Right now bbPress doesn’t do anything with that.

It’s a good idea, but a plugin would need to be made to capture each users Google+ profile link (assuming there is one) and then put the stuff in the header as needed.

This is getting more complicated the more I realize what I need to do. Basically I have to add an extra login field to the WordPress / BBPress login. But the data in the field I have to add to the form resides on a separate database. So the complicated part is that I have ‘Username’ and ‘Password’ that is authenticated on the WordPress database and “Customer Number” that resides on another database. I’m not sure if there is a way to authenticate one login using multiple db’s.

Is ckeditor compatible with the latest version of BBpress?

Thanks!

I need to prevent users from being able to see the forum unless they are logged in. The trick is, the login form needs to authenticate against an external database that is contained in one of our servers (not WP or BBPress).

I’m trying to figure out the smartest way to do this. I thought of just creating a regular PHP login, but I’m not sure exactly how to restrict the forum this way. Right now I have all of my forums set to “private” which pretty much does the restriction for you.

It’s a bit complicated but any suggestions would be awesome.

[WP 3.4.2 + bbPress v2.2.2]

I’ve searched around a bit for a way to do this – but have found no neat solution. All threads relating to this seem to be 2-3 years old and be for the bbPress standalone rather than the plugin.

Basically what I want is a simple list displaying forums + topic count, in my page.php. Example:


<ul>
<li><a href="#">Forum title 1<span>Topic count</span></a></li>
<li><a href="#">Forum title 2<span>Topic count</span></a></li>
<li><a href="#">Forum title 3<span>Topic count</span></a></li>
</ul>


Etc.

I know that there is a widget listing the forums categories, but I need the topic count as well for a better overview. Also, if easily doable, I need to exclude a forum category from the list.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I’ve never used plugins for user roles.
And i don’t understand anything :

i can’t promote users as moderators anymore, Moderator roles no longer exist inside wordpress and every wordpress roles wich are not admins can’t moderate forums.

Then old moderators can’t log in wp-admin to edit bbpress subjects/replies anymore but they can edit replies and topics inside forums…

What the hell is this mess?? Why wasn’t it said before i upgrade??

[Darren1981]

Thanks Martin…

Ive managed to edit some bbpress templates to include the “Featured” image for the forum.. but i was aiming to have something like different icons for forums read / unread like most other forum software has.

Cheers again, i’ll keep playing around with it and see what i can manage.

Do you think making a child theme will resolve this issue, or is there an easier fix to the problem?

I am having trouble understanding where exactly the formatting of the bullet points is coming from… is there somewhere in the bbpress plugin editor that is determining the formatting or is there somewhere in the theme that is telling it to format tables as bullet points?

There could be a fix coming via BP Group Organiser plugin.

WP 3.4.2
BBPress Plugin – 2.2.2

1) Installed BBPress plugin. Did basic setting in admin for the plugin.
2) Copied archive-forum.php and single-forum.php from bbpress plugin directory to mytheme root directory.
3) Copied “css/bbpress.css” to mytheme root directory and then customized.
4) Installed “bbPress Search Widget” plugin. Put it in Primary Area.
5) That’s it. I have not created any new template/page for the forum.

All look fine and working but I have this problem.
If you go to this page http://www.clouni.com/askquestions/
You will notice the search widget in lower right side. How can I put it above the forum breadcrumb “CLOUNI › Forums” ?

You will notice the title “Forums” in left side. How can I hide it ? If I understand correctly, it is page title generated through wordpress. But how to hide it only for forum pages and not other page in wordpress ??

[Martin ( Martin_C )]

If you know CSS you can easily add some styles to your to style sheet. If you use the default templete, it could look like this:

.bbPress.forum .entry-title {

/*Styles to add icon image to the left of this element goes here*/

}

Ah-ha. Not much help but I have noticed that the Labsecrets sequence _does_ work for new groups you create _after_ setting up the bbPress group forums but not for pre-existing groups, where the ‘new topic’ button does not seem to work…

Hopefully there will be a fix soon, or is this something that needs the ‘import from BuddyPress’ feature to tidy up & re-link the older groups?

Hello,

I have a clean install of
Wordpress 3.4.2 and
bbPress 2.2.2

When I activate the bbPress Plugin, I get the following message. Does anyone have an idea, how to fix this? thanks in advance.

[anthonyluth09]

@szerman It looks like your default forum slug is at /forums not support. Are you sure you have a page setup at /support?

[Darren1981]

Hey all…

Hey to BBpress but have been working with / designing for many other platforms.. Anyways i was wondering what templates i would need to be editing in order to add a small forum icon next to the forum list… Much like how vBulletin / xenforo have a forum icon on the left before / next to the forum title.

Thanks in advance for any assistance on this.

Regards, Darren

[A1Dude]

Hi,

I installed bbpress on my website a few weeks ago, recently after plugin upgrade, i noticed that the forums topics no longer had the reply edit box, and the only thing i can see is a ‘comments are closed’ notification at the end. Previously it used to work correctly.

The website is http://www.funinfinite.com
Theme is atahualpa
Wordpress version is 3.4.2

[Sam Rohn]

And btw, from where can I make forums?

[bruceleebee]

I’m having the exact same problem. And like ffalder I can’t code, but usually Google my way out of a problem. But this time no luck.

From my research it seems lots of people are having the same problem.

I think the main issue here is the breadcrumbs.

1) You create a custom ‘forum home page’ using short codes (or whatever means you like) to be your default page that users see as the homepage of your forum.

2) A user try’s to get back to the ‘forum home page’ using the breadcrumbs by clicking the text “forums” in the breadcrumbs.

3) Unfortunately it just redirects to the forum slug chosen in Settings, not your actual ‘forum home page’. And that forum slug is always defaulted to an archives page.

4) So setting that slug to the same as your ‘forum home page’ does not work, because woprdpress overrides your ‘forum home page’ created in step 1 and defaults it to an archives page.

Sorry for re-hashing this, but it’s sometimes better to make it a little clearer. At least in my own head anyway.

I don’t know how simple this is or not, but one solution that comes to mind is to have an option in Settings that lets you decide where the ‘forums’ text link in the breadcrumbs will point to. If you can choose to have it point to your ‘forum home page’ then all would be solved right?

This person suggested changing the breadcrumbs in the core of the plugin, but obviously it’s not very desirable since it’s changes to the core. And I also cannot find the file that they edited. Think it might have been a mod to an old version: http://mysitemyway.com/support/topic/infocus-bbpress-20-root-slug
