Argh. Now the opposite is true–http://museumnation.com/register/ doesn’t work, and the other does. The change happened when I removed “www” from the WP and site URLs in Settings –> General, as described here: http://ma.tt/2006/06/wordpress-no-www/

Any ideas?

[Flyhead]

Thanks for the response. We have figured that out too. That means a major restructuring of our site.

[lesliemb]

OK. . . The plot thickens. I just checked, and the register link is working at http://museumnation.com/register/ — but not when the URL has a www in front of it. http://www.museumnation.com/register/ redirects to the home page. I haven’t seen this problem on my other WordPress sites–the URL with or without WWW sends users to the same place.

So. . . Is there some kind of setting I should be looking for at my webhost to fix this WWW/no WWW issue?

Thanks again.

I’m considering bbpress for one of my most popular community in Bangladesh. I looked at other forum software but bbpress seemed perfect for me as it runs within WordPress. I’m running bbpress as a plugin. Now, my forum is on Bangla language. So, each time a topic is created, the slug becomes unicode character like this: /ফোরাম-টপিক

As you can see, it’s really ugly-looking as well as bad for sharing links. For my blog, I’ve chosen the permalink as /post-id/{id}. I would like to do the same for bbpress (something like PunBB). How can I do so?

please i need an urgent help, i just installed bbPress on my website locally, if i create forums they will show on the forums page but my main problems are, if i create a new topic in a particular forum the topic will not show up in the forum page, now if i use the link to access the topic and tried to reply the topic, the reply will also not show up,specifically the problem is my forums wont show topics if they contain and my topics wont show replies. however if i change the theme i am using all this problems will get solved….can anybody help me please, i need it to work for my main theme

I’m just confused about future of this great forum platform. As i remember bbpress was plugin of wordpress then it went as standaolone, then plugin again ? Can someone clarify whats happening with bbpres ? Is developmen got faster ?

[gregfielding]

Maybe the language file isn’t what I’m looking for. What I really want to accomplish is renaming “topics” to “questions” and so on.

And, I’ve got multiple websites running below my root. If I change the config file there will be all kinds of trouble.

I’m wondering if I am simply naming the files wrong. The original is bbpress.pot. I named my revisions as bbpress.po and bbpress.mo.

Is this wrong perhaps?

Hi,

I want to permit the inclusion of pictures in new topics and replies, and can’t find an elegant way (or one that works!) to activate this function in BBPress. I want to have a button or something to be easy to post a picture for non-tech people.

Any help ?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Everyone.

I have a simple question but I’ve search for its answer for a day and nothing to solve.

My question is, How can I use “[bbp-single-forum]” and limit its amount of return topics?
I would like to show only 5 recent topics in the page for specific forum. But bbp-single-forum displays all of them.

Or is there any alternative method for my requirement?

Thanks for advance for any help ^^

–Info–
bbPress 2.2.3
WordPress 3.5

@Stephen Edgar

Hmm, I think that’s the best way I can do.
Last night I tried to modify all of capabilities files in bbPress and remove all Sticky option from everywhere. But I ended up with headache 😆 It’s too huge. So I need to back it up to original.

Thanks for you reply Sir 🙂

bbPress does exactly what you’re describing.

It works best if you make each of your classifieds categories as top-level forums.

[Shane Gowland]

bbPress 2.0 is a WordPress plugin, which means you must have WordPress installed to use it.

Dear All Master,

I am fresh to wordpress and really need help urgently. I have download and install the bbPress. Now I have 5 pages of comments, each page got 10 comments.

Now, no matter i post any comment on which page upon these 5 page, it will either go to page 1 or page 5 randomly… Is anyone face this before? any solution for this?

Your help is really highly appreciate.

Thanks

We have been running a standalone forum using bbpress 1.02 and would very much like to upgrade it to the current version, but want it to be a standalone entity without being an add-on. Is that doable? Where can I find instructions as how to do it?

[baldwin]

Dear all,

I have post this at plugin site, however, i want to post it here too since this was an issues and i want to increase the popular of this post so that the master or “sifu” can see and help… thanks
I am fresh to wordpress. I have install bbPress into my wordpress, and i face some serious issues.
By default, after I comment on a topic, it should be refresh the page and show me my comment with “Awaiting Moderation”. However, it’s some time do not refresh and stay in same page, it will link me to the main topic pages.
After I set the topic and reply under “Per Page” section to 1000 per page, this issue do not occur anymore. But problem is reader do not like so many topic or comment in 1 page. It’s seems that bbPress by default do not have a solution in the code to link correctly between the topic pages?
For example, if I set under “Per Page” section, 10 post per reply. When this topic have more than 10 reply, the 11 reply will go to page 2, here the issue will start. anyone post after page 11 will be link to wired page/link or the page will display “Oh bother! No replies were found here!” or “page 404, not found”.
Anyone have a solution on this? Any help is appreciate…
Thanks

[Stephen Edgar]

No, it should just work.

If you have links to your site this really helps us to see exactly what your issue might be.

[mlledwyer]

When I add the shortcode and click to view the page it redirects me to the home page. Is there a setting somewhere that I am missing?

[Stephen Edgar]

This here https://codex.bbpress.org/bbpress-in-your-language/

[gregfielding]

Doesn’t work.

Are there better instructions anywhere for where to upload the file and what to rename it? (if bbpress.po isn’t what it’s supposed to be)

[Stephen Edgar]

It looks like you have fixed this and it is a WordPress issue and not a bbPress issue.

[Stephen Edgar]

Ok… Maybe define en-US in wp-config.php `define (‘WPLANG’, ‘en-US’);`

That might lead to other issues with the rest of your site though not having en-US for WordPress

Another option, although I don’t think this will works anymore is to upload them to /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/languages/

[Stephen Edgar]

There isn’t currently a way to do what you are asking, there probably is a way to disable stickies site wide for everyone (including admin/keymaster) but that is not what you are looking for.

With the default permissions a moderator has I think there are far more dangerous options available to them such as deleting other users topics and replies.

In this regard you are offering any moderators of your forum a certain degree of trust. I would suggest you extend this trust to your moderators in regards to stickies. You can make this part of your ‘moderator’ rules/policy and ask all your moderators abide by this policy.

[Stephen Edgar]

What happens if you name them bbpress-en-US.po & bbpress-en-US.mo
