thank you very much .. I am actually building an api for another weppaplication to communicate with the bbpress forums and I hardly could figure out how to create a new topic in a programmaticaly way out of the documentations

[eldesperado]

Hello,
– bbPress Version : 2.3.2
– WordPress Version : 3.5.2
– PHP/MySQL Version : PHP 5.3/MySQL 5.1
– Theme : Twenty Twelve (modified)
– website adress : local (127.0.0.1/etc …)

I just discovered this extension by mordauk and I made some changes on it to display on a page WordPress, the profile page from bbPress.

In includes/common/shortcodes.php :

<em>/*line 92 :*/</em>
			'bbp-profile-edit'     => array( $this, 'display_profile_edit'  ), // User Profile
<em>/*lines 747 to 762 :*/</em>
	 public function display_profile_edit() { 
 		 
 		                // Unset globals 
 		                $this->unset_globals(); 
 		 
 		                // Start output buffer 
 		                $this->start( 'bbp_profile_edit' ); 
 		 
 		                // Output templates 
 		                if ( is_user_logged_in() ) 
 		                        bbp_get_template_part( 'content', 'single-user'        ); 
 		 
 		                // Return contents of output buffer 
 		                return $this->end(); 
 	 
 	       } 

My problem is that the profile page is displayed correctly, but none of the links work.
Someone has an idea to solve this ?

Thanks

Hello everyone,

Completely new to bbPress here, so bear with me.

I’m running a forum in PHP-fusion, but want to join the wonderful world of bbPress and WordPress and the endless possibilities they present.

However i have encountered a problem as i want to transfer all the existing members and preferably old forum posts and blog posts to bbpress. I have been looking pretty much everywhere, but it seems like this is not possible unless i create some customized script.

This is way beyond my capabilities, so now im turning to the forum to ask if there really isnt any possibilites for making such a transfer/conversion or anyone have some great tips on what to do?

Thx in advance

[andreascm]

Hi there,
has anybody a solution for this problem?
If I had known that before, I won’t have tested this plugin…

Thank you for any hints!

Well more than 2 months after my attempt at upgrading from a 1.0.2 installation to the 2.2.4 version I’m still left with such a horrible mess that now I think it’s best to completely separate the bbPress from my WP installation and run it on a subdomain with it’s own separate MySQL database.

BUT I need some help to be sure I do the de-integration correctly. Fortunately there have been a limited number of both normal WP posts and forum posts in the interim, hopefully that will make it easy to identify those objects since I exported everything from the original database prior to the upgrade.

It looks like all the forum posts and meta are still in the bb_ tables, so as near as I can figure, this seems like what I should do:

1. Export all the bb_ tables to a sql backup file;
2. Export all the wp_ tables to a sql backup file;
3. Export just the wp_users table to a sql backup file for later bbPress use;
4. Create a new MySQL database for the WP installation and import the wp_tables to it;
5. Clean out any users with less than contributor role (not sure how to do this);
6. Change my wp-config.php to use the new WP database;
7. Create a new MySQL database for the bbPress installation;
8. Reinstall bbPress as a standalone install;
9. Import the bb_ tables to the new bbPress database;
10. Import the separate wp_users table into bb_users (? not sure if this can be done?);

Can anyone please advise me if this is the right approach, and how to handle the users? I cleaned out all of the inactive and bozo users and have not allowed any new registrations, so all of the remaining users can be imported to the new forum installation. I want to clean them out of the wp_users because I don’t allow registrations there except for author/contributors, which I add manually, so there are several hundred forum users that don’t need to be in my WP installation.

I need some help with the SQL query to isolate and remove any users from wp_users who are not admin/editor/author/contributor level users.

Many thanks for any help anyone can offer.

hi, lornalily, I have followed your advice and cleard caches but the bbpress is still not visible anywhere on the left menu of WP.

hopefully, Trifon has some idea what to do.

[jeteran]

Thanks for that Lynq.

THis is the solution:

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

[iannirmal]

One of my friend is willing to develop a forum for to support blind people. Is bbpress is supports to blind user browsers? Please let me know.

[m4j4]

Hi, Trifon,

I also have trouble installing bbpress in my WordPress.

I do follow the instructions on https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started-with-bbpress/

1. I go to the Add plugin section.
2. I find bbpress.
3. I install it.
4. I activate it (Here, when clicling the Activate button for the first time, the system says “You do not have the priviliges …”,, so I click the Activate button again and then it works. So I do manage to install bbpress. It is visible in the list of my plugins. Everything seems OK.)
5. But the problem is that bbpress does not appear in Settings sections (menu of wordpress on the left). So I do not know how ta access it, work with it.

I would be greatfull for some further instructions.

I suggest that you read up on the basics of bbPress in the documentation. A good place to start out for you would probably be here:
https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started-with-bbpress/

Also, for showing the forums on a page, you could create a page and use the shortcodes to show the index and such. You’ll find the shortcodes here:

I have installed Qtranslate plugin everything is set up and working fine with bbPress except one thing the Link Url is not translating automatically.

I can manually fix this problem by enclosing in Qtranslate function (qtrans_convertURL) on each link url but this is not efficient solution

Can anyone help me to give optimized or solution better than above

Thanks in advance

Hi,

I’m trying to give full admin capabilties for BBPress to a user with the Editor role, but it’s driving me nuts.

I’ve assigned them the Keymaster Role, but they still only have Forums in the Dashboard, no sign of Topics or Replies.

How can I let a user with the role ‘Editor’ access these Dashboard items?

I did a bunch of searching and 2.2 supposedly fixed this issue with the ability to allow you to assign a Forum role to people, but as you can see, that’s not working.

None of the other solutions I found worked either.

Any advice?

Cheers,
Jacob

I am using thesis version 2 and tried to open a forum for my site using bbpress. Everything seems to be working fine except the user profile page. Whenever I click on username to go the user profile page, the homepage shows up. All I can see is the homepage. Can anyone please tell me how can I show my user profile page on thesis version 2? Am I missing something?

[Tecca]

From what I can see, Enfold is just another WordPress theme that has edited some bbPress CSS and files. If that’s the case, then everything will be fine — you’d still be using your WordPress install with the bbPress plugin, so your tables wouldn’t go anywhere.

[lornalily]

Hello,

I may be changing my theme from Flex to Enfold because no one is supporting Flex anymore. I am worried if I do decide to do this can I take my forum members with me if they sign up in my bbpress forum. You see the Enfold theme has it’s own forum…

what do you suggest

also where are your installation video..? If you have them 🙂

thank you !

I use

WordPress plugin: bbPress WP Tweaks

to have a separate forum sidebar – works really well.

@Rasheed you are great man, its working 🙂

i was following the below links and i was just stuck ( it was not working)

https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-in-your-language/
http://www.anttivaihia.com/blog/2012/06/how-change-language-bbpress-20

I think they should update the above contents to save others time as your solution works like charm 🙂

Once again thanks you very much

[Rasheed Bydousi]

it is “bbpress-ar.mo”

[Sameer]

is this bbpress-ar.mo or bbpress-ar_AR.mo ??
i am confused now 🙁

[Rasheed Bydousi]

Add the file “bbpress-ar.mo” to the path:
/public_html/wp-content/languages/bbpress/

[Rasheed Bydousi]

You have an “export” link at the bottom of the page:

@Rasheed

Can you please share Arabic Language files for bbPress 2.2.3

Thanks in advance

If there is anybody interested, i had the same problem with Origin. To solve, i edited the file breadcrumb-trail.php (bad idea, but i’m not using a child theme but a completely modified version of Origin). So, on line 450, we had before:

/* Get the queried forum ID and its parent forum ID. */
$forum_id = get_queried_object_id();
$forum_parent_id = bbp_get_forum_parent( $forum_id );

And now, working fine (exactly as John said here):

/* Get the queried forum ID and its parent forum ID.  */
$forum_id = get_queried_object_id();
$forum_parent_id = bbp_get_forum_parent_id( $forum_id );

Hope it helps.
