Is that the solution?

[yanseo]

+1 for this as I’m also trying to remove the avatar from the same line which I know how but editing the core file isn’t advisable.

Have you found the right way to do it via function that will overwrite the bbpress template-tag function?

Thanks!

Days have gone without any admin addressing, well, anything, and even more days allowing spam to clutter the forum. If you’re going to let bbPress die, at least have the good nature to let everyone know. In the meantime, hello Vanilla ~

This is the single most important update/plugin I am waiting/hoping for.
Would make bbpress more like the VBulletin and IPBoard.

AM still looking to solve this.

Hi

I’ve got a problem with custom functions. I would like to modify tag link, but I can’t find proper file to put add_filter in. I tried functions.php in the:
template directory, bbpress/, bbp-themes-compat/, bbp-themes/, bbp-twentyten/, but with no luck. I also created my-plugins/plugin.php but where do I find that plugin in the wordpress admin menu?

Second question: is that bbp_get_tag_link or something else? I can’t find proper documentation for that.

I have Mystique theme 3.3.2 and I wanted to install bbpress on my site http://nikolaandi.com/

When I created a forum in bbpress, it just shows blank page. Is this an issue with bbpress compatability on the theme? I have bbpress 2.3.2.

Thanks

We are considering using bbPress for a project. Is it possible to setup nested comments similar to the following example, ideally using bbPress settings?: http://screencast.com/t/pHi1Hjka

Hi all,

I wonder to know how to add the featured image on the blog index. I searched for previous enquiries about that subject but not found an answer.

The forum page where to add the featured image: http://www.battlefield-france.com/beta/forum

Thanks for your help!

Why hasn’t anyone gotten back with a suggestion at least lol? I’m having the same issue. bbPress is supposed to create three custom post types to get the user started creating a forum, and I don’t see the three either. And it isn’t just a theme issue. I’ve installed on three separate themes and it has always failed to produce the three custom post types.

[hans.azhar]

any example?

[Cory]

We started a forum on a WP blog using custom post-types as the forum posts, giving users front-end access to a post box. We’ve decided to move to using bbPress for the forum.

We have two instances of WP. One currently using the custom post types, and another we’re developing with BuddyPress and bbPress. When it’s time to switch to our new system, we want to keep the conversations that were created in the custom post types, and convert them to bbPress topics.

I’ve found a few plugins that claim to convert posts to bbPress topics, but the primary issue I’ve run into is that these scripts and/or plugins do not bring the post’s comments along as well.

I need my custom posts and comments to become bbPress topics and replies.

Looking at the plugins, it seems I just need to change the post types in the database to the correct types (eg., ‘custom-post’ and ‘comment’ into ‘topic’ and ‘reply’). If we get into the database to make those changes, should that work? Or is there something further we need to do?

Other ideas?

This “topic” was also discussed in an older (2 years old) Post.
But no clarification how “safe” it is to remove the mod_security rule for particular bbPress links (which ones, anyone?).

[Hansaplastique]

Since bbPress sanitizes a post, is it save to disable the mod_security rule (for forum pages only) concerning the SQL injection rules?

(what do you do on this forum?)

[Hansaplastique]

Alright found the cause of this issue: mod_secure is catching it 🙁

Any way to make this work without compromising security?
(ie. the bbpress.org server seems to be fine with posting this)

I am attempting to import bbpress 1 forum into the new bbpress plugin on a new site using the Import Forums tool in WordPress. I successfully did this in a test – once. I tried to do another test and haven’t been able to do it again successfully. When I start the conversion I get the yellow box at the bottom “Starting Conversion” and the turning wheel… the wheel keeps turning… an hour later, it’s still turning. It’s not progressing. I have to quit out of it. There is no new data in the DB. What is the issue here?

[nolimit966]

Hi there,
I am new to BBPress & would like to know the answer to a few questions please.

1: My current WordPress website uses a 3rd party plugin called “Capability Manager Enhanced” which allows my visitors to register to access specific content. I have created and named these user catagories:
Light
Standard
Professional users

I have created 3 forums on BBPress with the name names – Light, Standard and Professional customer forums. Will it be possible to use a 3rd party plugin to only allow specific user roles to access one of these forums?

Thank you

[daivdwhite]

It just a plugin for WordPress!

[Hansaplastique]

Since that worked just fine here, I’ll have to blame my own editor 🙂
(I’m using a rich editor, not TinyMCE)

If I send “rich” content to BBPress (ie. HTML), what would the proper formatting be for code?

[Hansaplastique]

Well after playing with this issue for several hours I have narrowed the problem down to this;

If I try to post the following trivial example code example:

update project_management set prj_first_activated = CURRENT_DATE;

the post will not be posted (I guess trying that here will help get insight – if it behaves the same, then I know that there is a good chance that it’s BBPress related).

If I leave the “=” out of the code however, it posts just fine.

[McMinnville_Mike]

I’m helping some friends with their website. I set it all up using WordPress and BBPress and they have asked me if I could setup a moderator user roll for the forum that would give a user limited powers but allow them to open / close / lock threads. Is there a plugin for this, or a way to set that up in BBPress already? I looked around in the plugin settings but don’t see that option anywhere.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

[Hansaplastique]

I have a section in my bbPress Forums (bbPress 2.3.2 + WordPress 3.5.2) related to SQL.
So … users will post SQL example code, but it appears bbPress is simply rejecting the entire post, without even a warning.

Is this a “standard” filtering by bbPress (to avoid injections)?
Is there a way around this limitation?
Does it involve only a few keywords/characters?

(Yes; I did try Google and searching this forum)

Any help or insight would be very much appreciated 🙂

[janhoos]

I’ll try that out! I used the .entry-title tag before. And that was used by metro. didnt use .bbPress

[@mercime]

The problem is the theme uses the same tag

@janhoos .bbPress is only added to the body tag only where bbPress is active. Hence, you could use body.bbPress to ID bbPress pages. I don’t use Metro, so I find it strange that .bbpress would be added to body tag in all pages.

[janhoos]

Thanks for the answer. The problem is the theme uses the same tag. I could alter it in my theme, but I would rather add a class in bbPress. As I bought the theme and I believe it will get updates every now and then. Although you can say the same about bbPress of course… 😛

[@mercime]

@janhoos to control page titles in bbPress pages, add to your stylesheet:

body.bbpress h1.entry-title {
// your styles here
}
