Dear bbPress Community!

Thank you for your effort which helped to the Hungarian WordPress Community’s forum on bbPress version to be created.

We hope to assure the suitable support for the Hungarian Community not only to WordPress and BuddyPress but bbPress as well.

Happy New Year to you!

New forum: http://kozosseg.wphu.org/forumok

Best regards,

Hy everyone,

first of all, thank you guys for this awesome forum plugin 🙂 I’ve used it for about few months now, and I hadn’t any problems with it. I use it for my support/forum page on my site.

Here is what I’ve done: I’ve tried to make my own community site, found out about the buddypress plugin, installed it and voila 🙂 it works.

Now here is the thing, is it possible to integrate the same structure of my old existing forum (with all the topics, replies, attachments) into the one group that I created recently ??

I wont it to be, something like – one group has it’s own forum, and if it’s a closed membership group, than you don’t have access to the forum at all.

I have a huge list of topics, and posts, attachments that I would like to integrate into one group, and for the all other groups, I would like to have the same possibility for them too.

Is something like that possible ?? is there a plugin to do this, or an addon for the bbpress/buddypress plugin, maybe ?

I’m sorry if I’ve made a mistake for posting this thread here.

Thanks in advance for any kind of help.

Regards

When I updated to the latest plugin version today it triggered a fatal error. We were updating because the forums had stopped showing any new posts since Dec. 16 and thought maybe an updated plugin might help. We are still using WordPress version 3.4.2 due to being in the middle of changing servers. My friend has requested that we go back to the previous plugin since at least the forums were showing up, albeit frozen, while she finds a bbPress expert. Problem is, I never had a copy of the bbPress plugin—I downloaded it from the WordPress Plugin site, which now shows only the most recent version. Can anyone tell me where I could find an earlier version of the plugin to download? Also, any thoughts where we can find someone to help us with our ongoing bbPress issues? Thanks very much.

Here is the error, which unfortunately is gibberish to me:
Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
Warning: require(/home/friendbl/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/topics/functions.php) [function.require]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in/home/friendbl/public_html/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbpress.php on line 303

Hi, I tried to install your them but it doesn’t change a thing.
I have put the files in the right folder : wordpress/wp-content/themes/bbPress-starter-theme-epicwebs-master

But nothing changes after that and in the themes windows it says that the theme is corrupted because it lacks the style.css file.

[attendstar]

I uploaded a new theme as per the instructions. Now how do I activate it?

I set my user role to Keymaster but I do not see the Admin section, I have version 2.2.3 and I installed bbpress as a plugin (do not have Buddy Press).

Elsewhere I have read that there is an Admin link that appears, but I do not have one or do not know where to look. I have searched the forums, searched Google and it seems its a common issue.

Thank you

Hi,

I am trying to install bbpress but after activating it I am getting this error:

Fatal error: Call to undefined function user_can() in /home/**/**/**/**/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/includes/topics/capabilities.php on line 226

I checked and I have all the requirements. I also tried to search in here before creating this topic but couldn’t find the answer.

Any ideas?

[nekstrebor]

I am using bbPress only…

under a users profile, I can see a count of the number of topics and replies but it doesn’t list them. The only way I can see them listed is if I am logged in as admin.

Please help 🙂

I’ll also point you to to trac and @jjj’s comment https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2089#comment:6

I also had this problem on the old bbpress 1 (stand alone). I thought it was because it wasn’t the latest version. After 40-some large posts, it hangs up and won’t allow me to post anymore.

But last night I set up the lastest with my current forum. I’ve tried two different browsers at two different locations/IP addresses and computers. I get the same thing.

[aerokat]

No, I didn’t use the import function, because I wasn’t able to get it to work. I have been manually posting past posts into this bbpress. But it has stopped letting me post. Like…when I make a new entry in the topic and hit post, the entry comes up blank. Like it has deleted all my text.

[Stephen Edgar]

I am not exactly sure what you are saying here!

Did you use the bbPress Import Tool to import your old phpBB forum into bbPress?

The docs have the details here https://codex.bbpress.org/bbp_show_lead_topic/

I am so frustrated with bbPress. I wanted to be rid of my phpbb forum…. when I found that wordpress had its own sort forum, I was excited. I loaded it, got it all set up…. I made several posts… over 70 posts for a matter of fact…now I am having a problem.

I am reposting a lot of old logs from the previous phpbb forum onto the bbpress. And I have hit a block to where bbpress will no longer make new posts. I imagine that this is a problem on my mysql/database side…. but I can’t find any info on it and don’t know how to figure it out….as I am still learning databases and such.

I still have over a years worth of logs to load….. but yet it seems as though bbpress or wordpress has hit is limit of what I can post?

Does anyone know what I can do? Is there a setting on wordpress, bbpress or mysql database that can be make to allow me to continue? Or should I just stay with the old phpBB forum that I already have and leave bbpress alone?

I am using bbpress 2.2.3 and wordpress 3.5

[allenmccabe]

I have s2Member running with bbPress 2.2.3 and I am getting the following error when accessing the Users page within the admin:
`Fatal error: Unknown: Cannot use output buffering in output buffering display handlers in Unknown on line 0`

Version 2.2.2 does not do this on the development server (also running with s2Member).
Wordpress version 3.4

Sweet! Thanks!

Excellent, many thanks. And by the way, I hope you agree that part of the search should be opt-out, not -in. Only the old-timers around here are gonna want to dig further back into the archives.

[John James Jacoby]

@webheadllc – That’s a bit of an oversight on my part. The ‘manage_options’ capability was an easy check originally, and you’re right that Key Masters should be able to create forums. I’ll make sure it’s fixed in 2.3.

Update: Fixed in trunk.

[livninctry]

Quick update – (this might help other users) As part of the troubleshooting I removed all bbpress plugins and supporting plugins from Suffusion and reinstalled and now the tinymce are present. Not sure what changes it made, but it appears to be working now.

[John James Jacoby]

Excluding posts from search before a certain date seems like a good idea. I’ll get it done this week.

[John James Jacoby]

Likely unknown issues surfacing, or bbPress becoming more complex over time and W3TC interoperability not being specifically tested.

[mostafaqanbari]

i installed new bbpress2.2.3 and then “user Role Editor” plugin for defining user roles for my forum users. but when i use bbp_topic_admin_links(); my users cant see any of admin buttons! this means that they cant close their topics too! i checked “user role plugin” 100times and nothing wrong with it. i manually create buttons for editing and deleting a topic but i cant find a way to close a topic! what can i do with bbp_topic_admin_links(); to show necessary buttons to my users?

wordpress 3.5

bbpress 2.2.3
Hi, i installed bbpress after i installed buddy press. During the bbpress installation process it said if i wanted a new page created for forums. I clicked “create new page.” After the installation i went to my website and found no tab. I checked to see if the page was created at all and it was. my website is here.

[Erlend]

@JJJ I’m a bit confused. I thought you had bbPress working well with both W3TC and WPSC early on [1]. Did some things change or is is simply a matter of unknown issues eventually surfacing?

@JohnConners any news? I know a lot of people who’d love to know more about any new findings you might have made.

@moderators please get this spammer out of here.

[Erlend]

Excluding older threads in the search would definitely be a very acceptable compromise.
