I would like to display bbpress topic tags on top of each forum. I tried several template tags:

bb_tag_heat_map()
bb_get_topic_tags()
bb_list_tags()

None of the tags worked no matter where I inserted them (sidebar, bbpress templates, wordpress templates). Usually the rest of the code in the template won’t be executed anymore if I insert one of these tags.

The short code [bbp-topic-tags] works and everything else about tags works too.

Can someone tell me how to display topic tags? Is there a documentation for this template tags?

Almost 3 weeks now. Have you got some time to spare now @unsalkorkmaz ? I’ve made some mockups and found some good references. You have the e-mail mentioned above.

@Jared – WOW – that seemed to do the trick … THANK YOU … i will update my trac ticket … as fyi, part of me thinks forum permalinks should work with that option on or off but hey, it now works* with it set on so that is good enough for me … thanks again for pointer as this was driving me a bit nutty and driving me a bit towards “Now what did i do wrong … what do i no understand about flushing permalinks, configuring this yada yada” thus while my confidence might have dipped a bit during this testing experience, i am certainly grateful for helpful bbPress community and pros that nudge us forward for success results :>) cordially, chuck scott

*for others who might stumble on this thread – the working part means that now anybody who is on the network as a registered user, but not a member of a particular sub site that uses forums, with this option Jared mentions set to “on” said users when they log in to that sub site will see forums with working permalinks – in my case, they were treated as subscribers thus could not comment or create new forums …

Yaay! I found the solution: this plugin https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-notify/

After recent upgrades (not sure if 2.3 or 2.3.1) all my “participant” users can’t reply to or post new topics. I tried many things based on user role post, but I’m still stuck.

– Ran the repair tool to ensure all subscribers are mapped as forum “participants”
– Used the “Members” plugins to enable subscribers to post/reply to forums
– Re-installed bbpress
– When through the code, and it appears participant don’t get granted to the proper rights.

Even though it was not independent from the “blog” privileges before, it was way easier to use a visual permission editor.

Any idea what to do?

[Tbermudas]

Please, I’m waiting a response to set up my site… And I can’t find anything on bbpress codex.

[Jared Atchison]

The AIOSEO team is aware of it and it should be fixed soon.

Not at all related to bbPress. How did you find a 4 year old topic, and think it was worth bumping?

Closing this topic, since it’s old and not relevant.

Hello, when I tried to access forum slug URL ” example . com/forum ” it gave me not found page, I don’t know if it is meant to be like that but I didn’t like it so I made the forums base the same, so is there a performance/seo penalty or errors tend to happen cause of that? of course it show me the two errors ( Possible bbPress conflict: Forum slug ) in the admin panel but everything else work as supposed, so is it okay?

[Ferdizz]

Hello! I’m very new to WordPress and bbPress/Buddypress, but I know a little bit about customizing.

My problem is that the navigation tab “Forums” (for the bbPress forum) won’t get the “current_page_item” class while active. Exactly the same happens with the “Members” tab (using Buddypress).

Is there an “easy” way to fix this problem? It’s quite annoying when it works for every tab except the “Forums” and the “Members” tab…

[Saintvittsdance]

It is possible to install bbpress only after disactivation of all in all in one seo plugin. When it switched on there are no permission error. What can i do with this problem?

[Sam Rohn]

hmm, the other plugin i listed earlier seems to have been pulled from the wp plugin directory, authors page for that plugin is here – http://www.vinojcardoza.com/cardoza-wordpress-poll/

this poll plugin is still avail and also works fine w bbpress 2.3.1 via shortcode

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-polls/

note that shortcodes in bbpress may create other probs as jared mentioned above, using plugins like these will allow you to specify allowed shortcodes via whitelist and exclude [bbp_login] etc

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress2-shortcode-whitelist/

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-bbcode/

and this one will allow shortcodes by user role

Hi Jared, and thanks for your reply! Well, the child theme’s is supporting bbPress it seems, and function file read the following from row 73 to 93:

/*———————————————————————————–*/
/* Initialize the Options Framework
/* http://wptheming.com/options-framework-theme/
/*———————————————————————————–*/

if ( !function_exists( ‘optionsframework_init’ ) ) {

define(‘OPTIONS_FRAMEWORK_URL’, PARENT_URL . ‘/admin/’);
define(‘OPTIONS_FRAMEWORK_DIRECTORY’, PARENT_DIR . ‘/admin/’);

require_once (OPTIONS_FRAMEWORK_DIRECTORY . ‘options-framework.php’);

}

if ( class_exists( ‘jigoshop’ ) ) {
require_once (PARENT_DIR . ‘/jigoshop_functions.php’);
}

if ( class_exists( ‘bbPress’ ) ) {
require_once (PARENT_DIR . ‘/bbpress_functions.php’);
}

require_once (PARENT_DIR . ‘/shortcodes.php’);

The strange thing is that this problem appeared after using the childtheme (unmodified) for a while. The first week it rolled just s expected.

Hmm…

[Jared Atchison]

Hmm, strange. The plugin should trigger the download of https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/bbpress.zip which is 2.4 alpha (trunk).

We’ll have a look and see if the version compare isn’t running right. Thanks.

[Jared Atchison]

Unfortunately at this time there is still no poll plugin or capability that exists for bbPress 2.x.

It can certainly be done, however will require some coding knowledge and a little bit of elbow grease.

[Jared Atchison]

It sounds like your child theme is trying to load bbpress_functions.php which doesn’t exist.

Go to your child theme’s functions.php file and comment out line 89 which is portably the culprit.

Unless your theme was specifically designed to support bbPress (which honestly, most themes are not) it shouldn’t be trying to include said file so you can comment it out.

[Jared Atchison]

I think if you update bbPress using the Beta Tester plugin it should pull down trunk, which contains the fix.

Give a try and see.

UPDATE – I was able to edit the topic via the WP admin and get header and other HTML tags to work again.

I suspect it’s because it was an old topic and had a kink that needed to be worked out from the old version’s way of handling HTML.

I’m fairly confident that when creating new topics from here on out they won’t have the issue.

Thanks, Bryan

[Anonymous User]

I never cared for the visual editor anyways, but the HTML form appears to now be stripped down.

Was header tag and other HTML support removed or is there something wrong on my setup?

Thanks, Bryan

[Jared Atchison]

Look into the bbPress shortcodes that are available.

The “Forums” menu in the WP Admin panel has disappeared. I can no longer create Forums, Topics and Replies.

I am running bbPress 2.3.1; BuddyPress 1.7.1; WP 3.5.1; Frisco Theme 1.6.13

[chuckingit]

just a follow up in that i did some additional testing on a live production site and confirmed bug behavior so i just submitted a bug ticket here ->
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2325#ticket

[Trollkjeft]

Hi all,

I have run into a problem when trying to activate the bbPress plugin when running a Skeleton framework’s Childtheme. After activation, I get this error message:

Warning: require_once(/customers/6/4/a/developmentbysvalander.com/httpd.www/themetest/wp-content/themes/skeleton/bbpress_functions.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /customers/6/4/a/developmentbysvalander.com/httpd.www/themetest/wp-content/themes/skeleton_childtheme/functions.php on line 89 Fatal error: require_once(): Failed opening required ‘/customers/6/4/a/developmentbysvalander.com/httpd.www/themetest/wp-content/themes/skeleton/bbpress_functions.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/share/php’) in /customers/6/4/a/developmentbysvalander.com/httpd.www/themetest/wp-content/themes/skeleton_childtheme/functions.php on line 89

I’ve tried this on two different WP installations, and it crash ever time. The second one was a fresh install of both theme and plugin. As I am pretty new with PHP I don’t want to tr anything out that I know work, tht’s why I’m here.

Appreciate any kind of reply!

BR, Chris (Sweden)

[seoulprofessionals]

Hi, I’m a total newbie to bbpress, and I noticed that there are basically no menu options when users come to the forum – I set mine up at http://seoulprofessionals.com/forum – can someone please tell me what to do to get register/login/edit profile/other standard buttons? Also, I installed the avatar plug-in but it doesn’t seem to work.

Thank you very much.
