Explain? All of my installs have wp-content located outside of the WordPress install directory, so I don’t believe this to be entirely accurate.

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

Done! – https://bbpress.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1581

[John James Jacoby]

@anmari – At the risk of sounding defensive (which I’m not trying to be) please assume we develop everything with WP_DEBUG on, and anything that pops up is an oversight, not a lack of knowledge or ability. You can create trac tickets at bbpress.trac.wordpress.org to outline the steps to trigger the notices. Thanks!

@ashfame – Ticket please. Thanks!

[John James Jacoby]

Agreed. Add a ticket on trac?

This solved my problem: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/bbpress-plugin-updates/page/36#post-89745

[Thomas Clausen]

I have tried the plugin for a while now. I have ported a big PHP-Fusion installation to bbPress.

I have two comments so far:

1. There’s something “funny” about the reply post type. I have written this issue regarding it: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/replies-sometimes-link-to-weird-content

2. The RSS feeds are also clunky as far as I can tell. Here’s my experience: https://bbpress.org/forums/topic/rss-feed-in-bbpress-plugin-doesnt-work

I also had an issue with the search, but since I just wanted a sitewide search, i just implemented Google CSE, and it’s working great for me.

I’m all for adding more settings, anytime rather that than having to punch a bunch of stuff into the functions.php

But to sum up, it’s already a lot better than what I have used for the past couple of years with PHP-Fusion.

[Thomas Clausen]

I have different usecases that provoke an annoying error with the reply post type. I think the easiest way to show it, is with an example.

I can generate two different outputs of the post type:

The right one

http://voipsnak.dk/ip-telefoni/emne/velkommen-til-det-nye-forum/#post-30706

The wrong one

http://voipsnak.dk/ip-telefoni/svar/reply-to-velkommen-til-det-nye-forum-4

The right one can be found by clicking:

– the “anchor” URL above each reply

– view from the all replies link in the backend

The wrong one can be found by clicking:

– view from the reply editing screen in the backend

– by using two sitemap generators by the well renowned Yoast: WordPress SEO and Arne Brachhold: Google XML Sitemaps.

– in the feed if I use this guide: http://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-add-custom-post-types-to-your-main-wordpress-rss-feed (which might be an error in the guide I know, I just wanted to include this also)

So have I done something wrong? I’m using RC3 of the bbPress plugin.

[Thomas Clausen]

I’ve just ported a big php fusion installation to bbPress. But I had some problems regarding the feeds.

In the forums I have figured out, that the feed URL should be these:

// feed of forums

http://voipsnak.dk/?feed=rss2&post_type=forum

// feed of topics

http://voipsnak.dk/?feed=rss2&post_type=topic

// feed of replies

http://voipsnak.dk/?feed=rss2&post_type=reply

// combined feed

http://voipsnak.dk/?feed=rss2&post_type=topic&post_type=reply

1. The different feeds doesn’t show up in the browser address window

2. The reply feed show the oldest topics, and not the newest replies

3. The combined feed shows the same as the reply feed, which is also wrong

I have tried with different values added to the combined feed. Like &orderby=date&order=DESC but it didn’t work.

I hope one of you can guide me with the three issues above.

I am trying to do this but still there is no success. If anyone have any idea, please share.

OK, all is well. Otto has a new version of the plugin not yet released. It’s available as a branch on svn. Whatever conflict existed has been resolved in the branch, so it’ll be good when that’s released

[raconnor]

So, now that bbpress is a plugin integrated into a wordpress site, how is this going to work out with things like WP Cache or WP Super Cache?

Unless there are very very few members or there is a way to turn caching off for just the forum section of a site, this could be a troublesome partnership to have WP and BBP together.

Anyone know a way to have BBP 2.0 integrated into a wordpress without caching just the forum section?

[Erlend]

[Multisite:] Users can access all forums, or users can only access forums for which they have a role on that specific site?

I think they should have access to all forums. Once you have a multisite setup, isn’t it commonly because a bunch of sites are going to have some unifying factor in common?

On my own site, all forum activity would most likely be confined to a single bbPress install tied to the main BuddyPress site, so I don’t think this decision concerns me anyhow. I would like to know though, would either way be fairly easy to opt into by means of existing settings or a plugin if whatever ends up as the default is not ideal for a particular setup?

Search is a pretty big topic. Isn’t this something that ought to be discussed in context of the entire WordPress ecosystem?, i.e. including at least Multisite and BuddyPress. I really think there ought to be just the one default type of WordPress search, which both bbPress and BuddyPress would plug into. My project will rely on bbPress in BuddyPress, so in my case I’m looking for a BuddyPress search that will properly incorporate bbPress search results.

As for the settings panel, I would agree that the secondary layer of navigational tabs that many premium themes (-frameworks) come with is very manageable.

[williamhussey]

So after “All topics” I would like to have more tabs. How do I do this?

Sorry, a long time WordPress user but a complete noob to bbPress..

[master5o1]

Erm..

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

And I see this particular line everywhere

Notice: Use of undefined constant paged - assumed 'paged' in /home/ashfame/www/dev.example.net/wp-content/plugins/bbpress/bbp-includes/bbp-common-functions.php on line 263

[Ashish Kumar (Ashfame)]

is_bbpress() function currently doesn’t account for tag pages – http://dev.example.net/forums/topic-tag/testing/

Is it by design? I think it should account tag pages as they basically are bbPress pages.

[Doug Smith]

I just wanted to add that I pulled down the latest from svn and there were some changes in the importer code. Still no luck, though.

[user_roles]

Hi,

I can’t find any documentation about user roles in bbPress. I’m using integrated bbPress version with BuddyPress.

I’ve set user to ‘blocked’ and ‘inactive’ -status which seems to do nothing. For example, user with ‘blocked’ -status can still log in and write to group forums. What am I doing wrong?

[Chloe.Flanery]

Thanks. Honestly, im not even sure the 2010 theme is loading. It seems the forum is using my wp theme css rather than the default css. Ive tried copying the CSS from the bbp-twentyten into my themes style.css and still no luck. The forum is basically a blank slate right now.

[Mike1233]

You can style via css. in /bbp Themes

[Chloe.Flanery]

Hi… how can I style my forum? Are there any premade templates for the forum?

[Mike1233]

where i can download the bbPress RC?

[Mike1233]

Thanks for help. i have deactivate the smileys in wordpress.. now i can see it in postbar.

great plugin

[anmari]

One of the amazing things about the new bbpress plugin and wordpress custom post types is that so many plugins will/can integrate with each other by simply allowing the option to apply the logic to the forum / topic/ or reply custom post types.

Several of the questions I have seen can be answered by google “wordpress custom post type”, plus whatever you were looking for.

Perhaps this could be emphasised more in the FAQ etc…
