Hello all,

I had since yesterday looking for this i searched many website incl your support forum but the most of the topic are 3+ year old.

So please can you help me with this, how to remove the subforums on the homepage of the bbpress last plugin?

Hi everyone,

Hope someone can help me out with this, I’ve been searching around for several days and I can’t seem to find a solution.

I’m using bbpress (obviously) on my 3.5.1 WP install. I have code in a fixed header that allows my users to login to the website. Here’s the code I have in my header.php

display_name.’ | ‘, wp_loginout(); } else { ?>
or <a href="/wp-login.php?action=register”>Join

Basically this generates Login | Join when the user is not logged in and username | logout when they are logged in.

My question is this, when a user is logged in I’d like to have the username link directly to their bbpress profile. For the life of me I can’t find any info on how I would do this.

Does anyone have any info or could point me in the right direction so I can could get this done? Maybe it’s not even possible?

Thanks to anyone who can help.

Cheers.

I’m using the Simple:Press to bbPress importer that comes with the latest version of bbPress. I am currently running the most recent version of WordPress and have Simple:Press 5.1.4.

The topic/replies imported perfectly, with exception to one bit. The forum thinks all the posts it imported were created by user 1, the main site Admin.

I have run “Recount topics for each user” and “Recount replies for each user” but they didn’t appear to fix it (and I’m guessing they aren’t meant for this purpose, based on their labeling)

I was wondering if anyone else was having similar issues.

yes cavenewt, check out my post here: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/upgrade-bbpress-1-0-2-to-2-1-2/page/2/#post-127780

After a few failed attempts, I was able to successfully do the conversion from bbpress 1.02 standalone version to the latest plugin version (2.2.4). Doing this requires a few steps and I might do a blog post about this later but for now:

1. You need to update the standalone version to 1.2. I tried importing without doing this and some data, like parent forums didn’t get converted so I ended up with a bunch of forums with no parent (and if you have a big forum, you don’t want that).

To update you need to download version 1.2 from https://bbpress.org/download/legacy/ and then download the backpress and pomo files that you see below version 1.2. You then need to create a folder called “backpress” in the “bb-includes” folder and dump in all files that come in the backpress-1.2-bbpress includes folder.

So you’ll have: bbpress>bb-includes>backpress>class.bp-log.php and so on…

Then download the pomo files and create a folder called “pomo” inside the “backpress” folder. Dump in the files you downloaded in there.

So you’ll have: bbpress>bb-includes>backpress>pomo>entry.php and so on…

Now you can update your standalone version to 1.2 as you did in the past. Be careful not to delete your bb-config.php and your old templates (if you had custom templates). Make sure you log in to your admin panel so the database gets updated.

2. Now you are ready to import using the import tool in wordpress. Download and install latest bbpress plugin version, then go to Tools>Forums>Import Forums and follow the instructions to import all your information (don’t forget to put “bb_” as your table prefix).

Hope this helps

A common problem (I think) when people post on forums is that they forget to write a topic title for their thread. When this happens on my bbpress-forum an error emssage shows up and the text in the main post window disappears. Quite frustrating, and I am wondering if there is any way to resolve this?

[Stephen Edgar]

I am quite sure all of this hase been fixed in the upcoming bbPress 2.3

You can download the beta from here and test it to make sure 🙂

bbPress 2.3 Beta 2

[Stephen Edgar]

With what you patched via #1835.diff that is the same as what was committed to /trunk in r4533 and is included in the upcoming bbPress 2.3.

[John James Jacoby]

Neat!

[iamnotadoll]

I modified the code in includes/common/template-tags.php as outlined on this page and (for now) it seems to have fixed the issue.

`
function bbp_redirect_to_field( $redirect_to = ” ) {

// Rejig the $redirect_to
//if ( !isset( $_SERVER[‘REDIRECT_URL’] ) || ( !$redirect_to == home_url( $_SERVER[‘REDIRECT_URL’] ) ) )
// $redirect_to = wp_get_referer();

// Make sure we are directing somewhere
if ( empty( $redirect_to ) )
$redirect_to = home_url( isset( $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’] ) ? $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’] : wp_get_referer() );

// Remove loggedout query arg if it’s there
$redirect_to = (string) esc_attr( remove_query_arg( ‘loggedout’, $redirect_to ) );
$redirect_field = ”;

echo apply_filters( ‘bbp_redirect_to_field’, $redirect_field, $redirect_to );
}
`

Initially it wasn’t working because I didn’t remove the //Rejig the redirect part (can’t believe I didn’t see it the first time).

Now my question is, where (and how) would I put this modified function to stop any future updates from overwriting it?

I tried using add_filter(‘bbp_redirect_to_field’) in my bbpress-functions file but it makes the site really slow. Is there a better way to do it?

`
add_filter(‘bbp_redirect_to_field’, ‘bbp_redirect_to_field_filter’);

/**
* Filter to fix the reply redirects
**/
function bbp_redirect_to_field_filter( $redirect_to = ” ) {

// Make sure we are directing somewhere
if ( empty( $redirect_to ) )
$redirect_to = home_url( isset( $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’] ) ? $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’] : wp_get_referer() );

// Remove loggedout query arg if it’s there
$redirect_to = (string) esc_attr( remove_query_arg( ‘loggedout’, $redirect_to ) );
$redirect_field = ”;

echo apply_filters( ‘bbp_redirect_to_field’, $redirect_field, $redirect_to );
}

I am using WordPress and bbPress in Brazilian Portuguese and most of the words in bbPress are correctly translated. Unfortunately, the word “forum” at the top of each bbPress page (both the title and the path) are still in English. How would I go about changing this title to be in Portuguese?

If you want to see what I mean: http://www.cbblogers.com/forums/

Thanks

Its a custom 404 page offered by your web host, it has nothing to do with bbPress and/or WordPress. There should be an option in your hosting control panel to add/edit your own custom error page.

[grundyoso]

Figured this issue out. Seems the Propulsion theme I was using was only compatible with bbPress 2.1.2 and I had installed 2.2. Once I dropped in the right version things started working right away. I hope this helps some else.

[mechellelopez]

I have an existing forum that is running off of a stand-alone bbPress 1.-alpha-2855. I need to integrate it into WordPress so that I can update to bbPress’ lates version. Could anyone help me with a step by step way to do that?

[Ryuske]

I am using WordPress 3.5 & bbPress version 2.2.4. I cannot figure out for the life of me where the 404 page is actually being pulled from. I need to edit the structure of that page a little but can’t find it :/

This is the page I am talking about: http://nviaai.com/forums/forum/members/

I looked at 404.php but that was significantly different, so I’m pretty sure that isn’t it >.< Thanks for your time!

[Gabriel Luethje]

I’m still having trouble with this one. I am using bbPress v2.2.4 with Twenty Twelve (tried it with Twenty Eleven also), and I am having tags stripped out. If I do ol/ul they return as a p tag with br tags separating the line.

Here’s a screenshot of my toolbar for forum posting: http://d.pr/i/qjbM. This is with “Use the fancy WordPress editor to create and edit topics and replies” checked in Forums settings.

If I uncheck that option, I get no toolbar at all: http://d.pr/i/SW05

How can I get a basic formatting toolbar working correctly?

[livninctry]

I searched for this topic and am surprised to not find it. This is a popular digest plugin and was wondering if I could get it to include new topics and responses to topics in the digest emails?

[xmasons]

Let’s try this again…

Open up the following PHP document in the bbPress plugin, found at –

bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/user-profile.php

Using the AIM field as an example, add the following –

`
`

Now you probably shouldn’t alter these files, as the next time bbPress is updated, the update will overwrite this. You’ll need to make a copy of the file under your theme directory. So it should look like this –

yourTheme/bbpress/user-profile.php

Does anyone know how I can add or where I can find a plugin to add BBpress Live Preview or Post Preview for Replies and/or Topics? Almost any other forum software automatically has post preview buttons.. not sure why BBpress doesn’t have this integrated.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

[Rhys Wynne]

I’m using bbPress in conjunction with the Members plugin and have a “Private” forum, that only users of a certain level can access (we call it “Employees”).

It works fine, great, thanks 🙂

However, if a non “Employee” logged in user has the direct link to a post (or clicks on the “Freshness: {time}” in the post list, then they can see the topic directly.

How can I hide this? Ideally I want to do it plugin level, rather than changing the theme.

[xmasons]

This is a plugin request and I wouldn’t assume that it be rolled into bbPress proper.

A highly prized feature of allowing users to subscribe to sub-forums (via their account page) and be sent notifications (excerpts or full) of a new topic or reply. There are several plugins that capture parts of this, some quite close, but none that have the full functionality.

bbPress Notify
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-notify/
Works great at sending out customized emails at a user role level. But it’s an all or nothing solution and does not let the user pick the subforums they’re interested in.

bbPress Digest
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-digest/
Does a great job on letting the user select the sub-forums (from the user’s account) that they’d like to receive notifications from. Sadly, it’s only a weekly or daily digest.

Marrying those two plugins would produce a wonderful hybrid and would take some doing. I’m a little surprised that this feature has not been created yet, as it is used in several other forum software ecosystems.

Hi!

I’ve done everything in the installation guide (http://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-in-your-language/) to traduce it in french.

But I think I am missing something here, do I have to activate something, do I have to use codestyling localization to complete the traduction?

Is just uploading the files and having my WP dashboard in the same language should get everything translated^

Thanks
