Hi, we have a site that is public. We also have a forum for registered members only that we’d like hidden from the public, but obviously accessible only when members are logged in. From what I’ve researched online, there are no active plugins that enable the “hidden forums” option in bbpress to actually work.

Has anyone found a workaround? If not, does this mean the hidden function is broken and the only option we have for the forum is to make it public?

Thanks!!

Hello.

In my bbPress forum the username and IP is standing right for the avatar, and I want it to stand over it.

Is that possible on an easy way?

Here is an screenshot of the problem:

And here is how I want it to be:

Hi, when I installed my Site Wide forum I saw this, “■Place the ‘bbpress’ folder in your ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ directory.”

But, have no idea how to ■Place the ‘bbpress’ folder in your ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ directory. Any advice?

I was using Human Test for 8 months on a standalone 1.0.2 forum and it worked fine for our small population (100 members). This week it suddenly stopped working and wouldn’t let anyone register.

I tried to post a comment over in the bbpress Plugin Browser forum in the Human Test section, but I can’t post any comments over there, for some reason, despite being logged in.

So I turned on Akismet which claimed it blocked 24 spams the first night, and counted 9 Hams. What the heck is Ham? And there appears to be no way to review the spams to check for false positives?

Plus, I got 60 new registrants in 8 hours, and Akismet appears to do nothing to mark the spammers. Their web site is kinda skimpy on bbpress details, though I have sent a message to Tech Support.

I don’t have an associated blog.

Will upgrading to bbpress 2 make the spam situation any better?

I only have bbpress 2.0 installed with a handful of other plugins. I do not have BuddyPress installed. User profiles are only ‘visible’ for users who have published a blog post.

[wantei]

My forums keeps messing up when I include both BuddyPress and bbPress how can i fix this at my website http://wanani.me ?? Please help me out!

[NickMackz]

Is there a way to let normal users post images on bbPress 2.1? Just discovered only admins can use <img> tags in replies.

[Sniper Kitten]

Are you using BuddyPress? Or you just install bbPress?

[Dave953]

I’m building a site focused around bbpress 2.x. My users don’t Blog.

When users click on Avatars or the User name in the forums they have been getting “Page Not Found”, EXCEPT for the Admin. And from further testing, I’ve concluded that unless a user makes a Blog post, their Activity Profiles cannot be found.

This maybe old news, or just due to the way this Newbie put the site together, but my search of the bbpress forums only turned up requests for help with this problem, but no answers.

If there is another solution to making forum users Activity Profiles ‘visible’, I’d appreciate learning how to do so.

Hi Guys,

I need help resolving small issue that I have with my installation and I am ready to pay for the time of whoever knows (or can find out) the answer.

To see the problem go: http://www.ibikiniwax.com/forum/topic/jannet and scroll to the bottom of page.

<b>The replies show at below the reply box.</b>

I run bbpress plugin 2.0.2 on one of Template Monster premium themes. WordPress 3.3.2.

I did not do any modifications to bbpress themes (To be honest, I don’t quite understand it) I just installed the plugin, activated it, setup and voila – everything works but this one issue. I suppose it uses the themes css – I like the simplicity of it and I’d rather keep it this way.

So there you go. Please help. Let me know your price before hand. If you feel more comfortable, we can do it through freelancer of elance.

Thanks

Hi Sam,

I had a hard time looking for the archive-forums.php, until I found it in the bbp-twentyten theme folder in bbp-themes folder. From my understanding I’m not using this theme for bbPress (or am I?)

I made the changes as you described and nothing takes effect. I’ve tried moving about the archive-forums.php into different areas, my main theme folder, the bbPress includes folder and others to see if I could find the right spot it needed to be in order to be called, but without luck.

Where do I need to place this file in order to have it activated or used by bbPress?

I also tried creating a new ‘theme’ for bbPress following the direction here.. https://codex.bbpress.org/legacy/themes-and-templating/

But it seems to call in my bbPress theme into my main WordPress theme area, and I don’t want to change th WP theme, I just want bbPress to use this file to generate it’s <h1> Title.

Any help would be awesome. Thanks for your time!

[Andrew]

Hey Jobjorn,

I’m still pretty green with bbPress but I think you could make a plugin to modify that base page title. I think the function you may want is this..

function bbp_get_forum_archive_title( $title = '' ) {

global $bbp;



// If no title was passed

if ( empty( $title ) ) {



// Set root text to page title

if ( $page = bbp_get_page_by_path( $bbp->root_slug ) ) {

$title = get_the_title( $page->ID );



// Default to forum post type name label

} else {

$fto    = get_post_type_object( bbp_get_forum_post_type() );

$title  = $fto->labels->name;

}

}



return apply_filters( 'bbp_get_forum_archive_title', $title );

}

It’s located in the bbp-forum-template.php

Hello,

I’m using the bbPress login widget to serve as our site’s login form. The only issue (because otherwise, it’s damn near perfect) is that upon logging in, it redirects the user to the last page they visited.

Is that, eh, fixable?

[tate83]

Hi

Love the plugin. But are the phpBB image/URL trouble’s going to be resolved somewhen? There isn’t much acitivity any more..

Cheers

Tate

[tate83]

Did you fix this?

Still get this error..

[Ash Shaw]

Hi

We have activated the BBpress plugin and configured forums on three of our demo sites, but when we attempt to add a new topic in the front end, it displays the following error message:

ERROR: Forum ID is missing.

Here is a link to one the sites’ forum landing pages:

http://thestandard.feedmydemo.co.za/forums/

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

[spiritfly]

I can’t believe this still haven’t been resolved. What is going on with the bbpress community? This is a must have. It should be the forums default looks.

I have tried playing with it, but I still don’t understand what really is going on.

Can someone who made these kind of subcategories post the changes he made?

Thanks

[russwittmann]

I have installed bbpress and have a slight issue with my theme see forum here http://www.santansilverbacks.com/support-forums/ , notice the header title is the last forum access, i would like to make it the title Support forums is this possible?

If so could you steer me in the right direction?

Thank You

Hi

I had somebody ask me if it’s possible to make the text box larger on my forum (http://ovcboards.net) but wasn’t even sure where bbpress pulls that information from to edit it. Any idea?

Thanks!

[Alfahad Khan]

Thanks for replying, Changing my theme to TwentyTen/Eleven fixes it. But i want to use my existing theme. What should i do

[dannyjimmy]

Gadzooks! It seems to me that’s critically important I can’t really use bbpress until something like this comes along

Help?

[Jared Atchison]

It’s likely something with your theme. Try activating TwentyTen/Eleven and see if that fixes it.

[Jared Atchison]

The default access bbPress gives should be fine.
