Use bbPress String Swap plugin: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-string-swap/

[Pippin Williamson]

No there is not any paid support for bbPress. It’s all volunteer.

Can you provide a live URL? The problem should be able to be fixed with a little bit of CSS.

[Pippin Williamson]

Only users with upload capability are allowed to embed images by default. I’d recommend that you install the GD bbPress Attachments plugin for this as it will give the option for users to upload images.

[Pippin Williamson]

It looks like you’re using a modified version of Twenty Eleven. The widgets in that page template are supposed to be on the side, but the modifications made to the theme have broken that.

Did you do the mods or have someone do it for you?

[Pippin Williamson]

There’s a lack of documentation at the moment because the site is being redone (slowly) and the individuals responsible for the majority of the documentation are also the main developers, who are busy writing code 😀

The location of the forums on your site depend on the settings you have set in Settings > Forums. Take a look at the documentation for basic settings.

You can also manually place the forums index on any regular WordPress page by using the [bbp-forum-index] short code. Short code reference.

@Danwp23 Hello, I was having this same issue when I came upon your post. I had not tried changing the permalinks yet but did and had the same successful result as you (no 404). I changed the permalinks back to the post name structure then changed the theme package under the forum settings to Twenty Ten instead of bbPress Default. Refreshed the forum page and IT WORKED! The only conclusion I can make is there may be a issue with the bbPress Default theme package and some custom themes. Let me know if this works for you, hope so!

[robthecomputerguy]

Apparently not, and I have the same question. How do I get the forum to appear anywhere on my website, since every theme maker says they’re bbpress compatible???

I am trying to get rid of the text: “Add this topic to your favorites” and “This topic is one your favorites”, as I am using a background css image instead.

The icons are working beautifully, bar the fact that the text comes up.

You will also notice that if you click the star to add it to your favorites, another star appears, which is a link to all your favorites. It appears the link to the forum favorites doesn’t have its own css class, which is why both are coming up as stars. I’d like to get rid of that.

Not sure if this will fit in with your plugin bbPress String Swap David, if you see this.

If you want to see this in action on my forum (still being built), log in at http://netballscoop.com/log-in/ with Username: testing and Password: testing. The forums are at http://netballscoop.com/forums and click on a single topic to see the favorites and subscriptions at the top underneath the title.

I am using WordPress 3.4.2 and bbPress 2.1.2.

Hello again,

I have created a new page and added [bbp-topic-form] shortcode inside it. However, this page isn’t 100% full width.

How can I “force” this page to get the .bbPress #page class ?

Thanks

Well, it looks like the bbPress developers made quite a few changes to the theming system.
I’ll see what I can do..

I just installed bbPress and did a test creation of a new user and it sent me the email with the random password but after I logged in I saw no way for a user to change that password to something they would remember. Am I missing something or can’t this be done?

Hi all,

I just did an upgrade from bbPress 1 (standalone version) to the latest version. I imported the old forum using the plugin’s Tools > Import Forum function. All my topics and replies are there, but it shows that I am the creator for everything. It’s very flattering, but now it just looks like I talk to myself:

Some screenshots:

Is there a way to recalculate/import users?

Do I need to re-import?

Thanks!

[montaya]

When running a number of plugins together it is difficult to understand what does what ie
buddypress bbpress and s2member

does bbpress add groups and add members, if so where do I go for instructions?

HELP please!!!!!

Hi,

I’ve been trying to convert a standalone version of bbpress (1.0.3) to the newest version (2.1.2) with the import tool. I’ve filled in all the correct login/db info, but it isnt importing anything.

Look at this for instance:

SELECT convert(topics.topic_id USING "utf8") AS topic_id,convert(topics.topic_posts USING "utf8") AS topic_posts,convert(topics.forum_id USING "utf8") AS forum_id,convert(topics.topic_poster USING "utf8") AS topic_poster,convert(topics.topic_title USING "utf8") AS topic_title,convert(posts.post_text USING "utf8") AS post_text,convert(posts.post_status USING "utf8") AS post_status,convert(posts.poster_ip USING "utf8") AS poster_ip,convert(topics.topic_start_time USING "utf8") AS topic_start_time,convert(topics.topic_time USING "utf8") AS topic_time FROM bb_topics AS topics INNER JOIN bb_posts AS posts USING (topic_id) WHERE posts.post_position IN (0,1) LIMIT 0, 100

No topics to convert

It uses the correct table prefix:

FROM bb_topics

But no importing. What is going wrong?

Any help is greatly appreciated!

[Pippin Williamson]

Yes, the option to disable Topic Tags removes the tags meta box.

[matthewbotti]

I noticed in Pippin’s first screenshot that there was an option to uncheck whether topics allow tags – does this mean that the next version will allow us to finally get rid of the “Tags” box when posting topics? I’ve been racking my brain on trying to figure out how to get rid of tags but if the option comes available in the next version I’ll likely just wait until then, unless there’s a way to do it now that I’m not aware of.

I’m running wp 3.3.2. BuddyPress 1.5.6. Just installed bbPress 2.1.2. I’ve had bbPress 2.0 – 2.0.3 installed and none work. I’ve seen this work on an other site with bbPress 2.0.2. I’ve wasted a half day on trying to get this to work.

[infuri0us]

Hey guys, my website is alphaonegaming.com, and I have installed the bbpress wordpress plugin, but when I go to make a user registration page, the template for making it so does not appear. I am using the lucid theme by elegant themes if that helps.

[danecarp]

Hi guys,

new bbpress user here. I’m noticing that if I am logged in as the admin, I am able to embed images into a post, using the html editor, but regular forum members are not.

Been trying to figure this out for the last couple days with various plugins and reading through boards, but nothing really seeming to work.

wp version 3.4.2
bbpress version 2.1.2

Thanks in advance,

-Dan

Hi Guys,

bbPress (2.1.2) on WP 3.4.2 logout gives error code 500 (Internal server error).

Error log:

> mod_security: Access denied with code 500. Pattern match
> “\\.php\\?.=(http|https|ftp)\\:/.\\?” at REQUEST_URI
> [hostname “www.xxx.nl”] [uri
> “/wp-login.php?action=logout&_wpnonce=5a9ef61b36&redirect_to=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.xxx.nl%2Fwp-admin%2Fplugins.php%3Fplugin_status%3Dall%26loggedout%3Dtrue%23038%3Bpaged%3D1%26%23038%3Bs”]

bbPress doesn’t use rawurldecode()?

For now, what is the best solution? Which file and which code should I change? Or is there another solution?

[RiGoRmOrTiS_UK]

Does bbpress have a paid support service where you can actually get support or responses from the devs? The amount of bugs in it….

Widget layout issues, private and hidden forums don’t work properly by disappearing under categories or not tallying topics and posts in the list….

I finally go this to work. The only way I could get the migration tool to function correctly is by using “localhost” as the host instead of an IP address or fully qualified domain name.

This is OK if the database is on the same host but if you are moving from another location, it won’t work.

Maybe I am missing something.

At any rate, this particular instance was solved by using localhost instead of an IP address.

[hixsonb]

I have WordPress 3.4.2 and bbPress plugin version 2.1.2.

I recently used the migration tool to import the data from an old bbPress 1.1 forum. Everything seemed to go quite well. I did lose some topics but I can certainly live with it.

I have, however, noticed that the Login Notice “You Must be logged in to post a topic” is NOT showing when users are not logged in.

I can see the code (or what I think is the code) in the bbPress template but it just won’t show.

Yous assistance would be appreciated.
