On my forum, it is only possible to create a new topic when in the actual forum. How do I make it like this site has, where you can click “Create New Topic” on the top and then choose the forum from a dropdown?

[Pippin Williamson]

I love the idea. Nice job.

I’ve used the GD bbPress Attachment plugin for a while and it works really well.

Hi I have WP 3.4.2 and BBPRESS 2.1.2 and my Topics and Replies have recently disappeared (after some upgrade). Today I found out that it interferes with plugin WP-Sticky 1.50. After disabling, BBPRESS is showing again everything!

[fatsandrew7]

weird — when i subscribed to this topic it worked perfectly.

incidentally, i discovered the conflict was in fact with the imember360 software i am using for my membership restrictions.

i am still working on a solution, but i’m confident bbpress is working as it should.

I’m new and I’m baffled. Information overload.

I’ve just added the bbPress plugin to my site because I need a simple BB type forum where you have TOPICS and posts under those topics.

I need it to look like a regular BB type.

This site shows an example of what type of forum I really need to create for my WordPress installation that was done by another type of software.

http://www.csharpforums.net/forum.php

Unfortunately, my forum looks more like BLOG posts within that narrow main column (what is that, 640 width?) within my wide monitors. That’s fine for other sections of my WP site, but not the forum part I want within WP.

Can someone tell me what I need to do?

Thanks.

I’m assuming this problem is blatantly avoided by bbPress. A response with a Yes we will do it or No we won’t/can’t would at least be nice so I can move on to paying someone for a fix.

Are there anybodys help me ?

[kortschot]

He there… I got my own wp theme, within it a folder called bbpress for overriding files like loop-topic.php. No big deal, everything works great. But… when doing a search in the forums I would like it to use bbpress-search.php in mytheme/bbpress/ and not make use of the default search.php. I need this due styling and I need way less stuff in the results. Just want topic title and a little excerpt that’s it.

So… main question, can I create a bbpress-search.php or something so when I do a search bbpress uses that file for showing it’s results. If so do you have any pointers?

second… why isn’t there a default search function in a forum plugin like this?

third… when is the next version comming and is there a new feature list somewhere? Thanks! Paul

There are a few plugins that let you do this. Try GD bbPress Attachment

[sharonhandy]

I want to allow users to upload to the forum. IS that difficult or possible?

[Shane Gowland]

As much as I hate shameless self-promotion, this is the “Pimp your press” forum so I’m going to let it all out.

I’ve just launched BeeForums, a free hosted bbPress service. It works just like those free forums services for other scripts (SMF, IPB, PHPBB) except it’s all bbPress & WordPress.

Features include one-click forum installation, a selection of (responsive) themes, spam protection, attachments, signatures, CSS editor and more. Plus we have an awesome site mascot 🙂

[Anointed]

I just went through this nightmare and the way I got it to work was a little tricky.

When you get stuck like that, stop the script and go to the repair tab where you recount everything. Go through and do each one of those checkboxes one at a time. Then go and try to continue through the conversion process.

Keep in mind:
the user password portion is still broken. At least none of my old users can login to the new system like they should be able to. There is an unsolved trac ticket on this already.

@mordauk
I’ve got 32,000 members and 380k-ish posts, is it safe to use this plugin?

When I switched to bbPress that was the first thing my moderators asked me for, the ability to see unread, unanswered topcis.

*I am already having severe memory / performance issues with bbPress and don’t want to do anything to make it worse, but the moderators aren’t happy so mamas not happy

[Anointed]

The subscribe is broken on this forum as well. I just tried to subscribe to your topic, was sent to the homepage, go figure, and after checking subscription I see I’m not subscribed to your topic…

[Anointed]

I already posted a trac ticket, but I am going to post here in the hopes that someone with a larger bbPress site might have an answer for me.

I have a medium sized bbPress forum setup with about 32,000 members and about 400,000 topics. Decent size but not large by any means. I have friends who run vb sites with hundreds of thousands of users and tens of millions of posts, so I am a small fry.

The Problem:
I am getting constant out of memory errors in my database, and many times this will even lead to a 500 error on the front end.

One area I am having a problem with is anywhere dealing with users. For instance, on the wp-admin page there is a box ‘right now in the forums’ which gives details such as # of users posts etc.

Without exception if I have bbPress installed, my page errors out on that box and it is blank. I look in my error log and see the out of memory errors.

The amount of memory that I assign doesn’t seem to matter, I have gone as high as 1GB for the site but still get the error

This is making my entire network of sites completely unstable and almost completely useless. I’d hate to loose bbPress as that is the entire reason I built this in the first place.

Does anyone have ideas on how to solve these issues?

*how to remove the happening now box on wp-admin
*how to clean up or optimize any functions pulling the members list (my user_meta table is almost 800,000 rows)

**I am running buddyPress 1.7 bbPress 2.2 and WordPress 3.5beta2

[mortenmr]

I’ve got the same issues, but in addition the “Add New Topic / Reply” is missing from the Dashboard for everyone except the administrator. I’ve matched the user rights in UAM to match bbPress User Roles and Capabilities. But nothing changes.

Any ideas?

[bjstone906]

I’ve found where the code lives! Now I don’t know how to change it to point to the bbpress profile (see below).

&lt; ?php printf(__(&#039;Logged in as <a href="%1$s">%2$s.'), get_option('siteurl') . '/forums/users/', $user_identity); ?&gt; </a><a href="" title=""></a> 

I’ve tried changing the href to

href="http://retreadwerks.com/forums/users/%1$s" 

but that’s not working either. I dont know what bbpress users for its profile url but I’ll keep looking. In the meantime does anyone have any suggestions?

Hi,

I’m wondering if anybody have some advice how to achieve this:

I have created 3 roles called; member, steeringgroup and board, with Justin Tadlocks Members plugin.
Now I’d like to restrict those roles to the following bbpress forums:

Category forum A (can only be viewed by logged in users, in role member, steeringgroup and board)
 - Forum
 - Forum

Category forum B (can only be viewd by logged in users, in role steeringgroup and board)
- Forum
- Forum

Category forum C (can only be viewd by logged in users, in role board)
- Forum
- Forum

Not logged in guests should not see anything of the forums, they will be redirected to a sign-up page. (have fixed this one).

Currently all 3 category forums and sub forums are visible to all logged in users at all times.

Running WordPress 3.4.2, bbPress 2.1.2, Members 0.2.1

Thank you in advance for any help/advice.

Hi everyone!

I’m using bbPress (last version, with lastest WP too in a single site) and have the General Forums activated (not the group ones). I activated the option to use the WP WYSIWYG visual editor for the comments, which had a black background and a white text color. Usually it worked very well, but one day (too far ago), the color of the text changed to gray (check the image below).

I don’t remember changed anything on the code. Maybe it was a plugin update or something like that, but I couldn’t change it back.

Thanks!
