Hi there,

Thanks in Advance…

I’m facing a problem that the topics are not displaying in forum. I use WordPress + Genesis Framework + bbPress + Genesis bbpress Extend (plugin).. What to do?

[Sami Keijonen]

Ok I recreated this issue with Twenty Twelve theme.

I copied archive.php and renamed it archive-topic.php. I copied content-page.php and rename it content-topic.php. And I get what I want in url domain.com/topics. Here is screenshot, normal archive “page” with topic title/content using bbPress 2.2.4.

Then I update to version 2.3 and this is end result. No loop, no topic content.

I’m on WP 3.6-beta1-23997.

Hi All,

I am working on bbpress on my new site, so it works together with buddypress. But I really hate the way the url structure looks on the forum.

now it’s forums/forum/test and I changed that already to forum/subject

But now when I look at a topic, it’s /topic/post instead of forum/subject/post.

Any way to fix this? I did find some guys talk about a nicer permalinks plugin, but when I click that link I keep getting back to a post about it on this forum…

I got the latest install of wordpress, buddypress bbpress

From the sticky on the upgrade put the following into your CSS

`.bbp-search-form {
display:none !important;
}`

Apologies for the late reply but a severe case of the flu has kept me from thinking 😉

Firstly @clicknathan the bbconverter plugin has not been updated in a long time and is what the actual included converter with bbPress 2.x is based upon and indeed if you keep importing on top of imports you are going to have issues.

@trisham I cannot come up with a specific SQL query for you to delete the duplicates, ideally what you want to do is open phpMyAdmin and find the post ID’s of your imports.

i.e. Find the ‘first’ and ‘last’ post ID from your first import and then find the ‘first’ and ‘last’ post ID from your second import.

`SELECT * FROM ‘wp_posts’ WHERE ‘post_type’ LIKE ‘forum’`
`SELECT * FROM ‘wp_posts’ WHERE ‘post_type’ LIKE ‘topic’`
`SELECT * FROM ‘wp_posts’ WHERE ‘post_type’ LIKE ‘reply’`

The above queries you should see you started to see the post ‘ID’ for the duplicates and I would expect to find them in a numerical order by post ‘ID’ and this starts to build you a range of post ‘ID’ that you will want to delete.

You may find that the range of post ID’s are eg. 2650 – 5299 that are the duplicates that you need to remove and this SQL query highlights those posts `SELECT * FROM ‘wp_posts’ WHERE ID BETWEEN 2650 AND 5299 ` and this query `SELECT * FROM ‘wp_postmeta’ WHERE post_id BETWEEN 2650 AND 5299 ` finds the same posts in `wp_postmeta`

Once you have confirmed the post ID’s for your duplicates with the queries above and you are confident you have the correct ID’s you grab those SQL statements eg. `SELECT * FROM ‘wp_posts’ WHERE ID BETWEEN 2650 AND 5299 ` and `SELECT * FROM ‘wp_postmeta’ WHERE post_id BETWEEN 2650 AND 5299 ` and change the `SELECT * ` to `DELETE` for both of those queries to remove the posts from `wp_posts` & `wp_postmeta` tables.

I hope this makes some kind of sense and if you have any questions please ask away.

[Sami Keijonen]

Yes naturally. But I don’t want to spend your time before I know is it theme issue or not. As you said if it’s working for you, it’s hardly a bbPress bug.

[atburi]

Looking to solve the same issue 🙂

[mchelles]

Just updated to bbpress 2.3 and noticed I now have a search bar at the top of my forum! Is there a way to remove it? Any ideas or suggestions much appreciated!

[carlosdanzos]

Hi, I have a site that have only one wordpress and some standalone bbpress 1.1 (like 7) and I want to upgrade all the bbpress, but now bbpress is a plugin of wordpress. So how can I upgrade all the 7 bbpress ??
Should I install several plugins of bbpress?? or could upgrade or import all the bbpress in only one plugin ?? or what is the best way to upgrade my bbpress??

[markworwood]

Thanks, Ian.

I was just about to revert to bbPress 2.2.4 and then I saw your post.

I have got it running on my website and I will post any serious issues.

Hi!

A week ago I migrated my vbulletin forum to bbpress, and everything seemed to be working fine until yesterday.

I’m using bbpress 2.3, the forum shows all counters, but to see the detail of each subforum it just shows nothing. The funny thing is that if the URL of each subforum I add “?view=all” parameter … it shows all!

i.e

1.-If you type the url of my forum:

http://myforum.com/foros/

All is fine til here …

2.-select a subforum

select the GENERAL subforum

http://myforum.com/foros/foro/general/

and then displays the following:

As I mentioned above, if i put “?view=all” parameter you will view all content

http://myforum.com/foros/foro/general/?view=all

and then displays the following:

I have not changed even one line of plugin code (neither blog)

Any Idea?

Thanks!

[John James Jacoby]

Depends what the boolean function is comparing. Can you open a new topic in the forums here, and be more specific?

[John James Jacoby]

Sigh. No; first I’ve heard of it, and totally lame that’s happening.

Do you mind opening a ticket over at http://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org?

[John James Jacoby]

Looks like it did change, but only for the positive in this regard:

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/4336

[John James Jacoby]

My guess is no; or that the default option value changed in 2.3 (I don’t recall) and there is no option in the DB.

[John James Jacoby]

Did you modify files in the bbPress plugin folder? If so, they get wiped out on every update, which is why the theme compatibility feature exists. (Do a search for it in the codex to learn more.)

[Jared Atchison]

Do you have auto role set in the bbPress settings?

[tibmix]

P.S. I deactivated all plugins except for bbpress. No change.

Hello,

thanks for developing bbPress. The 2.3 is looking and acting really good 🙂

Can you help me: How can I show the tag cloud for a specific single forum only?
I tried in my template file:

wp_tag_cloud( array( 'smallest' => 9, 'largest' => 38, 'number' => 80, 'taxonomy' => bbp_get_topic_tag_tax_id() ) );

Maybe with ‘child_of’? (but what would go here?)

Thanks in advance!

Fee

[Jeff Farthing]

Ever since I have upgraded to 2.3, new users are not assigned the default forum role.

WP Version: 3.5.1 (Multisite)
bbPress Version: 2.3

http://www.jfarthing.com/support/

[tibmix]

@xmasons Thank you.

I added it at the end of functions.php (infocus-buddypress theme). Unfortunately no change.

But now I know that it is something in wp-login.php; although wp-login is not in the /wp-admin folder, when I press the ‘Log in’ button (without even typing something in the username or password fields) immediately is asking for the /wp-admin password set in the .htaccess.

I use the bbPress Login widget on the forum’s left sidebar.

edit: I tried to remove all the widgets, unsuccessfully (because I noticed the “Lost Password” link refers to /wp-admin).

[Stephen Edgar]

@ianhaycox Many thanks for this Ian 🙂

[ianhaycox]

Hi,

There is a development version at https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/bbpressmoderation.zip with a fix for the hidden topics/replies.

Unzip the download and replace /wp-content/plugins/bbpressmoderation

I’ve only done limited testing as I’m not a bbPress user anymore – so feedback appreciated on the changes.

Thank to @netweb for the pointer – I’ve followed JJJ advice to use a posts_where filter to add the pending status so moderated topics and replies are included in the query.

It’s a real ugly fix (see the source comments for details), but hopefully it should get you through until moderation makes it into bbPress for real.

Ian.

[lucop1]

I think that this is one of the biggest feature that bbpress doesn’t have.

How can I moderate a Forum with thousands of posts without having the support of the users that report posts to the moderators?

any ideas?

Thanks Ian, we really appreciate the help!
