What happened to tartarus.co.nz? where has it gone?

[John James Jacoby]

You’re welcome. Look forward to seeing your codex page. 🙂

[John James Jacoby]

Since the admin area has a settings API that it uses, compared to bbPress which currently uses customized templates, you’ll have to do some developer work to integrate them. Until bbPress has API’s for theme-side fields, this will likely be a one-off solution for your specific use-case.

[davidkooo]

thank you, that solved my problem.

[John James Jacoby]

No idea what royal_login() is, but it’s not related to bbPress.

[John James Jacoby]

I’d advise against reverting back. Instead, in your theme’s functions.php, put…

$GLOBALS['bbp'] = bbpress();

[John James Jacoby]

Some plugin is not filtering queries correctly, and is intercepting bbPress’s query and breaking it. Try deactivating plugins and seeing which one isn’t playing nicely.

[John James Jacoby]

I’m a little confused by what netweb is telling you to do. The bbPress Moderation plugin is actually the thing that ENABLES the behaviour you’re experiencing. Without that plugin, your users should be allowed to create topics and replies on their own without any intervention from you or anyone else.

Deactivate the bbPress Moderation plugin, deactivate bbPress, activate bbPress. That should reset all of bbPress’s role and capability mapping, in the event something is broken.

[John James Jacoby]

There is documentation, at codex.bbpress.org. It’s a wiki, so you’re free to teach yourself how bbPress works, and contribute your knowledge upstream so others can learn from you.

That said, what you want to do is as easy as making a bbpress.php template in the root of your theme. It will act as the wrapper for all bbPress content.

[John James Jacoby]

Files in the /extras/ folder are not actually used by bbPress’s theme compatibility, and are only there as extra root level templates for people that want to make their own themes.

Most likely it’s using your page.php as a wrapper, and pulling in the template parts in /bbp-theme-compat/bbpress/user-…

[John James Jacoby]

That’s annoying. Replace that call with bbp_get_forum_parent_id().

[John James Jacoby]

Deactivate bbPress, and activate it again. It sounds like something is preventing roles and capabilities from working correctly. Are you using some kind of plugin to privatize your site?

[davidkooo]

no that helps only for forum index, other pages are with sidebar.

documentation would be great. Because I dont know how one should understand this plugin without anything…

Or maybe one switch in administraton, like: “Use this freaking page template for whole forums” would be great.

A link to your site would help so we can see your setup.

bbPRess will work with ‘most’ themes though it would appear that both bbPress and the ‘Origin’ theme are having conflicts with the ‘breadcrumbs’.

Can you contact the theme author to have a look at resolving the conflict with the theme for bbPress?

[davidkooo]

thank you

If you could give us a link to your site we can have a look.

Can you create a ticket with replication steps and the expected behavior https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/newticket

[Stephen Edgar]

Any fixes for known issue have all been released with bbPress 2.1.2

Why arnt you running the latest versions WordPress, BuddyPress and bbPress?

[Stephen Edgar]

Will this do what you want it to?

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpressmoderation/

[Stephen Edgar]

The behavior you are seeing is by design what the ‘bbPress Moderation’ plugin

From https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpressmoderation/

> “To help reduce spam in bbPress forums, this plugin will change the
> status of new topics and replies to ‘pending’. Any pending
> topics/replies will be shown as ‘Awaiting Moderation’ until the
> administrator approves publishes them.”

Or did you install this plugin to try and resolve the issue but with the plugin disabled you are still seeing this behavior?

What happens when you disable all other plugins on your WordPress install?

[Stephen Edgar]

Do you still see the same theme behavior if you switch ‘theme packages’

https://codex.bbpress.org/forums-settings/#theme-packages

[Stephen Edgar]

bbpress.org is using a customized theme of bbPress 2.1 to showcase the features available, at this time it is not available for download though.

[Stephen Edgar]

Another user is also having problems with ‘CheerApp’ and are waiting for the developer to update the theme. You see those issues here:

Can't view or post to forums after 2.1 update

The specific issue you are having is listed by someone else in the comments section (and a workaround) here:

http://themeforest.net/item/cheerapp-app-wordpress-bbpress-theme/discussion/2007363?page=7

I would suggest you contact the author of theme also to see when an update will be available as no doubt that would be the best route to take.

[Stephen Edgar]

I’m not quite following you… What are you using to do this in WordPress and how do you want to do this in bbPress? Posting some links to screenshots would help a great a deal.
