can only suggest
It could be a theme or plugin issue

Themes

As a test switch to a default theme such as twentyfifteen, and see if this fixes.

Plugins

If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Then come back

Can someone please help. I have tried almost everything When ever I try to make a new topic I get the ERROR: Are you sure you wanted to do that? Same thing for replying. I can create forums and topics and replies manually but I can’t do it through the website. The issue still happens with the Twenty’s themes. and I also tried removing all other plugins. I am local hosting wordpress 5.2.3 using bbpress 2.5.14 and my website is craftnations.ddns.net (If you want to see for yourself). PLEASE HELP ME!!!

Extend bbPress User Profile with bbPress Add-on for Profile Builder Pro

This is excatly what im looking for, maybe just being to do it for free 🙂

[Anonymous User 17557030]

Hi there,

I’m a fresh out of water BBPress user and I have never coded in my life 🙂

We have just set up a BBPress forum on our WordPress website and we are looking into changing what is displayed in the profile section. At the moment it’s Forum Role, Topics Started and Replies Created.
I would like to create custom fields like Company, Job Title, Area, Email, Phone Number and Website to be displayed there.

First of all, I would need to add these sections in Profile Edit tab. Secondly, find a way to display them on the Profile page.

I have to mention, I have found a way to remove Forum Role, Topics Started and Replies Created by editing plugin file bbpress/templates/default/bbpress/user-profile.php

Also, I have just noticed that when you visit somebody’s profile page, his name is not displayed there, which would be something i would like to be displayed as well 🙂

Have anyone managed to do things mentioned above, and would be willing to share with the class? 🙂

Many thanks,
Dominik

have you activated the style pack plugin and bbpress, as both should be in the settings

WORDPRESS VERSION [Last checked on September 18, 2019 at 9:48 am. Check Again
You have the latest version of WordPress. Future security updates will be applied automatically.]
BBPRESS VERSION: 2.5.14

I am using the bbpress [forum] plugin.
I do not want to use it in its default state. I want to have it maintain my site’s design.
According to what I have read [HERE; https://codex.bbpress.org/themes/theme-compatibility/ ]

to do so requires me to copy both the bbpress and the css directories
from the default folder and paste it or upload
it into the ‘theme’ directory/ folder.

Thing is I am not quite sure if I ought to paste them [ bbpress & css directories] into the wp-config.php folder
& if so where [in the wp-config.php folder] ? Is it Before or after the present info I see there now?

[Robin W]

I’m presuming you are also

WP v. 5.2.2, bbpress v. 2.5.14. WP is bundled with Bluehost. Theme is OceanWP.

?

Hi. What is the expected timing for 2.6?

I recently installed BBPress and was surprised the latest version for installation was 2.5.14. I also get a notice that the plugin “has not been tested with your current version of WordPress.”

Performance/speed is important to me, and last I looked into it 2.6 was supposed to be a big improvement.

[RedPrez16]

WordPress version is 5.2.3
bbPress version is 2.5.14

Hello,
I am having a problem with bbPress. When I go to my forum, my welcome page is in that path. Like it is Welcome > Forum > Forum topic. I do not want my welcome page to be there. I have included a screenshot that will show what I am talking about. If someone can help me out here, that would be awesome.

Thank you in advanced!

How do I set my bbPress forums page as my home page in WordPress?

[Robin W]

pretty sure not, what other bbpress related plugins are you using ?

[Connie]

Maybe I didn’t explain it correctly. This is text below the forum and in Developer Tools, it says the lines of text are coming from “div.bbpas.header.” The first statement is: “There is currently 1 user and 1 guest online.” and the other is, “Activity within the past 24 hours: 3 users and 39 guests.” Is this text coming from bbpress?

[Robin W]

sorry neither of those is native bbpress. Must be another plugin

[Connie]

Why does my members only forum show that there are guests online when there are no guests in the membership site. Also, bbpress info says that there have been 36 guests in the last 24 hours. Anyone with access to the forum has a Participant role. So, who are these guests and where are they coming from? Thanks.

[Robin W]

bbpress expects to see a wordpress user, and if you current app doesn’t do that, then bbpress won’t work – it is hooked at every turn to user_id in wordpress.

best I can offer is

Login with Salesforce

[Robin W]

hmm, without a link all I can suggest is

1. Are you creating them as super sticky ?

2. It could be a theme or plugin issue

If that doesn’t work, also deactivate all plugins apart from bbpress and see if this fixes. if it does, re-enable one at a time to see which is causing the error.

Hello,

my bbpress version is 2.5.14
Wordpress version is 5.2.3

When a topic is created in a single forum, that topic is also displayed in all other forums aswell. So all forums include all the topics. How can I fix it?

I would add the website link, but under construction mode enabled so not accessible

[jkw217]

Upload files to plugin directory -> bbpress folder -> overwrite -> wp-admin panel -> plugins -> disable bbpress -> enable bbpress -> tools -> forums -> upgrade forums tab -> run all

[yaragad]

Thanks, i will try but it will take me a bit, as I need to understand/google some things.

Meanwhile, maybe it is easier if it is possible to use an icon instead. Like this:

bbpress just uses wordpress user, so if your site authenticates to WP, then bbpress will work fine

[kbrennemaneab]

Hello,

We currently have built a website with a custom theme and are looking to add create a community within our website.

Our site architecture dictates user authentication/authorization to content managed through a 3rd party SaaS platform (Salesforce), so users are never hosted within WP. So user authenticates to site via API call to Salesforce, which has a token returned which authenticates to site and authorizes content. My question is has anyone attempted to leverage bbPress with this architecture, adopting the authentication cookie to identify the user in bbPress and subsequent posts?

I have not found any documentation on this approach therefore thought I’d start here. If there’s documentation out there and I’m blind, feel free to give me a nudge. Thanks!

[yaragad]

I changed this in \wp-content\languages\plugins\bbpress-es_ES.po:
msgid “Posts”
msgstr “Publicaciones”

To this:
msgid “Posts”
msgstr “Mensajes”

I cleared cache from WP and cleared Chrome cache, but I still see “Publicaciones” here:
http://www.ffximobile.es/foro/

[shadic108]

Is there a way to set the maximum length of posts, or edit the maximum length of titles? I wasn’t able to find it in the settings, or find any clear answer on google that seemed relevant.

I’m on bbPress version 2.5.14-6684 and WP version 5.2.3.

Thanks!
