Hey everyone,

If you haven’t noticed already no one from bbpress responds to support requests , so i would use bbpress at your own risk, cause their just is no official support, granted its a nice addition to any website..

But if users have some real issues or problems, they will not get an answer from anyone here at bbpress, Ive been trying to get some sort of support forever now and no one responds.

good thing they dont charge for using bbpress cause their would be alot of angry people for the lack of support….

Hello, This post is ranking high on google for my site. http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/forum-layout-is-messed-up/ I obviously do not want this to rank at all — let alone above my other articles. Can you either delete the topic or please edit out my site name asap.

Thank you,

I think he meant the changelog at the WP Plugin Directory because that hasn’t been updated yet.

Edit – Sorry, the latter error was because I missed part of my functions.php code to comment out. Editing accordingly.

I’ve been using the following code, originally found in my functions.php to change “Key Master” to “Administrator”:`function my_custom_roles( $role, $user_id, $user_role ) {
if( $role == ‘Key Master’ )
return ‘Administrator’;

return $role;
}

add_filter( ‘bbp_get_user_display_role’, ‘my_custom_roles’, 10, 3 );`

Which returns the error: “Warning: Missing argument 3 for my_custom_roles() in /home/kaenim/public_html/test/wp-content/themes/bsky/functions.php on line 216” above my avatar.

Does anyone know what this “argument 3” is, or how I could modify this code to work in 2.3.1? I’d ask in the original discussion, but it’s several months old and to be honest, I’m simply not aware of what bbPress’ forum policy is regarding reviving old topics; I figured making a new topic would be best.

Dear bbPress community

I’ve got a problem and that I want 1.2 to perform a standalone installation of bbPress on a domain under http://internetblogger.org. I have now uploaded all the installation files and wanted to start the installation.

It gives me an error is displayed
Warning: file_exists () [function.file-exists]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File (/ www / htdocs / bb-config-path.php) is not within the allowed path (s): (/ www/htdocs/w0103e1d / :/ tmp :/ usr / bin :/ :/ www/htdocs/w0103e1d bin :/ usr / local / bin :/ usr / share / php) in / www/htdocs/w0103e1d/bb-load.php on line 140

Why is that? Can anyone help me? In advance I thank.

Fixed my forum (but not solved).
— ALERT MAY DAMAGE YOUR FORUMS —

What I did:
1) deactivate plugin + delete plugin
2) manually installed older version from SVN (https://bbpress.svn.wordpress.org/branches/2.2/)
3) export forum data (from Tools)
4) reset forum plugin
5) update plugin through standard plugin process
6) installed wordpress import plugin
7) imported forum data

i’ve pasted in functions.php the code in the codex page to re-activate the editor and i’ve this error

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE

any help for this?

Thanks!

It will be fine, but you’ll likely want to avoid having private or hidden forums. bbPress performs a postmeta query to exclude topics and replies from private and hidden forums, which will be a pretty bad bottleneck.

Hopefully in bbPress 2.4 or 2.5, I’d like to move the last-active-time meta queries to use post_modified in the posts table. That will remove some of our dependency on JOINing tables, and speed things up for you pretty significantly (at the cost of bastardizing the core post schema and its intentions a bit.)

If you have other specific questions as you go, happy to help and be a resource.

Well, I can’t see that “Forums”.. I can’t see any settings.. nothing.

All I can see is: You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.
Url is: /wp-admin/options-general.php?page=bbpress

[John James Jacoby]

We turned off the visual editor in 2.3.1 because of issues users were having losing formatting when switching between visual and HTML modes.

We put up a snippet with the 2.3.1 release to re-enable it.

Enable Visual Editor

There is no changelog. What’s changed?

There is a changelog, you just need to read the blog post this topic is connected to. 🙂

Or, even better, keep an eye on Trac if you’re concerned about the exact changes.

[Mathieu Scholtes]

I have WordPress 3.4.2 and BBpress 2.3

The problem, I see the meta/header of reply’s just I dont see the message-reply text??

Thanx in advance!

[hlwinkler]

Can you put up the changelog for the update?

[Julien1975]

Unfortunately my bbPress does not allow admin to access settings anymore.
Forum is still publicly visible and it’s possible to post, but settings are “gone”.

I tried to figure out for 2 hours before writing here.
Wordpress debug says: PHP Notice: bbp_setup_current_user was called incorrectly. The current user is being initialized without using $wp->init().

.. is it possible to add features to the Post Editor? I can add custom meta boxes to regular and custom post types in WordPress but is it possible to add them to the bbPress editor

[jason102178]

Are their any moderators that help people on these forums?

[Jared Atchison]

Well for staters it’s used here.

It can scale assuming you have the knowledge (or hire someone) to scale your stack/server as needed.

[Mike Stott]

That’s true, there’s very little threads out there so put the link up on ones relevant 🙂

I’ll keep the link to this one

[Jared Atchison]

This thread is old so I’m closing it.

Premise, Easy Digital Downloads, WooCommerce (and more) all have the ability (through extensions) to create forums specifically and only for customers. There is no shortage of solutions. Plus you’re not limited to PayPal, unlike the solution posted above.

[Mike Stott]

Old thread, but there’s this one: http://epicplugins.com/bbpress-paypal-customer-only-forum/

Instructions to enable the visual editor are here.

As @tbermudas I have also lost the tinyMCE editor on front-end.

I try to go back to version 2.3, but the zip file in WordPress repo for version 2.3 actually contains version 2.3.1. Where can I download version 2.3?

Thanks.

[Anonymous User 5853594]

It’s fixed with the 2.2.4 update of Jetpack.

[Onebird]

Hello,

I’m thinking to use bbPress for one of my websites that currently have around 500000 topics and 30000 registered users. Does anyone installed it on a large website? Did you had performance issues?

I’m wondering if bbPress does scale.

Thanks,
onebird

[tforsman]

Getting the same error. Started from jetpack 2.2.3 beta and now final 2.2.3 is out and still the same issue.

This was an issue before bbpress updated to 2.3.1
So it’s not related to bbpress update, only jetpack changes. But still all other plugins works and only bbpress creates this jetpack warning.
