@pdblizzard Strange that users don’t import correctly if BuddyPress is enabled…

What version of BuddyPress were you using and group or sites idle forums enabled?

I will try to reproduce it if I can…..

Putting this in your theme’s CSS will be a start, but you’ll likely need more CSS tweaks as you go to play nice with your theme.

#bbpress-forums li {
margin: 0;
list-style: none;
background: none;
padding: 0;
}

i tried @jaredatch by putting above code in my theme’s style.css. but still the list style appears..

need more help here please…

[afjsystem]

o sorry @mzaweb, because itu no ‘:’ in the http url sorry.. here is the url http://tanyajawabforex.com/forums/

i managed it full width, but the list style still appears. (thanks to @pimarts)

any more suggest while i try @jaredatch solution ?

Replies are not comments.

`bbp_get_reply_author_id( bbp_get_reply_id() );` will give you what you need.

Let me recommend you to give a good look at the bbPress source code. It’s surprisingly well documented.

[Spudnic]

on an unrelated topic;

i have `bbp_get_reply_id()`, which is getting me the id of the topic reply, and im trying to use it to get the id of the author so that i can print any of the authors meta data, role, name, url, etc.

Does bbPress have a method for getting the author id? Sofar using
`
$comment = get_comment( bbp_get_reply_id() );
$comment_author_id = $comment->user_id;
`

returns me my favorite:

Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in C:\xampp\htdocs\wordpress\wp-content\themes\WoW_Public_Vent_Theme\functions.php on line 275

I’m creating the employees group through Buddypress because I could find no way to create groups without this plugin. I would like to just use bbPress but I don’t see how to create groups with rights to designate forums.

[Stephen Edgar]

@drrxa Can you please create a ticket on Trac https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/

[allg33k]

I tried using a handful of different plugins to change the default avatar. However whenever someone changes thier avatar the “mystery man” icon is still showing in the bbPress profile. What plugin are people using to do custom avatars with bbPress? Is there one that will allow people to choose from a couple different default avatars?

[Stephen Edgar]

@nikitajaye Can you try disabling all your plugins except bbPress and see if you still see 404’s.

[Stephen Edgar]

@kitty-kilian Can you create a new user after disabling all plugins except bbPress thus trying to recreate what happens in what would be a ‘standard user’ in a ‘standard’ bbPress installation without any plugins modifying WP/bbP user roles.

PS and yes, even with Premise switched off it gets you a 404 instead of asking you to login (which I guess it ought to)

You should not be seeing a 404 in this scenario either.

[Stephen Edgar]

@fagiano1973 I can’t reproduce the ‘topic looks like a filename’.

Can you provide some more info that would help us reproduce it and/or try bbPress 2.3 RC1

[Spudnic]

Your the man. Works beautifully.

Surprised this isn’t standard option ive seen alot of questions on it.

If i continue to use bbPress i might make alittle “customization” faq and will def include this.

Thanks again you’ve been supremely helpful.

[stickFinger]

Sorry, but that is really VERY important for my new project, so:

Any insight on this?

[Daniel Dvorkin]

Copy bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/loop-single-reply.php into a bbpress folder in your theme, and in that copy remove from:

` if ( bbp_is_user_keymaster() ) : `

and
` endif; `

I’ve restricted access to /wp-admin using .htaccess file within the /wp-admin directory.
I have a forum with BuddyPress + bbPress installed.
All forum users receive the default subscriber/participant roles upon registration.
Visitors not logged on are free to roam the forum (no posting though).

But logged-in users are asked for the username/password that is set for site admin (for /wp-admin, specifically) immediately after accessing a forum or a topic.

How can I stop WP asking regular forum users for username/password set for /wp-admin?

I can provide url to site, a test user credentials and the content of .htaccess file.
Thank you.

I realize I need to upgrade first to 1.2, when I attempted this I just get a white page.

From this page https://bbpress.org/download/legacy/

I downloaded all three bunches of files, the 1.2 stand alone version of bbpress, I created a folder called backpress in my bb-includes folder and copied in the backpress files, and in the backpress folder I downloaded all the pomo files into a folder I called pomo. I then over wrote all the files on my server with these new files, I made sure I copied up a copy of my custom template files, but still I get the white page. bb-config is intact and fine. Thoughts?

[Spudnic]

I have seen some discussion on this, but in the thread they talk about editing the post.php file, but i dont see how that would effect bbPress, and those topics are from around 3 years ago.

[afjsystem]

hi.. i tried to look around the web to find solution of my trouble.

my forum is http://tanyajawabforex.com/forums/ and all seems to be fine (the installation)
i work on wp 3.5.1 + bp 1.7 rc 1 + bbp 2.3
but little bit annoying about the display of my bbpress forum.

Dot of list style appears and the text wrapped. Maybe because of not a full width.

Any suggestion how to fix it ? @netweb ?

[Spudnic]

So, right now with my un-edited bbPress installation on the forum pages, the authors role is displayed as KeyMaster::1, and so on and so forth depending on the forum role of the author of the topic / reply. Is there a way to change what is displayed there? I would like it to display possibly my wordpress user roles rather than the forum roles, or maybe to display something else once I figure out how to modify the display.

Is this possible?

I don’t really want to edit core bbPress files so i thought i would try to make a plugin that would just change them.

Any and all replies are much appreciated. Thanks.

This is my site / theme and you can see what im referring to on this page:

http://oqueuefansitedev.co.nf/?topic=a-test-topic.

[ninjonxb]

If I understood the instructions correctly, after installing and configuring the forum should be in my menu so people can get to it.

However for some reason it is not http://networkingcounselors.com/forums/

I feel like I am most likely missing something but searching I couldn’t figure out what.

If it makes a difference, I am not using a custom menu. I am just ordering the pages how I want them to display. Doing this because one of my add ons restricts page access based on member level and it does not work with custom menus.

Wordpress: 3.5.1
bbPress: 2.2.4

[Artisantopia]

WordPress V3.5.1
BuddyPress 1.6.5
bbPress 2.2.4

I have just moved my group forums from BuddyPress and added a sitewide forum as per these instructions http://codex.buddypress.org/user/buddypress-site-administration/migrating-from-old-forums-to-bbpress-2/

Everything is working except for 1 thing.

Any user with a forum role of Participant cannot see the opening topic post in any thread. They can see all replies. It doesn’t matter if they created it or another user did, they can’t see the opening post.

If I change their role to Moderator they can see the opening post. But, I don’t want everyone to have moderator rights.

I tried changing the capabilities of Participant (using capability manager plugin), but that didn’t work either.

Can someone please HELP!!!

thank you

I started Bbpress 2.3 rc 1 and BP 1.7 and seems no trouble.
but the forum bbpress display non full width and list style.

until now, search much time on google, only @pimarts forum website that looks great. i wondering how he can get displayed ?

[stevendo]

Well, finally it turned out to me that the wp_posts_fulltext_search table was a custom table that the former dev of the site added (not a WordPress native). 🙂 I’m good to go now.

[stickFinger]

Hi moebi

I came here from a google search regarding subforuns in bbpress.

Even before I install wp+bp+bbpress i´d love to know if you have news on this. For the kind of community i´m planning subforuns is a must 🙂

Also looking at your code, i´ve found in my group.php

` */
public function remove_forum( $forum_args = array() ) {

// Bail if no forum_id was passed
if ( empty( $forum_args[‘forum_id’] ) )
return;
` where public function is line 610 and so i´m a bit lost.

Any help would be appreciate.
Thanks

I am also converting Vbulletin 4.2.0 over to BBPress 2.3-rc1 (not 2.2.3) and hopefully BuddyPress. I had the same problem with users not coming over.

I found that if I disabled BuddyPress, and ran the conversion, my users came over with no problem.

Now that I’m enabling Buddypress and have a few glitches, such as the members page not displaying members, and the registration page not displaying.
