I am using an eleganttheme.com theme with buddypress and of course, bbpress. Everytime we start a new topic, I can’t see the initial post as a user or even the creator of the topic, I can only see it as an admin. If I click reply (w/o being able to see the initial post) I can see that reply, and any replies going forward. But the initial post won’t display, even if I post it as an admin. I have no idea why this is the case. Can someone please help me out?

Hello,

I went to : http://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/plugin
Lots of language translation files are available and I was able to download them successfully.
Unfortunately for some languages, the current validators are not validating anything, leaving bbpress dead for these languages.
The bad thing is that there is no way to download older versions of the translation files, which could still work for 90% of the strings.

Please correct me if i’m wrong.

A solution would be to have a separate store on bbpress.org where the latest validated translation files are available. Even outdated translations would be better than nothing.

The situation is pretty bad, for example at the moment we can’t have a forum in the french language.

WP 3.4.1 bbPress 2.1.2 http://members.thenourishedcommunity.com/ I’m looking for a way to have bbpress/forums be a first level menu item without generating a custom link menu item. The site I’m working on is running Wishlist and Wishlist doesn’t want to recognize the custom linked menu item for forums. Because of that I cannot protect the forums from non-members.

Found Phillips’ brilliant code awhile back. I changed it a little bit for more control:

function lab_logged_in_bbptopics($have_posts){
if (!bbp_current_user_can_publish_forums()){
$have_posts = null;
}
return $have_posts;
}
add_filter(‘bbp_has_topics’, ‘lab_logged_in_bbptopics’);
add_filter(‘bbp_has_forums’, ‘lab_logged_in_bbptopics’);
add_filter(‘bbp_has_replies’, ‘lab_logged_in_bbptopics’);

You can then use any of the user role plugins to specify which user (or user level) can publish forums. Of course, logged out users don’t have a bbp_current_user_can_publish_forums() set so they’ll automatically be denied access to the forums. Hope you enjoy!

Also, I changed the “Oh bother! …” text in bbpress/feedback-no-forums.php to say “You have to be logged in and have permission to see the forums.”

Hope this helps someone. And, thank you Philip for sharing your code to begin with! It certainly helped me a lot.

Hi,

Running with WP3.4.1 and bbPress 2.1.2

Even though in bbPress settings ‘Allow users to mark topics as favorites’ and ‘Allow users to subscribe to topics’ are checked I am not seeing Add this topic to favorites or Subscribe links on the topic pages.

Am I missing a trick or what should I investigate for these to show?

Thanks.

[mluther]

Never mind. I reloaded the page and I see the forum now. I guess bbPress just needed some time.

WordPress: Version 3.4.1
bbPress: Version 2.1.2

Hello, I searched for bbPress in the plugin directory and installed it. I proceeded to create one Forum and one Topic.
After publishing them, I clicked on “View Topic”, but I get

Please help.

Since this topic was posted in Requests and Feedback, I’ll post my request here (I can’t tell if it’s covered in the trac). Will 2.2 become the default version used by Buddypress Groups and will the plugin GD bbPress Attachments (as it is with 2.1 site wide) be compatible with it? If not, this would be my request. Thanks!

Till this get rectified, my project is stuck at STONEHEDGE!. You know where is it?

Hi everyone! I’m using the fancy “new” TinyMCE box to post comments in the forums, but I have a site with black background, so the box where you write the comment is black too, but the letters are grey (WordPress default). If I try to change the CSS style, It changes the default TinyMCE box, so if I make the text white, I will have white text in WordPress’s “Write a new article” box too.

Is there any way to change the letters colors of the TinyMCE ONLY to use it in bbPress comments box? I would appreciate a detailed explaination ’cause I’m a little noob with WP and BBP.

you can insert bbpress site-wide forum with disabling buddypress group forum.

I have the same problem, too.

Just found that in theme/bbpress there are user-details.php,user-favorite.php, user-subscriptions.php, user-topic-created.php.

Can’t find something like user-topics-replied-to.php. Maybe user-topics-replied-to is not implemented yet.

@shineonscotland Do you have a page created called ‘forums’? the reason I ask this is that http://causeblogs.org/topics/ appears to work fine and the http://causeblogs.org/forums/ should display in the same manner.

Also, I see that you have the bbPress Visual Hooks, great plugin from @jaredatch

For custom bbPress theme design and integration (Standalone version only for now) – you can contact me at http://pomypress.com or can ask me on twitter @pomy

Thanks!

No?

One of my users is having the exact same problem, except it’s only one of my users, everyone else is fine. My forums have been running for over a month with no problems, but suddenly this user can’t publish posts without me approving it in dashboard. It becomes marked as “Pending Review”. The only thing that sets her account apart is the number of edits she makes is much higher than anyone else, because she opens a news topic and frequently updates the opening post with new information.

EDIT: I am using bbPress 2.1

[newpress]

I am concerned about more tiny tissues

Pagination doesnt work properly (bbpress wordpress plugin)

[Durelle]

I meat all the requirements, now just out of curiosity the bbpress plugin doesnt use mod rewrites right away does it? cause i have a existing folder called “forums” but i dont think thats causing the issue.

I am trying to install BuddyPress and BBPress. I install BuddyPress just fine. Then, since many posts on this forum said not to install BBPress “through” BuddyPress, I downloaded BBPress from this site (the most recent version), uploaded it to my FTP and then activated the plugin through WordPress. The moment I click ACTIVATE bbpress, the site breaks. I get the following error page when I try to go to ANY page of my site…

> The website encountered an error while retrieving
> http://www.mysite.com/wp-admin/plugins.php. It may be down for
> maintenance or configured incorrectly.

I can get my site back online by logging into FTP and renaming the pluging folder for bbpress (so WordPress can’t find the plugin). However, I would like to get the forum working on my site. Please help.

I’m using the most recent version of WordPress and the plugins…

• WordPress Version: 3.4.1
• Buddy Press Version: 1.6
• BBPress Version: 2.1.2

[davidkooo]

well I found another plugin https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/user-role-editor/installation/

and now it works as I wanted 🙂

Thank you.

OK so I totally spaced and replied on the thread above with this reply first instead of here. Sorry!

Thanks for the thread netweb my concern is definitely performance number one. But point well taken optimization is always first and foremost no matter what size the site is.

I had to ask because there are so many articles and threads on how to accomplish the multi-login scenario none of them are without issues. I’m really not looking to complicate or increase my workload.

You made some real valid points and have helped narrow down my decision making a whole bunch. I have found that keeping things as simple as we can really works out for the best in the long run in most cases.

Rock on with the bbpress project, I love my phpbb, been using them for 10 years. It’s time to try something new. I do like its simplicity and it’s come a long way from almost a year ago when I looked at it.

Thanks for your time and help
