jjj is the primary/lead developer for bbPress so he might be able to give you a more specific answer.
Right now there are only 3 remaning tickets for 2.1 (https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/query?status=assigned&status=new&status=reopened&group=status&milestone=2.1) so my guess would be sooner than later.
Do you have an approximate ETA when 2.1 will come out of beta and be officially released as a plugin?
I’m not sure you understand the issue I’m talking about, or perhaps I’ve misunderstood you.
When someone clicks on “Howdy, Name” they are given the option to “Edit their profile”. This takes them to wp-admin rather than their bbPress profile page.
I want to ensure all users except admins are directed to their bbPress profile page.
All that plugin you linked to does is stop users creating content once inside the area I don’t want them to visit at all.
I tired the hard way to edit the DB and keymaster assignment is to #1. I tried the Fix admin access plugin and it still didnt help.
What are the chances that everything will be clean if I reinstall?
There is no reason a user has to access the admin as the profiles can all be edited though front end.
This plugin will also help https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bbpress-no-admin/
There’s a “Zip Archive” link on the bottom of https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/branches/plugin – this will be the latest development version.
Just keep in mind, while 2.1 is general stable, it’s still beta so make a backup of things first!
I’m really wanting to move to 2.1, is there a way to upgrade my WordPress plugin of bbPress to that version?
I’ve set this widget to display 20 topics, but no matter what it only displays 5. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Is there a plugin for this yet, or can anyone confirm if timskii’s code still works? I really would like the bbPress profile to be the only profile non-administrative users can access.
I would also like to know how I can migrate my forum from localhost over to my wordpress site. It’s the 2.02 plugin version of BBPress, and it only has a few categories and topics, but I need to know this information for a presentation I am giving in my class in a few weeks.
As for the themes, I have a heavily modified wordpress theme now, and I can see how to edit the bbpress files manually, but i will try to do it using the showcase at the site above… if it’s possible.
Ok, I think I ran into a snag.
My WordPress/BuddyPress site is HEAVILY modded with plugins. I use a RocketTheme theme that runs off of the Gantry Framework along with Gantry-BuddyPress (which allows BuddyPress to be compatible with the RocketTheme and Gantry Framework.)
The bbPress plugin worked, but only partially. The Forum page set up by bbPress is visible but instead of seeing the “directory” of forums it shows:
Home › Forums Forum Topics Posts Freshness General Discussion SO? what now? 1 1 26 mins Admin
It’s all just plain text with no links. But, the forum I made for General Discussion is viewable when I go to the forum page it made.
For reference, here are the demo page links:
http://bp.daevas.com/forums/
http://bp.daevas.com/forums/discussion/na-general-discussion/
I still have to edit the .css to match the theme design, but I wanted to find out what was wrong with the default forums page and why it wasn’t showing up correctly.
Thanks and hope you can help.
@johnjamesjacoby – (Sorry for not posting directly on the trac ticket, I can’t seem to login there)
1) The link should hopefully include the correct page and anchor link to bring them directly to the right comment
2) If the user has more than one notification and the notification menu brings them onto their activity page instead, those should also link correctly as stated above.
(Although it would be fantastic if up to 5 forum @mentions could be shown in the notification menu before grouping them into 1)
3 more tickets to go for 2.1! Thanks
Hello all,
This is my first time here. My bbpress install went fine on a wordpress site thats exists for a while now. I was able to log in to …/bb-admin and edit options.
Next, I changed the cookies as described in the process to match those of wordpress.
I saved the changes & got logged out.
Now I am unable to log in to …/bb-admin and it says “admin” is not a user.
Appreciate any help,
S Ram
jjj has committed a fix. If you update your 2.1 install everything should be good. Again, thanks for reporting the bug.
I have sent them an email, but no response. Was hopefully looking for a suggestion for a plugin that plays nice with BBpress.
I just tested it and you are right! Seems to be screwy when using the numeric permalinks.
We’re going to look into that. I definitely appreciate you coming back and posting about the problem you encountered – this will help us make 2.1 as solid as possible when it is released publicly
I think it has to do with the permalink style. I had numeric permalinks before. If i Change it to “post name” permalinks i think the original code works.
Hmm, I’ll ping @jjj about this, however it seems to be working for me (the original method).
Copy everything from /bbp-theme-compat into your active theme directory. Once that’s done bbPress should detect it (in 2.1 that is) and use that instead!
I find where is the prob
It s my theme, I use elegant themes and
In ePanel there is an option in
General Settings >>> General tabs
Number of Posts displayed on Archive pages
before limit is set to 5 I put 50 and bbpress works All Forum appear in list and get_posts() recover all post
But is NOT a fix . 
So if someone have a solution ?
I also posted on elegantthemes forum support.
I have just created a bbpress forum using the bbpress plugin. I also use the Network Publisher plugin. This plugin posts to twitter and facebook whenever a new post on my website happens. The problem is that it also posts when a post on my bbpress forum happens. Is there a way to make it where it doesn’t act like a normal post or does anyone know if there is a different plugin I can use that doesn’t automatically post and requires you to manually add the option on each post? I just don’t want my website’s twitter and facebook post every time a bbpress topic is posted. I appreciate any and all help. Thanks!
I’m struggling with the new theme support in bbPress 2.1-dev. My goal is to modify the original bbPress theme and include it into my regular WordPress child theme (wp-content/themes/halftone-child) which is derived from Halftone theme (wp-content/themes/halftone).
I failed to figure out which files at which location I have to copy/modify in order to reach my goal. Things seem to change in every version (1.x/2.0/2.1), and it is hard to find information/documentation. Didn’t find anything in the forums (and yes, I read http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-20-theme-compatibility and http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-21-theme-compatibility).
So my question is:
Which files from the current 2.1-dev, available under http://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/3769/branches/plugin?old_path=%2F&format=zip do I need to achieve my goal? Where do I have to copy them?
Okay, i got it working and it’s awesome! (although a bit buggy)
After backing up the bbpress folder, I basically left the existing bbpress plugin running and activated, and just copied the 2.1 plugin contents into the existing plugin folders.
One bug i caught is that there is no beginning slash for the “EDIT” Link in topics for the admin, so I went in the code and added that.
This change was made in bbp-topic-template.php at line 2199
if ( $wp_rewrite->using_permalinks() ) {
$url = $topic_link . $bbp->edit_id;
$url = trailingslashit( $url );
i changed it to
if ( $wp_rewrite->using_permalinks() ) {
$url = $topic_link . ‘/’. $bbp->edit_id;
$url = trailingslashit( $url );
Ok
I find something but I don’t know if is good to do like that .
In function.php add this :
add_action(‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘add_my_stylesheet’);
function add_my_stylesheet() {
$myStyleFile = get_theme_root_uri() . ‘/myTheme/mybbpress.css’;
if ( (is_post_type_archive( ‘forum’ )) ) {
wp_enqueue_style( ‘myStyleSheetsi’, $myStyleFile);
}
}
Create a file in your theme mybbpress.css :
div.bbp-breadcrumb, h1.title{
display:none;
}
Just to notice, all changes is for first page forum only(http://mysite.com/forums) if you want to make changes on all your forums pages replace
if ( (is_post_type_archive( ‘forum’ )) ) {
by
if ( (is_post_type_archive( ‘forum’ ) || is_singular( array( ‘forum’, ‘topic’, ‘reply’ ) )) ) {
I tried is_page_template(‘bbpress.php’) or is_page(35) etc… (a lot I tried :p)
but don’t work.
hi jaredatch ,
The reason it’s not holding back Vanilla is because while Vanilla doesn’t have a good wysiwyg editor by default, it has good, working ones
which are easily installed through plugins.
BBpress 2.0 currently does not. It doesn’t even support bbcode natively.
Anyways, I do appreciate your suggestion — this functionality is very important so im willing to experiment with a pre release version of bbpress.
I’ve downloaded the bbpress plugin you pointed to and backed up my existing bbpress plugin folder.
Now, how do i install this bbpress 2.1 without breaking my existing bbpress 2.0 forums?
