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!

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??

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!

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!

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

@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).

@ianhaycox Many thanks for this Ian 🙂

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.

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?

@ianhaycox

Thanks Ian, we really appreciate the help!

[Stephen Edgar]

@ianhaycox Excellent news, glad you are now on the case 🙂

These two comments should help get you going:

Glad to hear that!

Hi All,

I am the bbPressModeration plugin author. I’ve only just found out about this today, so my apologies for the problems you are having.

Unfortunately neither this forum or the WordPress forum notified me of the new posts.

I’ll try and see what the problem is today – but if anyone suffering the problem can provide any extra info it would help – e.g. error messages, log messages in Apache etc.

Ian.

[samholman]

Plugins shouldn’t be calling any user related functions until after the user is actually loaded. The soonest place you can do this is on the ‘init’ action; doing it sooner is _doing_it_wrong() and will cause other hidden issues in your installation later. bbPress provides that debug notice to let you know your approach was incorrect.

Thanks for that. But why would calling a boolean function cause any “hidden issues”? That current behaviour would strike me as very definitely `_doing_it_wrong()`. It should return true/false without impacting anything else.

[pazzaglia]

It doesn’t work. I followed the instructions above, along with the theme.

1. I downloaded form-reply.php
2. I made my changes to it
3. I uploaded it to /wp-content/themes/proxima-child/bbpress/
4. Nothing changed on the website.

I would love to customize these messages. Even more to do it from a central location! I noticed that there are about 15 form files.

Ciao,

Hi !
I just install a new bbPress (last version) on a custom wordpress theme.

It works fine, except the index page (the page where all the forum are listed).
I just got an empty wordpress post.
Here is an image (the “mysite/forums” page):

However, when i try to display a forum from the back office. It works fine. So i just have a problem with the index…
The the “mysite/forums/forum/forum-1-2/” page

I know the bug came from the theme, because it works fine on other theme, but i don’t know how can i solve it 🙂

Thanks, and sorry my bad english !

Hello! I’m using the Login Widget in my sidebar here:
http://brandschool.brandtwist.com/login/

And whenever I click “Login” it takes me back to the homepage.
Ideally it would:

1. Leave me on the existing page.
or
2. Take me to a particular page that’s not the homepage.

I’m using WordPress 3.4.2 and BBPress 2.2.4.

Thanks for your help!
