Hi please help.
I’m using the latest bbpress plugin on a multisite.
If I go to the user profile page, eg. http://example.com/forum/users/username, there is an edit link next to the profile but only Super-Admins can click on this link and edit their profile from the frontend. If they are not super-admins then the page refreshes to the same page without offering the editing functions.
How can I allow subscribers etc to edit their profile page?
Thank you.
I just spent about 8 frustrating hours failing to accomplish a very basic task with bbpress.
I want my forums & their descriptions grouped grouped by category on the index page. A long jumble of forums on different topics, only ever displayed in “most recently updated” order, or alternatively without displaying the forum descriptions, is totally unusable. I don’t want people to have to hunt through subpages to find which forum is correct to post in for an issue.
I just want an index page that shows ALL the information: Forum titles, Categories, and Descriptions, for all forums, on a page. In some sort of order that isn’t going to leave the users scratching their heads as to where to find what they want. Is that really too advanced to expect bb software to do?
Some sort of organization, on the index page, or at least headings, is really a basic feature of, uh, every single forum I’ve ever seen. Organizing information into sensible sections been a fundamental part of information design since… the printing press? The written word? Hieroglyphics? I don’t know. But bbpress’s index page is an unfriendly, unusable mess, and the only feature you provide for grouping forums makes the situation worse, not better.
I went with a plugin based solution because I didn’t want to sit and code a solution myself. After spending all day on this problem, I am aware that there are complicated, far-over-my-head solutions which may or may not work, telling me I must do things I don’t understand, and which sound to me like they may be wiped out and need to be re-entered every time a theme or plugin is updated.
I can’t put any more time into this simple need. We have multiple users in my group who are going to be able to create new categories and forums, and it needs to _just_work_ , and display an index that makes sense to users, without hours upon hours of troubleshooting and administration.
k, I switched to twentyeleven theme and disabled all my plugins except bbpress and jwplayer for wordpress. I verified the div of the bbpress content box with firefox inspect element and put extra code in my functions.php to compensate for missed div tag code in the functions.php. here is what i put on top on functions.php as an injected php script within functions.php
<?php
add_action( ‘bbp_reply_content’, ‘do_shortcode’);
add_action( ‘entry_content’, ‘do_shortcode’);
add_action( ‘bbp-reply-content’, ‘do_shortcode’);
add_action( ‘entry-content’, ‘do_shortcode’);
?>
<?php
/**
* slidingdoor functions and definitions
blah blah blah php blah blah blah
then also a double attack at the end of fuctions.php is here
}
endif;
add_action( ‘bbp_reply_content’, ‘do_shortcode’);
add_action( ‘entry_content’, ‘do_shortcode’);
add_action( ‘bbp-reply-content’, ‘do_shortcode’);
add_action( ‘entry-content’, ‘do_shortcode’);
—funtions.php ends here–
-I see other plugins intereacting fine with short codes ie [video] in my bbpress forum but not [jwplayer] can i attach this in css ?
-Is there a very messy way to go about this and edit every file in my bbpress plugin folder?
-Am i better off installing bbpress as stand alone instead of plugin?
-I’m I going about creating a media based user interactive site the wrong way when choosing wordpress w/ bbpress?
I’ve literally spent 90% of my time just trying to get what I want to work and edit it so its all tight. This issue is a brick wall and everything is stopped until this issue is resolved. So really am i just going nuts trying to reinvent the wheel?
Thanks guys…..
The fix it for payment offer always stands until its fixed. That goes for everyone not you Jared
But feel free lol
Thanks for your response.
At the moment I think I need to create a ‘child theme’ of the bbpress so that any changes will not be affected by a future update – after which, it is time to play with the css. How? I’m not quite sure (yet).
