Hi. I am using BBpress to add a community component to my mostly informational site. What I want is for my forums to:

1) be hidden from nonlogged in members;

2) require members to be able to login and check the 1 forum that I assign to them for updates, WITHOUT having access to someone elses forum.

Is this at all possible through an existing plugin or through some code modification?

I am using wp-members for registration/login stuff. That plugin does have the ability to lock access to pages and posts, but currently, I don’t use those features.

I am also using latest BBpress and WordPress software.

Thank you.

I’m working on a custom WP & bbPress theme for a client and I’d like to highlight what forums have had new posts added since the user last logged in. Is there a function that I can call that allows me to get this info?

I’m thinking something along the lines of this:

<?php if(new_forum_posts()) : ?>

highlight icon

<?php else : ?>

don't highlight icon

<?php endif; ?>

Any help is appreciated!

i have done an extensive search on this manner but i have not found anything (so i am hoping its just user error!).

i am using the latest version of bbpress as a plugin with the latest version of wordpress.

I LOVE IT!

however…

i have a privet area (category) in the root of my forum with private forums within. sounds reasonable!

but when i navigate to my forum root, my privet category shows 0 topics and 0 posts (yes i have added topics and posts). even worse, when i click on my privet category, it just says “This category contains 0 topics and 0 replies.” and doesn’t show the forums that live there. (sadface)

even more curious, if a make one of the privet forums with in my privet category, public… then they all show up (both in the root and in the category view)!

this is the case for all roles and accessibility.

can anyone shed some light on what i may be doing wrong?

So I’m running a loop in my sidebar… on all pages, it works fine. For some reason, on forum pages and topics, the <p> tags created by the_content() get stripped.

In my page.php template, I reset the while have posts query.

Ideas?

Is there any solution for what eraleks mentioned?

It took me a lot of trial and error, deactivating and activating of plugins to figure out what the problem was with my bbpress.

I don’t know what, why or how, but there is some problem between bbPress and Greg’s High Performance SEO. If Greg’s is installed, bbPress does not work – your forum root will seem ok enough…but if you click on any forum, the forum’s topic listing page will not list any topics, and the topic page will not show the discussion or any response options.

This is sad because I have come to like Greg’s High Performance SEO…but because I have decided, for many reasons, to move from phpbb to bbPress, I hope a fix is found soon.

ok, very sad though.

I was hoping that community support would be ramping up by now, with people releasing such converters etc. But it seems not to be the case.

I will just have to look to an alternative (vanilla?), as I can’t afford to pay for a conversion. Additionally, its not a good ‘entry’ into a new system – having to pay your way in. Doesn’t give the impression of a thriving support system.

Maybe I don’t fully understand the technical aspects, but if you guys can do a punbb>bbpress manual conversion, how difficult is it to convert those steps into a script for your future users?

Cheers,

Ed

Hello,

I decided to test out bbPress; unfortunately, I was unable to post a new topic in the first forum I created. I kept on encountering this error each time…

Fatal error: Call to undefined function akismet_get_user_roles() in …/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-extend-akismet.php on line 146

Is there any reason this is happening?

[zachshallbetter]

Unfortunately the site is internal, and like I had indicated there are not any other plugins installed at all. I’m unsure what to give you considering I’ve turned off everything and wiped the database. Anything more specific I can give you?

I am using Buddy Press with bbpress on a rockettheme wp site using gantry frame works (whew)

No I created a page with short codes, but when the bbpress slug is the same as the page it does not format correctly.

Also when I change the slug back to ‘forums’ that link does not work either.

You can see it at ppsdc.com/main-board (this is the page with shortcodes, shows fine now because slug is different)

meanwhile the slug link ppsdc.com/forums shows the unformatted page.

If I change the slug to main-board I get the same thing as the above sentence.

I used the forum list widget so you can actually get to a forum and see those pages are fine.

Any Ideas??

[Nirzol1]

hello

shortcode is good.

But how can I remove breadcrumbs plz ?

Because I use two shortcode :

[bbp-forum-index]

[bbp-topic-index]

And I have breadcrumbs for forum and an other for topic. Maybe make a shortcode like this is t possible ?

[bbp-topic-index breadcrumbs=false]

And are they way to say number topics to display ?

thx for help !

Will need way more specific information to be of any help. Links to sites, versions of WordPress/bbPress, etc…

[John James Jacoby]

I don’t know what ‘gform_full_access’ is, but it sounds like another plugin is interfering with bbPress’s role and capabilities. That, or it’s a bug. Will need you to figure out which it is and report back if it’s something we can fix on our end.

@patking76 – is this with the 2.1 re-release?

[John James Jacoby]

@MTPower – Age old WordPress and bbPress UX issue. Could use some ajax to make it easier. bbPress 2.0 solves this, and when we update bbpress.org it will no longer be an issue. (You could have also used the link in the upper left, but it’s easily missed.)

…why the heck is it so hard to unsubscribe to e-mail notifications of replies to topics? I had to make this post just so that my unchecking of “Notify me of follow-up posts via email” will register. It won’t register unless you hit the “Send Reply” button… What the heck.

@acoburn4 – Sadly you won’t be able to. Because all of WordPress is being rewritten to /blog, it would take some server level rewriting to make your forums work below it. Even then, I am not sure it would really work. You’ll want to make your entire site run at website.com, create two pages: /blog and /forums, then setup each the way you want them to be.

It’s custom built for the site. Based off the original Kakumei theme (for bbPress 1.1)

[Matthew2D]

Could someone tell me what theme BBPress.org is using?

Thanks!

[zachshallbetter]

Also, users are able to edit the admin’s profile.

I upgraded to 3690 and then back down to 2.02 with no results.

I defaulted the WordPress theme to twenty_ten no results.

Installed capability manager and verified that users were able to view forum information.

[zachshallbetter]

I’m having a problem where Admin is able to see their user information and all forum data but all other accounts are directed to a blank page.

This is the “local” address users get sent to http://pcocs/forums/users/skingsford/

This is where admins are directed. http://pcocs/forums/users/admin/

They have “gform_full_access”

I’m using the latest version of wordpress(3.3.1) and bbpress (2.02). I nuked everything related to bbpress including the db entries. reinstalled, and the same issue is occurring.

Disabled all plugins, and re-activated the plugin. Still unable to access user profile as another user. Able to access profile in dashboard.

Rebuilt the permalinks.

No themes, no plugins, just default data.

Any thoughts on what would cause this to occur?
