Been there and it does not work – Old threads, old codes.

Found a solution and IT WORKS

Hi BBpress.

First, all my posts about closing topics, never got answered by any. Please share!

I found a solution, so i share it.

You can let users close their topics for reply, remove their topics (trash) edit and so on. With bbpress 2.0.2 and User Role editor.

All new users are subscribers -> In User Role Editor mark these fields:

assign_topic_tags

delete_others_topics

delete_topic_tags

delete_topics

moderate

edit_replies

edit_topics

publish_replies

publish_topics

read

Now they are capable to do it! And they cannot /edit/delete/close other topics – only there own.

The “spam” field is still visible – But it is possible to remove it from the .php files somewhere (Notepad++ and Search all files does the magic of finding it!)

Thats all

Have searched hi and low and only find discussion of these ideas relating to pre-bbpress 2.0 plugin.

I have a private site, i.e. registration required to see anything. Installed the plugin. Forums and topics are created. I want a notification to automatically go out to all registered users (i.e our ‘members’) each time a new forum or new topic is created. I want to preclude their having to get online and poke around to see what is new but rather to push it out to them.

Ideally they would be notified of every new posting both out of the bbpress activity and from a WP Post or Page creation.

Suggestions on where to go for this?

Yeah, I’ve been searching for an answer for hours.

Found that they are supposed to be in:

wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten

You might try that!

For me, if I try to change anything in the template files I find there, nothing happens. But perhaps it’s because I’m not using twentyten, but a childtheme to bp-default.

I’ve also tried with:

wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-forums/bbpress/bb-templates/kakumei

but with no result.

Hey John. Sorry just spotted your reply….

We’re getting nailed by spam and its not good. Michelle was going to post the following but I decided to copy it here instead:

We have a huge problem with spam! (40+ posts a day) We have tried quite a few things to try and get rid of this problem but nothing seems to be working.

Currently our site is running the latest version of BB-Press we have the Akismet plugin activated and running we also have the Stop Spammer Registrations reCAPTCHA plugin for new user registration.

We have in the past tried the reCaptcha for bbPress 2.0 this didn’t make much difference and we couldn’t use this plugin with the spammer registration one so have removed it for now.

We are running out of ideas and things to try so are reaching out to you guys for some help or suggestions, have we missed something or can anyone recommend a solution to all this spam.

My solution and best thinking involved finding the spammers in the real world and removing their hands as punishment

Badly needed: A simple SEO plugin that allows me to change the Title of the home page meta tag.

Other items badly needed: SEO for keywords, description.

WordPress has a great plugin called, “All in One SEO PACK” — something like that but for bbpress.

Anyone???

My biggest challenge right now to using bbpress is difficulty finding quality plugins.

Please help!

Thank you!!!

Hi! I’m a little late on this one. Using bbpress 2.0 but the above code still kinda works. When I add it, I get the edit button, but no delete button. Any tips? I want all users to be able to edit and delete their own posts. Also, I’m confused whether assigning someone the role Forum Participant vs. Subcriber has anything to do with it, but I’ve tried both. Here’s the code I was using from above:

function delete_own_post($retvalue, $capability, $args) {

if ($capability=="delete_post") {return bb_current_user_can( 'edit_post', $args[1]);}

return $retvalue;

}

add_filter('bb_current_user_can', 'delete_own_post',10,3);

I’m looking specifically to remove the ^topics/ base slug from the url, but ability to remove any or all other base or slugs would be useful as well.

There was a 1.x plugin that did this, but alas I can’t find a way to do it in 2.x

I’m familiar with the necessarily mod_rewrite changes to make this work on the apache side of things, but i have no idea how to make it bbPress 2.x compatible

Please advise, thank you.

ps: this is important and i’m willing to have resources available to achieve it, contact me directly or post here

I saw a thread about registration for bbPress forum plugin on WP:

These are two ways that were mentioned, but I am not sure how to do either:

1. create an .htaccess and put the following in:

Redirect 301 /yourbbpressdirectory/register.php http://yourdomain.com/yourwordpressdirectory/wp-login.php?action=register

2. <?php

header(‘Location:http://your-wordpress-url.com/wp-login.php?action=register&#8217;);

?>

Can anyone give me a step by step on how to do this? Thanks.

an integrated dice roller would be great – any ideas how to port the buddypress group dice roller into bbpress forums? It’s not perfect, but it works.

[metalweb]

I have made a forum for heavy metal music here: http://metalwebonlineradio.com/Metalforums/

The forum is integrated with Buddypress. I have removed the Buddypress group option, and use it as a forum only. I have not modefied other than the css yet.

I would like to have a latest post link on top or a exerpt of the latest 5 posts, but I have not found where to mod in the theme files.. I would like to find some good tutorials on bbpress mods, and I would appriciate if any of you shared a good tutorial link..

[metalweb]

I have made a bbpress froum on Buddypress, and have made one forum without groups.

I have followed this tutorial:http://www.buddyboss.com/how-to-set-up-a-single-bbpress-forum-with-buddypress/

The solution I have now makes google index the empty groups.

As I understood from the tutorial there will come a new version of bbpress that is more integrated with buddypress.

Is there anybody here that knows if a new vesion will come, and if it removes the group issues from buddypress?

[wvanderzee]

I use the standalone version of bbPress (1.1).

According to the instructions found on this forum I did the following:

– downloaded most recent NL .po and .mo

– created a new directory my-languages in bbPress

– edit the config-php and added nl_NL at BB_LANG

Most strings are then translated, but not everything.

E.g. on the front page of the forum:

– Search

– Latest Discussion,

– Main theme etc.

I cannot find these strings in the po file.

[danoman]

I’m working on a multisite network using latest stable versions of Buddypress and BBPress.

I’m building a child theme to bp-default, but I can’t find the right template files for the forum par of the site.

Is it really:

wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-themes/bbp-twentyten

Or should I be looking in:

wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-forums/bbpress

Or perhaps somewhere else?

[zofar143x]

I don’t think you fully understand what roles and capabilities are. Furthermore, did you try the plugin I suggested? It’s quite different from the “WordPress Access Control” plugin which doesn’t provide you with the ability to modify the capabilities different roles have. The documentation is indeed outdated since the way people register has changed in bbpress 2.x.. The same functionality that the user role map appears to have had (I never used bbpress before 2.x), can now be found under General > Settings > New user default role.

[vsagar]

I removed the div.bbp-breadcrumb in bbpress.css

then added this

.bbp-forums {

width: 100%;

}

But with no luck..

Its not working…

I also want full width forum on my following link…

http://vsagar.com/students/forums/forum/electronics-students-forum-3/

Please help…

[seancam4]

I am using a custom theme I purchased from themeforest and installed the bbpress plugin. I want to know how I can integrate everything correctly so I can use the page templates when I create a new page??? Thanks in advance.

[highexistence]

How can I alter the output of the pagination template tag? Specifically bbp_topic_pagination_links();

From the source, it appears not to accept any parameters directly.

[jwpegram]

Works great too

@shoo, 169k is nothing… I’ve got on with 3.5M posts and estimated it’ll take almost a week to import… lol Got another one running right now that’s got 300k and it’s been running 22 hours and is maybe 2/3 the way done.

The problem is with the meta updates and the way WP stores that kind of stuff there’s a boat load of inserting going on for every post. I’m hoping to take a look at the script in a few days to see if I can help it along.

@citizenkeith, if you are using the lastest version of the converter it should be pulling the correct dates. At least it is for VB now, where it wasn’t on the last version.

[Andre]

It was possible with BuddyPress and forums installed via BuddyPress, but I don’t know of a way using bbPress 2.x yet. 2.x is supposed to be the forum software used for BuddyPress 1.6 so it should be coming soon.

[juneman]

Awesome !

Thanks hscoder

really useful links

best wishes
