I can’t belive, that this is acutally no out of the box function for bbpress / wordpress – but I have really big issues, with having certain forums or topic just accessable for certrain user groups.

It seems impossible, to create something, like user-groups, only roles can be done – thats okay. But Even with the Members Plugin, where I can create certain roles, it is absolutely impossible to specify, which user-role has access to a forum or topic.

Ex.: I created a user Role, then I created a forum, and I set the User-Role I created to be the only User role, that should have acccess to it. If I set the visibility to public, everyone could see it, If I set it to private, only logged in users could see it – everyone.

Isn’t there ANY way, to let my customer

• create User Groups (or roles)
• apply them to users
• and specify at each forum OR Topic, which user role should have access

We really need this! I know that this is possible with BuddyPress, but with my years of WordPress Experience, I have still no clue how to make a hole BuddyPress Site – there is no satisfying documentation about it. (as well as with bbpres.. btw..)

What do you mean by “messed up” when I look at them I see very minor changes, if any.

Let me know which specific points you are referring to in the layout and I could have a look for you.

Good luck!

ok, I think I understand the problem. I enter into the “child-theme” folder, the contents of the TwentyTen theme and customize it.
I would like to know if there is a way to add the entire folder “twentyten” in “child-theme” instead of what is contained in it?

bbpress not works with Mystique theme Version 3.3.2

pls help me to solve this issue.

short url :

[Gianluca]

Netweb thanks for the reply. The developer of the theme “mystique” says it supports bbPress 2.0. I initially installed the bbPress 2.0, but the problem is the same. (http://digitalnature.eu/themes/mystique/)

Hello guys,

I am running wordpress 3.4.1 and bbpress 2.1.2..
The Add this topic to your favorites and Subscribe button works well for Administrators but not for Authors
Author clicks those links, the span goes red color and happens nothing..
Would anyone suggest me what may be causing this?

Thank you!

Hi there, can any kind expert help me out? I’ve been doing lots of trial and error but I still can’t figure out the solution:
When I set my bbpress forums to wordpress home page, the page layout gets messed up
i.e. http://semjunkie.com/
If one goes directly to the forum page, the page layout displays how its supposed to
i.e. http://semjunkie.com/forums/

I really want bbpress to be on the home page though, is there anything I can do to make it display correctly when its set to static home page?

I have added the BBpress login box using BBpress shortcode but it is adding the vertical login box, which I don’t want. I am looking for horizontal login box that will keep both username and password on same row.

I am not sure how to approach this? Is there any way? I mean using CSS or php tweak?

Hey guys, the converter in BBpress worked out pretty well. There was some issues with emoticons not being converted properly but I ran into a more troubling issue. When a forum user tries to login into our site they get a php warning.

“Warning: require_once(bbp-converter.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/cog/public_html/test-site/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-user-functions.php on line 1466

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required ‘bbp-converter.php’ (include_path=’.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php’) in /home/cog/public_html/test-site/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-user-functions.php on line 1466”

It seems to be unable to find the bbp-converter file. This could possibly have something to do with our urls as the sites path is http://64.64.27.114/~cog/test-site/ and as you can see up above the path it is trying taking differs. Any thoughts on how I could resolve this? None of the users can login in right now.

this looks awesome – any chance you’ll support the version of bbpress that comes with buddypress for groups?

cheers!

[Stephen Edgar]

Do you have any other plugins activated? Try disabling them to see if there is a conflict.

Also deactivate bbPress then reactivate the plugin which should reset the permissions.

[Stephen Edgar]

I removed the BuddyPress section from the FAQ as after pointing someone to the FAQ I got a question “Do I have to install BuddyPress?” so to avoid confusion it is now separate.

What happens when using TwentyTen or TwentyEleven?

I don’t see any install of bbPress, only mingle forums at http://www.cvshore.com/forum/

Hello, I have a multisite 3.4.1 – buddypress 1.6.1 – bbpress 2.1.2 installation in a subfolder: mysite.com/subsite/ and I have some User Problems. Both Buddypress + bbpress are network activated.

1. When a user register he doesn’t appear at the main site but in the Superadmin users area.

2. Registered users can’t write reply’s or new topics, the following message appears: “You cannot create new topics at this time.”

What did I make wrong?
Why I can’t see registered users in the main site, so I can give them some roles?
Is there a solution?

Thanks
Kostas

p.s. The multisite+buddypress+bbpress installation and the main site is in the subfolder.

Hi

i use worpress 3.4.1 and I installed bbpress 2.1.2 on my site karnhack.com.

I have the permalink activated (I have tried to reset it) and the wordpress page is named karnhack.com/forum-test

When i click the forum “provaforum” bbpress opens the contents out of my site and ignores the permalink /forum-test/

Could someone help me? thank you very much

[kriskl]

Great! thanks for the update netweb.

I hope Buddypress forums to bbpress plugin is ‘next’ importer in the works 🙂

[SlimTrigger]

Thank you very much! I will get going on this right away

[Stephen Edgar]

No, you do not need BuddyPress installed.

Is the bbPress plugin activated on your plugins settings? (if it is deactivate it and reactivate it)

There are three new menu items on your WordPress navigation menu. These are:

Forums – create and manage your forum.

Topics – topics are created within forums, they are the issues that are being discussed.

Replies – replies are made to topics, this is the actual discussion.

You should be able to see your forums at http://yourdomain.com/forums/

You can also create a standard WordPress page and add a shortcode eg. [bbp-forum-index] (This will Show your entire forum index) to the page content.

You can then add either to any of your main WordPress menus for easy navigation.

netweb, thanks for your reply. I had previously looked at the bbpress getting started page, but did go back again per your suggestion. Unfortunately, I am unable to apply anything past the installation. I did not install BuddyPress – do you have to install BuddyPress in order to get bbpress to work?

When I go to my WordPress dashboard “Pages/All Pages” there is no sign of any forum page – I suspect that this is probably closely related to my problem, which is that I don’t have any idea how to “connect” bbPress forum pages to my WordPress blog (e.g. for hyperlinks). I am assuming that the primary purpose of creating bbPress was to make it function effectively and somewhat seamlessly with WordPress – but I can’t find anything that tells me what the developers have in mind for that?

Thanks for your help and advice

[Stephen Edgar]

bbPress does allow shortcodes for security reasons, you should look at something like https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress2-shortcode-whitelist/

To order your replies in reverse order add the following code to your themes functions.php file.

[Stephen Edgar]

Glad its working for you.

It does not have to be a bug by either developer and is most likely just a conflict between the plugins, I would go ask to authors of the wordbooker plugin if they could have a look at bbPress and see if they can offer a fix/solution and/or implement bbPress support.

[raskall]

Bingo! as soon as you said “conflicting” I knew it was the wordbooker plugin. Wordbooker integrates wordpress with Facebook.

But that for sure has to be a bug. Is it bbpress bug or Wordbookers bug? I don’t want to compromise between those two but if I have to choose I choose to have a forum.

[Stephen Edgar]

Something is conflicting…. Try disabling all your plugins except bbPress and see if it works
