WordPress version – 3.4.2
bbPress version – 2.1.3
Website – kidbusinessowners.wordpress.com/

Alright I am, well, almost completely clueless on how all of this stuff works. I downloaded the WordPress today and the bbPress. My main reason for trying WordPress is because I want to have a forum. I don’t understand, I’ve created a user with both WordPress.com and WordPress.org and I can make my blog with the .com but I downloaded the stuff on the .org. How do I link up the download with my website? Does it require an extensive knowledge of scripting codes (which, as you can tell, I’m not extremely good at)? Thank you!

HI There

I Don’t have Jetpack installed. For me, the problem appears to be related to the 2011 theme.

The steps as I recall them.
1. Brand-new installaiton of WP 3.4.2. This installation is using the 2011 theme by default. I have not done any changes to the theme.
2. Added some pages, changed some basic config (time zone etc)
3. Installed bbpress via the Add new plug-in dialogue in WP

When I returned to the pages added in step 2, there is no menu bar in the editor.
New pages have a menu bar.
When I return to the newly added pages to edit them,

If I change the theme to bbpress 2010 or the vanilla 2010, the problem does not occur.

I think I have enough to proceed with my installation.
Let me know if you need any more information.

Ian

Downgraded to jetpack 1.9.2 and everything seems fine, thanks for the help

[jflarity]

Thanks for the reply! I’m working on a way to make it work well with Thesis 2.x. If I find anything, I’ll post it here. Thanks again!

[John James Jacoby]

Afraid I’ll need more information to be helpful then; the only time I’ve seen this is with Jetpack 2.0 installed. It’s possible some other plugin or theme is causing a similar issue, but it’s still a WordPress core bug at the core.

[robertFudge]

Added manually for development purposes… how can I hook these into bb profile and save them from there? I have been working on this for 2 days with no success. At this point I can not change bbpress, I need a way to do this. Thanks in Advance.


add_action( 'show_user_profile', 'extra_user_profile_fields' );
add_action( 'edit_user_profile', 'extra_user_profile_fields' );

function extra_user_profile_fields( $user ) { ?>

<input type="text" name="address" id="address" value="ID ) ); ?>" class="regular-text" />

<input type="text" name="city" id="city" value="ID ) ); ?>" class="regular-text" />

<input type="text" name="province" id="province" value="ID ) ); ?>" class="regular-text" />

<input type="text" name="postalcode" id="postalcode" value="ID ) ); ?>" class="regular-text" />

< ?php }

add_action( 'personal_options_update', 'save_extra_user_profile_fields' );
add_action( 'edit_user_profile_update', 'save_extra_user_profile_fields' );

function save_extra_user_profile_fields( $user_id ) {

if ( !current_user_can( 'edit_user', $user_id ) ) { return false; }

update_user_meta( $user_id, 'address', $_POST['address'] );
update_user_meta( $user_id, 'city', $_POST['city'] );
update_user_meta( $user_id, 'province', $_POST['province'] );
update_user_meta( $user_id, 'postalcode', $_POST['postalcode'] );
}

I wasn’t using jetpack, and the error occured after I updated bbpress to 2.1.3
I rerun a backup, where bbpress is 2.1.2 again and the issue is gone.
The insert media button within wordpress works again and the fancy editor shows all buttons normally.
No clue if the update really caused it not too fond to find out either haha.

[John James Jacoby]

Version 2.1.3 does everything it can to suppress the issue in Jetpack 2.0. Jetpack 2.0.1 will come with its own fix. It’s actually a WordPress core issue causing this; see: https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/22413

[pompilos]

I agree with heavydutyfd and others. I would be much better to have a different table in the database for users of the forum (bbPress) and a different one for users or the site (WP). Actually I am still using bbPres 1.0.1 in order to not include that users (about 6000, quite all spammers) in my WP database.

Is there any plugin for creating a different table of the database? Thanks, guys.

Or maybe: How to “promote” bbPress forum topic to WordPress blog post?

[bjj_pl]

Hi, does anyone know how to display latest topics on front page? To be more specific I want them to appear just like normal wordpress posts do. New topics are shown just like new posts. Does anyone know a aplugin that does that or any other suggestions? I don’t need another sidebar widget for bbpress plugin. I can do styling on my own but can’t handle with coding.
please help

[Stephen Edgar]

I have just created a ticket in trac https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/2021 and we will look into this as soon as we can.

[zeaks]

I was using Version 2.1.3 already :/

[Stephen Edgar]

Ahhh…. Try updating bbPress to 2.1.3 as it includes the fix for the Jetpack issue.

[zeaks]

Using Twenty Tweleve wordpress theme, the default compat theme the html and visual tabs are to the left and if clicked they create and tags, there’s no background behind the toolbar. If I click the link button, the popup shows up but it looks as if all the CSS for it is missing and I see constant loading icons. If I disable the “fancy” toolbar, I don’t see a toolbar or buttons at all. If I switch to Twenty Ten forum theme, then the toolbar shows.

** Update, looks like a conflict with Jetpack, works fine if I disable it.

I am trying to repro it now… Not having much luck though!

What themes activated do you see this problem?

What themes activated do you NOT see this problem?

Do you see the correct toolbar on bbPress ‘Create Topic’ & ‘Create Reply’ regardless of the activated theme?

And is it the same behaviour with WordPress posts and pages?

[zeaks]

Same problem here, thought it was a theme issue. If I switch to using the Twenty Ten theme template, the toolbar looks fine, but not really a solution since it messes up everything else.

[IanSymonds]

HI Netweb

I did have that setting checked, although unchecking it has no effect. The issue remains.

Thanks
Ian

[Stephen Edgar]

Do you have the ‘Fancy editor’ setting checked in WP-Admin -> Settings -> Forums?

[Stephen Edgar]

Use the ‘Import Forums’ tool in WP-Admin -> Tools -> Forums that is included with the bbPress plugin, it is based on bbConverter but has had quite a few improvements since the last release of bbConverter.

[robertFudge]

After some research on this I found this bug trac : http://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1955#comment:2 and tried the solution with no success, can you offer any help to help me use these costume contact fields and have them work with the bbPress user profile?

WP: version 3.4.2
bbPress: Version 2.1.3

[chibichiii]

Allright figured it out 😀 Finally got it all working!

@3sixty

I’ve managed to get the Sitewide forums to work with the Activity. I’ve disabled the Discussion Forums within Buddypress, and in the settings of Bbpress 2.0 I activated the All Users can create Group Forums.

Just trying to figure out now how to create group forums without the discussion forums activated.

[chibichiii]

The very important difference between these two forums

1) Sitewide forums; adding favorite, creating or replying to any topics in sitewide forums does not show up in Members directory. It does however show up in the activity stream.
But with this it gives no ability to keep track of your created or replied to topics.
2) Sitewide forums allow you to make subforums just like wordpress allows you to adress a parent page. You can adress several Subforum to a Parent Forum, so to create the PhpBB structure most forums contain. Group forums will not allow this kind of structuring. You just have 1 Forum per group containing topics.
3) Group Forums however do show up in member directory so you can easily keep track on your created and replied topics under your members profile page using the subnav Forum.
4) To respond to group forums members must join to the belonging group first, where sitewide forums lets anyone who has registered to your page create topics and reply to them.

Your welcome, I guess it only works on thesis version 1.x, version 2.0 of thesis is different than other lower version of thesis.
