here, I am not a bbpress plugin author, but have several plugins that add to bbpress capability.

Simply they both have registration functions as they are separate plugins, so if you only use one, it is useful to have a registration function, but as I say any WordPress registration function will do the job.

As for my second para, perhaps if I re-phrased it to read as I intended…

Many people do not use both bbpress and buddypress, rather some have just bbpress or just buddypress, but some like to have both – for instance I don’t use buddypress on any of my sites but many have just bbpress.

[restorm]

Thanks, Robin. I understand that both BuddyPress and BBPress create WordPress users. But if Buddypress users and BBpress users are identical, I’m wondering why BBPress has a Forum registration function.

The second part of your response seems to be assuming that I was asking why BuddyPress and BBPress aren’t included in WordPress. I wasn’t asking that. I was asking why Buddypress and BBpress aren’t together in one plugin.

[Robin W]

Buddypress and bbpress just use wordpress registration and login, so any wordpress, buddypress and/or bbpress registration/login will register/log you into all these.

Many people do not need either bbpress or buddypress, but some like to have both – for instance I don’t use buddypress on any of my sites.

[gene-stevo]

Hi Folks, I’ve used bbPress successfully before but I think I’ve done something wrong this time around.
I’ve added a menu item (for logged in users) to the forums but neither of the new forums displays.
Previously each forum would be displayed one above the other but this time just some search text.
Forums page:https://conwycameraclub.com/forums/
Sample forum when previewed from editor:
https://conwycameraclub.com/forums/forum/general-chit-chat/
or…forum/how-do-i
I’m sure I must have missed something but can’t think what. It appeared so simple last time.
Cheers, Eugene

Hi again,

I made a change, it seems to be with permalinks. When I change to “plain” it showed up in the link of the forum but other site pages’ custumization doesn’t show up like contact with wordpress.com/contact example. Here is the forum website link: https://liberognulinux.wpcomstaging.com/forums/ and this is the link that works by changing the permalink plain https://liberognulinux.wpcomstaging.com/?page_id=50

[gnu95]

Hi,

I am having problems setting up the forum for my community.
I have used the short code [bbp-forum-index] on the “forum” page but nothing appears on the screen, it is blank.
The subscription I take for my website is on wordpress.com and I’ve seen a few tutorials on how to setup the bbPress but had no success. It seems others on the internet have more options on wordpress than my subscription on wordpress.com, hope this helps to figure out.

I hope to get this done.

Cheers and waiting for a reply,
André Machado

If I understand the question then

bbp style pack

once activated go to

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Forum Display item 6

[Robin W]

sorry, since Divi is a paid product, and bbpress is a free one, suggest you refer to Divi and how to get the two working – Divi claim they integrate viz ‘bbPress should work seamlessly with all the best WordPress themes including Divi and Extra. As there’s no need to change themes to use it, bbPress is ideal for anyone starting a new website as well as those with an existing site they’d like to enhance with a discussion area.’

How to Use bbPress to Add a Forum to Your WordPress Website

[shontelle1b]

Hello,
I am running WordPress 5.8.2 with an Eduma Child theme. I have LearnPress and bbPress (v2.6.6) installed and I have an issue with forums.
Course A is attached to Forum A and this has been working well for over a year. I recently created Course B which is a duplicate of Course A. Course B is attached to Forum A.
Users who are signed up for Course B gets the message ‘ You are not enrolled in the course’ when they try to access their forum which is Forum A.
Please can you help????
Thanks

[Robin W]

Not quite this, but close

bbp style pack

dashboard>settings>bbp style pack>Unread posts

[Robin W]

I’ve just taken a look.

bbpress uses the wordpress ‘untrash’ function to restore topics and replies.

That wordpress function includes a note saying

* By default posts that are restored will be assigned a status of 'draft'.
* Prior to WordPress 5.6.0, restored posts were always assigned their original status.

so this was a change in WordPress 5.6

However WordPress helpfully includes a hook we can link to to restore the previous status automatically

add_filter ('wp_untrash_post_status', 'wp_untrash_post_set_previous_status' , 10 , 3) ;

Put this in your child theme’s function file –

ie wp-content/themes/%your-theme-name%/functions.php

where %your-theme-name% is the name of your theme

or use
