We tried to develop a voting plugin to easily add a Like and Dislike button to your website forum topics.
Also, you can add these buttons to activities in BuddyPress and even posts and comments. we designed 15 templates for votes (and still adding new ones monthly). Meanwhile getting votes without a tool to measure it would be meaningless and so, we added a comprehensive Statistics Tools to the plugin so you can observe and generate charts and reports easily. we will appreciate if you check out our efforts and give us feedback. visit WP ULike Pro for more information and details.

Thanks, anyway I cannot find anything applying to my case.

First of all, I must exclude the WP capability named “unfiltered_upload”, since I didn’t activate the unfilted uploading feature. In any case, I made tests and this is not affecting the problem I’m facing.

Secondly, I tried editing the bbPress role capabilities (the problem is that the advised tool allows only the modification per user, and not for the entire role type), and I didn’t find anything that applies (there’s nothign related to uploads).
Then I tried to edit WP role capabilites with the help of a plugin, and nothing changes again.

I’m desperate – I start thinking it’s a problem of my Windows hosting.
To exclude some things, let me ask 2 questions:
1. is this a new problem or it arose also in the past?
2. I found the WP capability “upload_files” for the Subscriber role by default. This is strange, anyway, I tried enabling it but nothing changes.

thanks in advance for the help

Hello all, this is probably a strange request but what the hell, I will give it a shot…

My site is not live yet, it is at https://jimandms.com/ running the latest version of BuddyPress, bbPress and WordPress. I keep them all updated…

Anyway, I have added some posts to the forum. Just general housekeeping stuff mostly. And the complete post shows in my feed on my homepage as well as in the forum. Ideally, I would not want anything to show on the home screen when a forum post is made. I want to keep the two separate to a certain extent.

Or if this cannot be done, then a short blurb about the post with a link to the forum would be acceptable. As it is right now, it shows on the newsfeed as I said and you get a read more on the post and when you click it it shows the whole post.

Anyone have any ideas about how to accomplish this? I checked all of the settings and I didn’t see anything that would help but it is always possible that I missed something.

Thanks for reading!
Jim

ok so you’ll need to work through what capabilities let this happen

bbPress User Roles and Capabilities

Roles and Capabilities

and then amend these for what you want

Hello,
I’m trying to merge two topics together. I select the topic to merge into, press the submit button, then an empty page opens with the message “A variable mismatch has been detected”.

I’m using
Wordpress 5.3.2
bbPress 2.6.3
on my site http://www.renegadeskutr.cz/forums/forum/srazy-a-akce/

I also tried editing a topic, pinning/unpinning, etc. and these functions work properly.

It seems this is a common issue with many plugins since WordPress 5.0.1. I googled and found many topics with the same issue from other plugins. Apparently “WordPress checks if GET and POST inputs match and, in case of mismatch, it throws the error.”
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-variable-mismatch-has-been-detected-6/page/4/

How can I fix the problem?

[Robin W]

I’m pretty sure this is WordPress not bbpress, so you are looking at WordPress admin vs subscriber rather than bbpress keymaster vs. participant.

You don’t say how you added the capability

eg

https://www.wpbeginner.com/wp-tutorials/how-to-add-additional-file-types-to-be-uploaded-in-wordpress/

anyway I’d suggest you do some tests eg set up a user with

admin and participant
subscriber and keymaster

and see which is preventing upload

[Robin W]

If that plugin is 8 years old, it will be for bbpress version 1, so chances are it will not work with current version

[Barry]

Hey there @wproyal,

Do you happen to be using the GetShopped Support Forums plugin? The reason I ask is I see hooks or functions in the error message you shared as follows:

bbps_lock_to_author

bbps_get_all_premium_topic_ids

The bbps_* prefix is used by the plugin I mentioned (though it’s entirely possible it is also used by other plugins). So, a good starting point toward resolving this could be to temporarily deactivate that plugin, if you can, and see if things clear up.

If that does fix things and you still need this plugin, perhaps a good immediate step would be thinking about what recently changed to introduce the problem (an update either to it or to bbPress itself? A change in some custom code someplace? A settings change?) and then think about ways to roll back.

Of course, you could also reach out to the author/support team for the GetShopped plugin and see if they can offer help with this 🙂

new error on old site? only just installed bbpress?

Hi All,

In the WordPress log file, I am getting error

Hi,

I’m using the setting “Allow guest users without accounts to create topics and replies”, I’d like to remove the comment_author_cookies, comment_author_email, and comment_author_url. I added the code : remove_action( ‘set_comment_cookies’, ‘wp_set_comment_cookies’ ); in function.php, but it’s does’t work. May I know how to remove these cookies in bbpress?

Thanks

[randrcomputers]

@packzap the plugin linked in this thread will fix issue until bbpress’s next release is ready and that should fix it and assume the plugin will no longer be needed.

[packzap]

Yes, the front page of my forum “last post” dates are looking very stale since moving to bbPress 2.6.3. The post dates look to be prior to the “upgrade”. I do not have any page caching plug-ins enabled on these public forums. Manually running “recalculate last activity in each topic and forum” updates the freshness dates correctly.

[johnnyontheweb]

Hello all, I’m using bbpress 2.6.3 with the last version of wp5. I defined some mime types I need on the site, eg the extension .nvn. I noticed that Participants cannot upload these newly defined mime types, why?
Keymasters do it without any problem. When a participant tries, he gets the error “Sorry, this file type is not permitted for security reasons” as it was not permitted. Please help

[baqacreatives]

I am trying to display an image within the content area of a topic,
as illustrated in this image…

I am using bbpress 2.6.3 and WordPress 5.3.2.

Please help.
Thanks

WP 5.2.5
Theme Enfold 4.5.7

Forum roles are added by site admin for access to private forums. Users with participant role get the 404 “Oh, bother” message when they try to log into page containing short code : [bbpress forum-index]. I have tested with all other roles and they access the forums as expected. This issue has been identified with new participants being added to the forums. I am not sure if all prior participants are experiencing the same issue. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

[Robin W]

bbpress just uses WordPress login, so suggest you investigate authentication of WordPress

google around – I got

https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/268665/set-up-wp-authentication-from-external-api

from a google of ‘wordpress login using 3rd party credentials’

[thecraneadmin]

I am still waiting for an answer. Anyone??? Any ideas?? I realize that bbPress always call the core wp-login.php to login, register or reset your password. I know that I can probably add code to wp-login.php but that would be a very bad thing to do as it is a core file and any updates to WP will overwrite your changes. I need a way to intercept the call from bbPress to wp-login.php.

Thanks,
J

I’m also planing to move from Kunean 5 to bbPress. Please share info if you do know migrate tool for this.

[Juha Metsäkallas]

Hello!

I’m not sure, whether I have the same issue or a different one. I have simple forum structure with a forum list and every forum has a topic list. You may take a look at my forum list.

The features

• You don’t need to log in to read.
• The first forum is read-only for all users except the admin.
• Anyone can register and gets write-permission to all forums except the first one (Loginizer and Akismet in use).
• The forum with most topics gets its topics from posts by the plugin “bbPress Topics for Posts“. Despite being old the plugin has worked flawlessly until the most recent update

The issue

• Some of the forums have kept displaying “juuri nyt” (just now) since the update, because some of their topics show the same freshness.

What I have tried

• recalculated everything
• disabled the plugin “bbPress Topics for Posts” and recalculated everything
• changed to the Twenty Twenty theme and recalculated everything

but in vain. Is this caused/related by the bug #3297? Any pointers appreciated.

[Jason Dao]

I’m a newbie, so please be kind. Is it correct that plugins (except ecommerce ones) are not available for wordpress.com sites? Is there any way to install bbpress onto a wordpress.com website?

Thanks.

Hi All,

Is there a way to re-direct users that are logged in and land on the bbpress home location e.g /chat/ and re-direct them to a specific forum.

E.g, logged in users visits mysite.com/chat, and it redirects them to mysite.com/chat/forum/support.

i am using the code below found in the bbpress forums which re-directs guest to another page. It works great.

/**
* Redirect bbPress pages to registration page
*/
function kleo_page_template_redirect()
{
    //if not logged in and on a bp page except registration or activation
    if( ! is_user_logged_in() && is_bbpress() ) {
        wp_redirect( home_url( '/register/' ) );
        exit();
    }
}
add_action( 'template_redirect', 'kleo_page_template_redirect' );

[David]

Hi All,

I am seeking a way to hide/disable the “Insert Link Button” for users in bbpress when creating a post.

Does anyone have a code snippet for this, or know of a way to achieve this?

Thank you

David
