Try /wp-admin/options-general.php?page=bbpress if you are using the plugin. I haven’t used standalone in a while.

[Andre]

Please keep in mind you are working with beta software.

[Andre]

I don’t think I understand your question.

[lm@cfx-inc.com]

got it!

Thanks a lot, JJJ.

Keep in mind though, that the bbPress forums will not auto update like P2 does for posts. That would be a huge custom job to accomplish.

Are you sure? I mean, for posts, sure, but if bbPress incorporated StackExchange-style threaded comments, i.e. ‘comments on replies’, I don’t see why that would be very different.

@JJJ

will beta 3 fix things not fixed in svn till version 3327? Thats what im using and its not fixed.

Edit; had another quick try and its working.

heres what i done, i’m using a twenty ten child theme, activated the child theme, copied the contents of the bbp-twentyten folder (not the folder) to the child theme root with the exception of style,css, screenshot.png and functions.php.

at the root of the child theme i created a functions.php file from “scratch” with the following:

<?php

add_theme_support( 'bbpress' );

?>

and voilá its working, i did this steps so many times in the morning but now its working

[selise]

thank a lot, jjj!

The forum index bug is fixed already here. I’ll package up a Beta 3b today to address it.

[Sofian J. Anom]

Currently I have installed bbpress plugin on my buddypress site. With the 2.0-beta-2 version appear normal, though of course less than perfect. Recently I upgraded to the 2.0-beta-3 version, the forums become disappear.

[selise]

master5o1 – i’m seeing a possibly related problem:

updated to beta-3 and now have a blank forums page. was fine with beta-2.

wp is unchanged at 3.1.3. am using a twenty ten child theme with the new bbpress files, page name is “forums” using the “Forum Index template”

and the following forum slug set up:

forums base archive slug is “forums”

single forum slug is “forum”

Hello everybody,

first sorry for my english, i’m a french bbpress user then i don’t speak a very good english.

I’m trying to custimize the breadcrumb on my forum but i don’t succeed what i’m trying to do.

By default, the breadcrumb is like this :

Forum name >> Category name >> Forum name

What i want is to delete the “Category name” from the bbcrumb. Then i went into functions.bb-template.php file but don’t found the codeline i have to edit. I found the bb_get_forum_bread_crumb() function but don’t know how to do.

Does someone can help me ?

In resume, i’m trying to change :

Forum name >> Category name >> Forum name

to :

Forum name >> Forum name

on forum pages.

Last question, how to add “topic name” at the end of the bbcrumb on the topics page ?

Thanks in advance.

[sanguango]

For those who read in spanish, this seem to be the solution: http://giltesa.com/2011/03/19/instalacion-de-bbpress-e-integracion-con-wordpress/

a clear step by step installation

[hlwinkler]

Here is what I eventually figured out — it would be great if someone would let me know a) if there is an easier way to do this and b) if they see any security issues in here, since I am not a PHP programmer or frequently working with WP or bbpress. Thank you.

This replaces the breadcrumbs block between the comments

/** Current ***********************************************************/

and

/** Finish Up *********************************************************/

in bbp-common-template.php in the neighborhood of lines 1421 to 1428:

/** Current ***********************************************************/

// Add current page to breadcrumb

global $current_user;

get_currentuserinfo();

$bb2custom_user_is_logged_in = 'Welcome '.$current_user->user_login.'. You can log out <a href='.wp_logout_url( get_permalink() ).'>here</a>.';

$bb2custom_user_is_logged_out = "You aren't logged in. <a href=".wp_login_url( get_permalink() ).">Log in here</a> or <a href='http://www.example.com/wp-login.php?action=register'>register</a> if you don't have an account.";

if ( is_user_logged_in() ) {

$bb2custom_loginoutregister = $bb2custom_user_is_logged_in;

} else {

$bb2custom_loginoutregister = $bb2custom_user_is_logged_out;

}

if ( !empty( $include_current ) || empty( $pre_current_text ) )

$breadcrumbs[] = '<span class="bbp-breadcrumb-current">' . $current_text . '</span><p>' .$bb2custom_loginoutregister. '</p>';

/** Finish Up *********************************************************/

I think there is a bug in the bbp-twentyten files.

I’m talking about archive-forum.php

It calls bbp_get_template_part( 'bbpress/content', 'archive-forums' );

Notice the ‘s’ from archive-forums. That template part doesn’t exist, thus http://www.example.com/forums/ returns empty. (Also themes that don’t have support for bbpress don’t display anything for /forums/ url – is this default functionality?)

Thanks.

[Ricardo]

I’m using a child theme, bbpress v3327, copied the contents of bbp-twentytento the child theme directory, creted a page “forums” assigned bbpress index template to it but it doesnt show the forum index unless i use the shortcodes, created some forums and topics inside of them and it doesnt show either the forums when i click on them or the topics, individual links don’t work.

Forum index (shortcode enabled)

http://www.ricardouk.com/forums

Individual forum permalink (not working):

http://www.ricardouk.com/forums/forum/regras-de-utilizacao-do-forum

individual forum link (partially not working, just shows the content)

http://www.ricardouk.com/forums/topic/como-efectuar-o-registo-neste-forum

all of this was working with beta 2

[hlwinkler]

Hello,

I have sorted out my migration from a standalone 1.0 installation in a separate db to a 2.0 plugin installation on my own, and now I would like to restore the functionality of bbpress 1.0 of having a log in/out link and a username for the logged-in user at the top of every forum page. I don’t want this at the top of every page on my site, just on every forum page. Here is the approximate code I would use if I were to add this to a WP header somewhere:

<?php if ( is_user_logged_in() ) { ?>

get_currentuserinfo();

<p>

echo ‘Welcome ‘ . $current_user->user_login . Click here to log out“n”;

</p>

<?php } else { ?>

<p>” title=”Login”>Log in to post if you are registered, or /wp-register.php”>register an account.</p>

<?php } ?>

Can someone help me integrate the same functionality into bbp-common-template.php or wherever it ought to go in order to be shown on every forum page but not on any pages that aren’t part of my forum? I would like it to appear right below the breadcrumbs on every page.

While I’m here, I’d like to strongly recommend building this functionality into the bbpress plugin, since there are probably many people other than me who don’t want to encourage login attempts (or use up primary menu navigation space) for any pages other than their dedicated forums.

Thank you!

Hi

I am about to do some maintenance on my forum and want to leave a message to the members.

I have searhed the forums and the web without result.

How can this be done in a easy way. Something like below but for bbpress or a plugin maybe?

function wpr_maintenance_mode() {

if ( !current_user_can( ‘edit_themes’ ) || !is_user_logged_in() ) {

wp_die(‘Maintenance, please come back soon.’);

}

}

add_action(‘get_header’, ‘wpr_maintenance_mode’);

[tooltrainer]

Was editing my theme files to incorporate new stuff, and found that single-reply-edit.php says “native” at the top of the file, for no apparent reason that I can tell.

Jonathan

EDIT: There are actually a whole bunch of files that say “native” at the top. Is this some sort of “tag” that is quietly removed from the pages at output time or something?

[master5o1]

Seems to only do that if I select the child theme as the activated theme.

Are we supposed to have the bbpress twenty ten as activated or what? -_-

[rkwilson]

Hi John, firstly, thanks so much for the work you’re doing. I think BBPress is a great product.

I’ve just installed Beta 3 and am getting the Forum breadcrumb link not working issue. I created a Forums page on our site and added the [bbp-forum-index] shortcode to the page. The page address is “?page_id=155”.

For the uninitiated, could you please give a dummies version of what I need to do to get the Forums link pointing back to that page.

Thanks heaps

Users roles haven’t been changed from the default settings. The only settings set regarding users is that they can register AND create sites.

No, not even as the super admin will it post.

Thanks, Bryan

[John James Jacoby]

Cool thanks for reporting. Any idea what role the users are that are having the issues? Are you able to post topics and replies as a site admin?

[master5o1]

I think the process should have a few more steps as to prevent time outs. Currently it just fails/times out on my forum import, which has 33,500 posts, 1,500 topics and 12 forums.

I think that the importation should first import the forums, allowing you to select which forum you would like to import.

Then the next screen is importing topics from the forums that were just imported.

The process should be broken down to prevent time outs, so only topics from one forum at a time should be imported.

Importing users’ favourite should be the last thing.

Although, I thought that perhaps it would have been better ( though more coding I guess ) if the importer didn’t rely on access to bb-config.php.

[Anonymous User]

The bbPress plugin doesn’t appear to work on multisite at all as far as creating topics is concerned. It works in appearance, displaying, adding cats and forums, adjusting settings etc.

However, when submitting a topic nothing happens, it just sort of bounces/reloads the page but certainly doesn’t create/post the topic.

Thanks, Bryan
