Hi I have a couple of queries I hope you can help with..

I would like to add a widget into my sidebar that displays the content of the last few posts created on any of the forums on the site. The wordpress widgets Latest Posts and Latest Comments don’t work and the existing bbpress ones don’t contain the actual posts. I have read various posts on this and I think I may have to write something myself to do this. However I wanted to check first if there is another way of getting this from bbpress other than creating a new widget?

The other issue is that subscribers cannot embedd pictures into posts but editors/administrators can. I have auto-embedd links ticked. It looks like it could be a permissision thing but I wanted to check if there is anything in bbpress that prevents subscribers from doing this? Thanks 🙂

Thanks… Though this should have already been patched 😉

I just tried the above with the newest wordpress and bbpress available. It does not work 🙁

Does anybody have a solution?

Maybe I should add that I am also experiencing a strange issue with my notification mail setting. When I go to the BBPress Admin settings, I see under “General Settings: Send Mail to”

myadress@mydomain.com if new reply/topic ?  <select id=

When I delete this and just enter my address it'll revert to this string after saving. Maybe this is related?

Hello,

since the update to bbPress 2.1 I get the following PHP error msg, when I am posting a new message. The message is posted and everything is fine, except for this error to pop up:

http://www.mydomain.de/blog/forums/users/auco/
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by 
(output started at /path/to/my/server/domain/blog/wp-content/plugins/
bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-reply-template.php:1012)
in /path/to/my/server/domain/blog/wp-includes/pluggable.php on line 881

I already followed this post from 4 years ago: http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/php-error-messages/ and the relevant informations on codex.wordpress.org. I also made sure I’m running the latest stable PHP5 version.
Of course I’m also running the latest WP and have as few plugins as possible.

But I really can’t figure out how to suppress this message.
Any help is appreciated.

I couldnt find bbpress/bbp_admin/install
can you help me please

[c0cc0bill]

Thanks Netweb.

Here is the screen shot. The “NO TOPIC” at the top right I remember that appeared a year ago with the first versions of bbPress plugin. Then the problem disappeared.
When saved, the connection between topics and reply of origin is lost, of course. .

Sure you can edit from the box, but it is easier for an administrator to do so by wordpress edit post function.

Are you looking for some basic bbPress setup info?

Hi, John thanks for the reply.

I noticed the url for the user in bbPress is support/users/test (support is the forum base) but like the question when clicked the Favorites in bbPress it will take me to the BuddyPress powered 2nd site and show Page Not Found.

Is there a redirect I can do to make users see their bbPress profiles and manage the favorites and subscriptions on the main site.

Will Favorites and topic subscriptions from bbPress be integrated with BuddyPress in 1.6?

Best regards,

[HansRuedi]

Oh sh… I’m using bbpress 2.1.1 with Skeleton Theme

That «Topic Description» (NOT «Forum Description») is part of form-topic.php of that theme (Line 82)!…

[Stephen Edgar]

Try «Forum Description» (Ref: here & here)

[Stephen Edgar]

If you can contact the theme developers to see if they can update the theme that would be the best option.

In the meantime have a look at this thread https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/help-with-reply-display-problem/

[John James Jacoby]

Anything is possible. Right now, you’ll need to custom build something to meet the needs for your install(s). There’s nothing preventing this from happening, but you should know that BuddyPress expects that it’s user profiles are the canonical ones, so you’ll have a bit of customizing to do.

Any help?

Hello,

I just updated my bbpress plugin (Version 2.1.1), I’m using WP 3.4.1. The topic font color become lighter and it’s hard to read. Here’s my forum:

http://www.parttimejob.com.my/forums/forum/announcements/ (and) http://www.parttimejob.com.my/forums/topic/forum-rules/

May I know how can I change the font color back to BLACK? Which file should I edit? Before that, it was ok.

Please help.

Thank you.

Please see https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started-with-bbpress/#creating-your-first-forum and bbPress Forums List Widget unordered listing is seemingly random.

If these do not help could you give us a more detailed description of your forums structure and what order you have them set to with a link to your forums site so we can have a closer look.

[Stephen Edgar]

@galynsky Can you confirm you are using the ‘import forums’ tool or the ‘export’ tool?

Import: WP-Admin -> Tools -> Forums -> ‘Import Forums’ (/wp-admin/tools.php?page=bbp-converter)

Export: WP-Admin -> Tools -> Export

[Stephen Edgar]

@markusbb I am running out of ideas.
Try setting a fresh install of WordPress & bbPress on a different hosting provider or a local LAMP install on your PC and for the import use your webhosts remote SQL address to try the import again. As it will be slower using remote SQL connections lower the queries to eg. row limits = 10 and delay time = 5.

What version of bbPress Standalone are you using? If less than 1.1 can you upgrade to 1.1, does that work? If so does 1.1 -> 2.1 now work?

[Stephen Edgar]

Also have a read of the following thread and try some of the suggestions by JJJ here and here.

Can you try with a clean WordPress install on a different webhost or setup a local environment?

Try the import using the remote SQL server address rather than ‘localhost’

Can you narrow down the if it is an exact post that the importer fails on? eg. Is there some weird strings in the database for topic #xyz that is causing the importer to stop.

[Stephen Edgar]

I would suggest upgrading 1.02 -> 1.1 and then install v2.1.1 of the bbPress plugin and upgrade again checking everything as you go.

Once your old install is fully upgraded go to /wp-admin/export.php and export the Forum/Topics/Replies then /wp-admin/import.php and install the WordPress importer and import that into your other database.

[John James Jacoby]

No, it’s not.

Is it not just a question of adding this widget: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-search-widget/ ?
