Hello Everybody,

I have a question for you. Actually, topic <title> is $sitemane >> topic – $topic.
I would like only $topic for my topic page.

How can I do that?

Thanks,

David

Hi,
I recently installed bbPress Version 2.3.2 on WordPress 3.5.2 and made two topics. However I can’t see a page where my users can see them. I cannot see an option in the ‘Forums’ section in settings on my site so how do I do this?

Hello

I want to add a mention to the quoting method in order to notify the user when someone quotes them.

So far I am not able display the user’s username that I’m quoting. I can only show the display name.

Does anyone know how to add the username into the textarea when you’re trying to quote someone??

Same problem here.

#bbpress-forums ul {
list-style: none outside none;
}
#bbpress-forums li {
list-style: none outside none;
}

Has absolutely no effect whatsoever. 🙁

HEEELLLLLP!

Hello,

I would like the logged in user to have the topics they have started or are participating in listed on my site. What is the best way to go about do this? The site is using BuddyPress 1.8 and bbPress 2.3.2

Any assistance would be much appreciated, thanks!

I’m wondering if there are any good plugins for member forum statistics out there. I’m imagining an admin page that lists members name, email, number of replies, and number of topics created. It would probably look something like the Users page. Optimally there would be an option to export and the columns could be toggle-able.

Searching hasn’t come up with much BBPress 2.0 Analytics Plugin is the closest but looks older, and there are many mentions of mini-stats but i can’t find it’s actual code anywhere (and it doesn’t sound like what I want).

Anybody…nobody…?

I have been with bbPress before it was a plugin for WordPress and have to thank all for the efforts and congratulate how far it has gone.
I decided to stick with bbPress after researching many other forums software because of how easy it was to integrate with WordPress.

Since I had some time off from college for the summer I decided to make my own customized theme for the whole site based on what I had. After several days playing with the CSS and a few functions/filters the whole site finally came together.

There is still a few things that I would like to implement, like posts count (which I did but it did not update the numbers, I have to manually repair the forums to keep them updated?) and being able to assign more title ranks (I was able to with Cubepoints but that project seems dead).

Just have a peek at my forums and let me know what you guys think. 🙂

Hey JJJ,

Thanks for the response. So, going to Tools > Forums, definitely did the trick by applying my default forum role “Participant” through to all current users.

However, it seems the issue is that when new users are created (outside of bbPress’s registration), they do not have a forum role assigned automatically. This I guess was just never an issue previously, as bbPress would use the default forum role when one did not exist. Is this no longer the case?

Is this the expected behavior? Or should I be figuring out how to modify my signup process to ensure this Forum Role gets assigned to the new user?

[John James Jacoby]

Hey Jason! You could try resetting the user roles, in: Tools > Forums

You can also try this neat little tool I wrote, to check out what capabilities specific users have in your forums: https://github.com/johnjamesjacoby/bbp-capabilities/

What you’re experiencing sounds like bbPress isn’t sure what to do with the role those users have, or doesn’t like the capabilities those users have saved in the DB. Other users have had similar issues, and have fixed them by remapping the roles with the above tool(s).

As the author of the bbPress Moderation plugin (http://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpressmoderation/) I am unable to continue maintaining the plugin or add any new features. I no longer use bbPress or the plugin.

If anyone would like to take over maintenance/ownership of the plugin, then please let me know and I’ll add access to the WordPress repo.

Thanks.

Ian.

If anyone cares the proper solution is just to copy loop-single-topic.php into your themes dir and edit till your hearts content. The only semi-tricky thing is that it must be in a /bbpress/ dir within your theme. For example:

wp-content/themes/yourtheme/bbpress/loop-single-topic.php

[blg002]

@tecca Awesome! Duh! I had tried that but without the /bbpress/ dir. Thanks for the help.

I’m currently running v2.0. I see from the chnagelog that that latest version (bbPress 2.3.2) is safe for upgrade to any 2.x version.

However, would people recommend going straight from version 2.0 to 2.3.2 or go to an intermediate version first and then on – or use an older version for stability?

Thanks

[samuel.hautcoeur]

@prikid: the file is includes/extend/buddypress/group.php in your bbPress plugin directory.

Hey @jwondrusch

This function actually removed all forum topics and replies for the front end view of my bbPress Wishlist site.

Any ideas?

[dvharrison]

Hi

I have just set up BBpress on one of our websites (not live yet) and everything seems to be working ok except for one little problem:

I have marked the forum private as I would prefer people to register first rather than bombard the forum with spam etc. But this generates a new problem as the private forum is automatically given a prefix of “Private:”

Please advise how I can removed the said prefix? I saw a thread for a bit of code to change this but it doesn;’t say which page it needs to be added to:

Please any help is gratefully received.

Thanks

I’ve got a couple thousand users that I’ve signed up as WordPress subscribers using Gravity Forms User Registration addon. So none of these users have an actual “Forum Role” assigned.

I’ve been using bbPress 2.2.4 for awhile now and after updating to bbPress 2.3.4, any of these users trying to view a forum get the 404 error page. I can fix the issue for an individual user by manually giving them a “Participant” Forum Role. Or if I put my site back to bbPress 2.2.4, forums come back for everyone.

Also, what’s interesting is that forums come up fine if a user isn’t logged in at all. But after they login, 404 errors.

Is this some sort of bug in the updated version, or did something change in this regard I should be aware of?

And I’m not sure if this is relevant, but this is on a multisite network using Multisite User Management plugin.

Hi – I’m having the same problem on a fresh install using Headway Themes: public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/extend/buddypress/group.php on line 308

I created a new parent so that group forums aren’t added to the Forum Root.

This is using bbPress 2.3.2, Buddypress 1.8, Headway 3.5.5 and WordPress 3.5.2.

Thanks.

[Tecca]

That’s how you should change it — except copy that file and put it into your theme’s directory:

wp-content/themes/yourtheme/bbpress

We are considering BBPress to power discussions on our high traffic website. The site also runs WP and we’ve had our share of scalability issues as we’ve grown. Searching the forums here I was terrified to read about known issues with slow query times and with private forums.

Can anyone confirm that these problems have been fixed with the latest version? is BBPress really scalable?

Our traffic / setup info:
– over 150k registered users
– over 1M unique visitors per month
– running latest version of WP v3.5.2
– have APC and Memcache installed on Apache
– use W3TC
– use HyperDB

[Rachel Biel]

@dani-girl, I got it to work! Whew!

I did a lot of different things, including installing an older version of bbPress, but I don’t know if that matters. Actually, it probably does, because I was then able to see the forums on the backend again.

What did seem to make a difference was downloading the Members Plugin and changing the roles for Administrator. A bunch of them were not checked, including the role of a Participant. I checked everything and was able to post again.

https://wordpress.org/plugins/members/

I hope that it doesn’t do this again. A major pain!

I want to increase the size of an avatar on a forums landing page. I could just go into loop-single-topic.php and change this line:

<?php printf( __( 'Started by: %1$s', 'bbpress' ), bbp_get_topic_author_link( array( 'size' => '14' ) ) ); ?>

But I’d rather not edit core files. I’m having troubles making this change in my functions.php with apply_filter. Wondering if anyone can help me out here.
