Indeed there has been some changes but this truly is way above my limited knowledge of PHP 😉

Hopefully some of these topics can help you out:

Nonce check fail using reverse proxy

Gettting error while creating new topics.

Is it possible to utilize Buddypress in bbPress so you can separate the forums into groups. For example,

Main Forums
Google
Microsoft
Apple

Other Forums
Yahoo
Bing

Hey everyone,

I’ve been trying to figure this out for quite some time, but it seems that I still need your help.

This error appears on creating new topics on every version of bbPress after 2.0.3. As this seems to be a nonce related issue, would you be so kind to tell me if there were any major changes in the nonce handling for versions after 2.0.3? I’m stuck with this version and I’d like to benefit from all the nice features these latest versions came with.

Please let me know what kind of details you need in order to help me sort this out. Thanks a lot!

Hi!

I use “woosidebars” plugin to show different sidebars based on various conditions. It works great with bbpress, except for user profile pages.
Basically, I cannot find a valid condition (i.e. page template, custom post type etc.) for pages with under /users/ directory.
Obiuvsly, I cannot choose urls as a condition from Woosidebars options.

Can you provide help with that? Is there a way to declare a custom post type for user profile pages?

Thank you,
marco

Hi all,

New install: WordPress 3.5.1 MU joint Network with x7 Mapped domains

New install: Buddypress 1.6.4 Running all sites on Dynamix WP/BP theme

New install: BBPress 2.2.4 With Network & Group forums configured.

Buddypress has been installed ‘without’ the discussion forums tab enabled.

<code>define( ‘BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG’, true );</code> Is located in wp-config.

Other plugins installed all network enabled:  WP SEO (Yoast), WPMU Domain Mapping, Ultimate coming soon page & Join my multisite.

Followed all Buddypress and BBPress latest instructions to the letter!

I can create new forums, and group forums with no problems. All forums and groups are traceable throughout all MU sites with no problems and I have used bp-custom-php with;

<code><?php

/* This fixes the MULTIBLOG avatar problem */

function nfm_bp_avtar_upload_path_correct($path){

if ( bp_core_is_multisite() ){

//   $path = ABSPATH . get_blog_option( BP_ROOT_BLOG, ‘upload_path’ );

$path = ABSPATH . ‘wp-content/uploads/’;

}

return $path;

}

add_filter(‘bp_core_avatar_upload_path’, ‘nfm_bp_avtar_upload_path_correct’, 1);

 

function nfm_bp_avatar_upload_url_correct($url){

if ( bp_core_is_multisite() ){

$url = get_blog_option( BP_ROOT_BLOG, ‘siteurl’ ) . “/wp-content/uploads”;

}

return $url;

}

add_filter(‘bp_core_avatar_url’, ‘nfm_bp_avatar_upload_url_correct’, 1);

?></code>

To carry user and group avatars throughout all networks.

Problem being, once a forum post is created I’ as keymaster cannot Edit, Close, Stick, Merge Trash or Spam “Any” forum posts. The page just refreshes without any actions taking place.

I have read two other posts relating to this similar/same issue, one from over a year ago, and one from as little as two weeks ago, both without solution, one without any replies.

Further to the above, I have noted that BBPress is not sending emails out on replies to forum posts with the Notify me of follow-up replies via email tab checked.

I sincerely hope someone may be able to help shed some light on this issue as it is really going to render my project useless if I can’t manage to resolve it.

I’m happy to offer a bbpress admin, administrative access to my site if they feel they may be able to assist in some way.

Here’s hoping .. !

Regards,

Sped

@pjtna and @sambora5150 : Lucky, you guys found me, (or viceversa :))

I was looking to do exactly that. So here it is.

The code should go in bbpress template file loop-single-reply.php, below the PHP code line that contains. The file is located in plugins > bbpress > templates > default > bbpress folder.

`do_action( ‘bbp_theme_before_reply_author_admin_details’ )`
Th actual code should be,
`
$user = get_userdata( bbp_get_reply_author_id() );
if ( !empty( $user->user_nicename ) ) {
$user_nicename = $user->user_nicename;
echo “@”.$user_nicename;
}
`

But you should never edit that file, as the changes will be lost when you upgrade bbpress plugin.

So, copy the file and put it in your theme within a folder ‘bbpress’ (you will have to create that folder).

You will also need to add the following line to your theme’s function.php

add_theme_support(‘bbpress’);

OR untested but simple method, add all of the following to the function.php of your theme.

`function append_mention(){
$user = get_userdata( bbp_get_reply_author_id() );
if ( !empty( $user->user_nicename ) ) {
$user_nicename = $user->user_nicename;
echo “@”.$user_nicename;
}
}

add_action(bbp_theme_before_reply_author_admin_details, append_mention);`

Hi, I have the same problem, but additionally, my buddypress does not install the new site. I just see an empty directory there, no wp-powered site.

I would be glad to get a hint from you! Thanks in advance!

@sadr & @destroflyer

I came across little bug/logical inconsistency with the direct quote plugin.

When used along with “bbPress threaded replies” plugin, the quoted reply created responds to the main (as top level) as opposed to the one that has been quoted, which is wrong.

That is, currently it’s like this.
| – – –
– | – –
– – | – if I quote this,
| – – – this is the quoted reply

But it should be this

| – – –
– | – –
– – | – if I quote this,
– – – | this should be the quoted reply

I guess I explained it well enough, I am at loss of words here 🙂

Links to any guidance available online for

1.7 beta and bbPress 2.2.4

Set Up Group Forums Only

very much welcomed

[Bryan Eggers]

I imported a phpBB database with about 2500 users and over 100,000 posts (it took about 90 minutes).  What I noticed is that there were two username created for each phpBB member, for example Chewy and imported_Chewy.  I thought about just deleting all the “imported_” names until I realized that all the references on the board are to those names and not the original names. What to do?

I also forgot to mention that the email associated with the account also has the imported_ prefix.

This is using the Buddypress 1.7 beta and BBpress 2.2.4. Thanks!

Hi, i think this is the code  i have it from this other topic:

How to display @username in bbPress?

 

i don´t know where tu place it… can anyone help me?

user = get_userdata( $user_id );
if ( !empty( $user->user_nicename ) ) {
    $user_nicename = $user->user_nicename;
}

I’ve spent lots and lots of time trying to make this work in Swedish. Finally I took @dykarna files and used them and then it worked. So my conlcusion is that there was something wrong with my .po & .mo files…

Those files i downloaded from https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/2.2.x but for some reason could not make it work.

The solution proposals for this problem are scattered in different parts of this forum and I think not properly adressed by bbpress for the new versions as far as I see it.

https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-in-your-language/ is of course explaining the way to do it but does not adress the possible .mo and .po problems, I think. I agree to what @dykarna have said:

After having read this thread and I sit with the same problem. Then it would probably be appropriate to maybe get to a function so you can thru the admin panel choose which language you wish. Yes, and that all language files included with the package when installing bbPress.

Or one might even in the admin panel to add a “upload” of language files so they end up where they should and is automatically activated .. yes I’ve seen it in Joomla but there is something quite different but the principle

However, i’m very pleased that it works for me now. I just need to find the non-translated parts now…

Most of what is mentioned above can now be found in the docs

Ironically, the use I plan to make for bbPress is to create a model for “Living Documentation” as described in the book “Specification by Example” for various types of software projects.

I am new to the Open Software model after having spent 30 odd years working within the “private” model. I see clear sustainability problems if users behave like typical users: demanding more and more from people who are being paid a fraction they are in the private model. Something has got to give. The proliferation of modules reflects current design methods of keeping each one fairly small/simple. The problem with that approach is that it indeed requires key overview docs including use of things like stepwise refinement and UML docs in order to obtain a cohesive grasp of the whole. As in baseball, “you can’t tell the players without a program!”

wordpress at least has several “apparently good” books to explain the development paradigm. bbPress users are not so lucky.

It is a very big job to create this very useful software and we should be more appreciative to those who have accepted this challenge – consider how long it would take any of us to write the volume of php code or even do the design work!

I think Mr. Jacoby is correct – if everyone who ran down a problem bothered to leave a little “map” or narrative of his journey we might get a better picture of how this thing works. The only problem I see with that is too many requirements: 1) user has to be able to ferret out the problem; 2) user has to be correct; 3) user has to be able to write carefully. There may be others requirements as well.

Ideally, we need better docs that reduce the abstractions presented to us in the form of raw code. It seems to me that the community needs to decide that bug fixes and new features should wait until the overall design can be made clear to nearly all of us.

Hi Stephen, I just figured it out. There was a conflict with my there’s navigation CSS. Thanks for responding.

[Stephen Edgar]

For the first part of your question this is what bbPress does for ‘forum’ parents and should work fine, maybe some more tips from here will help.

The second part regarding ‘section titles’ this is planned for a future release but for now you can use @lynq’s solution here.

Lastly you would have to customize the \templates\default\bbpress\form-user-register.php template: https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/

[jimabshire]

The links above are all giving Error 404 – Destination Not Found

If this is temporary, then please delete this post after the problem is corrected. Thank you

You could also find some inspiration (or even use) this plugin

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-courseware/

[Stephen Edgar]

Its all good, you will be able to update to 2.3 fine.

Here’s some docs on how to get up and running with modified templates:
https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/

And of course you could just start using the 2.3 beta now

bbPress 2.3 Beta 2

@Phill I am not seeing that using Chrome 24

Hi all,

i’d like to use bbPress but I get a ton of errors like the following

Warning: mb_stripos() [function.mb-stripos]: Empty delimiter in ../wp-includes/functions.php on line 658

I couldn’t find anything on it and have no clue how to fix it.
Any Help appreciated.

The server is running php 5.3

[Darren1981]

Hey all,

I am looking to launch my project very shortly: REMOVED URL currently i am only working on my localhost but am looking to start working / testing on a live server.

Currently i am using the latest stable release.. but am considering installing the latest beta version.. I am looking to do several customizations to my bbpress installation so basically i was wondering if i do install the latest beta version and begin working / modifying templates etc.. will i be able to upgrade to bbPress 2.3 easily enough once it is released ?

Thanks in advance for any assistance on this topic.

Regards, Darren

[Darren1981]

Mate Awesome JOB !!!

By far the best BBpress install / modifications ive seen to date.

I am currently developing my project REMOVED URL and my forums section will certainly be influenced by the work you have done on your site.. If by any chance you would like help me out with a few mods i would really appreciate it.. I am mainly looking to modify the users profile box / section like what you have done.

Regards, Darren
