OK, in the absence of any input, I’ve been firebug fishing for a way of selectively removing all the bullets from bbpress, but not from my main theme. To the the next guy or girl who searches for a resolution to this, I hope this works for you too – it has finally brought me success.

#bbpress-forums ul > li:before
{
content: none;
}

I’ve tried a few other odds and ends to sort this out, but it seems like the problem is simply that reply edits aren’t saving revisions to the posts DB. I don’t use any plugins that could be causing this disconnect. Is it possible this is simply something that is happening within bbPress core? Probably not, because I didn’t see any other reports of this issue, but maybe nobody has noticed?

Can someone else using WP 3.5 and BBP 2.2.3 confirm that reply revision logging is working on their install?

so if:

Admin = Keymaster
Editor = Participant
Author = Participant
Contributor = Participant
Subscriber = Participant

Then which role do we assign to make someone a forum moderator??

Hi,

After installing BBpress, activating the plug-in and creating a forum and when I want to show the forum on my site I got the error-message:

“Catchable fatal error: Object of class WP_Error could not be converted to string in /home/112werkforum.nl/public_html/112werkforum/wp-content/themes/daily/functions.php on line 240”

Anyone, any idea or suggestion ?

Thanks, Fred

Hi BBPress Community,

I’ve got a fairly significant problem that I haven’t even noticed until today. No reply revisions are being saved to my Posts table since the beginning of December. I’m trying to think back to what I was changing on the site at that time and the only thing that springs to mind is the 2.2.3 update for bbPress. Checking the dates on Revisions from topics and other post types are saved without any issue.

I use define(‘WP_POST_REVISIONS’, 1); in my wp-config and this has worked just fine for me in the past.

I’ve poked around some, but I’m pretty stumped as to why this is happening. Could it be a permissions issue that prevents “Participants” from saving reply revisions?

I could really use some help on this one… not being able to see that a post was edited is causing some problems for my community 🙁

Thanks for the hint provided by @Rafael. I would like to add here that in order to keep the change in tact, it is better to edit it through our functions.php file in our theme directory so that even if bbpress gets updated, our changes remain intact. So I created these two functions along add_filter functions:

/**
 * The main forum loop. THIS IS CUSTOMISED TO ORDERBY TITLE INSTEAD OF MENU_ID
 *
 * WordPress makes this easy for us.
 *
 * @since bbPress (r2464)
 *
 * @param mixed $args All the arguments supported by {@link WP_Query}
 * @uses WP_Query To make query and get the forums
 * @uses bbp_get_forum_post_type() To get the forum post type id
 * @uses bbp_get_forum_id() To get the forum id
 * @uses get_option() To get the forums per page option
 * @uses current_user_can() To check if the current user is capable of editing
 *                           others' forums
 * @uses apply_filters() Calls 'bbp_has_forums' with
 *                        bbPres::forum_query::have_posts()
 *                        and bbPres::forum_query
 * @return object Multidimensional array of forum information
 */
function mybbp_has_forums( $args = '' ) {
	$bbp = bbpress();

	// Setup possible post__not_in array
	$post_stati[] = bbp_get_public_status_id();

	// Check if user can read private forums
	if ( current_user_can( 'read_private_forums' ) )
		$post_stati[] = bbp_get_private_status_id();

	// Check if user can read hidden forums
	if ( current_user_can( 'read_hidden_forums' ) )
		$post_stati[] = bbp_get_hidden_status_id();

	// The default forum query for most circumstances
	$defaults = array (
		'post_type'      => bbp_get_forum_post_type(),

	if ( is_numeric( $args ) )
		$args = array( 'post_parent' => $args );

	);
	$r = bbp_parse_args( $args, $defaults, 'forum_get_subforums' );
	$r['post_parent'] = bbp_get_forum_id( $r['post_parent'] );

	// No forum passed
	$sub_forums = !empty( $r['post_parent'] ) ? get_posts( $r ) : '';

	return apply_filters( 'mybbp_forum_get_sub_forums', (array) $sub_forums, $args );
}
add_filter('bbp_forum_get_sub_forums','mybbp_forum_get_sub_forums');

This may not be elegant solution but it saves us from the annoying impacts on bbpress updates.

I would love to hear from developers on this forum on how best this can be implemented without copy-pasting the entire function just to change one small variable and then giving it a new function name and then adding filters. Is there a better way, friends?

You will need to contact the theme authors as this is not a bbPress issue. http://www.themewich.com/forum

@bowromir – Are you able to switch to bbPress trunk, and see if that fixes anything?

My Russian localization got messed up once I upgraded to bbPress 2.2.3. The admin panel is in English again and some breadcrumbs on the front-end are in English. I have the .mo and .po files in /wp-content/languages/bbpress as instructed, downloaded the latest files as well, no dice. Any idea what needs to be done or when the updated files will be available? спасибо!

No login or register button is showing. It just says:

Any idea why this is not working?

Posting as admin seems to work fine. And if I check the box ‘allow anyone to post’ then it works.

I did try googling help and did try some other fixes but they either did not work, I did not fully understand what to do, the links were broken or I just missed something. I am new to the entire WP scene and now I do seem to be stuck.

Here is where I have looked so far:

Make a new login page

Thanks.

great keep doing this job 🙂

[marcello.vicidomini]

I think I figured out a cleaner way: I just wanted a list of links to the forums, not the whole loop with all the columns, so I searched for the code of the Forums list plugin in bbpress.php and used its name in the the_widget() function, like this:

the_widget('BBP_Forums_Widget');

It’s working well for me.

Hi folks,

Ultimate Tinymce developer here.

I was just made aware of this issue by one of your faithful followers, who pointed me over here to this thread.

He had some code he was using which allowed Ultimate Tinymce to work with the new WP and new BBPress. Here is the code:


function jwl_bbpress_mceallow( $args = array() ) {
$args['teeny'] = false;
return $args;
}
add_filter( 'bbp_after_get_the_content_parse_args', 'jwl_bbpress_mceallow' );


I have added the code to my plugin… which we are currently testing… and will be available in my next plugin release (version 3.9).

If I may be of any additional help, please don’t hesitate to contact me by using my form here:

Kind Regards!

I am trying to design a Question and Answer theme by customizing bbpress where Topics will be Questions and Replies will be Answers. I am able to change the display names and slug names of ‘Forums’, ‘Topics’ and ‘Replies’ into ‘Sectors’, ‘Questions’ and ‘Answers’ respectively using str_ireplace functions. (Please note that I have also changed ‘Posts’ into ‘Answers’). Its pretty easy until here. The problem I am facing is this:

When the single topic is displayed, the headers appear like this:

Author | Answers
Admin | What is the Capital of USA?
User1 | It's hmm.. I don't know.
User2 | I think its New York.
User3 | No Guys its washing ton.

The first post is in fact the Question. Unfortunately it also appears under Answers. I understand that I have to deal with the loop now because all posts looped in this topic naturally appear under Posts (in my case ‘Answers’). This was how bbpress is designed. But is there a way where I can have a different header for the very first post in my single topic and rest of the posts will have different header. For example:

Author | Question
Admin | What is the Capital of USA?

Author | Answers
User1 | It's hmm.. I don't know.
User2 | I think its New York.
User3 | No Guys its washing ton.
Author | Answers


How do I get this? Do I have to edit the loop or call it twice? If so, how do I set the query to get only first post in the first block and all posts minus first post in the second block.

Would appreciate any help. Thank you.

PS: I am using bbpress 2.2.3 along with Skeleton Theme (which has inbuilt theme support for bbpress).

I suspect the source is located in the X-Profile of Buddypress and Role Users
This could be a power failure occurs.
With my above can solve the problem, but it is extremely dangerous with large database

Someone highly qualified to study this problem one seriously, it is a great help.

Hello, I cannot post a topic in Japanese when I use a theme called ExtraNews I purchased. With the theme whenever I type a word and hit space key to convert the word into Japanese, the page automatically starts re-loading itself. It doesn’t happen with TwentyEleven theme.

Create a page and call it whatever you want.

Put the shortcode inside the page and you got an editable page.

Hi Lynq,
Thanks for your reply! I’m using a theme built for bbpress  (Bounce: http://demo.ghostpool.com/bounce/) so I think it comes already built into the theme.

The theme author pointed me to this thread, which I’d found myself earlier and doesn’t seem to address the issue in my case because I don’t have a file front-page.php: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/add-text-to-home-page-of-forum/

I have asked the author to tell me what the equivalent to front-page.php is, or where I can go to find this file (I can’t find it in Appearance–>Editor or Plugins–>Editor–>bbpress) but if anyone else has ideas on how to accomplish this I’d really appreciate it because I’m not sure he really knows how to help me.

Thanks 🙂

For those having problems with Roles/Capabilities where s2Member/bbPress is concerned, you might want to take a look at this thread for some helpful tips. We’ve been working with some folks on this lately, so perhaps this thread will save you some grey hair 🙂

See: http://www.s2member.com/forums/topic/uninstalling-s2member-causes-permission-issue/#post-35231

[WebSharks]

Thanks to everyone for reporting this compatibility issue between s2Member and bbPress v2.2+.

I’m Jason Caldwell, a developer over here at s2Member.com.

The latest release of s2Member includes a fix for this compatibility issue.

(s2Member/s2Member Pro) Compatiblity.
Updated to support Dynamic Roles introduced in bbPress® v2.2. Discussed in this thread. Also see changelog: http://www.s2member.com/changelog/#s2-changes-v121201

Please let us know through the forums at s2Member.com if you have any further trouble. Thanks again!

Do you not want to use your default template for bbPress then? You would like to use a different template?

[Stephen Edgar]

Just as a thought in that it wouldn’t hurt to try is to compare some of the latest and previous versions of bbPress to isolate if it is an IIS issue or a bbPress issue for certain.

The latest /trunk (overnight changes are always expected):
https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/trunk

Also try 2.0, 2.1 or any build really via https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags

(Each page has a ‘.zip’ link to download the particular build)
