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/

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

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:

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

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

Great theme Lynq! This is exactly what I needed.

I have a little problem though, whenever I hover over my subforums everything disappears. My forum is at http://shadowedmare.com/forums

I’m just getting started with BuddyPress and bbPress and wanted to confirm that importing a phpBB database will not change the original database.  Thanks!

[Roman]

Unfortunately looks like this is impossible in the default version.
I need this too but I have not found any decision. And seems that the developers do not make any steps in this direction, so that hardly expect it soon. Use built-in Buddypress group forums are now the only solution.
I will be very happy to know that I was wrong!)

I am trying to add the username underneath a person’s avatar, like in these forums (circled in the pic above). I know where to add the code in loop-single-reply.php and I have tried looking in the beta release of bbPress 2.3 in case it was included there, but I am not having any luck.

Would anyone know what code I would need to insert to bring up the username?

[brian47374]

Lynq,

Thanks for replying. However, could you please explain what you are saying just a little bit more? Are you talking about creating the course/page in WP? And where/how would I pick them with CSS?

[Sambora5150]

Hello Foks

@goodintoday or somebody else can tell me exactly the code and where to apply it to show the  @username with the creator of the post

[Stephen Edgar]

This is already fixed in 2.3 see https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2138

[Lynq]

There is the ‘bbp_new_reply’ action, this could work for you.

[Lynq]

You could just create a topic and write your course/page out in the topic rather than a page. This way you can pick out the course/page with CSS and style it the same as a standard page, then underneath there would be the discussion forum.

Good luck!

[brian47374]

I am running WP 3.5.1 and bbPress 2.2.4. I want to be able to integrate WP w/ BP “courses” or pages. What I am trying to do is to have a course/page that has a discussion forum. How can I go about linking the two together? If there is documentation on this and I missed it, please let me know. Or, if I need another discussion forum or plugin to accomplish my goal.

Thanks in advance!

Hi!

I’ve make a plugin to work in wordpress comments form for guest but it don’t work with bbpress.

It use this hook:

add_filter(‘pre_comment_on_post’, ‘wp_stopforumspam_check_query’);

How i can make compatible also with bbpress? 😐

[boddhi]

The way the post type are setup make them not ready for translations array in array are the main problem.

For info bbpress v 2.2.4, translation files in my wp-content/languages/bbpress/bbpress-fr_FR.mo
All the others strings are getting translated 😉

Hi there, Am trying to add a captcha plugin for my forum registration. The bbpress forum has been installed as a plugin in my wordpress site.

The problem I’m getting is where to add the captcha plugin? I can only find it if it’s installed in the main wordpress plugin directory, however I then can’t get to settings to enter the keys etc and bbpress doesn’t seem to see its there.

any advice? Thanks in advance

[Garindan]

Its now in ‘wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/common/template-tags.php’ on line 2026. bbPress of course not buddypress 🙂

Hi,

Where can i find freelancers who are offering paid work on bbpress.

I need a specific alteration making and would happily pay for a trustworthy person to implement it.

Im looking for a way to make a topic or forum only accessible to one user plus admin.

I have tried various plugins but none seem to offer this.

I need something like the following:

Admin creates topic called “john private” and “paul private

Admin logs in and can see and post in “john private” along with “paul private”

John logs in and can see and post in “john private” he cannot see “paul private”

Paul logs in and can see and post his private area but cannot see or post in johns.

Would be better if each user has a topic or forum area created for them automatically on sign up that only them and admin can see without admin having to manually create each one.

I will need a large amount of these private areas for customers like John and Paul.

Question is, where can i find someone to do this?

Thanks.

[maggieymae]

Yep Good point- I did do the import with no plugins installed and that’s why I reported it was a success…then I looked at it later and the topics were gone. After I posted here I realized I went a little crazy adding plugins so I disabled them all and activated them until the problem showed up again. Thanks again for offering a way to grab the posts from vbulletin and thanks for the bbpress wordpress plugin.

[golfer300]

Is it possible to change the required information in the bbPress short code for registration.
Also, is it possible to make the registration for my site and the forum one and the same.
Any help is much appreciated.
