Hello,

I recently just updated to BuddyPress 1.8 with the Default Theme and now my widgets are not showing unless members are logged in. Any suggestions? Thanks.

[littlesparrowblog]

How can I establish automatic (default) email notification for all our registered users, which they can opt out of? We just created a new website for our group and the users are not getting any emails unless they subscribe to the individual topics.

Also, as administrator, how do I send out a group email?

[Hugo Ashmore]

Had this issue for a while too. Checked once again with no plugins running, BP bleeding and bp-default theme, issue persists.

Hey guys!

Just installed bbPress since a week. Loving it so far 🙂 I was wondering, if there was a way where I can let people subscripe to topics, but not have it on by default? Some of the users have complained that they dont want to recieve all that e-email for topics that arent that important.

[ethanandrew]

That is the default configuration of bbpress, you cannot omit the /topic/ as it will always coming back and besides that points to a discussion or specific topic of the page. According to my friend from seo gold coast Australia, it is part of the systematic method for bbpress to have that one.

Hi, how can I remove the sidebar from my forum page? I’m trying to get a full width page for the forums. I’m using the 2012 default WordPress theme, http://goo.gl/kC0X2

Kindly advise.

Thanks!

[Tecca]

It’s possible that your theme has a bbpress.css file which is overriding whatever you’re putting in the default file. Regardless, you should be editing the file that’s in your theme’s directory, which would look similar to:

webroot / wp-content / themes / yourtheme / css / bbpress.css

If the file isn’t in there or you don’t have that folder in your theme, copy and paste the file over.

Also make sure you’re hard refreshing your browser to clear its cache, after making your changes (hold CTRL then press f5 on your keyboard, or press the browser’s refresh button a couple of times).

[yguvvala]

Hi Tecca,

That didnt work. changing this codes doesnt reflect any changes on my forums page. in my Godaddy account i am changing this under

webroot / wp-content / plugins / bbpress / templates / default / css / bbpress.css

if you think am editing wrong file please let me know.

[dvclmn]

Thanks for the reply, JJJ!

Really appreciate your time. I successfully uploaded my entire vB database into phpmyadmin on my server (dvclmn.com).

However I input all my details and unfortunately it still gave me ‘no forums to convert…’ etc.

To be honest I’m sure it’s just a matter of having input a small detail wrong; there’s just so many areas to make an error in!

Perhaps I could get clarification on each field, just to eliminate these areas.

Select Platform
Easy, that’s vBulletin.

Database Server
I am now trying to import from a database on the same server as the bbpress installation. Does this mean I use a) localhost b) my dedicated IP address or c) dvclmn.com OR http://www.dvclmn.com OR http://dvclmn.com?

Database Port
My server uses Apache, so it’s likely this is 3306; is there a way to find out for sure?

Database Name
Is it important to include the server username extension here? So username_database_name? Or is just database_name fine? (in this case it is [username]_anotherc_vb).

Database User
I have seen the option between username@localhost OR username@dvclmn.com OR just username. Which is going to work?

Database Password
Got that nailed haha

Table Prefix
I have just been enter vb_, as all the tables in the database look like this: “vb_access” and “vb_action” etc.

Have been keeping the Rows & Delay Time at their defaults, and selecting Convert Users (and sometimes Start Over & Purge for good measure).

I hope this is enough information for you. It is imperative I can get this working ASAP, as I mentioned before I am happy to pay for premium support if need be. Just need this to work.

Thanks,

Dave.

[dvclmn]

Hey guys, thanks for taking the time to look after this.

I know there are a lot of posts dedicated to vBulletin import issues, but after hours of searching I haven’t been able to find a resolution. Hoping you can help!

I have read the known issues page (http://codex.bbpress.org/import-forums/vbulletin/) thoroughly and have made sure every detail is correct:

Selected Platform: vBulletin
Database Server: IP or hostname (in my case another-castle.com)
Database Port Use default 3306 if unsure
Database Name Name of the database with your old forum data
Database User User for your database connection
Database Password Password to access the database
Table Prefix (in my case vb_)

I just get ‘no forums/users/etc to convert’.

No data is imported.

I know that you can’t know if I’m getting a password or username wrong, but I am using the details I use to successfully log in to my server/phpMyadmin etc.

I am in such urgent need of this to work that I am happy to pay for further support – whatever it takes. Please let me know if there’s any more information I can give to help this along.

Thanks so much.

Dave.

I am working on getting a drupal forum migrated to bbpress. I am using the bbpress importer tool. The forum I am migrating has about 4000 topics and 40000 replies. The migration works fine for a few topics, but seems to get stuck at random places after about a 1000 records are migrated. This makes me think that it is not a data problem. More likely some sort of timeout.

Have any of you experienced something similar? I am running things locally with the most recent stable versions of WP and bbpress.

Here is my script. It is not well-tested. Any suggestions for improvements are welcome and feel free to use it as part of bbpress in whatever way you feel like.

Thanks for that Lynq.

THis is the solution:

“Tools” -> “Forums” -> “Remap existing users to default forum roles”

[Rasheed Bydousi]

You have an “export” link at the bottom of the page:
https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/dev/ar/default

[irperera]

guys

I’m new to bbpress, my problem may be simple to other, but its twisting my mind.

anyways

once bbpress is installed, you have the links for forum at domain.com/forums, which shows all the categories. i would like the sidebar to be a different one from the default one. how do i go about doing this.

i cannot get the sidebar to change at all.

thanks

Ian

[Marcin Biegun]

1. create bbpress directory in your theme directory
2. copy there loop-single-forum.php from /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress
3. add wherever you wish the image to appear:
<?php echo get_the_post_thumbnail($post_id, 'full'); ?>

I have the same problem with version 2.3.2. After updating the menu items for topics, forums etc. are missing. All new posts get blocked by the spam settings and I do not know how to activate them without the menu item.
I played around with Settings > Forums as jonboldendesign wrote. The items appeared. Then I put the settings back to default. Now the menu items are gone again and I do not have the permission to access the Settings > Forums page (as WP admin!) Great stuff… 🙁

Hi, i have searched different forums here, and tried different solutions but not yet found the right one.

Im now using WordPress 3.5.2, and like many others here i have problems with my bbpress installation for 2.3.2, which started when the new bbpress plugin came out and i found my Forums menu had disappeared, and my admin user where locked out for trying to fix things straight. I tried this solution (“http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/lost-permissions-for-administrator/”)

1) deactivate plugin + delete plugin
2) manually installed older version from SVN (http://bbpress.svn.wordpress.org/branches/2.2/)
3) export forum data (from Tools)
4) reset forum plugin
6) installed wordpress import plugin
7) imported forum data

..and I where able to see my forums in the admin menu once again. However once i did update the plugin again, i where locked out and lost the forums in admin menu once again.

I haven’t been able to administer the keymaster to my Admin, i have tried the solution (before i updated bbpress to 2.3.2) with “Admin \ Tools \ Forums \ Remap existing users to default forum roles” and it says OK – fixed 6 roles, but when i check my Admin user in the users list im still just a Forum Participant. (After update i don’t see Forums under Admin \ Tools)

I try using the User Role Editor (but it may be i haven’t understood it fully yet… – im not able to administer the administrators capabilities through it, at least i havent found out how to do it), my Admin user has also another user name than “admin” – if that make this a problem?

In my forum, i (the admin) and the subscriber/editor users, is able to see the forum and the under-forums, and how many topics and replies/posts there are, but when i click one of the under-forums with ex. 12 topics and 16 posts. I get the message:

“This forum contains 12 topics and 4 replies…
Oh bother! No topics were found here!”

But im able to add new topics, and they seem to work like they should, but im not able to see my old topics, and i only see one reply – when i follow the freshness-link – it also acts in different ways – sometimes i get to a page – that

Im not too used with coding, so please explain carefully what i could/should do?
(And my english may not be all correct, as its not my main language).

My page is at http://www.politiorkester.no (in Norwegian) and the forum is hidden – since its on a membership required page.

[Robin W]

This should be the default position ie not logged in can view, but only logged in reply.

Check your forums (dashboard>forums) and pick any one of your forms to edit

You should have :

Visibility : Public on the top right hand side

This week’s question about bbPress:
The default display of the current user is the fullname (also here in this forum), but I want to change it into the nickname they have entered. How can this be achieved?

Answer: http://theme.firmasite.com/support/topic/display-username/

[arcandio]

I’m now having this same problem. I’ve been all over the site so far, and all I’ve really found is that I need to fix my mod_rewrites or reset my permalinks. To restate my problem, when I test a post on my forum, it loads a page similar to what ryandoz posted. If I refresh/reload the page, the proper page comes up.

I’m working with a pretty vanilla install here, until this happened, I hadn’t even changed the permalinks from the default install (done by SimpleScripts). I don’t know enough about apache to know how to properly fix my .htaccess file to rewrite the urls, and anyway, I would prefer if I could set it up in WordPress.

So, what’s the deal with the rewriting? What exactly is actually going on? bbPress is asking for a url that isn’t rewritten, then the server tells the client the page was moved? Is that not something that bbPress can handle? I really have to put extra Rewrite rules in my .htaccess if I want to have a vanilla install of WordPress use a vanilla install of the bbPress plugin?

Hello, I am using the latest version of bbPress (2.3.2), buddyPress and WP 3.5. In the settings-forums, I cannot get the check box to use the fancy editor to stick. I click it on, hit save, and when it refreshes the box is un-checked and not working. I tried to switch to the default themes and it still doesn’t work.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Hey BBPress!

I was wandering if ya’ll can help me out with this. So I have my theme styled so that each Forum gets its own background through the style.css file using the following lines:

.postid-17 {
background: #000000 url(http://alysiaworld.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/alysiasea.jpg) center top no-repeat fixed;
}

where postid-17 is the correlating WordPress post associated with the Forum.

The problem now is that when you visit a Topic within the Forum, the background goes back to the default image :/

I am thinking that there should be a code to pull the topics Parent Forum “postid” and then force the background to the topic.

I hope that makes sense. I can dig through code, but I am not so skilled with writing my own yet.

Thanks in advance for your help.

WordPress and BBPress are running the latest versions:

Site – htp://alysiaworld.com
Theme – Twentytwelve

[kettlewell]

Update:

I’ve figured it out.

Part of it was my theme using the post_type_archive_title()

Part was needing to set a filter:

function test_support() {
  return 'Support';
}
add_filter('bbp_get_forum_archive_title', 'test_support');

And part of it is needing to modify the default bbpress theme by placing it in my own theme directory, and modifying the hard-coded instances of Forums and Topics.

A future enhancement / feature would be some sort of an options file to allow this text to be modified in one place somewhere…

I’m using wordpress 3.5.1 with bbpress plugin 2.3.2.

Although I have users already registered, those users cannot login to bbpress. When they go to the default forum page, it gives the wp login page and then when they add in their credentials, it just redirects back to the same page stating they must be logged in to see the page.

They have the roll of participant and I’ve even downloaded the members plugin and added all of the participant functions to the subscriber roll yet still the same issue.

The only person who can view the forum is the administrator.

Any ideas? I’ve been trying to fix this now for hours and it’s driving me crazy. I’ve searched the web and haven’t found any solutions except for installing the member plugin, but still, it has no effect.

I’d hate to have to use another forum software, but if I can’t get this to work, I’ll have no other recourse.

Thanks!

Yes, that’s probably the next step – swapping your theme to one of the defaults eg twentytwelve and see if it comes up. If so then it’s a theme issue, suspect your theme is unloading sidebars at the wrong time – this should be correctable, but you need to prove it’s the issue first !
