I have a bbPress forum integrated with WooCommerce.
Until a few days ago it was working fine, but now

$uid = bbp_get_current_user_id();

if ( bbp_has_forums( array(
     'author' => $uid
 )) ) :

returns bool(false) regardless of the user or user role.

On a side note, when searching codex.bbpress.org, the results I (don’t) get:

bbp_get_current_user_id – “Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.”
bbp_has_forums – “Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.”
bbp_forums – “Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.”
bbp_the_forum – “Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.”

I understand these are just wrappers for WP_Query, but there are some obviously also forum-specific options. It doesn’t seem like much of a codex. Just saying.

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.

Unfortunately, the problem not solved.
Scheduled topics are published, but appear in the list of topics with the first save date (not with the time of the delayed publication).

Have an idea to use a some outside buffer for publishing. Is there such a remote plugin scheduler? Something like posting via email-just schedule a date in the mail-client. But works for the blog, not for bbpress.

Hi, I imported a vbulletin forum into bbpress.
When I do the repair, I get a blank page for these 2:
– Recalculate the position of each re-entry
– Reset existing users to default forum rules

I tried again and again, always the same result.
How can I solve?
Thanks!

I have two wordpress sites, one with bbpress forum running since 7 years and one is new which is running since 2 years.

I want to migrate forum from old site to new site. But i have checked that post ids of old forum already present in new wordpress site which may conflict.

I tried Export import from WP tool but not working as topics and replies and authors are not mapped properly. Also i am not sure if import can update existing posts as forum if post id is matched while import.

Also tried bbpress import feature but there no way to transfer from bbpress to bbpress

I don’t want to loos any forum, topic, replies and relationship during import.

Thanks,
Pankaj

the templates are in

wp-content/plugins/bbpress/templates/default/bbpress

start with content-archive-forum which is the main forums list, and then you’ll see how the other templates are called

yes, apostrophes are okay now, with same result as before : links do not appear anymore in new topics. i disable the code, links display…

So strange this function is not in bbpresscore, I suppose many of us need it..

Anyway, thank you so much for your help and patience Robin. I spent much time on this without results. I think I’ll just lokk for another system than bbpress for my forum..

Hi All,

I am facing an issue while importing bbpreess forum data to another wordpress bbpress forum.

I have checked that new wordprees setup Post ids are matching with the bbpress forum, topics and replies post ids. So it could lead in conflict.

Is there best way to migrate forum properly with new post ids for forum, topics and replies with proper relationship/linking of forums, topics and replies.

Looking for help Urgently !!

Note: I am using new bbpress Version 2.5.14 and old bbpress version is also 2.5.14

Thanks,
Pankaj

Hallo,

So if anyone have a plugin that can display “related forum topics” or similar topic for BBPRESS, please kindly share. Thanks in advance!.

We have just launched our site. Our site was running very fast in all other sections except bbPress. Each reply will take like 5=7 seconds to post.

What can we do to make our bbPress run as fast as this one we are using for bbPress support?

We have stripped all unnecessary plugins associated with bbPress. The only plugin we keep that is related to bbPress on our site is a notification plugin. It sends out a notification to users when a reply is made to their topic – Does bbPress have this function built in? We could not seem to find this function in bbPress. bbPress has a notification that is sent to all subscribers but not specific to the author of the topic. Am I correct?

Any advice you provide is greatly appreciated.

Well, this thread is pretty old and I have a way how you can enable AMP for bbpress pages.

Before going to enable AMP support you need below things:
– Code snippets plugin
– AMP plugin

Create a new code snippet and add the following code:
add_action( ‘amp_init’, ‘amp_bbpress_init’ );
function amp_bbpress_init() {
add_post_type_support( ‘topic’, AMP_QUERY_VAR );
}

if the forum is set as private, then you will not see topics or replies in the profile for that forum unless logged in.

what theme and other bbpress related plugins are you running?

[oskarlin]

If I’m not logged in to my bbpress forum I can’t see any posts or forums at all which is exactly how I want it to be. But what I can do is see each users profile and his/hers answers on the page of each user:

/forums/users/myname/replies/

…even though I’m not logged in.

Is this a bug or is there a setting I’ve missed out?

Hello,
I already setup a yoast seo pro plugin on my site. now i install and activate bbpress on my site but i am not able to see forum and topic menu in wp-admibn section can you please help me on this.

We are getting notification from yoast seo.
We’ve recently improved the functionality of the Search Appearance settings. Unfortunately, we’ve discovered that for some edge-cases, saving the settings for specific post type archives might have gone wrong.

Please check the archive templates for the following content types: forum, topic.

That looks like an issue with the bbp-messages plugin, which is not part of bbpress, you’ll need to post on their forum

https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/bbp-messages/

[notrandom]

Hi

Im using bbpress with bbp-messages, but the text window on the “send message” is very small. In chrome i can drag it bigger, but i want it to be bigger from standard. Can anybody tell me how to do that ?

Hello there,

I have a problem with pasting links in new topics : they do not display. (They do display normall in replies though)

This is due to trying to inverse order of replies : I used bbpress toolkit for that purpose and the problem happened.
I also tried inverting replies order with this snippet in functions.php file :

function custom_bbp_has_replies() {
$args[‘order’] = ‘DESC’; // ‘ASC’ (Ascending, Default), ‘DESC’ (Descending)

return $args;
}

add_filter(‘bbp_before_has_replies_parse_args’, ‘custom_bbp_has_replies’ );

function custom_bbp_show_lead_topic( $show_lead ) {
$show_lead[] = ‘true’;
return $show_lead;
}

add_filter(‘bbp_show_lead_topic’, ‘custom_bbp_show_lead_topic’ );

the snippet works as far as replies rder is concerned, but then I bump in the same problem, links not displaying in new topics.

Any clue how to invert replies order without this link issue ?

thanks

Not sure what “BBimport” is but I figure it’s the built in importer. As one might expect, I had no success with the v3 importer on Kunena v5.

Any guidance? Not sure how chris72a had success.

Any plans to write a Kunena v5 importer (I *hate* Kunena and Joomla, and *love* WP and bbPress!)

[Robin W]

by default bbpress send one email to the noreply address and bcc’s in the subscibers, so only one email sent.

code to change

add_filter ('bbp_get_do_not_reply_address', 'rew_no_reply') ;

function rew_no_reply ($no_reply) {
	$no_reply = abc@def.com ;
return $no_reply ;
}

You’d think the bbpress coders would have created setting for this by now

the bbpress coders are busy people who can code what they wish to. Not up to us to criticise free software

[rhodesengr]

ok. thanks. What are “individual emails”

Also, is there a reference to how to change the code? I would like to consider that option.

I searched and found some other threads about this issue. One was from 2016. You’d think the bbpress coders would have created setting for this by now. Seems a lot of plugins have problems if you don’t have an enmail address with the website domain but it is very commone to use the built in system, your own pop, or gmail. Then the noreply@yourdomain.com is invalid. Common and forseeable.

[Robin W]

too longer a list for free help from me I’m afraid, but you will probably need my private groups plugin

Private groups

briefly – for master think category, then forums as ‘sub forums’ , threads (nested) are in the bbpress plugin, email per forum post – yes the rest is a mixture of easily doable and a some custom work.

contact me via

http://www.rewweb.co.uk/contact-me/ if you want further help

[Robin W]

bbpress sends an email to the noreply address and bcc’s in the intended recipients.

2 solutions

1. my style pack plugin lets you amend the ‘to’ address (see email subscriptions tab), or you can do this with code, and amend it to a real address on your website.

bbp style pack

2.switch to individual emails – this plugin does that https://wordpress.org/plugins/asyncronous-bbpress-subscriptions

[rhodesengr]

When someone creates a post, the site sends an email to the site’s correct gmail address, the poster , and also “noreply@my-site.com” The emails to “noreply” bounce and gmail gives me repeated notifications of delivery problem because there is no such address.

I can’t figure out where these email are coming from and how to stop sending the notification to the “noreply” address. I don’t see a setting in the bbpress setting about email notifications.

[PDidee]

I was wondering if it’s possible to set up master forums with bbPress. We have a client that has a courses site and would like to setup forums for each course. So this page for example: http://mbmembers.staging.wpengine.com/community-forum/ would be one of multiple “master” forums.

Other items they are looking to implement that may or may not be available through this plugin include:

• different master forums for different courses on site as mentioned above
• each master forum has sub-forums, then threads
• on threads, responses to topic or other responses get nested (saw this as an option and have it enabled but I’m not seeing the replies indented at the moment on the test link above)
• option for people to receive an email per forum post, or a daily digest per that sub-forum
• ability to turn email for each sub-forum on/off – or switch to daily digest vs. individual posts
• exception is Announcements sub-forum – everyone should be automatically subscribed to individual messages email, can change to daily digest, but users CANNOT turn off emails for this sub-forum
• note: it may be wise to have a spot on the My Account page (a tab?) where users can edit their email preferences for all the forums at once
• only admins can start new threads in Announcements sub-forum; other forums anyone can start a new thread
• we are creating a participant directory — the front-end needs to have links to for users to view a participant’s forum posts, or the forum threads they’ve started (currently, these are two separate links)

Any help or info you can provide would be super appreciated.
