Is there a way to configure bbPress so that my permalink structure would look like this: mydomain.com/forums/forum/topic/random-post-about-something/

today it’s like this:

mydomain.com/forums/topic/random-post-about-something/

Thanks loads, I’m definitely on my way now. If I can just identify the first post then I’ve got everything I need.

I guess I could just set a global flag once we’ve done the first loop to say don’t process my function again – but that doesn’t seem particularly elegant!

Cheers, will definitely pop a credit / link in when I get this out.

aaclayton, speaking about “I wonder how some of the dedicated forum platforms handle this sort of feature.”

Im running bbpress 1.0.2 forum with 400+ topics and 16000+ posts for 2+ years. Im using “Unread Posts” plugin written by ck and should say that its perfect. Have not faced any errors or performance problems with it. Maybe you should look at source of that? Not sure if that plugin can be still found on net, but in case its not I can share the code (actualy there is just one php file).

[Limbobski]

When using the same database for 1.0.2 and 2.1.2, will this work? Does version 2.1.2 use different tables, so I can import from the 1.0.2 tables?

[kate.t]

Thank God! I found the answer just when I need it, and I’ll like to share with all of you. As well as for myself in case I forget.

I went to loop-single-reply.php in bbpress-theme-compat/bbpress

I added below residence;

by the way ‘residence’ is the usermeta key that I have used for country of the author. I used the User Meta Pro plugin to create that field in registration and attached the usermeta key to that piece of information. Hope this helps whoever is looking for it

I posted about this issue.

[LabSecrets]

After (literally) hundreds of folks asking for help with how to get BuddyPress & bbPress playing “nice” with one another, I made this video to walk step by step through the entire process. I’ve also included a few insider tricks to get past the pitfalls.

It’s long (16 minutes), but takes you from blank WP installation all the way to a gorgeous Frisco child theme setup with group forums and sitewide forums living in harmony.

If you are frustrated or stuck, please grab a beverage and have a view:

If you have any questions, drop me a line.

Cheers!

Run the ‘Import Forums’ tool as outlined here:
https://codex.bbpress.org/import-forums/

[Limbobski]

OK, so you tried installing 2.1.2 on top of the old 1.x version and the posts did not come over?

Hopefully someone will answer us and let us know what our options are.

[lividinstruments]

I’ve installed it just fine, it’s just like any other plugin. but how do I migrate all of my posts from 1 to 2?

[goddess_dix]

I would be interested in trying this out, after many hours of trying to make Tango extended Smilies and bbpress play nice. I cannot get Tango to convert the smilie codes to the smilies and my users are accustomed to using the codes from the blog side.

[Pippin Williamson]

Off the top of my head I’m not sure, but tinker with it a little and report back. I’ll be traveling for a day or two, but I can try tinkering with it when I get back.

[aaclayton]

Hi Pippin, great work on this plugin so far. Thank you. I read through the code and tested it out. The plugin works great, and I commend you for your hard work on this. I wanted to provide a bit of feedback in case you are planning any further revisions, just to weigh in with my 2c: 1) I realize you needed somewhere to hook the “mark as read/unread” link, and by default in bbp_theme_compat no action hook is provided in a topic header. Hooking it onto the subscribe link wedges it between subscribe/favorite and is overall a bit awkward for templating. I’m not sure what a better default solution would be, but personally I felt the need to unhook this and manually place the toggle button somewhere more appealing. 2) A standalone function to display a loop of unread topics would be great. show_unread_topics() is purpose built for the bbpress user profile, but under many circumstances users might want to call this list elsewhere (if we are using BuddyPress profiles for example). Personally I created a “View Unread Topics” page that functions similarly to the “Recent Topics” archive. Anyways, including a function for just the unread topics loop (with pagination) would be a nice addition for template flexibility purposes. 3) For a site with thousands of topics, is having that bulky a “_bbp_mar_read_ids” entry in meta a concern? 4) The plugin serves a nice function of allowing a user to track whether or not he/she has looked at topics which are posted. However, it seems to me that full “view unread posts” functionality would entail clearing resetting the “read” flag when the topic is updated with a new reply. What about saving each “read” ID to meta as: post_id?num_replies where num_replies is the number of replies to the topic when the user marked it as read. When a topic is called you can explode out how many replies it had when the user first marked it. If the topic now has more replies than when it was marked, you can override the “read” flag and reset it to unread. Probably not a very elegant solution, but I think what most users would be interested in is being able to generate a list of threads with unread content, not necessarily just unread topics. Anyways, thanks very much for your work on this. I’ll be keeping an eye on how this project develops. Andrew

[lividinstruments]

I need that info too.

[Poloniumradon]

I’ve installed bbpress via Buddypress, by adding the sitewide forums.
I’ve also installed the plugin Vote-it-up.

To use this plugin, i need to edit some of the bbpress files. I need to find the file that lists all the topics and the single forum topic file.

I am using the Standard buddypress theme, but how can I access the bbpress files?

Versions:
Wordpress: 3.4.2
bbpress: 2.1.2
buddypress: 1.6.1

[alexanderraoul]

Hi!

wordpress version: 3.4.2
bbpress version: 2.2-bleeding

When I click Edit post the edit post page appears but it hasn’t anything to edit. The post doesn’t appear and therefor I cant edit the post.

Does anyone know why?

[jezza101]

OK, so to do that I would have to close the post myself, which looks like I just have to add two x divs

 Div   <!-- .bbp-reply-content -->

Div

But it looks like HTML filters are being applied still – ah, is this a case of ordering things so that my filter comes right at the end, ie after the HTML filter?

..ah a quick test and, yes, this seems to work.

$content=$content.'TEST1(/div)(/div)IS THIS BETWEEN POSTS? YES!(div)(div)';

Ah apologies, the forum filter has filtered out the DIVs above.. putting them back in with curly brackets.

Excellent. Looks like I need to put some thought into how to make it look good but I think I can work on that! One last question then (sorry, and thanks for your help!), how do I pick out the first post?

I had problem getting this working. Here is my solution.

I had old translation files in the plugin directory (/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-languages/). bbPress was using theses instead of those in the good directory(/wp-content/languages/bbpress/). Remove files from the plugin folder, since the good place to put them is in the language folder(/wp-content/languages/bbpress/).

[Ronileco]

I haven’t worked on BuddyPress and BBPress on BodyPress, so i can’t help you with that.
I’ll try to get someone to answer this :).
It is just a single php file, hope you can take the relevant parts and create a buddy press plugin.

[David]

I just setup BBPress today and am excited to get it fully deployed, however I’m having an issue with the Forum root page: http://bricksofthedead.com/forums/

As you can see, it’s posting truncated information. Also, the page is not editable.

To try to fix this, I created a page with that slug and used the shortcode, but once I published it behaved the same way.

I changed the URL on my created page to http://bricksofthedead.com/forum/, and it is displaying correctly, the trouble is, I can’t get the breadcrumb navigation to link there instead. I tried changing the default slug to /forum, but that ended up displaying the broken page instead of the correctly working one.

This seems like a super simple thing to fix, but I’ve been struggling with it for a couple hours now. Any help?

[Ajay Sharma]

firstly you must select one base forum to create topic, and if still not then there must be problem in integration bbpress check the short codes here https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/ create new post or page then per page separtely put required short code . and preview them they must work.
best of luck.

[pau-bbp]

Hi all. I am using bbPress 2.0.2 as a plugin with WordPress 3.3.1 The theme is Twenty Ten 1.3. bbPress pagination parameters: 15 topics per page, 15 replies per page. The problem: there is the biggest theme in our forum – http://chistyekluchi.org/?topic=вопросы-по-дорогам 136 replies. Every page link (1, 2, 3 etc.) works fine, only link to page 10 is broken. But 10th page is accessible by entering to the address bar: http://chistyekluchi.org/?topic=вопросы-по-дорогам&paged=10

Thank you very much in advance for answering

I’m having a lot of issues getting bbpress to work properly. first thing I need for users to able to write a post with HTML capabilities, and for some reason that option is all blanked out for subscribing users, i’ve tried everything. Second I would like users to have the ability to edit their post, I had that option before and now its disappeared for what ever reason i am not sure. And when i did have the edit post option available to users, you could make the revision but you couldnt submit it because of some issue with the form. Its the same problem as if I was Admin and editing another users post. you just cant submit it. I am working off the default bbpress theme, if anybody can shed some light on the topic It would be much appreciated, im losing my mind here

[Poloniumradon]

Since you’ve recommended the vote plugin, maybe this question is appropriate here.

I have a buddypress install and added bbpress via buddypress. Where do I have to add the code for the vote plugin? I know it’s in the single forum file, but I can’t find that in the standard buddypress theme.
