I have a huge issue ATM on my install. One of my users reported that when editing their post it came up with all the posts of my site to edit. Not the forum post but the front page article posts.

The issue was reported here: http://pixelsedge.net/topic/edit-button-problem

I am using BuddyPress 1.5.6, bbpress 2.1.2 and s2member 120703. They all have ties together so I thought I would list them. Any help would be great as this is presently a HUGE issue

hey guys

I want my forum to look exactly like http://bbpress.org/forums/

I want the forum to be on the root of my site. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.com

Let me know how much you want for installation and customisation.

I can install wordpress as my host allowes 1 click install. i have installed bbpress but cant get it looking like what i want.

I really like the layout of this forum here and all the colors so id be happy if someone could clone it.

thank

Hi,

This may be very basic, so apologise to the wizards in here. I have installed bbpress and would like to keep the original CSS for the bbpress. Right now it automatically adjusts to the theme, and as I have some yellow text in the theme (black bg), it just doesn’t look nice in the forum. I have installed the CSS plugin for bbpress, so I can adjust the CSS directly in the editor, but I assume it must be possible to get the original CSS for the plugin displayed directly?

Thanks!

I suspect It’s your theme and there’s no simple way to fix it short of diving into the code 🙁

/forums (the auto generated page) is an CPT archive page and your theme is likely modifying the query or auto formatting its archives (this is common in frameworks). Normally this isn’t a problem, until you use a plugin like bbPress which excepts archive pages to not be “highjacked”.

The /forum works because I assume this is the page you created with the shortcode which isnt using the same template as mentioned previously.

Forwarding forums to `forum’ might work, but make sure that the root of the problem isn’t affecting other archive areas of your site (topic listings etc).

Copy

plugins/bbpress/bbp-themes/bbp-default/bbpress/loops-single-reply.php

to

[your_theme_directory]/bbpress/loops-single-reply.php

Edit line 27 to your liking.

You will need to create a counter. Something like http://pastie.org/5021188 would be a start. Though it will not take pagination into play, which will be something you must write.

There’s no plugin for this that works with the latest version of bbPress. Typically if you want advanced user profiles/user messaging you can use BuddyPress to add that functionality in tandem with bbPress.

[Guchion]

Basically is there one? I can’t find one despite quite a bit of searching, its pretty nuts, been using bbpress for a while now and just assumed it had one!

Its functionality is needed, otherwise can anyone recommend a forum which I can migrate to? already up heaved all my users once this year, not keen on doing it again!

Hi all, just a quick post to plug my new advert unit plugin. It’s a common idea but I couldn’t see a bbpress 2 version so thought I’d have a go. The plugin allows you to insert an advert unit into your threads. Currently the ad will appear after the first post, and can optionally be hidden from logged in users.

I have a few ideas on how to improve it and tidy it up, but happy to consider other requests time permitting.

You can download it from WP here.

Would love to hear from anyone using it and see it running on other sites…

Hi,

I installed the worpdress plugin for BBPress and i was facing some alignment issues. So i decided to remove the plugin and install a fresh copy.

After reinstalling, the forum appears blank (The test forum and topic i created do not appear).

Am i doing something wrong?

Please guide me.

Thanks,
PAbbe

Can plugin install to use in bbPress site?

[Jared Atchison]

Settings > General > uncheck “Anyone can register”.

If you are getting spammed despite all your said then it’s likely being done by human spammers, which really there isn’t much you can do about since that will thwart almost any method to automatically block spam.

[cgomez21]

Hi, Is there any plugin for flag inappropriate content???? I cant find any. PLSSSS HELP! I\m using bbpress Version 2.1.2

I already have installed wordpress with a theme of my choice and I would like to add the forums on a new page like http://www.mydomain.com/forums, I intall bbpress and link it to that page but the forums arent visible to me or anyone else. is there a known issue with this, I tried searching but cant figure it out by myself. thank you for your time.

[KMarx]

I’m having this exact same problem and it’s horrible, it’s destroying my site!

I installed Askimet and that helps, but not enough.

I installed a human challenge for registration, again it helps – but not enough.

I started blocking entire IP blocks via .htaccess – no luck.

I finally removed the registration link for the sign up entirely – STILL getting new users.

I spend an hour a day, every day of my life now just deleting spam accounts and spam posts that get past my filters. All I want to do is turn off registration and make it so only I can create accounts. I do NOT want to take down my site simply because I can’t get a handle on spam.

PLEASE – any help with this would be most appreciated!

Ideally I’d like to kill new user registration in a way that allows me to manually create accounts or, if that’s not doable – kill new registrations entirely.

Please help, i’m desperate!

This is the problem: http://i.imgur.com/TWMBl.png

(I’m going to put in a separate feature request with Crayon Syntax Highlighter, which we are using to highlight code on bbPress, asking if it’d be possible to ignore HTML tags inside code tags (both square brackets and the more future proof pre tags), but that wouldn’t be the cleanest solution.)

The better solution would be if the importer could prevent this from happening in the first place. If not for square code brackets (although this is a standard set by an Automattic plugin) then at least for pre tags.

In my tests, I embedded code in pre tags in a BuddyPress forum, imported it to bbPress and the embedded code was now populated with HTML tags, mainly br tags for the newlines. Funny thing is if I have the rich editor turned on, I can go into edit mode with a post that has code embedded, then I’ll go to the “Visual” mode and back to “HTML” mode, and everything has been cleaned up. I basically want the importer to do that step for me.

I think I found a fix…

In Settings > Forums, I deleted the ‘Forums base’ and ‘Topics base’ fields (leaving them empty) and Saved Changes. The page reloaded, repopulated those fields with the default values (forums, topics), and now it all works. Strange but true.

[Luke]

Same here. Fresh install of WordPress, added the bbPress plugin, created a Forum called “Discussion”, tried to visit mywebsite.com/forums/forum/discussion… Nothing. I kinda expected at least something to work out of the box.

And if you’re using bbPress in conjunction with BuddyPress, the mentions will point to BP profiles instead?

[DramaticBaby]

One more question, did you use a child theme for bbPress or did you make your own from scratch?

[DramaticBaby]

Wow! Really nice looking website, one of the better I’ve seen lately. Your forum is almost identical to what I want to accomplish in forms of layout etc.

I’m very new to bbPress, so haven’t really got the hang of customizing it.

May I ask how you accomplished the sectioning of the forum categories (General Discussion, Player factions etc.)?

[r-bouten]

I haven’t found the reason yet, but my guess is it could be something with the PHPMyAdmin version. I tried the same set up of the website (wp installation, bbpress, theme, plugins) on an other server and the Recent Reply Widget was working fine.

I had this problem before as well with posts being displayed in reverse order. So my guess is it’ could be the same problem now.

[nmus]

I have the same issue!
Recent Replies are shown in reverse order. I’m also using WordPress 3.4.2. and BBPress 2.1.2.

[Mike3853]

is there an estimate for when 2.2 will be out? my community has been enjoying BBpress so far, and can’t wait for an update! Thanks for all your work! http://msflights.net/

Can you supply a link to the plugin you are talking about:

> filiped / Member / 3 years, 5 months ago

> Admin Can Post Anything, from CK is a great plugin and works
> perfectly in the latest stable version of bbPress.

Thanks

Site- http://smokeradio.co.uk Word Press: 3.4.2 BB Press 2.1.2 Using the Twenty12 theme for BB Press but using a commercial theme GONZO for the site

I have a topic: Which i’d embedded a simple iframe to allow people to view a Public Dropbox folder. However you can’t see the content of the iFrame

The link works standalone – when not logged in or several browsers

I tried embedding another website (Google) and you can’t see that either.

I posted as the admin from the backend

The site I want to embed within the topic is:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/3t3n22slsptj1xs/Jc8rCxA3pU

Im not a coding whizz kid but sometimes putting things in Span and Div wraps helps, but has made no difference this time.

Is there any reason Why iFrame doesnt work in a BBPress topic?

Is there an alternative to use instead?

Here is a direct link to the topic in question. You’ll see the 410 pixel space where the iframe is supposed to be but its just a blank space. http://smokeradio.co.uk/forums/topic/resources/

Thanks
