I started last year with 1.0 and I loved that every time a forum user would post or reply I would get an email. My blog is seasonal with a high point in Sept/Oct and I don’t have time to look each day for new replies/posts.
My question is this… Was this functionality (sending me a email) installed from another plugin that was disabled this summer (and thusly not working anymore) or does everybodies BBpress installations do this and I have a conflict that is preventing me from getting them?

I think it’s this one.

Hi rossjlennox,

No worries. My poor quiet thread.

We were actually unable to do a fix, but our solution was to restore the site to original and do a clean re-install, re-import. And I mean restore the site from the database as if from scratch, and not use any of the bbPress import or troubleshooting tools.

My issue was that when I did the importer for the first time, I had forgotten to set the dropdown menu to “bbpress standalone.” The steps to import were very specific, and one small misstep like that affected everything. So the second time around, we made sure that all the settings and fields were correct before importing again.

It now works for us.

I would try restoring the site again and maybe deactivate all the plugins. Hope that helps.

Please stop bumping this topic.

Nobody can help you.. Go to the WordPress support forums there is much more traffic.
Maybe somebody over there can help , else it’s just not possible and you have to pay somebody to do so.

Good question i would like to know also.

I doubt somebody has figured it out because i see this happening al the time at bbPress and WordPress forums.

For now:
Add the tagged words that clearly have nothing to do with your support-forum like Abercrombie, NBA, Air Jordan and stuff like that to the WordPress settings blacklist.

Hi folks,

I have a small forum that I use for some support on plugins for various open source projects. I currently allow anonymous users to post topics and replies, but protect the forum with Akismet and the bbPress recaptcha plugin. This seems to take care of many spurious spam posts. However, I seem to have an extremely large amount of topic tags that are spam. I have several questions about that:

1. Can topic tags be created without a topic creation or reply or reply edit?
2. Can topic tags be turned off for anonymous users? (I don’t believe so, but would love to know otherwise)
3. Which files do I have to edit to only allow editing of topic tags by registered users and/or admins?

Thanks,

Tomek

Gingerngo – apologies for bombing your thread without an answer but I am seeing this exact behaviour on my own forum after upgrading from v1 to 2. Have you made any progress? I would be eternally grateful for any light you may be able to shed.

P.S. I too had the integration plugin installed and active during the upgrade process.

With bbpress installed on my site several blog posts appear with the text of the forum articles and not of the blog. All gets mixed up

How can I solve this?

Thanks

Hello,

I just installed buddypress/bbpress in my site, it is using catalyst/dynamic theme and everything works fine but I really dont like the bbpress forum layout. It displays well but it is just ugly. Is there any way to change the style or look of the forum without changing my theme? I would like something more like vBulletin, phpbb or even this same forum which looks a lot better.

You can take a look at http://www.luchotv.com/foro

wp 3.4.2

bbpress 2.1.2

buddypress 1.6.1

buddypress template pack 1.2.1

catalyst 1.5.3

dynamic 1.1

Thank you for your help,

Luciano

Create a new page and use the [ shortcodes ]

https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/
(bottom)

Step 4:

The code is a bit messy.
Here is the code in Pastebin.

Change the default to the NEW and you’re done.

Alright guys i’ve got a solution,

Please note, i have ZERO PHP skills so this probably isn’t the best solution on earth but i think it’s a good work-around to get the job done ‘easy’..

If some PHP developer reads this topic and thinks, damn this guy is going crazy with all his copy-/pasting stuff please feel free to modify this code..

What did i do:
First i opened up the Core template file of bbPress where the Breadcrumbs function is made.
I have copied the code and pasted inside a new PHP document, made some simple HTML changes before and after the urls and called this new template file inside my Theme’s functions.php

Last i called my custom Breadcrumb PHP code just to make sure my code is loaded and not the default bbPress code..

Here you go.
When your done it should look like this structure..
http://i46.tinypic.com/33z93lg.png

Nothing too fancy but the only difference, it’s made by a HTML List , like it should be in 2012 because a Breadcrumbs is a navigation and not just 5 URLs behind each other.
http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/components.html#breadcrumbs

Step 1:
Paste all this code into a new empty PHP document and call it breadcrumbs.php
When your done drop this file into your Themes include folder.
wp-content / themes / [ your-theme-name ] / inc / * here *
http://pastebin.com/bWdPEXa5

Step 2:
Open your theme functions.php file and add this code to it.
http://pastebin.com/nJ9pZinq

Step 3:
Open the bbPress or WordPress stylesheet and add those few lines of CSS to it.
http://pastebin.com/KyPuknTw

Step 4:
Inside the bbPress template files you often find this line of PHP code, it calls the default Breadcrumb function:

Change that line to this one and your done..

__( '', 'bbpress' ), ) ); ?.>

• without the dots before and after the -> .?.

Hope this helps..

What can i do to overwrite a bbPress Core function and develop my own function..

Let say i want to overwrite the default bbPress breadcrumb tag.

I found the Core code inside a Core-template and i pasted this code inside a new PHP document changed all the bbp_ names of all functions to bbp_shmoo_ > Saved it.

Loaded this new file from the inc. folder into my themes functions.php with the require_once tag..

Change the PHP code inside my forum template from bbp_breadcrumb(); to bbp_shmoo_breadcrumb(); but this doesn’t work, why does it break my theme ?

I need a before_link and after_link array.

This is what a breadcrumb looks like, by default made with a List because it’s a navigation.

@JJJ

Please do the people on bbPress.org a huge favor and delete all the fancy stuff in this comment-form, just load the default wordpress.ORG comment-form it’s huge and only support a few needed options. This is getting ridicules. People have to be an acrobat to post some code on this forums.

I can’t copy-/paste @mattsimo code because of this forum-software.

Safari + Firefox it doesn’t copy the the selected code i needed.

[Shmoo]

Maybe a little bit late..

The Lead Topic ( content-single-topic-lead.php ) is a very powerful but super simple function that can be used to style the Topic Authors different from the Repliers..

It’s also very useful if you want to add some ads or a simple note to your readers after the first message ( from the topic author)

Bummer this is nowhere to be found in the Codex.
But you can activate this option by adding this line of code to your WordPress theme functions.php template file.
Note i say functions.php and not bbpress-functions.php because you if you would add it to the bbpress-functions.php this code will be overwritten when the bbPress plugin updates in the future.

add_filter( 'bbp_show_lead_topic', '__return_true' );

Hope that helps..

Vistors who are not logged on get this error how do i fix it?

http://i49.tinypic.com/2rdbuqr.png

[Stephen Edgar]

The only thing I can think of to offer at the moment would be this ticket in trac “Enable WordPress custom fields” as https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1743. If a patch/plugin was made to support this then that might be enough for MemberMouse to hook into…

[fuzzybee]

Hi Zaerl,

Thanks so much.
I have found the answer for myself actally.

Yes, I love the fact that bbPress is not obtrusive!
It almost doesn’t matter at all how I am trying integrate BuddyPress here.

So this narrow downs to customise bbPress template when installed as a plugin to WordPress.
The answer is here: https://codex.bbpress.org/legacy/step-by-step-guide-to-creating-a-custom-bbpress-theme/ 🙂

It appears strange to me though.
Why does this guide belong “legacy” documetation?

[kate.t]

I agree. In fact GD BBpress Tools doesn’t work very well. It doesn’t add a quote link to every post, only selected posts, and I have no idea why.
In any case…quoting replies is really a basic function of any forum.
Hope to see it in the upcoming versions.

[kate.t]

How do I hide my bbpress version? I can see it from firebug

[dwbroad]

I have created a forum and can register a new user and log in using the short codes. I can also go to the forum page and post new topics, etc.

http://www.davidbroad.co.uk/flac/forums/forum/forum/

My only problem is when the user is logged in and on their Dashboard page when they click ‘Topics’ or ‘Reply’ in the ‘Right Now in Forums’ box they get this message:

You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page. apart from this it seems to be working, but this is obliviously going to confuse some users..

I’m using WordPress 3.4.2 and bbpress 2.1.2

Thanks,

David

Anyone have any idea how to fix the problem that generated this error message:

bbPress database error: [INSERT command denied to user ‘dbo251638404’@’74.208.16.147’ for table ‘bb_posts’]

INSERT INTO bb_posts (topic_id,post_text,post_time,poster_id,poster_ip,post_status,post_position,forum_id) VALUES (‘14733′,’

how about now?

PM is a standard forum feature. When should we expect to see it added to the bbPress plugin?

[GSmith84]

Hello bbPress experts,

I have searched through the forums to find some means of restricting user access to content and it looks like some of the solutions revolve around a Membership plugin that exists.

The issue with that is several things, we’re not using User Roles. We’re trying to integrate with the MemberMouse premium plugin and users created via MemberMouse are not assigned roles in wordpress. This makes it useless to restrict access via User Roles. We’re also developing it on Thesis which seems to have a plethora of issues with bbPress regardless (so we have setup the compatibility plugin).

However, MemberMouse does have user levels and tags to call them via wordpress functions. We can restrict other types of content with means like

is_user_logged_in() && mm_isMembershipLevel(2)

So we were looking for a means to hook into the forums to create conditional statements like this.

For the time being we are hooking in the meta box and assigning an ID whether its public or restricted. Unfortunately we couldn’t find any solution letting us hook into the meta box and create restricts using traditional methods like described.

As such, we are injecting javascript to rewrite html elements for users that do not pass restriction, which is occurring after the page loads. We’ve spent a lot of time on this and would be interested to find out from bbPress veterans if there might be a hook or init function we can connect to, in order to make restrictions not role based but member based using the means provided by the MemberMouse plugin.

Hello, I am newbie to bbpress. I want to setup software manual page like http://codex.bbpress.org/. It has owner, contributors on right side. How can I do it?
