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..

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.

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?

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…

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.

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

best wishes

I am using a great plugin called “WordPress Access Control” right now and I really like it.

I don’t understand how to assign any particular role to being able to use the forum.

The instructions from this page seem to be outdated:

https://bbpress.org/documentation/integration-with-wordpress/

“In the “WordPress Integration” section of the “Settings” area in your bbPress admin you will find a “User Role Map” where you can set which roles will be applied to users who register on your forums. Users who register on your WordPress blog will have the appropriate role applied to their account when they first login to bbPress.”

I didn’t notice any “User Role Map”, but I could be easily mistaken.

How are these things handled in the current version of bbpress?

This seems like a pretty fundamental thing(?)

[@ommunist]

Has the same issue. I created “my-languages” folder, but bbPress does not pick up mo and po from it. I also look to find the way to make it compatible with qTranslate.

Hey everyone,

Is it possible to have multiple forums for different groups? For example if you go to my website…. http://studentbookmarket.com/ and click on ‘Michigan State University’ I have multiple forums set up however if you click on any other school i don’t have any forums on those pages. Is there a way to have personalized forums set up for different pages. I have bbpress and buddy press set up.

Thanks

[zofar143x]

You should be able to make a new role and only add the bbpress capabilities to it. Try something like jason tadlocks “members” plugin if you want to use a plugin to do this.

[lindevi]

I’m using BBpress for my L5R writing/roleplaying community, though it’s still under construction. I would also be interested in a dice roller with the kind of functionality Myth-weavers has for theirs. If anyone knows of any, I’d appreciate it as well. Otherwise, I may just have to break down and figure out how to write my own.

[@Forint573]

Anybody? Suggestion?

hi citizenkeith, do you run the /tools/recount after import, like anointed préconise juste 2 replies before yours?

[citizenkeith]

Will a future update correct the “freshness” date? As is, it’s the time of the conversion, not the actual freshness of the topic/post.

I am new to WordPress and bbPress. I have a WordPress 3.3 site with bbPress installed in its own directory. I went through all the steps for WordPress Integration and all the WordPress users show up as bbPress users so that is good.

The problem is I thought that a logged in WordPress user would be logged in to the bbPress section when they go to the forums. But they are not. They have to log in again.

Is this how it works or is there another step that I need to get full integration?
