Hi, I’m trying to edit the avatar size and get rid of by author in the recent topics widget without messing with core files. I’m new to messing with widgets. I’ve tried a few different methods and nothing has worked.

// Maybe get the topic author
				if ( 'on' == $settings['show_user'] ) :
					$author_link = bbp_get_topic_author_link( array( 'post_id' => $topic_id, 'type' => 'both', 'size' => 14 ) );
				endif; ?>

In wp-content>plugins>bbpress>includes>common>widgets.php

If my question is too much just please point me in the direction for what I need to learn about myself.

Thank you 🙂

That’s a good way of doing things. I simply did it this way, however:

#bbpress-forums .status-closed > li.bbp-topic-title > a.bbp-topic-permalink:before {
	content: "[Locked]";
	text-shadow: 1px 1px 0 #ffffff;
	color: #ff0000;
	margin-right: 5px;
}

Adds the [Locked] tag before the topic name, in red.

Thanks, but not what I’m asking for. 🙂

I can predict the actual URL structure itself. What I’m looking for are where the single reply URL’s are being used in your theme, making them accessible and allowing them to be crawled.

As a better example, can you find where those single reply permalinks are exposed here on bbpress.org? If so, can you walk me through where you’re seeing them?

[John James Jacoby]

Where are the single reply URL’s being exposed? If they are, it wasn’t done intentionally. There does need to exist some single permalink for each individual reply, as it’s how editing on the theme-side works.

It may help also if you include example URL’s of how you see this happening here on bbpress.org, so I can see it in context with a relatively stock installation.

I am currently doing a preliminary test import of a massive forum with 25 forums, 10K + Users, 70K + Topics and 1 Million + Replies from an ASP Playground Forum. I have successfully migrated from MS SQL to MySQL and converted the database structure into a working, mappable structure. I have started and stopped the import multiple times as I worked out the kinks in my custom ASP converter. At this point I have a few questions that I could use some help in answering.

1) There is one hashed user password field with no salt. I can’t seem to find good documentation on how the password process works. I have noticed in the bbPress1 and other converters that do not have salts that the callback_password and authenticate_password functions both just ‘return false’. What does this mean once the users are trying to login? How should I map the fields correctly and do I need an authenticate_password function?

2) With over a million replies, the import process takes a very long time (going on weeks now). When we proceed with a live conversion, we very much need to keep the forum’s downtime under a week and preferably we would keep it under 4 days. Does anyone have any tips for speeding up the conversion process?

Suppose someone wrote a question X, and got reply Y. I noticed that bbPress creates one URL that includes question X+Reply Y (forum->X), and a second URL that includes reply Y only, without question X (forum->X->Y). Google indexed both urls. Its duplicate content. Is there any way to configure bbPress not to create the second URL?

[knsheely]

There is a converter that now comes packaged with bbPress. You can run the converter by visiting Tools->Forums. There is no punBB converter included, but you can modify the Example.php converter based on punBB’s database structure. The converters are located in includes/admin/converter. The converter basically is a way to specify how the fields need to be mapped.

Unfortunately the Example.php seems to be missing a few key fields, so it would be good to look at the bbPress1.php converter for an idea of all of the necessary fields (ie. the topic post_content field has no field mapped to it in Example.php).

Anyone? This is one of those five second answers for the bbPress team, or anyone who’s done this. Thanks!

Is it possible to export from Social Engine 3 to the latest version of bbPress? Is there a tool out there for it?

[gladman]

Solved it for me…thanks.

[gladman]

solved it for me. thanks.

I got the same error but i think it is related to the latest version of NextGEN Gallery by Photocrati(http://www.nextgen-gallery.com/wordpress-gallery-plugin/). I deactivated that plugin and the error goes away.

Why haven’t bbPress 2.3.3 2.4 been released yet both look to be finished?
tickets for the milestone are closed
wordpress 3.6 is now out and so is buddypress 1.8

[hitkid]

Found it in the old bbpress twenty ten theme. Here it is for anyone who wants it.

Insert this into your template where you want it.

  <?php do_action( 'bbp_template_notices' ); ?>

				<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

					<div id="topics-front" class="bbp-topics-front">
						
						<div class="entry-content">

							<?php the_content(); ?>

							<?php bbp_get_template_part( 'content', 'archive-topic' ); ?>

						</div>
					</div><!-- #topics-front -->

				<?php endwhile; ?>

Just want to be sure before I go ahead. I’m getting conflicting messages that I need BuddyPress 1.7/1.8 (which our current theme (Rockettheme) isn’t ready for yet) or need to wait for bbPress 3.0.

[Michalco]

I suspect that the fact that bbPress creates a reply page for each topic, may cause some SEO duplicate content issues. Would like to hear your opinion about it

[akgt]

Why hasn’t bbPress 2.3.3 been released yet?

[thatmtnman]

In the new version I get the error:

Warning: in_array() [function.in-array]: Wrong datatype for second argument in /home/mydomain/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/functions.php on line 1199

Warning: in_array() [function.in-array]: Wrong datatype for second argument in /home/mydomain/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/functions.php on line 1199

Thought you should know.

Hi I have had this problem for a while where normal members of my buddypress site cannot post html into posts. As you know html is restricted for security reasons however I am ok with removing this restriction but I do not know how to

1. add more allowed tags to the filter
2. remove the filter so normal members can post unrestricted (yes I know the risks)

I have made a video displaying the problem and why I need to do this, I made it for my developer who is a paid for professional from India (the video made it easier for him to understand as his English is not great xD ) but he is having problems editing the filter.

I shown him this thread http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/allow-html-from-users/ which seems to have some information but every script posted here he seems to be having problems with.

I have to find some way to allow users to post this content. This is just haunting me because I am getting so many complaints from my community that I may even have to dump bbpress/buddypress altogether and create a normal vbuletin forums which I REALLY do not want to do at all.

Here is a video of my problem.

Hi,

Fresh install of bbPress on a fresh install of WP3.5.2 is giving me the same as kiagua:

Warning: in_array() expects parameter 2 to be array, null given in /abcde/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/functions.php on line 1199

Warning: in_array() expects parameter 2 to be array, null given in /abcde/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/functions.php on line 1199

Not that I’m aware of, no. Functions exist to assist with inserting of forums, topics, and replies, so it could be pretty easy with some random ipsum.

[Tux Kapono]

Given the following info:

April 26, 2013 bbPress 2.3.1 released
May 6, 2013 bbPress 2.3.2 released
April 8, 2013 BuddyPress 1.7 released

I would assume the answer is bbPress 2.3.2 is compatible with BuddyPress 1.6.5?

Hi guys, I’m having trouble showing the shortcode for recent posts on my home page after I entered in code to get my recent blog posts to show up on my home page.

Here is the code I used for recent posts:

$args = array( 'numberposts' => 3 );
$lastposts = get_posts( $args );
foreach($lastposts as $post) : setup_postdata($post); ?>
	<h2><a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2>
	<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php endforeach; ?>

I saw in another topic how to get 10 recent topics on your home page with shortcode, but it didn’t work after the above code. Could someone please help me with the code to get 10 recent topics to appear on my home page?

Using the current versions of wordpress, bbpress and buddypress. Working with a buddypress default child theme. I’m also newer to php, so go easy please 🙂

[nanodust]

@johnjamesjacoby awesome.

thanks BBPress for such a well designed and useful plugin !!

[bluelook]

I installed the same buyddpress and bbpress versions on another server and it works perfectly, so why doesn’t it work on another installation?
