I’d also like an easy way to remove this feature.

Hi

This topic is posted on 2 places :

– bbpress.org forum

– premium.wpmudev.org community support forum

While working on a site to be launched on the same day (= I had to have it working

I discovered something interesting

BBpress second level forum (= with a parent forum/category) also in the permalink, will result in page not found.

I searched for this issue and came across a few topics, where it was advised to reapply the permalinks, then save again the BBpress settings, where we set the slugs.

I tried everything there and still the same issue, but it was clearly an issue with rewrite.

So I begun to deactivate every other plugin I have and after every deactivation I tried if second level forums were loading. I thought specifically about security plugins such as Wordfence, Better WPSecurity, but nope.

Finally, it was when ******I deactivated wpmudev’s Pro Sites plugin, that the second level forums were loading.*******

I tried another forum plugin but really I will need BBPress (big amount of subforums necessary on this website)

now I made some tests, and to make short :

– if Pro Sites activated :

-> 1st level forum will work

-> 2nd level forum will not work

– if Pro Sites is deactivated :

-> 1st level forum will work

-> 2nd level forum will work and can be reached with those 2 url

A: example.com/forums/forum/level1/level2

B: example.com/forums/forum/level2

(forums/forum beeing the slugs set in Forums settings page)

is it normal we can reach with 2 different permalinks?

***** and as it changes automatically, is there a way to force (in BBPress code) a subforum permalink to stay 1st level even if in a sublevel? would be interesting also in the case a forum is moved to another category then it wouldn’t change url ***** (and at the same time it would solve/hide the issue with Pro Sites)

so cleary this is a rewrite stuff that goes beyond my knowledge, for info my permalinks are set to the second option /2012/06/07/exemple-article/ and .htaccess present with necessary change in it

I use also buddypress on that site but didn’t go until desactivate it as it worked when I deactivated Pro Site,

the site I was working on has buddypress, but not the groups and forum elements checked, forum beeing BBpress anyway (I also tried to check/uncheck forums in buddypress settings, really not related to the issue)

so I was thinking to install a testsite with only vanilla WP Multisite and buddypress, as I need all my tests done that way

+ for this issue : Pro Sites and BBPress

so if there is anything you tell me to try, it will be done

thank you very much in advance (anybody, eveybody

This is probably a stupid question, but I can’t figure it out.

What is the proper way to post php and html code into a bbpress 2.0 forum post? I tried using < code > but when posting some html, it’s not displayed, tried using the little like on wordpress.org but that didn’t work either.

[iamfantastikate]

Thanks for your comments.

I’m assuming you had a backup copy of your stylesheet? Either way, it should only have header info in at the point of copying things over. I’ve made the tutorial clearer about that, though.

I never bother with screenshots for themes I’m making for myself, but I’m sure others do. I figured I’d leave that up to the user, but I’ve added a sentence about that.

[BobHatcher]

As I found out the hard way, when you just dump all the bbpress theme files into your child theme – as you recommend in step 6 – you overwrite your style.css. So, my modification to your fine tutorial is to delete or rename the style.css in the bbpress directory before dumping them in. Same goes for screenshot.jpg because if you don’t rename it, you will get a screenshot of twentyten or twentyeleven when you go to the Themes area of your dashboard.

Thank you! worked for me.

Hi John!

I followed several walthroughs like trying to refresh permalinks and re-saving bbPress settings, with no luck! :'(

Any ideas?

Thanks

[m00nbeam360]

Sorry if this is a repeat, but might you have an idea how to make a bbPress Forum Plug-in mobile? Whenever we try to load the forum table on the iPhone, the formatting is all wacky. Is there another plug-in that might work or something? Thanks for your help.

[eric_holmes]

I am currently running 2.0.2 of bbPress.

Is the fix only one line, as displayed in the attachment on this ticket?

Because if that’s the case, it certainly did not fix the issue. lol

[John James Jacoby]

Try visiting your permalinks page, and saving them. Sometimes they need a refresh after bbPress is installed.

[Jared Atchison]

What version are you running?

I believe this is fixed in the upcoming bbPress 2.1

https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1645

If you don’t have anything in your forums yet I’d give 2.1 a try and see if that fixes it.

[Jared Atchison]

Try (you need to do this quickly and temporarily since it is a live site) setting wp_debug to true (in the wp-config) and then activating bbPress.

wp_debug will force any erros that are happening under the hood to surface. At least then you can use it to track down what is going wrong.

[squalesblog]

Hi!

I am encountering issues with a fresh install of bbPress 2.0 plugin:

http://squales.high-bridge.fr/forums shows 404 error.

Plugin settings are all by default. My permalinks settings are default : (i.e.: http://squales.high-bridge.fr/?p=123)

I created a page with the shortcode [bbp-forum-index] linked in my nav bar.

Forums show OK, but bbPress navigation link “Forums” shows a blank page.

Any help would be appreciated

Many thanks in advance!!

[operative_me]

Ah yeah, sorry, it’s a live site. http://prosportschick.com

I tried setting the theme back to stock, and had no other plugins running. In general the only ones we use are jetpack and discus, so I’m not concerned about running out of headroom on from our web host (though I suppose that’s a possibility).

I don’t know. Typically speaking I know precisely enough to get myself into trouble, and I’m worried about breaking off more than I can chew.

I was able to install simplepress without similar issues, but I’m not in the mood to pay that much for support.

Hello Everyone,

We have a WordPress install on our internal server. Let’s say this is the address:

http://192.168.0.5/wordpress/

When either logging in, or out, it duplicates the subfolder in the web address to this:

http://192.168.0.5/wordpress/wordpress/wp-admin/options-general.php?settings-updated=true

I have double checked the URIs in General settings, both are correctly set to http://192.168.0.5/wordpress/. All page navigation works fine.

I have confirmed that this is a plugin issue, because I disabled bbPress, and the login redirection works fine. There must be something wrong with the login redirection script that is duplicating the subfolders.

Any idea of whether this only affects localhost servers, or if it will prove to cause problems when hosted on a live site?

Thanks in advance

[Jared Atchison]

Hmm, that’s weird. Usually when that happens there is a plugin or theme causing it.

First temporarily switch the theme to TwentyTen (or Eleven) and activate bbP to see if that fixes it.

If not you have two other options to try and find the culprit. You can start deactivating plugins one by one or use WP_DEBUG to tell you where the problem is coming from (wasn’t sure if this is a live site or not).

{A note of my research work while trying to build a template for use with Thesis.}

So just for the record, if you want to have a full standalone theme which won’t use any of the default templates of bbPress then you need to have at least one template for each of the sections below. Should be about 10 templates if I did the math right.

//Single User Edit

I’m just doing this as a favor to a friend, but there’s some problems with adding bbpress. I have tried FTPing the files up and installing using the built-in wordpress installation process, to no avail. In both instances, adding BBpress makes the entire front page of the website blank. It’s a pretty frustrating process. Uninstalling fixes the problem with no information lost.

I should note that this is a multi-site install, and I’m trying to install it only on a single site within that network (the idea being to have only a single forum common to all the sub-sites).

[wpmhweb]

John thanks for your reply!

[redrudolf]

Thank you for this awesome tutorial!

[Lynq]

if ( bbp_has_topics( array( 'post_parent' => $postmeta["forum_id"] ) ) )

bbp_get_template_part( 'bbpress/loop', 'topics' );

You see the part about $postmeta["forum_id"] you need to grab the post meta data with <?php $meta_values = get_post_meta($post_id, $key, $single); ?>

https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/get_post_meta

Then once you have all the post meta data in an array you can grab the forum ID and put it in the arguments.

I’ve followed bbPress’ development off and on since it first came out (aww, when it was a wee thing). It’s made many, many functional improvements since (good job, everyone!), but it’s lacking in the documentation department, and documentation is what has always made WordPress so great and accessible. For bbPress to really become a part of WordPress, even just as a plugin, the documentation needs to be better.

After so many years in development, I expected there to be more documentation when I gave bbPress a try this time around. Instead, there was a lot of teeth grinding and guesswork on my part, mainly because there’s so much conflicting information about how things work, not to mention all the old information that’s no longer relevant. But I did figure it out (screenshot of my work to prove it!).

I know bbPress 2.1 is in development and (may be) coming out soon with many new bells and whistles in regard to themes, but I feel for anyone struggling to get the current version to work. As such, I wrote some documentation. Which may or may not be placed in the wrong location of the Codex because there were no instructions for it, either, that I could see. (Sorry, admins!)

bbPress is still geared to the web-savvy at the best of times, I’d say, so I didn’t try to go into minute detail with all my instructions; rather, I tried to make it clear what should be done for the current version. I hope it helps someone!

[DarwinsDream]

Isn’t there a way to open only one shortcode to be allowed or apply the jwplayer div attributes to my reply-content attributes. It is a shortcode issue. But merely because the shortcode calls the div

what if i called the div for every reply-content table then if a video was playing it would use the player that was called.

I’m also looking for another solution to use as a user interface and back end for a media sharing site. To completely replace this issue any suggestions? Im’m not leaving bbpress i like it a lot just it’s not working out for soundhampton.com I guess…. Can some one advise me on a solution please?

[DarwinsDream]

Thank you Key Master Wish I was the damn gate keeper cause then i would understand what’s going on here. lmao!!!!

Here is my issue at hand and then I guess I will have to decide whether or not to move forward. I am trying to make a media sharing site that is merely a “forum” of my site ( http://www.soundhampton.com/the_knowledge_forum ) to lead traffic back to my business site ( http://www.soundhampton.com ).

I was going to use bbpress for the forum side but the more I try and implement it the deeper I get into issues that take me months to figure out. Every issue I have been able to handle except this one.

John I totally under stand why shortcodes are not allowed. It makes complete sense. I read up on the security issue post you wrote about from day one of this media player issue and did not take your advice now…. here I am.

To be honest I kind of always knew that even if I did get the shortcodes to work. I would have to make changes in the future to secure my forums from shortcodes.

so, moving forward

Can you guys suggest a proper media sharing community plugin / addition to wordpress I can even point the URL to a different folder. Now Im just rambling.

I have no clue how to build a plugin
