Hey there you can use this plugin https://wordpress.org/plugins/bbpress-members-only/

[ADorward]

No dice.

“body.bbPress #sidebar {display:none!important;}
body.bbPress .post {width:100%!important;}”

Any other ideas?
Thanks! Appreciate the help.

[ADorward]

Hey Spence.
I actually did that but nothing happened. I will keep changes so you can see the page again.
Any ideas?
Thanks for the support!

This is in the Newspro style.css sheet.
“…….
.PrimaryLeft .featuredPost p {
width:160px;
}
#wrapper .featuredPost {
position:relative;
}

body.bbPress #sidebar {display:none;}
body.bbPress .post {width:100%;}
“

I’ve been trying to figure this out for a while now, and haven’t had much luck. Where do I stick this code:

	if ( !current_user_can( 'edit_user' ) ) {

?>

	<div id="bbpress-forums">
    
    	You do not have access to this area of the web site. Please <a href="javascript:history.go(-1)">go back</a> or <a href="#">login</a>.
    
    </div>

<?php
	} else {

(or any alternative code) …So that if a guest tries to access the bbPress location, they are rejected.

Thanks!

Hi, I’ve set-up bbpress and buddy press (latest version) and initially enabled group forums. I’m now trying to disable group forums. Op the fronted site I can change the group settings and disable the group’s forum. In buddypress settings I can uncheck “Allow BuddyPress Groups to have their own forums”.

However, whatever I disable and uncheck, even if I switch off the entire bbPress plugin, when I open a Group, it still tries to reach the Group’s forum. For example: groups/mountainbike/forum and there you see that the page doesn’t exist.

So, disabling seems to work. But how do I change the settings so that upon clicking the group link, I start on the Group’s activity page? Even if I open a new group without a forum, the group link still tries to open a group forum.

I’m sure it’s a small thing, but can’t find it. Hope someone could reach out. Thanks in advance!

@johnjamesjacoby, can you share the bborg support forum theme？or write a article to explain the theme.

[deltachi78]

I posted the text below a couple of days ago. Since then, I have tried a different theme, tried installing the bbPress 2010 theme and even a couple mods to the page.php file I read about. Nothing’s working. Would really appreciate any advice. Thanks.
“I downloaded and installed bbPress. Put together a forum with three topics, added it to an existing page on my WordPress driven site and all was great! Half a dozen people registered, a couple of discussions began…it worked great. Now, all of a sudden with no warning, the forum is gone. If you click the page to view it, you see the path for the forum at the top, but nothing else: no topics, no area to add a topic or comment, nada. I’ve tried everything I can think of short of deleting the forum and starting over from scratch. Any thoughts? P.S. I can still see the forum and all topics/posts from the dashboard. I’m using wordpress 3.5.1 and bbPress 2.3.2. My site is henderson.lpnc.org.
Thanks for any help or advice!”

I have a multi-site installation of WordPress. I have created a local bbpress stylesheet in my theme that I want to load ONLY if the site administrator has activated the bbpress plugin. I am unclear on the conditional statement (e.g., “if(function_exists..”) to accomplish this as I do with other plugins that are optional. I have tried the following in my functions.php file but it throws an error. Please advise:

<?php 
//Load the bbpress styles if bbpress is installed //
if (class_exists( 'bbPress' ) ) {
?>
<link rel="stylesheet" id="bbpress_style" href="<?php echo get_stylesheet_directory_uri(); ?>/bbpress.css" type="text/css" media="screen" />
<? } ?>

Any input would be appreciated. Thank you!

Experienced with WP but new to bbPress

Have installed BuddyPress and bbPress plugins WP 3.5.1 bbPress 2.3.2 BuddyPress 1.7.2 on test site.

I’m logged in to the backend as admin and forum keymaster

Settings>BuddyPress

I have 3 tabs “Components” “Pages” and “Settings”

I think I should also have a tab “Forums” but this is not present.

I think this should be the page:

../wp-admin/options-general.php?page=bp-forums

But if I try and access directly I get “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.”

Have searched web and forums without any joy.

As I understand it without this tab I can’t make much progress

Any help much appreciated

I am also still experiencing this. I did post it in BuddyPress support as I didn’t know whether it is an issue with BuddyPress groups or bbPress forums.

https://buddypress.org/support/topic/buddypress-widget-still-shows-private-recent-topics-to-all-users/

[vfowler]

This is not an issue with bbPress 2.3.2 and BuddyPress 1.7.2 (within group forums at least).

[bigjimj]

Glad to see a response to this. Thanks for the info. I’m still having a problem however.

I don’t even have “Forums” in my settings menu anymore. When I click on “Settings” link for bbPress from the plugins section I get the message that I do not have permission to view that page.

The user profile that I have always used has the roles listed as “Administrator” and “Keymaster.” I also have another profile on my site and I changed the roles on that profile to be “Keymaster” for both Site Roll and Forum Roll. When I log in with that account I the the error message “Cheatin” uh?”

Thanks for any further help you can give me.

[iamtheroman]

I’m wondering it’s possible to use bbPress to accomplish the style of forum found here:

Where replies are listed in one big list.

Thank you.

Hi, sorry for kicking up this thread. But I have the same issue or related with disabling the group forum and the link above seems to be down.

I have the latest version of everything. Installed BBPress and BuddyPress. Enabled group forums. I now want to disable group forums. This seems a piece of cake. But when I disable group forums, on the frontpage the link to the group still tries to open [group]/forum. And this provides a notice” page doesn’t exist”.

It seems the group forum is disabled. How can I change the group link so that it doesn’t open to the forum by default, but (for example) the activity stream of the group?

Even when I open a new group without a forum, it still tries to open a forum for this group.

Can anyone tell me how to modify the result of “freshness” or to not appear or simply exit the format of the date of the last publication, for example March 20, 2013. thanks

Hey guys!

When I launched the site the forums worked. In a few months I didnt notice any activity on them so when BBpress broke I simply removed it from my menu.

Now, my website grew and I have some visitors that requested a forum. So when I enabled it again I found the same error.

http://www.airsoftclubnederland.nl/forums/forum/algemeen/

Thats the place where my forum hangs out. Is it a theme problem? I disabled the WP security plug-in as a test but it didnt fix it. I have some plug-ins active like social log-in and the likes. But I’m not sure where the start looking to fix this problem. Cant find anything on Google as well.

Curious if anyone can help me out with this 🙂

Hello,

I am trying to use this bbpress for this theme…

Atahualpa

But it doesnt seem to work… Can anyone help out?

[ninjatekservices]

jwind, if you figure it out, please let m know as well! I am struggling with exactly the same thing after having told a client they could (based on an older version of BBPress which used the WP User Roles functionality).

[Jeff Hester]

Aron and Irene,

I tried using the User Role Editor and resetting all roles, but no luck. Still no menus. If I click on the bbPress dashboard widget, I get a “Cheatin’ uh?” message.

[John James Jacoby]

The theme has CSS rules that are too broad. You’ll need to write some CSS yourself to counter it, and even the bbPress styles back out.

[Andrea Gandino]

Hi there,

in relation to the “ERROR: Are you sure you wanted to do that?” error, we can confirm that changing the port from 8888 to default (80) one fixes the issue on MAMP Pro.

[DNBrawler]

I need to filter the forums link, so it can take me to a different page when I click “Home > Forums”. Please don’t ask why I need this to be done.
