It as a reply in a recent conversation. I just upgrade and see it missing. I tried to repair, nothing changes. Now I can see it’s status “Mismatch”

[matiasgt]

For spanish use:

https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/bbpress/plugin/es/default

and after donwload the archives rename them as follow:

Now i have my forum working in spanish

Add the ‘bbPRess Recent Topics’ widget to a sidebar

https://codex.bbpress.org/widgets/

Or use the [bbp-topic-index] shorcode

https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/

[Stephen Edgar]

Make a static page and as you have the ‘members’ plugin you should see ‘Content Permissions’ available so protect it using that.

[Starejosel]

Thank you for the advice; as I want registered users to see the private forums, and public users to see only the others, I need a way to restrict the text widget for the private forum–is that possible?

Thanks!

I want to show latest threads from our bbpress installation in the first forum on our homepage http://www.3xwrestling.com/new in a widget if possible and also on http://www.3xwrestling.com/new/3xw-interact/

Can someone please help me on how I do that integration between wordpress and bbpress.

[Stephen Edgar]

bbPress 2.1 includes a conversion tool to import forums/topics/replies/users from some of the popular forum packages eg. bbPress or phpBB

There is an ‘example’ file also included as a ‘reference template’ that if Mingle is using a SQL database then you could easily modify this to be a custom importer by matching the correct database tables/fields etc

The file is called ‘example.php’ and is located in /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-admin/converters

If you look at converting Mingle it would be great if contributed this back to bbPress for other Mingle users https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/

1. See the ‘Getting Started’ on Public, Private & Hidden forums

https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started-with-bbpress/#getting-to-know-bbpress

2. See ‘Theme Compatibilty’

https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/

[Stephen Edgar]

You can use ‘shortcodes’ on your WP pages

https://codex.bbpress.org/shortcodes/

[Stephen Edgar]

Here is something to start with on 2.1 themes.

https://codex.bbpress.org/theme-compatibility/

[Stephen Edgar]

There will be an update released in the not to distant future addressing these 2.1 bugs.

The visibility of forums is/should be at the moment:

Public – Anyone can see these forums

Private: Only logged in registered users can see these forums

Hidden: Only Moderators/Admins can see these forums

As for a work around, I would suggest a static page or text widget with links to the forums you want publicly listed

This might be a theme issue, not certain. I am using Rockettheme’s Tachyon Buddypress theme which requires the Gantry Buddypress plugin to work seamlessly. I am working in MAMP Pro and have the memory jacked up to 256MB.

With bbpress 2.0.3, my Buddypress pages are displaying correctly. But, with the 2.1 and 2.1-rc4 update installed, the Buddypress pages display without the theme’s CSS. Just basic hyperlinks on a white background.

I return to bbpress 2.0.3, and things work well. Any suggestions?

Currently bbPress has the URL structure that is has that is that, you are indeed welcome to write a plugin or contribute to the code base as JJJ wrote above to implement other URL options for bbPress.

[Starejosel]

Actually, I believe that anyone who’s role can read private forums can see the list. I have used the members plugin to modify the author role to allow reading private forums, private topics, and private pages, and they certainly can see the list.

Since this is now an official bug, what should I do? I am a newbie and have no experience–do I just wait, or will it be a long time, so that I should try to cook up a work around, e.g., with a static page that has the forums listed by hand.

All advice would be much appreciated.

Thank you,

Martin

Confirmed Bug https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1891

[Siobhan]

I’ve added this info to the codex: https://codex.bbpress.org/getting-started-with-bbpress/#creating-your-first-forum

Does that make it any clearer ken?

[mcla345pau]

Thanks to the all adviser for their advise because i can start my bbPress loop which i could not before.

[presspressperson]

@Lynq:

In the example you came up with, you seem to have come up with your own structure. As far as I can tell, Bbpress’ structure is Forums > Topics > Posts.

So the current hierarchy eliminates the possibility of the duplicate URL in your example. If you had a forum “General Chat” and two separate topics called “chat” they’d have to be in separate forums.

EXAMPLE:

Preferred:

http://www.domain.com/general-chat/topic-one/chat

http://www.domain.com/general-chat/topic-two/chat

Current:

1. http://www.domain.com/forums

changes to

2. http://www.domain.com/forums/forum/general-chat/

when you click a forum, and then changes to

3. http://www.domain.com/forums/topic/topic-one

@Mr Jacoby:

I appreciate your response, and I’ve seen some very helpful posts by you in these forums. Thanks. In this instance, however, are missing our point. In my example above, you can see that the URLs look nothing like wordpress permalinks. End users (and our visitors) are not concerned with how the back end might be similar. We only see that the URLs look silly and lack continuity (specifically switching from forums to forum to topic). They do not reflect the simple forum > topic > post hierarchy. When I said ‘useless,’ I was, of course, speaking in terms of end users and our visitors. I get that bbpress developers use it. I also get that it’d be possible to change (especially since wordpress is already doing what we want).

If wordpress URLs looked like bbpress URLs, I suspect they’d look something like:

http://www.domain.com/pages/page/page-one OR

http://www.domain.com/posts/post/post-one OR

http://www.domain.com/page/page-one

My guess is that this isn’t something that’s going to be possible with bbpress’ plugin unless someone develops it on the side (as you suggested), but please try to at least understand our inquiry instead of pretending like we simply don’t know what we’re talking about.

If anyone has any helpful hints on where one might get started on changing the url structure, it would be greatly appreciated. I see this being an issue that many, many more wordpress users will seek a solution for.

For SEO, and for advertising purposes, it’s much better to remove unnecessary /word/words/more-words-that-dont-help-identify-page-content/ from URLs.

I’m assuming the OP is referring to the changes made by the theme packages setting that’s new in 2.1. I’m having some issues with that as well…

What is the recommended method of theming bbpress 2.1?

[comerecommended]

Found this, which might be helpful to you! http://labsecrets.com/2012/01/23/buddypress-and-bbpress-forums-made-easy/

[chuckingit]

Awesome and Thank You — not sure how i missed that attribute but kudos for pointing that out … once i set them 0->13 indeed, they appear beautifully ordered :>)

[ayeweb]

The new registered can’t create a new topic with url wp-admin/post-new.php?post_type=topic

Help me please?

wordpress=latest version

bbpress=latest version

[gundamking]

I’m having a problem with my 2.1 themeing since updating. In my custom archive-forum.php a call to <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[bbp-topic-index]‘);?> Is returning the error Fatal error: Call to undefined method stdClass::have_posts() in /wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-forum-template.php on line 109 .

Any idea what this could be?

[Starejosel]

P.S. The old behavior was perfect.

[Efimia]

I am using a themeforest theme with BBpress integrated.

Previously it was working perfectly fine but since I updated to the last version it doesn’t anymore. The theme automatically updated the style and color to match the forum to the website.

However since I made that update I have got 2 problems.

If I choose the layout theme COMBAT it’s all grey and takes up 2 lines instead of one.

If I choose the layout theme TWENTY ONE it looks like it should be however it is not well aligned on the website. It’s takes the full width of the browser and everything is all messed up and everywhere in the page.

Please how can I fix it?
